HOW THE FUCK IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE?!?

Because you don't actually Need all your internal organs working for every second of every day.

I mean, a bowie knife to the liver will leave you dead in a couple minutes and bleeding in the lung is probably a death sentence but you still have a couple seconds before your cells run out of energy.

Your blood still holds enough oxygen for a few seconds of life and even when the oxygen is gone you've got some cellular energy in your tissues. As long as you've got most of a brain and spine you could plausibly keep fighting.

Probably regretted it in the morning, though.

>attacker lived for 10 more days

That's the scary part. It's one thing if you keep fighting for another couple minutes but after 24 hours I'd assume you're either dead or going to recover.

Nobody is obliged to cater to your preferences.

now hush, the adults are talking.

carotid hit will black you out in a few seconds. brain brainstem will get you instantly. spine hit will paralyze, if not kill.

no man, you're just sincereposting way too hard. you can sincerepost on Jow Forums but you have to do it right, otherwise you end up sounding like you're doing a shitty monologue you wrote in your bedroom watching the boondock saints

That's more or less what I was getting at. Only CNS is a literal instant fight stopper. I've wondered to what degree do you keep consciousness from a spine hit, do you stay alive and see but since your body is gg you just wait for the blackout from blood loss/heart stopping, or is it an instant blackout.
