Thats a tough one, but I would probably want to burn.

In a fire, I'm more than likely to pass out from heat or smoke first. Underwater, I'm gonna be totally conscious until I die.

actually it is a mind over matter...when you drown you pass out first. you're unconscious when you inhale water

Hrmm, I would rather die the quickest way, so if it was like scorching hot or you threw me in lava, than I'd rather burn.

Lot's of people contemplate drowning and burning to death? That's a scary thought. I'd pick drowning though. I'd have a nicer looking corpse ;)

Definitely drown. I have almost drowned before and I did pass out, and I can't ever imagine it being worse than burning. It wasn't that bad.

I thought it was a well known fact the drowning is one the best ways to die, not the dieing is good or anything, but when you drown, there is no pain, you will quickly pass out, and from there, you will die with no pain, in a fire, depending how hot it is, you will be in a lot of pain for awhile until you die.

Burning is horrificly painful. People chose to jump from the WTC rather than burn. I think people in general will almost always choose the 'ultimate fear' rather than 'ultimate pain'.
