honestly, something doesn't quite add up here.

Tom fills a kettle with water, Dick plugs in and switches the kettle on. Harry puts his hand inside the water while it's still cold enough, until a stage where it's getting unbearable, he shouts to Tom and Dick, "The Water is Hot! The Water is Hot, turn off the plug!!" Of Course Tom and Dick did not respond, and Harry kept his hand in the water.

So why doesn't Harry removes his hand from the kettle instead of leaving it inside the water , and keeps complaining as the water gets hotter? Does he want to wait till the water is boiling and his hand thoroughly cooked before he removes it? or do something about his situation before it gets worse?
