How hard is it to over heat o2 sensors?

I took the car to get tuned today and the guy told me my o2s might be melted since i blew my cats out with backfiring. a lot of melted, fist sized chunks came out.i hope they aren't melted but i just wanna see.

im talking about the sensor itself. the part inside the exhaust. the one that actually sees exhaust gases. i wouldnt think it would be that easy to melt would it?
