    You can survive in a hot tub at much higher temperatures for hours, and people do it because they enjoy it.

    • ?? Are you sure about that? I’m pretty certain that every hot tub at a public facility I’ve been to says to not exceed staying in for more than 20 minutes, and specially mentions to keep it lower if you’re old, have high blood pressure, are pregnant, or under the age of 16.

      Isn’t part of the reason also because it’s easy to get light headed or dizzy and just pass out and drown?

        I’m certain that even the most feeble visitors can withstand 20 minutes and the rest of us for quite some time longer, yes.
