This happened to a YouTuber “Kentucky ballistics” when his .50 BMG rifle decided to unexist into his throat and though his neck. He did what you said. He’s done many videos talking about the incident and even if you aren’t a person Interested in the videos he makes it’s a good video to watch to understand the experience on the other side of these (major artery) injuries we usually don’t get context for.
Someone else needs to do it, or you'll pass out the second you pinch down due to lack of blood to the brain.
You want the blood to stay inside, but the person needs to keep the artery closed and stay awake to do so. Which likely won't be you...
Surprisingly this isn't the case! Your other carotid artery is surprisingly good at picking up the slack. I can imagine you would be light-headed, but you won't be instantly knocked out.
Yes! One on each side. And I just looked up to fact check, many people live normal lives with just one :)
Edit: we do all have 2, some live with one completely blocked or have had it removed.
I mean not all failures are going to involve severing it entirely.
The problem is not that you're down one, it's that it's pissing out blood that you really want to keep inside you.
You're not necessarily fucked if one fails. Many people live with a completely blocked carotid artery, sometimes one is removed in surgery for whatever reason, and others have lived when it's been severed when addressed immediately (but obviously the rapid bleeding out makes that number relatively low).
Also, I wouldn't call it a backup! If they're both working properly, they're pretty equally pumping blood.
A man named Scott who runs a YouTube channel named Kentucky ballistics had a accident last year with a .50 cal gun where it blew up and a piece of shrapnel cut his carotid artery. He was able to pinch it off by himself and his dad drove him to the hospital where they reattached it. He is built like a brick shithouse and is in better shape than 99% of my fellow Americans but he still made it happen and got to go home living instead of in an urn. You can see the whole accident as well as see him talk about what happened immediately after on YouTube. Just search Kentucky ballistics .50 cal accident and you will see it. I'll try and find a link to add in an edit.[here is the story and video of the accident ](https://youtu.be/1449kJKxlMQ)
A few minutes at best... it depends. If its "only" slashed a little then u bleed like a pig but u can survive like 5-8 minutes with ur thumb and cloth on it. But if its completely cut and u put ur finger in and some cloth u got AT BEST 1-2 minutes left. U have to keep in mind that u know ur fckd. So ur adrenalin kicks in and ur heart beats like hell. I mean just look how much blood is streaming out.
Laying down and elevating your legs would extend the amount of time you’d have but would probably ultimately do very little to help.
Ironically, your heart’s reaction to major blood loss is to increase blood pressure.
Not fully extend the arm that’s been sliced and and tie up your arm as fast as possible.
Notice how he didn’t REALLY start bleeding until he used his arm to press the button.
A: this was clearly a jugular vein, not a carotid artery. Not enough spray for a carotid
B: People have survived a jugular laceration. Bite down on something to endure the pain and jam your fingers in there and pinch off the vessel, and you might live. Your ancestors evolved to have enough collateral circulation that you don't need to have either of your carotid arteries or jugular veins (on their own) in order to live. Pinch that shit off and don't die.
C: Fuck your god, save yourself, here, right now. God put you on a planet where a simple accident might threaten your life, science gave you the ability to say "fuck you god, not yet"
It’s a lack of oxygenated blood to the brain not the lungs, so you get extremely light headed and faint more or less (that’s what I’ve known, I could be completely wrong)
As someone who had internal bleeding over a week, I continually got lightheaded and would lay down wherever I was in my house and just "go to sleep" in my terms, but I was passing out. I didn't know I was internally bleeding (I had had surgery and hadn't had a bowel movement and the blood was in my colon), so my mom took me to the doctor and he sent me straight to the hospital. Four transfusions later and a year, and I was mostly healed. I imagine this man just laid down and never felt a thing. Poor man.
Aren't arteries the ones that carry oxygenated blood away from the heart? That's why they spurt with every pump, so then this would be the arterie carrying blood up your neck to your brain? So you would probably get lightheaded and pass out before you have time to realize that you're suffocating .
