That isn't what your poll asked. It says roll around in the snow for 1 minute at 15°F or sit in the sun at 45°C with no water for 25 minutes.

Rolling in snow for 1 minute at 15°F really wouldn't be a big deal, even for me and I don't like cold weather. Subtracting another 5 degrees and being wet and in a bathing suit would still be doable. Sitting in the sun at 45°C for 25 minutes with no water could be life threatening.

So yeah, I would choose rolling in the snow.

The thing is that I wouldn't even "suffer" in option B. I suppose my body is unusually well adapted to heat but not cold. My fingernails go blue anytime I go outside here in winter (temperature 3-5°C) even with 4 layers and a hat on. Somebody told me that earlier, and said I had to be careful as it's not far from hypothermia.

A dry 41°c this past summer in Las Vegas wasn't bad at all. My family sat by the pool and drank, and the outdoor patios were full of people eating lunch. Saunas and steam rooms are often hotter than 45°c and it is not uncommon for people to spend 25-60 minutes in either without water.

I think 'A' would be more uncomfortable but still not that big of a deal. Both dares are pretty weak IMO.
