It takes 1 minute to die from a 45 caliber If you are military and you remember your training. You have a very good chance of survival. Just remember your SABC. (Self Aid Buddy Care) The hand and arm are extremities to the body where mitigating the loss of blood is not impossible or that difficult to do. You can even perform the necessary actions yourself under fire if you have to. Most military members in combat today deploy with a SABC Kit that includes a patented Combat Torniquet. (a torniquet you can apply to yourself with one hand)

How long you take gunshot to thigh to heel?

The time it takes for a gunshot wound to travel from the thigh to the heel can vary significantly based on multiple factors such as the type of firearm, bullet caliber, distance, and the angle of the shot. Generally, a bullet can travel at speeds ranging from 800 to 1,200 feet per second. Therefore, if the distance between the thigh and heel is approximately 2 feet, it could take just a fraction of a second for a bullet to traverse that distance. However, it's important to note that the actual impact and consequences of such a wound would be immediate and potentially life-threatening, requiring urgent medical attention.


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.
