I don't really get it.

Was the manhole hot because it was in the sun, or from the steam running through the pipe?

If it was from the steam, they're most certainly liable - it should be insulated.

yeah seriously...that sounds dangerous!

Yeah! Anyone over 25 should be using a cane or one of the old-people scooters! :roll:

Most likely from below. There have been problems like this in Boston lately too, although no one here has been hurt. (Not that I know of, anyway) The manhole covers can get VERY hot and even explode high into the air from underground pressure.

yup...

i once tried to warm myself over one during the winter...god that was a bad idea ><
