Go-to go with the freezing to death. Hopefully you can just curl up and go to sleep. That should work but burning is considerably worse, you can't sleep through that, if you're still alive after your skin is gone, you've prob burnt your throat and mouth, if for some miracle you make it through that you'll probably die in the next 3-5 days from infection or pneumonia, but if you're tough, now comes the debriefing, where they use a small power washer to blast all the dead skin off and clean it up.

It's better to be freeze than burned. See when you freeze, the entire body including nerves go numb to the point where you can't feel it then eventually the rest of your organs and body follows with it and then you eventually pass out and die from hypothermia. People who gets burned by fire their appearances changes entirely so the point of recognition.

Freeze, it's actually not that bad. After you hit a certain point you feel warm and comfortable and then go to sleep and never wake up. burning alive would be torture for a very long time

I think burn. It is quicker. Freeze is very slow, but also less painful. I mean if I had to go out. I would go out with a bang/as a ball of fire.

Freeze. You begin going number and then begin loosing consciousness. Basically, you go to sleep.

As a girl, my own mother was severely burned in a house fire. She described what it was like to literally have your body being "on fire" to me just once. It was something that I never wanted to hear again.

BossThe2nd · Answer

I'd rather freeze to death.
I've read that freezing is actually kind of peaceful because you eventually lose the perception of cold and kind of become delirious, so at least you don't have to think about the fact that you are dying.

That's something, I guess.
Burning just sounds all around awful.

AviatorTom · Answer

Freezing results in hypothermia, where your organs shut down over a period of time, your senses dull, and your brain shuts down, so you don't really feel much, no pain. You basically go to sleep and die.

Burning, though quick, would be extremely painful.

Nightroads · Answer

Been in multiple situation i has heading in the direction of freezing. Gave me time to think and come to terms with it. The one fire i was in i had no time to think and even if i did the pain was to great to get a thought in edgewise. Luckily i made it out of all situations alive. But I'd rather freeze. Out of all ways drowning was the most peaceful. Once your lungs fill its like floating in a womb as a baby and drifting off to sleep. Drowning was the closest i have come to dying.

genericname85 · Answer

freeze. cause freezing is really not all that painfull. people lost limbs not even noticing tha they got frostbite. sure it's not pleasant but certianly more bearable. on the opposite end: did you ever hear of someone losing their hand cause they just kept it in a fire too long? no. that shit hurts so much that you normally pull out before that happens xD

Freeze. I want to die in the exact way I last looked. Also, burning is scary, I’ve gotten burned in my lifetime and it’s not fun. I can’t imagine being burned while body! I can barely take a small burn. No way no way.

GoldenCage · Answer

Freeze to death.. pain will go numb, I'll loose sensation, and I'll fall sleep before I die peacefully

MCheetah · Answer

Burn. It's quicker, you'll feel nothing once your pain nerves are melted, and its over in under 30 seconds.

rcljr · Answer

If you freeze to death, hypothermia puts your body into a euphoric state and you slowly drift away, burning to death is excruciating agony every step of the way.

Still-alive · Answer

there's pretty much only one right answer here. if you prefer to burn to death here then wow... you are nuts

NamerOfStars · Answer

Freeze. It's not nearly as painful, and in the end, as nerve tissues die, it actually feels kinda warm. Still not fun, though.

You become hypothermic, and go unconscious, no pain.

Redstang88 · Answer

Freezing is painless, you just go to sleep and don’t wake up. Burning does not sound pleasant

Twalli · Answer

When freezing eventually your body shuts down before you are dead. So the pain isn't the last thing you feel.

Jerre · Answer

Freeze to death. You eventually fall asleep and die in your sleep. Hardly any pain like the immense pain fire would cause.

Wise4myage · Answer

Your just cold when you freeze to death. Burning to death would be way more painful.
