When you place your hands in hot water, the nerve receptors in your skin send signals to your brain to register the temperature. However, extreme temperatures can sometimes cause confusion in these receptors, leading to a brief misinterpretation of the temperature. In this case, the intense heat may overwhelm the receptors, causing them to initially register the sensation as cold before accurately perceiving it as hot. Additionally, the initial shock of the extreme temperature change can also contribute to this misperception.
