No animals were harmed in the making of this answer.
Biologically, frog has tendency to change the temperature of his/her skin according to the external temperature.
So, the frog adjusted it's body temperature according to the boiling water.
Water temperature rises, again the frog changes it's body temperature.
Gradually, the water temperature became so high that it couldn't tolerate it anymore.
So, it started doing the only thing it could do- Jump from the pan.
But tragedy happens, the frog died.
------------------
Now, the question is- who killed the frog?
You may say boiling water had killed it.
But, what if I tell you that the frog died because of itself only!
Sounds extremely wrong?
Here's why-“The frog can jump from the pan, right at the moment it has fallen into the pan, but it chooses to stay in water because of its obsession with it's tendency of shifting body temperature, which requires too much energy. And, the moment, the water temperature became intolerable, it ran out of energy.”
You may ask why the hell I am telling you this story?
Once I had a friend who was decent in studies, very hard-working and had some paranormal talents in sports.
He got trapped with the friendship of bad people.
Started drinking, started smoking, started…Started behaving like a bad guy.
I tried to make him aware of his situation. (When he was unconscious about what he is doing). But he denied by saying “I will leave all of these activities very soon.
”That “soon” never came.
He ruined his body.
Now, he wants to get out of all these shit but he also knows very well that his occasional drinking and smoking had now turned into an addiction. Getting out of an addiction is not a piece of cake.
Now, again, tell me who is the real culprit- his friends or he himself?

I thought you said no animals were harmed, hahaha : )
I get what you were figuratively trying to convey your lack of involvement in its demise.
