Would you rather......

I surprised I havn't seen any "Would you rather" questions on OOT. I'm fairly new, so I might've missed em. But here's one that I can't decide on. So out of morbid curiosity...

Would you rather be eaten alive or be burned alive?

For simplicities sake say that they both take 5 minutes to kill you, your eatin alive by a tiger, and your burned on a steak. So.........

EDIT: Lowered to 5 mins.

Hmm, that is tough. I can't decide. In fact i'd say it's a coin flip situation. Heads, for eaten, tails for being burnt.

It's tails.

YESSSSS!!!!!! BACK OF THE NET

Burned for sure. I'd imagine it's only a minute or so of horrible, horrible agony before you go into shock and pass out. Being eaten alive has the potential for a sadist to keep you conscious for as long as possible before he dips a spork into your brain and eats it.

I would imagine being eaten is quicker than 10 minutes....after the initial pain, wouldn't the body start to shut down....and dfift out of consciousness...Then its Adios Amigos!!

K changed it to five, just as long as they both take the same amount of time.

Eaten. I think there's something quite cool about fighting a tiger barehanded, and you'd only get one chance...

Yes, a tiger is a killing machine. If I'm going out I'd rather be fighting and eventually losing than being passive and burned with a pole up my a$$.

I've heard serious burns are just about the most painful thing in the universe, so I'll go with being eaten. Maybe I'll get lucky and he'll eat something important first so I'll die quick.

I always wondered, if they had electricity in Roman times, and they'd electrocuted Jesus, would Christians not cross themselves, but do a little jiggly fit instead?

cmon, I know I'm not alone wondering that.
