Diamonds are actually the strongest material, but you can also break it by burning it. Try it and you will see that a hard diamond has turned into many shattered pieces. If you rub it other diamonds, it will only make a little scratch!

No, fire can not break a diamond. It might be able to consume a diamond, because after all it is carbon based.
