    Yeah in the experiment that is often referenced; the frogs had to be lobotomised to stop them just jumping out of the pot whenever they felt like it.

      At least in the original experiment, anyway. According to Wikipedia, later Victorian authors claimed it always worked, but modern scientists think that’s huey. Ponds can and do get slowly too hot in nature, so it’d be weird if that was just lethal.
