Another tragic case was a British boy getting hit by a bouncer(lightly) and just dying.
A person I know talks about how driving bicycles without helmets is very reckless as their mother had someone fall beside them when waiting at a traffic light and just dying. Wasn’t even a bad fall
Meanwhile, other people jump out of a plane with a broken parachute, land in a haystack and escape with a broken leg and some bruises. It’s wild how the human body can be so resilient and fragile at the same time.
I had a professor who spent many years in the thick of battle in the Vietnam war. He said this was one of the hardest things to deal with mentally. One person would survive after getting shot all over and the next person would get the smallest bit of shrapnel in the wrong spot and “just turn off.”
Break a femur and it nicks the femoral artery, dead.
There certainly are ways to reduce the blood flow to survive a trip to the hospital, but if you don’t get blood back in you soon, you just shut down forever.
Well, to be fair you can’t wish you didn’t survive the fall, so that is always going to look away worse. As I type this, it sounds nonsensical but was funnier in my head
When you are a person who is at risk you may. It’s just very uncommon and not reasonable. And people don’t like to wear PPE for the most part. Most people are fine with a reasonably small chance of death.
I mostly thought of it because after eye surgery I had to wear wrap around sunglasses that protected my eyes, but they also looked cool. I didn’t realise how much shit got in my eyes before then, so I just never stopped wearing them. They’ve saved me from tree twigs and all sorts
Getting hit always carries a chance of death.

Or it’s just bad luck. My great uncle died during that war because of engine failure at take off.
Really need to protect that noggin and the rest can heal.
Every body part has a major artery in it.
Get hit in the armpit, dead.
Get hit in the thigh, dead.
Get hit in the liver, dead.

i think some french aristocrats would disagree
Not sure their heads dropping into the basket was a contributing cause.
Well then, that might just be the death of them.
That is called plot armour
Yeah, that’s not common, don’t count on that. Most of the time that you fall from a plane, you’re gonna die.
Yeah, and most of the time when you trip on a curb, you don’t die. Doesn’t mean we can’t talk about the fringe cases.
And LSD?
Most of the time you survive a plane fall, you probably wish you hadn’t

I used to wonder why we don’t wear helmets and safety glasses at all times. It’s because it looks stupid

well that, and it seems a bit overprotective.