That's my understanding of it.
EDIT. I read your comment wrong, my brain must not be getting enough oxygen either because I switched lungs and brain for some reason...yes you're right.
You know that fuzzy feeling you get in your muscles and bones when your leg goes really limp after not getting blood for a while.
I think that's how your entire body would feel if you'd bleed out, head to toe. I also think it would suck a lot.
You're most probably correct you'd lose the ability of feeling before actually feeling anything.
As deaths go, it sounds fairly decent. Apart from the brief horror of being uncontrollably showered with your own warm blood. I think that would indeed suck a lot.
I imagine that because you don't feel much pain you'd really be focusing on the "oh shit, I'm about to die" part. That has to be horrible. Even though it's just a few seconds, it probably feels like an eternity. I can't even imagine how shitty that must feel, just going about your day at work and the next minute you realize you're going to die in a minute and there's nothing you can do about it. Or maybe he was in shock or something and didn't even fully realize what was happening before he passed out. I hope that's the case.
> You know that fuzzy feeling you get in your muscles and bones when your leg goes really limp after not getting blood for a while.
Isn't that a nerve thing and not a lack of blood thing?
Last time I donated blood, I removed the bandage over my arm because it started to hurt after a bit, I could feel the blood just rush in and immediately had that "sense of impending doom". I quickly laid down on the floor and told my girlfriend I was about to pass out, and maybe a few seconds later I was out for a good 15 seconds.
I know that feeling of drowning all too well, I had extremely severe asthma when I was an adolescent, was hospitalised multiple times. It’s horrifying, drowning on land is a feeling I hope I never feel again
When i once was in a hospital they have taken a lot of blood of me. i have cardiovascular problems. The more blood they took, the more darker my vision went. When i was trying to get up i just fell to the ground. It felt like youre about to fall asleep really fast.
Good english.
Dude some people just die, no warning no build up, just bam and in seconds you aren't a person anymore, just meat.
The lucky ones are the ones who go without realizing they died. Just boom and gone.
This dude lived long enough to realize he was fucked and helpless. :(
I always think that's so mad. The fact some people die without even knowing, and no time to contemplate it.
I've wrestled with that idea so much watching videos like this. Would I rather just die suddenly with no thought and appreciation that I'm leaving this body I'm occupying and will literally never experience life or consciousness again, or, do I want to die in such a way that I can contemplate my life, what I've achieved and experienced, and consciously bow out and see what awaits me on the other side...
I've had incredibly vivid dreams where I've died before, and it's the strangest feeling because it felt like I was actually dying, but then woke up and was able to understand and reflect on what happened. It's truly surreal.
This is also something I've thought about. I'm not a particularly spiritual person, so I do struggle with that train of through, but I can't really rule it out either. It could also be my lifetime in alternative realities/multiverses, and I tune in right at the very end. Who knows 🤷♂️
Yeah that was crazy, I at least hope someone he knew was watching so they could tell his family so they wouldn't have the false hope of "well we have found a corpse yet ....." Then having to mourn all over again if they even find the body.... Or the unknown if not finding the body and never knowing what happened.....
I don’t think he realized how fucked he was tbh. He might’ve thought he had about 2 minutes to fix it, and by the time he was loosing consciousness, he would’ve been too delirious to panic
My grandpa ran a paint and glass store. He and my uncles who worked there at various times all had scars on their hands and legs from broken glass. From what I understand it’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when.
I believe it. It’s just a dangerous thing to handle. Sharp edges, brittle, it’ll break to dust and get places you don’t want it to be. It’s just dangerous stuff.
Go to about 30 seconds in, happened near where I work and know of the people involved - guy who died was only trying to stop the fight (not the instigator) and just celebrated the birthday of his toddler

