How much can a human do after being shot? - General

[QUOTE=ButtsexV17;17416333]Depends on what you shoot with. [b]A shot with a .22 isn't going to do much[/b], but a hollow point .40 S&W like I use in my handguns will bring a grown man down to the ground quick.[/QUOTE] That's bull, a shot with a .22 can be just as deadly as a shot from a 50 cal, you can't make generalized statements like that. Just because it's not a very high caliber and doesn't have a lot of kick doesn't mean that it can't kill you; .22 shots have been known to bounce around in the head, only making one entry point and simply going back and forth through the brain hitting the sides of the skull.

[QUOTE=mysteryman;17410764] Cops use pressure/key points in the body like joint to take down perps using neutralizing shots. Shoulder, elbows, knees, feet, hands[/QUOTE] Cops shoot to kill. They aim for the center mass. Otherwise they don't shoot. They can get sued for being "inhumane" if the guy who got shot can "prove" the cop did it on purpose.

Or just wait and die of blood loss.

Thanks guys, after reading all the replies, I had a dream about killing zombies, fuck yeah >:)

[QUOTE=Nikita;17431969]Thanks guys, after reading all the replies, I had a dream about killing zombies, fuck yeah >:)[/QUOTE] what is this

yeah so basically if you're shot anywhere you ain't doing fuck

[QUOTE=StupidUsername67;17410842]Hit B to Respawn[/QUOTE] you mean X PS: ur late

What are you speaking about guys? That's all bullshit, you don't even have to wait for respawn, if you get shot and it hasn't been a headshot, just take cover and wait until your vision gets normal again and then you can keep shooting those motherfuckers like if anything happened.

[QUOTE=mysteryman;17410941]nooooo..... Getting shot =/= death. But like getting shot in your breast plate/ chest = strong chance of death. Hell you can even survive a headshot, most people who commit suicide that way do it via the temple, which is livable actually, i think Kurt Cobain tried and lived that way. What ya need to do is put the gun pointing up tothe roof of your mouth in the mouth.[/QUOTE] No, if you do that this would happen [url]http://www.documentingreality.com/forum/externalredirect.php?url=http://www.theync.com/media.php?name=6884-extraordinary-video[/url]

this is fake?

[QUOTE=Bean-O;17411685]The immediate danger that presents itself to a shooting victim is blood loss. So when it comes to post-impact survival rates it varies greatly depending on the conditions. -Point of impact. Organ hits aren't necessarily the most dangerous (in the immediate sense). People have been hit in kidneys, the stomach, guts, liver, etc. and survived because they lasted long enough to get medical care. They would need transplants and extensive surgery. Getting hit in the heart and living to tell about it is near impossible because of all the blood you would lose immediately. By contrast a leg or arm hit can be much more dangerous than some believe, if the bullet hits a major artery. -Caliber. Some guns do a lot more damage than others. Tons of people have been accidentally hit by .22LR or birdshot and lived to tell about it. The survival rates with calibers such as 30.06, 45-70 Gov't., .50BMG and so on tend to be a lot worse. Even getting hit with a 9mm as opposed to a .45ACP can make a difference. Also in terms of damage guns that penetrate all the way through create more lethal hits because you suddenly have two orifices to bleed out of, but guns that pack a lot of punch and little pierce (such as the .45) will pack more punch and the shock from the impact would stop most opponents from continuing the fight. -Luck of the draw. Some bullets tumble or fragment on impact, some "keyhole" into their target, others just have erratic wound channels. With some calibers, where they go after they enter is totally unpredictable. If you get hit with buckshot for instance there is simply no telling exactly what those pellets will do. If you are very lucky very few will hit major organs or arteries. If you aren't lucky, they will hit almost nothing but. -Willpower. Some people can take it better than others. They can hold out longer with severe injuries. It is never really consistent. Some can even take a few hits without noticing because they are on a huge adrenaline high.[/QUOTE] I knew you would post.

In the 1990s some guy was a gang member and he was doing a trade-off and he got shot 3 times in the head and then he stabbed the other guy he was doing the trade-off with and the guard and was making sure nothing happens, just looks at him wide-eyed and falls into unconsiousness... Why'd ya shoot meh in za head :rant: .... Ima KEEL YOU!!! (Stab*,Stab,Stab*)

O.P. shoot yourself in the head then quickly report back to tell us what happens.

[QUOTE=YoMother;17410600]movies are stupid, you die when you get hit pretty much anywhere. The heart, the lungs, even the bladder Since half you morons don't understand anything I'm gonna explain what I posted. The heart: The heart transport blood through the body. The blood carries oxygen. The brain runs on oxygen. So if the heart doesn't pump you've got about 15 minutes where your body is alive, but you aren't really working too well. The lungs: Oxygen, genius. The bladder: As you probably don't know since you're an idiot, drinking urine is a bad idea. It's toxic. What happens when your bladder is damaged is that urine streams out into your body and gets absorbed into your blood. Piss in blood is pretty bad for everyone, so you basically die. Maybe not that second, but eventually.[/QUOTE] You failed to factor in shock. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_%28circulatory%29[/url]

[QUOTE=BANNED USER;17431622]You haven't a higher than a D in english.[/QUOTE] I could say the same thing about you.

