How long does it take to die from gunshot wound?
Need more information, like: 1- Where on the body did the bullet hit? 2- What was the bullet's trajectory? 3- What caliber was the bullet? A shot to the head in which both hemispheres of the brain are damaged will probably be fatal, eventually. If the brainstem is intact, heart & breathing can continue for quite a while. If the brainstem is damaged, heart rate & breathing will likely stop. Cells in the body will begin dying within minutes. A shot to the heart/aorta/pulmonary artery could take a few minutes to lose consciousness. Several more minutes to exsanguinate (bleed out). A wound to the arm or leg that misses a major artery may not be fatal. Infection could kill several weeks after the gunshot.
