I don't know. I don't know how tolerant other people are, and would have no way to compare.
I think I am more tolerant to pain, but I am not in such a situation often. |

There are some amusing experiments with this, where four people were asked a question (which line is longer, when shown an image of four labelled lines) the average person would... |