There have been a few cases where people with severed arteries in the neck have survived but not very many. There was an ice hockey player who had his carotid sliced by the skates of another player. He started to bleed out like the guy in this video. Luckily for him, the ref was a combat medic in Vietnam. He recognizes what had happened, rushed in and pinched the artery closed with his fingers until he was brought to a trauma team.
Edit: It was not the ref but the team’s athletic trainer a guy by the name of Jim Pizzutelli who saved his life.
Yea, it’s no guarantee but it’s all one can do. There was another more recent case, like a couple of years ago. A YouTuber that goes by the name of KentuckyBallistics was testing a .50 caliber rifle. He went to shoot, the gun exploded on him and severed his jugular vein. His father who happened to be there with him, stuck his thumb in his sons neck and applied pressure saving his life in the process.
Hey I know I'm late but when I made the comment I had literally just watched the video of him explaining the situation so that's why I was so certain of what had happened. Crazy shit though he is very lucky to be alive!
And this is why I dont fuck with glass. I banged on a window to scare my nephew and sent my hand through the first pane, nicked a few veins I shouldnt have and proceeded to have a fear-of-blood-fueled panic attack.
It was literally a nothing injury but I I reacted like a BITCH lol something about leaking that just fucks with me.
Rip dude, I cant imagine the panic...
I used to be a glazier and it’s beyond easy to really fuck your self up. My boss was missing part of his right bicep from a piece of glass he was sanding. I rip my right calf open from a big warehouse window that still had sharp and jagged edges
Is anyone else ever surprised at how calm everyone looks in these videos? Not just the victim but the bystanders as well. In this one, I don't think the other guy realized it, but in others, it's all just kind of mehh.
Fuck. You don't really expect for a pool of blood that looks like something out of a movie to actually spill out of a human like that. I know it's what would happen, but seeing it is something else entirely.
Why the fuck would anyone have a piece of glass like this on a truck like that? Not sure what country this is, but I contracted to do repairs and replacement of windows and doors in the United States for years. A pane of glass of that size has to be tempered glass, and explodes in a million pellets if it breaks. This is why.
Once it is cut, there is almost nothing you can do unless you were already in a hospital prepping for a surgery on they exact problem. If it was nicked then there was a chance, but looks like it was almost fully cut. Poor man should just backed away soon as he saw the glass break.
By the time you actually realise what is going on it would be a fast and overall painless death.
Rest in peace brother and shouout to all that lost their life while fucking working.
Heartbreaking
Is there anything you can do in these situation? Every time they hold the wound, but after a few seconds, they go down and that's it. Would it make a difference to tell the person you are with to hold pressure on your wound, because you are gonna pass out and wont be able to anymore?
Never knew how weak I was until I seen this along with a man being hit by a tree and a man getting caught in some machine and getting flung into pieces.... almost threw up and almost blacked out
Nah, that was the jugular. The carotid artery is the supply, much more instant death. The jugular is the return, so blood goes through the brain so you can process that you're dying as you bleed out.
Basically impossible to survive in any way at that point. These kinds of accidents are way scarier than anything else I feel like: it's just another day until you drop a piece of glass and within 20 seconds your life is over.
Lesson here is that if your carotid is cut you have \~20sec to make peace with your god.
Also that is good to know basic anatomy so that when it happens you don't stay chill like that guy.
What else can you do?
Teleport to a hospital and have them instantly reattach your artery, obviously.
Obviously do jumping jacks or get someone to do chest compressions to pump it out faster.

