Arteries are outbound from the heart...Pressure is greater...
Veinous flow is back to the heart and less pressure...
The girl hit an artery, and what they have said is true, you can bleed out from that just as easy as if she had shot the guy in the pelvic/groin/upper thigh area where the aorta splits into the two major thoroughfares into the legs...
As someone in an earlier thread stated that they hoped for “more” pain as they checked out...There would not be any additional pain as you bleed out, only the pain from the wound, if you keep moving it, all you’ll do is fade away as less oxygenated blood in your body passes into and through your brain to keep you conscious...
Takes about 3-4 minutes...Depending on the size and physical shape the bleeder is...
That was me and I didnt say that. I said, "Anyways, bonus points for a chick hitting the femoral artery and letting the perp bleed out OUTSIDE of the restaurant. I hope his last 2-3 minutes of conciousness while in excruciating pain, that he found Jesus and asked for forgiveness."
Getting shot HURTS (trust me)...getting shot in the knee REALLY HURTS. It was probably just incidental to him that there was ALOT of blood and that he was getting dizzy and sleepy.
Again: We should all hope that he found Christ in his last minutes. And we should all be glad he can no longer victimize the innocents.
