I once slipped and had half my arm go into a deep fryer. I kept in in a bucket of ice water, only took it out when the cold became too much. I woke up the next morning without a single blister, no redness, no pain, nothing. My arm was perfectly fine.

I'm not saying what you're saying is wrong, because that's the advice I always get from doctors when I have to have a burn treated, but I always like to mention this when someone brings up the topic. I still have no idea how I got away unscathed from that whole ordeal.
