In what circumstances might you have to go to Hell and stick your arm in a bucket of blood?

Yes, there's a town called Hell in the USA isn't there?

So, if you were making black pudding (or blood sausage as they call it there) in Hell, USA, then those be the circumstances smiley - smiley

Is there a town called Hell in one of the United States (one of the Dakotas perhaps) where it gets very cold? And blood loses heat relatively slowly (again a guess) so you'd put your hand in some blood in a desperate attempt to warm them up.

Great replies, but nowhere near, unfortunately.

A bucket? That's quite specific... I'd have thought survival situations would generally not include having a handy bucket..

Oh, ok:

If you remove your wedding ring in order to commit adultery, a deamon could steal your ring and put it in a bucket of blood, and then take you to Hell (on a quick visit) and make you put your hand into the bucket of blood in order to retrieve your ring in an effort to put you off sinning against you (presumeably) innocent and faithful wife?

To be quite honest, I'd do this to get hold of a Nintendo Wii (which I've promised my son for Christmas and now can't get hold of one)
