Thousands? As far as I recall the average temperatures of magma vary between 650 and 1200 degrees celcius. :/ Compared to the surface's temperature we can't speak of "thousands of degrees difference". Unless you mean something else or left something out.

But yes, its body seems to be very well adapted to extreme changes in termperature.