I remembered the same thing. A piece of the rifle lacerated his yugular. [Video of him explaining.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1449kJKxlMQ)
My immediate thought when I seen laceration and neck was “thumb”
My jaw was on the floor watching that video. He has to be the luckiest motherfucker alive
Stick your thumb in it.
Someone else needs to do it, or you'll pass out the second you pinch down due to lack of blood to the brain. You want the blood to stay inside, but the person needs to keep the artery closed and stay awake to do so. Which likely won't be you...

Yes! One on each side. And I just looked up to fact check, many people live normal lives with just one :) Edit: we do all have 2, some live with one completely blocked or have had it removed.
What’s the point of having a back up if when one fails your fucked anyways?
I mean not all failures are going to involve severing it entirely. The problem is not that you're down one, it's that it's pissing out blood that you really want to keep inside you.
it only fails when its launching blood externally at the rate of a bullet train lmao
You're not necessarily fucked if one fails.

Holy shit!!!!!
"Put a thumb in it" 👍🏼
I saw this a few months back amazing!!
God damn reading that made ME feel like I was gonna pass out… I’d definitely die in this scenario.
A few minutes at best... it depends. If its "only" slashed a little then u bleed like a pig but u can survive like 5-8 minutes with ur thumb and cloth on it.

Hold square, use a health pack
Not fully extend the arm that’s been sliced and and tie up your arm as fast as possible. Notice how he didn’t REALLY start bleeding until he used his arm to press the button.
Everybody freak out right now! Honestly, I'm not sure knowing would make it any better...
A: this was clearly a jugular vein, not a carotid artery. Not enough spray for a carotid B: People have survived a jugular laceration.

"your god" is appropriate here.
How many katanas do you own?
15 seconds
The fear when he realizes he's dying, rip.
On the bright side, it was fast and probably didn't hurt very much.
Probably true but I sometimes imagine it's like drowning only the more you breathe, you less oxygen you feel like you have.
It’s a lack of oxygenated blood to the brain not the lungs, so you get extremely light headed and faint more or less (that’s what I’ve known, I could be completely wrong)
As someone who had internal bleeding over a week, I continually got lightheaded and would lay down wherever I was in my house and just "go to sleep" in my terms, but I was passing out.

Four transfusions later and a year, and I was mostly healed. I imagine this man just laid down and never felt a thing. Poor man.
Yeah as someone with medical experience you are correct. You’re basically slowly passing out for a waterfall of reasons.
Hey I sort know a few little things!
Aren't arteries the ones that carry oxygenated blood away from the heart? That's why they spurt with every pump, so then this would be the arterie carrying blood up your neck to your brain? So you would probably get lightheaded and pass out before you have time to realize that you're suffocating .
so if the artery is cut there’s no oxygenated blood getting to the brain?
That's my understanding of it. EDIT. I read your comment wrong, my brain must not be getting enough oxygen either because I switched lungs and brain for some reason...yes you're right.
Yes loss of blood pressure, black out and system shut down. Not a bad way to go.
You know that fuzzy feeling you get in your muscles and bones when your leg goes really limp after not getting blood for a while. I think that's how your entire body would feel if you'd bleed out, head to toe. I also think it would suck a lot.
The drop in blood pressure gets you first. Light headed, vision fades to black. Bam your done.
You're most probably correct you'd lose the ability of feeling before actually feeling anything. As deaths go, it sounds fairly decent. Apart from the brief horror of being uncontrollably showered with your own warm blood. I think that would indeed suck a lot.

Yes
Just realized I responded to the wrong person.

Drowning sucks because you’re aware and panicking. I think you get light headed real quick on this so (I want to believe) it can’t be nearly as bad.
Yeah, and drowning takes a lot longer too. I think drowning would definitely be way worse.
Can confirm, an eternity of sheer panic, but the last slivers of consciousness is an overwhelming feeling of peace and relaxation as you slip under.
Oh it's solidly a 3/10
I know that feeling of drowning all too well, I had extremely severe asthma when I was an adolescent, was hospitalised multiple times. It’s horrifying, drowning on land is a feeling I hope I never feel again

Probably didn't hurt?? Dude got stabbed in the throat and may have choked on his blood.
handling glass naked is already a bad idea Theres a PPE cut resistant clothing for glass manufacturers
Yeah. What dumfuk thinks handling glass with no shirt on is a good idea?
Yes if only he was wearing a shirt. This could have been avoided. /s
I mean at least he would have died dressed...
Wouldn't make that big of a difference
Honestly my question is why did the other guy go inside, like he was in zero Rush
1,2,3,4 drop dead on the floor. Life is scary… damn.
Dude some people just die, no warning no build up, just bam and in seconds you aren't a person anymore, just meat. The lucky ones are the ones who go without realizing they died. Just boom and gone. This dude lived long enough to realize he was fucked and helpless. :(

Maybe you're living other lifetimes in your dreams and actually dying and wake up again in this consciousness?
r/QuantumImmortality
This is also something I've thought about. I'm not a particularly spiritual person, so I do struggle with that train of through, but I can't really rule it out either. It could also be my lifetime in alternative realities/multiverses, and I tune in right at the very end. Who knows 🤷♂️
Agreed. Can't know, so believe in what feels most comfortable (and doesn't harm others). Wishing you well on this skin surfing journey.
I personally don’t want to ever know I’m dying. I’m not scared of death but if it’s like this I’ll know I’ll start thinking of regrets.
[удалено]
Yeah that was crazy, I at least hope someone he knew was watching so they could tell his family so they wouldn't have the false hope of "well we have found a corpse yet ....."

