Nemesis (2015-09-15 22:40:42)Probably drowned... that'd be so horrible though.
TheIronMadden (2015-09-15 22:54:43)Probably burned. Being drowned would be like getting choked, and getting water in my lungs would probably be more traumatic for me to experience than being burned.
You won't see me here, but you might find me if you look in the right places.
little5 (2015-09-15 23:01:22)The pain of burning doesn't last for long, since you can't feel anything after the third layer of your skin is damaged I THINK. I'd rather drown. Spilling a hot beverage on yourself is pretty painful. Multiply that pain by, like, 10 and you've got the pain of my mixtape.
Drowning is actually a rather peaceful way to go once the initial pain is over. Either way would be terrifying, but I think I'd rather drown, as the pain of choking on water would be less severe than having my skin melt off in flames.
Water boarding simulates the first initial drowning stage of suffocation and choking on water (which is the worst part), however if you were actually drowning, it would be more likely that you would pass out either from lack of oxygen, or from shock after a deep breath of water.
After running out of air and/or ingesting enough water, the pain ceases as you start to black out...this is essentially the peaceful stage. Of course, that first experience would be very uncomfortable whether you're holding your breath until you pass out, or the pain of your lungs filling up with water (the latter would be very painful); and not to mention the mental terror knowing that you're dying...however I'd still prefer that over burning alive (which also comes with the mental awareness of your upcoming death...or, if you're lucky, a VERY PAINFUL recovery)
I just know there are plenty of near-death-by-drowning victims who claim it felt peaceful, though I don't know how far they got.

oof
Nemesis (2015-09-17 22:53:02)I'd only to choose to drown because of there being less physical pain.

Would you rather be burned to death or drown?