A shot anywhere can kill a man... quite easily real life isnt like the movies

[QUOTE=YoMother;17432659]you tell me where you got those pictures and we'll talk about getting you a psychiatrist and that guy got HIT IN THE LEG see I can pretend I'm yelling over the internet too[/QUOTE] How dumb are you? It clearly says on the picture APACHECLIPS.COM. Also gee I didn't know capslock = yelling, Could of sworn it was emphasis. Yeah he got his in the leg, by a fucking 30mm. Likely sending fragments up into his internal organs, and the hydrostatic shock causing his organs to internally bleed. Psychiatrist? Oh right because looking at images depicting injury for reference and research makes you crazy. :downs: I guess surgeons are all crazy then too. Good god are you ten years old? [QUOTE=YoMother;17432659]The bladder: As you probably don't know since you're an idiot, drinking urine is a bad idea. It's toxic. What happens when your bladder is damaged is that urine streams out into your body and gets absorbed into your blood. Piss in blood is pretty bad for everyone, so you basically die. Maybe not that second, but eventually.[/QUOTE] Urine is sterile inside your body. It's not until it's been outside, stagnant for hours it gets infested with bacteria/viruses. Even in longterm the mortality rate is rather low since we have a thing called dialysis and organ repair/transplantation. Getting shot in the heart and lungs isn't instantly lethal either, if shot in the heart yes you will rapidly bleed out and be unable to circulate blood, however as so long there's oxygen in your blood stream you will still be able to function for up to a minute depending on how major the wound is. Long term though there's no proper treatment so the mortality rate is very high. Lungs can be treated by controlling the bleeding and sealing the wound so air can get in but not get out of the wound. Even getting shot in the BRAIN isn't always lethal. The only part necessairy for sustaining cardiovascular, circulation, and breathing is the medulla oblongata

It's scary how effective guns are on killing people..

To answer your question OP, let me come up with an educated example: the person being shot has elevated adrenaline resulting in increased pain tolerance, and is being hit by 5.56x45 NATO FMJ. the round used in most assault rifles serviced in most NATO countries. Also incase you don't know, the feeling of being shot has been described by many to be strong blunt trauma equivalent to getting punched real hard, the area is then really weak as if you just did a heavy workout and burns as if it were on fire. Lower leg: Minor aside from limited movement and bloodloss (which can be stopped by bandaging/suturing). Movement obviously being more limited if the bone is shattered (which is what splints are for) Upper leg: Increased movement limitation. Bloodloss risk is elevated since your upper leg contains more major veins and arteries. Lower torso: The organs in this area do not pose immediate life threatening danger if damaged. Pretty much the same as the upper leg aside from organs Upper torso: The lungs requires medical attention within a few minutes atleast, the usual treatment is packing the wound with medical dressing and sealing it airtight, usually done by wrapping it in plastic film or using a flutter valve. The heart is a life threatening injury requiring immediate medical attention. The mortality rate is usually very high since there's no proper treatment and rapid blood loss. The liver requires medical attention rather soon due to rapid blood loss. The rest of the organs in the area are not immediatly life threatening. Blood loss and movement limitation are obvious. Arms: Pretty much the same as the legs Neck: Bloodloss/asphyxiation are the primary concerns here, would limit movement to the head and neck. Head: Minor unless it hits your brain/spinal cord

If your shot like lets say in the bicep then as time goes on after you heal up your muscles degrade because the muscle was torn out of your body by extreme force, you will end up with a scar and become weaker in that arm.

Has Yogendra Singh Yadav been mentioned yet? INCOMING COPY PASTA [quote=Cracked article]Who Was He? Yogendra Singh Yadav was a member of an Indian grenadier battalion during a conflict with Pakistan in 1999. Their mission was to climb "Tiger Hill" (actually a big-ass mountain), and neutralize the three enemy bunkers at the top. Unfortunately, this meant climbing up a sheer hundred-foot cliff-face of solid ice. Since they didn't want to all climb up one at a time with ice-axes, they decided they'd send one guy up, and he'd fasten the ropes to the cliff as he went, so everyone else could climb up the sissy way. Yadav, being awesome, volunteered. Half way up the icy cliff-o'-doom, enemies stationed on an adjacent mountain opened fire, shooting them with an RPG, then spraying assault-rifle fire all over the cliff. Half his squad was killed, including the commander, and the rest were scattered and disorganized. Yadav, in spite of being shot three times, kept climbing. When he reached the top, one of the target bunkers opened fire on him with machine guns. Yadav ran toward the hail of bullets, pitched a grenade in the window and killed everyone inside. By this point the second bunker had a clear shot and opened fire, so he ran at them, taking bullets while he did, and killed the four heavily-armed men inside with his bare hands. Meanwhile, the remainder of his squad was standing at the top of the cliff staring at him saying, "dude, holy shit!" They then all went and took the third bunker with little trouble. For his gallantry and sheer ballsiness, he was awarded the Param Vir Chakra, India's highest military award. Unlike the Medal of Honor, the Param Vir Chakra is only given for "rarest of the rare gallantry which is beyond the call of duty and which in normal life is considered impossible to do." That's right, you actually have to break the laws of reality just to be eligible. It has only been awarded 21 times, and two thirds of the people who earned it died in the process. It was initially reported that Yadav had as well, but it turns out that they just mistook him for someone less badass. Or they just figured no real human being could survive a broken leg, shattered arm and 10-15 fresh bullet holes in one sitting.[/quote]

[QUOTE=YoMother;17443996] [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine#Hazards[/url] [/QUOTE] Uh gee you kinda do have a fucking gunshot wound for the majority of that urine to leak out of. Even if it does mix with the blood, that said blood would just bleed out of your body. Any remaining would be minimal and removed by your kidneys. You're just making assumptions based around your limited knowledge of the human anatomy. Also those said treatments aren't only availible at hospitals, basic first aid kits contain them. 13? Go back to bed, kid.