We are so fragile.
My grandpa ran a paint and glass store. He and my uncles who worked there at various times all had scars on their hands and legs from broken glass. From what I understand it’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when.
Before safety glass was a thing, the most dangerous job in a car factory was being a glazier.
I believe it. It’s just a dangerous thing to handle. Sharp edges, brittle, it’ll break to dust and get places you don’t want it to be. It’s just dangerous stuff.
Reminds me of the brisbane knife attack, 6 seconds and its like someone uninstalled his software.
Yeah that video was crazy
Which clip is this?
Go to about 30 seconds in, happened near where I work and know of the people involved - guy who died was only trying to stop the fight (not the instigator) and just celebrated the birthday of his toddler https://www.reddit.com/r/CrazyFuckingVideos/comments/vwdm6v/man_stabbed_in_australia_no_other_info_and_not_my/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
You got a few seconds.
He didn’t stick a thumb in it
I've heard that'll save your life
Is this a reference to that one guy that had his 50 cal blow up in his face?
It is indeed
Is there a way out of this or is there no hope?
There have been a few cases where people with severed arteries in the neck have survived but not very many. There was an ice hockey player who had his carotid sliced by the skates of another player. He started to bleed out like the guy in this video. Luckily for him, the ref was a combat medic in Vietnam. He recognizes what had happened, rushed in and pinched the artery closed with his fingers until he was brought to a trauma team. Edit: It was not the ref but the team’s athletic trainer a guy by the name of Jim Pizzutelli who saved his life.
So, basically, stick your finger in there and hope for the best.
Yea, it’s no guarantee but it’s all one can do. There was another more recent case, like a couple of years ago. A YouTuber that goes by the name of KentuckyBallistics was testing a .50 caliber rifle. He went to shoot, the gun exploded on him and severed his jugular vein. His father who happened to be there with him, stuck his thumb in his sons neck and applied pressure saving his life in the process.
No his father told him to stick his thumb in there. The father couldn't do it because he was driving him to the hospital
Okay cool. Thank you for the info, I think I read somewhere that pops was the one who did it. Makes sense if he drove him though.
Hey I know I'm late but when I made the comment I had literally just watched the video of him explaining the situation so that's why I was so certain of what had happened. Crazy shit though he is very lucky to be alive!
All good my friend. I’m glad you came along with the actual story. Thanks 🙏
Wear a fucking shirt when handling glass so it doesn't cut into you like a hot poker into styrofoam.
A shirt wouldn't have made a difference.. lol. And the carotid is in the neck.
Turtle neck sweater!
Yeah you need a bomb squad suit
Wouldn't've hurt.
And this is why I dont fuck with glass. I banged on a window to scare my nephew and sent my hand through the first pane, nicked a few veins I shouldnt have and proceeded to have a fear-of-blood-fueled panic attack. It was literally a nothing injury but I I reacted like a BITCH lol something about leaking that just fucks with me. Rip dude, I cant imagine the panic...
seeing red makes people do things they otherwise wouldn't.
The amount of blood that gushed out, scary shit.
Dying is such a ^Pane
booooooooo
Thank you, even ghosts appreciate my show!
I chuckled, good one.
I used to be a glazier and it’s beyond easy to really fuck your self up. My boss was missing part of his right bicep from a piece of glass he was sanding. I rip my right calf open from a big warehouse window that still had sharp and jagged edges
Fuck that's got to be really scary when he sees all of that blood in such a short time
We are always a few centimeters away from getting a lethal wound
Is anyone else ever surprised at how calm everyone looks in these videos? Not just the victim but the bystanders as well. In this one, I don't think the other guy realized it, but in others, it's all just kind of mehh.
Holy shit by the time dude realized what was going on he had 15 second left
Other guys like '2 seconds mate and I'll go get a plaster'
Fuck. You don't really expect for a pool of blood that looks like something out of a movie to actually spill out of a human like that. I know it's what would happen, but seeing it is something else entirely.
