I thought of this moral dillema

There are two options.

  1. You experience a significant amount of pain, 5 minutes later you completly forget about the experience as if you were never in pain at all.
  2. You experience a slightly less amount of pain then option 1 but you don't forget it.

Which one would you choose?
