you're so wasted outside of law

I hadn't clocked the imprecision of ghost of hucks's question.

You are quite right that if we are talking about the Monty Python Holy Grail body collector's definition of death ('I'm not dead yet!'), then I would favour the freezing water.

If we are talking Norwegian parrot level of definitely being dead, I'll stick to the boiling water option.
