I’m not thinking of virus or illness. Just physical injuries. Every paper cut, burn, broken bone, stubbed toe, bonked head, etc.
You receive all those injuries right now, in a single moment.

I think I would lose an arm and maybe an eye, plus lots of brain damage and bleeding, but otherwise I think I would live.

    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.

    Depends if I can get my phone unlocked and call an ambulance or not. Unassisted I’m probably bleeding out, but if I can get to a hospital then I can probably make it. I do wonder how much skin I’ll even have left at this point, considering the sheer number of cuts, scrapes and burns I’ve had, but blood loss should be the only potentially fatal problem needing to be dealt with immediately.

    Big if, though, my hands would be a busted up mess. Operating a touchscreen would be a pretty big ask, and I probably don’t have a lot of time fully conscious. I’d also have several broken bones preventing me from going anywhere to find help.

    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.

    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.

    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

      It’s a good question, because when you think about it, surgery is a combination of carefully controlled intentional injury, and repair of that injury.

      Yeah if they do I’m dead. Brain surgery in addition to all the concussions I’ve had, oh and had a stroke during birth. If I survived, not much would be going on in my head

    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.

    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.

    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.
