    I used to be a firefighter. Responded to a suicide call one day in a rural area about 30 minutes from a hospital, and 90 miles from a trauma center. Our response time was about 25 minutes. Arrived to find a male with a complete pass through GSW to the head. In one temple, out the backside. Still breathing but unconscious. Began transport to hospital to transfer care to flight medics. PT stopped breathing about 5 minutes from the hospital. Obviously, the injuries were incompatible with life per protocol, but since he had been breathing we started CPR anyways. Doc called it as soon as we arrived in the ER. Guy was alive almost a whole hour after the shot was fired.

    I also said this on the original video, but instant death isn't always the case. I witnessed a suicide when I was 15. He did not die instantly. He survived for about an hour, maybe an hour and a half, but even if he survived, he wouldn't have been the same. Keep that in mind if you ever want to hurt yourself. It's not always instant.
    People love you. Seek help.

    Maybe I wrote about this case in the original video, but I think it fits here, too^^
    We had a case of a head shot that would have been survived, if it would have been the only injury. The other being a shot through the heart, which was not survived. The patient was hit over the counter with a pistol right in the middle of the forehead. We could see at autopsy, that the bullet passed between the hemispheres and came to a stop in the occipital bone. The damage to the brain was absolutely minimal, no major blood vessel was hit, nothing. He would have survived that shot, since an ambulance was at the scene rather quickly. Unfortunately, the shooter fired several shots and hit the heart and the lung. That was the most lucky unlucky guy on my table ...

      Reminds me of this story about the repeating volcanic pistol:
      A suicidal man went to a gun store to buy a .34 volcanic pistol with the ammunition (presumably because at the time it was that or a muzzleloader). Once he got home he shot himself, then chambered a new round and shot himself again, and repeated this process until he emptied the gun, the side of his head was covered in blood, and his wife came home horrified.
      This is because the ammunition it used, .34 rocket ball, was well a rocket, rockets need time and distance to build up momentum and become lethal, within a dozen meters it may not be lethal, and from the muzzle it has almost zero time or distance to become deadly.

      ​@@ryanduncan6801 Ok bro but not every situation is the same. There's people that have survived falls from 50 stories up and there's also people that have slipped in the shower and died. Some people survive a grenade, some don't. Just because that happened to you does not mean it HAS to happen to everyone else. I watched this story about a 19 year old that got shot 3 times in the face and his gf was shot and killed and the cops thought he killed her because they couldn't even see the bullet holes in his face. They didn't notice for like a day, they just thought he was acting weird because they thought he killed her. When they finally noticed, they realized that some guys broke into their house and shot him and his girl. I'll find the video and post it here. Not everyone or every situation is the same. Think outside the box.

Most of the time though the bullet hits the brain at some crucial brain areas which can alter your entire life forever, memories can be forgotten, not knowing how to walk, tinnitus, amongst about a billion other complications that _could_ arise. Truly insane how people can survive even the most life-threatening situation.

    My uncle was shot in the head while waiting in his car outside a food joint at night back in the early 80’s. He was in the right place at the wrong time. He received medical attention and manage to pull through his injury, however the event left him permanently blind.
    He lived a generally normal life, though his health slowly and gradually declined throughout the years. Having had strokes multiple times had made the left side of his body become more numb, which made it harder for him to function properly as he got older. He passed away in his late 60’s a few years ago.

      @@sullythedude dude come on. "it was not an objective refrence to the meaning of victim" literally nonsense, if it doesn't have anything to do with the word, don't use the word, because everyone else reads the word victim and understands it as meaning victim. Calling someone a victim is calling them a victim, I'm sorry but no, being a horrible human does not mean you are a victim of that, it just makes you a horrible person. I don't know what your specific circumstances are but I say the same, you causing hard to other people does not make you a victim, in any way, you can face repercussions for that, negative ones, but you are no longer a victim when you face the consequences of hurting others unless those consequences greatly out do your own. I'm not perpetuating this idea of "well they're a victim too in their own way right?" because they simply aren't, using it to call someone who objectively is not a victim and harms others inherently takes away the value from the word, calling them a victim inherently gives them vindication. This is bullshit that only gets used to diminish the actions of what they did and gain sympathy, notice how people only ever apply this shit to white men who have caused horrible crimes? There is no reality in which him being a bad person and causing harm to others makes him a "victim" in any sense of the word

    A very rare case happened with my uncle, he was shot in head with a sawed off 12 gauge buckshot from a distance of 3-4 meters. the pellets hit him just below the pinna, an another round was fired on the back. The shots damaged the internal ear and few shots penetrated the brain, the right side jaw was damaged along with the internal ear. He went through multiple consecutive brain surgeries to remove the pellets. Luckily he survived the ordeal and still has pellets in the back. He spent almost 6 months in hospital. He has all motor skill and other functions intact except hearing through the right ear.

      Mark and Scott have both been astronauts, and they're also identical twins. After Giffords' shooting, Mark retired from NASA to be with his wife, and he later entered politics. When Scott spend his year in space, Mark was used as a sort of control test subject for comparison, which helped them identify and study the effects of prolonged space flight.
