How many concussions can you withstand before you die?

Answer 1

Well some football players have over 100. Read this recent article from CNN http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/01/26/athlete.brains/index.html I've never heard of a football player to get 100 concussions, that i think is impossible. i have had 6 concussions in my lifetime and i am a sophmore in high school. I'm no doctor but i know that this is terrible for me and i still have reprocussions from it. I'm still playing but i have heard that if you have more then 7 you have a shot at dieing

well most football players do, and yes ive had 6, there is also a marine from my town that had to check for IED's and he had 8 and the service wont let me him go back.

Answer 2

It depends on the severity of the concussion(s). There is no specific number.

Answer 3

There is no known specific number before permanent brain damage or death may occur, however the more concussions the higher the chance.

Answer 4

A lot. My friend has had four already and he is only ten years old :o

so, yeah. more than 4

soft concussions : 100 - medium concussions : 25 - strong concussion : 1 .
