When you fall and hurt yourself they'll use hot water to massage you. Probably i guess.

Skating on thin ice breaks the ice, having you fall into the lake, so you have to take a HOT bath in HOT water to warm up, then your parents yell at you for not checking the ice before skating.

Originally in the 18th century it was called *ss skating , people used to skate on their bums, but there were too many ***eholes clowning around , many injuries, many people got piles.
Everybody suffered from numbbum....and eventually they installed a hot water swimming pool next to the *ss skating rink, which combatted numbbum and people would sooth their butts for a while and then continue *ss skating.That is where the term 'skating on thin ice gets you in hot water' came from..But it was more *ss than class...
But then the ice melted too soon from all the hot*sses and the people started getting roasties because the ice was too thin...then they decided to put skates on their feet and ice skate.
It turned out to be very successful , but learners still *ss skate regularly....

I don't want to think that everyone who has answer this question is an idiot but, here it is When YOU do BS (things people warn you NOT to do) It can land you in all sorts of trouble... That's what the metaphor skating on thin ice is (The B.S.) and getting into hot water is (the trouble you in when your caught) How are these people giving advise when it sounds like they've barely finish H.S.

Skating on thin ice means you are about to get yourself into trouble if you keep on running your mouth about something you should not be talking about,the hot water part comes after you have done this.Punishment,of course!

When you mix your metaphors.
The idioms mean basically the same thing: Skating on thin ice means you're going to get into trouble while getting into hot water means you are in trouble.

If the ice is thin, then it must not be cold enough for it to be thick. So the water beneath the ice would be relatively hot compared to a situation where the ice is thick, due to a colder temperature.

the friction the skating on the ice causes... can melt the ice... however... I do not think the water would change temp. Basically it's just a saying parents give you as a warning... keep up what your doing wrong, and you'll be punished. Stop it now, and you'll be safe.

I equate thin ice with trouble....Skate on thin ice and get stuck in the freezing water and you have a serious case of hypothermia. You'll be hospitalized and I hope you make it...tons of doctors bills...risking the life of those that will rescue you and BOY...will your loved ones be upset...Now is it worth it?

The ice breaks from the hot water and then you are burning up.

because the hot water is melting the ice and you should probably never skate on ice that is melting
