Teen uses 'Swamp Men' move to save self from alligator

[Ratzz]

Wow, y'know, after such an incident it wouldn't be hard to believe that one might dedicate their lives to eradicating that species of animal off the face of the planet.

Good thing he's a better person than that.

How the fuck does someone do this and not instantly pass out from pain and blood loss

You just lost a goddamn arm. Hell, breaking a bone hurts bad enough. Having your entire limb crushed, and the bone totally severed from you body would be unimaginable. How do you just do a manuver like that, force yourself to basically chop your arm off, SWIM with a giant hole in your body and missing limb in bacteria-plauged creekwater, and then just run out of the water calling for help, saying that your arm got bit off?

I mean FUCK. I'd faint the instant I lost my arm. This dude must have an extremely high pain tolerance.

Obviously he'd carry the detatched arm around in a backpack or something.
Then he could use it to bludgeon grizzly bears or paddle up waterfalls with his [I]ubermanliness.[/I]

Shock and adrenaliine I'd guess. I bet he didn't feel it till later. Blood loss depends on the wound. There was a [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Singleton]case[/url] here in California where a guy hacked off a girl's two arms and left her for dead. But the hacking actually pinched the major arteries in her arms and she lived. Maybe the gator's bite was a strong enough clamping force to compress his arteries?

Shock, adrenaline, and a will to live I'd guess.

I can understand that at the point of the attack, but it seems to imply that after he already knew he was safe and got away, he managed to flag down some help casually, as if getting a limb severed is a an incident where it isn't life threatening and is only moderately painful.

The moment your average person would get out of the water in such a condition after the gator got his "prize", they would probably pass out on the spot. Adrenaline helps a lot but it isn't a miracle worker, and it tends to stop working once you "get out of danger", which he clearly would have been by the time he starts saying "Help, my arm is missing!".

Of course the article could be highly simplifying things. For all we know, he could have painfully flailed out of the water, screamed the words help for a good 10 minutes and crawled his way aimlessly and mindlessly to wherever he asked for help before passing out, and before the EMTs got to his location.

He has fracutured many bones, and has had many stitches and staples in his life time!! He is a very tough young man and also very calm and smart about things... The only thing he could think of at the time
was his friends safety and getting out of the water as fast as possible to safety!!! And as for bleeding out he shoved spider webs in the wound to help clot the blood and stuck it between his legs and squeezed...

So you're saying the article is total bullshit?

He needs to get a hook, not a prosthetic arm. Think of the possibilities! Carrying a bucket or eating a sandwich will never be the same...

You probably wouldn't faint, an injury like that probably wouldn't hurt as bad as you'd think immediately. You'd be so pumped up on adrenaline you you'd be a completely different person.

What's with all the "he'll get all the pussy" jokes ? You do realize missing a freaking arm is kind of a huge turnoff for a lot of people right ? :v:

When you loose a limb your veins will cramp together so you won't loose a lot of blood during the first few minutes. Also, when you're high on adrenaline you don't feel pain.
