    Is the boiling frog apalogue true? Stay tuned and find out.

    if a frog is put suddenly into boiling water, it will jump out, but if the frog is put in tepid water which is then brought to a boil slowly, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death.

      Just a heads-up that the original experiment was done with a frog that had its brain removed. Also, a frog put into boiling water will also not jump out since it will be dead.

        Yeah I know this is fake but the funny part is humans are slowly burning themselves to death and half of them don’t realize it.