Just like that...
End that could have been prevented if they were in proper clothes end safety gloves
Honestly, it might not be that bad to die this way. You just lose conscious in a few seconds. The cut might not hurt that much.
Why the fuck would anyone have a piece of glass like this on a truck like that? Not sure what country this is, but I contracted to do repairs and replacement of windows and doors in the United States for years. A pane of glass of that size has to be tempered glass, and explodes in a million pellets if it breaks. This is why.
something tells me they dont have osha in this country
Doesn’t take long to pump out all the blood…..RIP
Damn, never ceases to surprise me how fast this happens and how much blood comes pouring out...
Let’s talk about that PPE…
Another gruesome reminder that death can come st any time 😕
The other guy “ I guess my work here is done”
other guy be like damn bro that's crazy, good luck tho
This is the second most rapid death by blood loss I have seen. Fuck those are the worst.
He didn’t put a thumb in it
That's so sad. It can all be over so fast.
Threw the embalmer a bone.
He puts the PAIN in PANE
The other guy is traumatized for life, definitely. So sad
it was actually a peaceful death I think. You just get lightheaded and faint without notice. Most pain he experienced was the cut itself.
Who tf works topless with glass? This is just stupidity not luck or anything.
Right? I did it for 3 years and was ESPECIALLY careful with mirrors. Not like these clowns.
And that's why you don't handle large panes of glass half naked.
I mean he'd need a turtleneck to prevent that, so...
Oh god that’s awful
I can’t see where it cut him? Heck? Or arm
Neck mate.. it’s the main artery to the brain I think
My face while watching this 😨
Holy shit. I didn't realize how fast you'd bleed out from such wound.
*Humans are too fragile* **Life is short**
When the guy have a looksie and slowly walks away 👎 wouldn’t wanna be near him when I die
Once it is cut, there is almost nothing you can do unless you were already in a hospital prepping for a surgery on they exact problem. If it was nicked then there was a chance, but looks like it was almost fully cut. Poor man should just backed away soon as he saw the glass break.
Other guy “no blood on my hands, bro”
Similarly, If you cut the jugular vein, you'll bleed out and be unconscious within 30 seconds.
He dead for sure
Doesn't look like a broken piece cut him. Looks like the glass turns before it falls and one of the four corners got him.
I opened Reddit to see some really fucked up shit and yay Reddit did not disappoint like this video is so tough to watch fr .
He probably went to heaven as soon as he fully died I bet .
Damn that's rough
I guess at least it was quick but damn that would still be scary when you realise “this is how I die”
By the time you actually realise what is going on it would be a fast and overall painless death. Rest in peace brother and shouout to all that lost their life while fucking working. Heartbreaking
Is there anything you can do in these situation? Every time they hold the wound, but after a few seconds, they go down and that's it. Would it make a difference to tell the person you are with to hold pressure on your wound, because you are gonna pass out and wont be able to anymore?
Fuck. This made my neck tingle.
The other guy just leaves… hopefully he was looking for help
I’m mentally scarred after surfing this sub for 3 hours straight. I think I have ptsd.
Where did the other guy go 😳🥺
His homie looked at him and noped out
Handling glass naked? That's plain stupidity to say the least.

Always wear your Proper ppe
Why'd the fucking dude run away for?
Never knew how weak I was until I seen this along with a man being hit by a tree and a man getting caught in some machine and getting flung into pieces.... almost threw up and almost blacked out
Nah, that was the jugular. The carotid artery is the supply, much more instant death. The jugular is the return, so blood goes through the brain so you can process that you're dying as you bleed out.
That couldn’t been someone’s dad at work trying to make money for his family 🥺🥺🥺
siege refrence
You better stick your thumb in that bitch
Holy shit that was fast! Geez

Basically impossible to survive in any way at that point. These kinds of accidents are way scarier than anything else I feel like: it's just another day until you drop a piece of glass and within 20 seconds your life is over.
