I'm 55 and I've had a lot of injuries over the cause of my life and although I've never had any life threatening ones, I doubt I'd survive. My body would be a mess of wounds, and many on top of each other. Not to mention a number of broken bones, a lot of hits to my head, many needing stitches and bleeding like hell and two of them laying me out cold for longer than is good for you. Unless I was in a trauma room, I'd bleed out pretty quickly while unconscious I think. Edit: Someone mentioned electrocution and I've done that a number of times too. Also surgeries. I'm pretty sure I'd die pretty instantly from the chock and multiple traumas. I'd forgot about bruises, I'd be completely blue. The reason for the edit is that I'd wonder what the coroner finding my body would think. 😂 Was she run in a concrete tumbler for 10 hours while simultaneously rolling down a mountain side? What the hell happened here?

Do surgeries count?

I think I would survive. The worst injuries I've had were cuts in my fingers and muscle tears. I shudder to think what every stubbed toe I've ever had happening at once would feel like

Broken wrist falling out of tree, broken nose on playground, fall down 3 stairs onto forehead, several years of skate falls. Should make it through all that with a weeks bedrest. Then I remembered 3 years of ingrown big toenails... dead.

Do I have to survive?

No chance. Considering the dozens of broken bones, multiple concussions, couple stabbings, and single gunshot wound, even half my injuries would be enough to do me in if they occurred all at one.

I think I'd survive. Never had a broken bone or any serious injuries really. I'd just have surface-level wounds everywhere, none with a lot of blood loss, and 2 rolled ankles. It would be unpleasant as hell, but I don't think my life would be in danger.

Fun question! If poison (alcohol or other) counts, I'm dead. If surgeries counts, I'm soon to be dead. If electrocution counts, I'm likely dead (I guess it depends on how grounded I am at the time, because that's a LOT of electricity to take at once). Otherwise, with someone professional help nearby, I'll live... but not if I'm alone. I would not have use of my hands to call for help and would bleed a lot, plus concussion. My blood type can recieve from several other blood groups, so as long I'm in hospital I'm okay. None of my broken bones have been near endangering organs so im not worried about them. Probably blood loss and chock is my biggest concern, and infection from a thousand cuts in the long run. I would hopefully and probably pass out to relieve myself of the pain.

I would crumble from the numerous broken bones and would bleed to death from all the cuts. I'd wager most people would bleed to death.

If surgeries count as an injury, I'm d-e-d dead. If not, then I miiight survive, but I'd be heavily concussed and bleeding out.

@DampSquid@feddit.uk 2026-01-30 11:17
I've had somewhere from 5-7 concussions (I *somehow* don't remember), so no.
-
@Nemo@slrpnk.net 2026-01-30 11:38
Maaasybe but I'd be badly concussed.
-
@Aeri@lemmy.world 2026-01-31 14:23
I've never been severely injured enough for it to be seriously dangerous to my health as far as I'm aware but I would get the shit beaten out of me instantaneously and probably start bleeding from the mouth because I would definitely count getting my wisdom teeth ripped out.

Head trauma alone I'm gone I think.

You be the judge of it: - punched through a tempered, textured, 3mm thick glass, leading to several cuts on a hand and wrist - kicked a glass panel on a door and got a nasty cust on my toe - several instances of cutting myself on different types of thorny bushes - perforation with glasses rim on my eyebrow - severe cut on my other eyebrow, another on the bridge of my nose - broken arm, twice - fall from a 1st floor balcony, landing on a bush, after breaking a cabinet with my back and legs, until finally reaching the ground - hundreds, if not thousands, of small scrapes and bruises - bitten by dogs, leading to deep gouges, on my calves - severe tear on the back of my left hand, with a broken bone, not exposed, leading to surgery - many, many, many sprained ankles and wrists - three pulled teeth plus all the bleeding from losing my baby teeth - minor burns on hands and fingers, from cooking - several nasty cuts from kitchen knives and a perforation by a lobster spike, which led to a severe infection, with a piece of lobster shell stuck underneath a finger nail - a few near choking to death episodes - two electrocussion incidents (230V), for mere seconds

A lot of my worse injuries involve poison or toxicity. The brown recluse would have taken me down if everything was going wrong in my blood at the same time and I couldn't walk
-
@Atlas_@lemmy.world 2026-01-31 09:40
Yes. Haven't even had any really bad scrapes or anything. Some odd I pass out from blood loss (like everyone). Or pain. Also I'm gonna have even more wicked scars on the sides of my fingers. But like, no broken bones and no major trauma is just really survivable.
-
@normalexit@lemmy.world 2026-01-31 11:59
I wouldn't want to live, but I probably would if I got to a hospital quickly.
-
@monovergent@lemmy.ml 2026-01-30 14:58
Counting all injuries to date, I think I would. Probably with a concussion and blood all over me though. My face would be in very rough shape from how much I've picked at it in the past.

@djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2026-01-30 19:18
I'm pretty sure the shock of taking so much damage at once would kill you

Does surgery count? On the early Antarctica expeditions they wouldn't let anyone with an old war injury or surgical scars join, because scurvy can do something similar.
