    In America, you have safety settings on pool

    Technically they may not have actually boiled. You can get into a hot tub that is 102 degrees and get cooked in 5 minutes I think it is. There is a warning to anyone who owns whirlpools in the book that reads about heat exhaustion. Since the men came out of a hotter sauna, a tub at 105 would still feel cooler, but your still cooking. They would have passed out first.:biggrin_25511:

    i thought that 102 was safe but anything over 104 was danger territory. thats why a couple hotel chains got in big trouble a few years back cause they had there hot tubs at like 105
