Fredrik Posted May 2, 2003 Would you cut your arm off, if your life depended on it? This is the sort of thing that I'd have found completely unrealistic if I had seen it in a movie. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fletcher` Posted May 2, 2003 That's a stupid question. Of course I'd cut your arm off if my life depended on it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Draconio Posted May 3, 2003 Reminds me of what they say, that a wolf will chew off its own feet to escape a trap. Would I do it? Maybe if I really thought I would die otherwise, and that it could give me a chance. But I'd hate to have to damage myself that badly. Plus it would fucking hurt. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted May 3, 2003 Plus it would fucking hurt.That's just what it comes down to when I think about it. >_< 0 Share this post Link to post
Alientank Posted May 3, 2003 If I knew no one would find me then yes I'd do it. By the sound of it if it was trapped under a rock chances are it was pretty mangled and probably wouldn't be useable again. So I think what he did was the right thing anyways. I'd do it if it meant I'd die otherwise 0 Share this post Link to post
Tobester Posted May 3, 2003 No. I can live with a tumor but not without a whacking arm. 0 Share this post Link to post

Naked Snake Posted May 3, 2003 I would probably never be in a situation that would require me to saw my own arm off. 0 Share this post Link to post

Lord FlatHead Posted May 3, 2003 Depends on the situation of course, but I'd probably choose death. Although that chainsaw scene in Evil Dead 2 was pretty fucking cool... "WHO'S LAUGHING NOW ??!" 0 Share this post Link to post
IMJack Posted May 3, 2003 Losing an arm to save my life: Dunno. Cutting off my own arm with a Leatherman pocket tool without painkillers in the Godforsaken middle of southern Utah: FUCK NO. 0 Share this post Link to post
Disorder Posted May 3, 2003 I'd rather die, thank you. Imagine slowly cutting your way through your own flesh and bones, ack. 0 Share this post Link to post
pritch Posted May 3, 2003 I'd like to say I'd cut it, without painkillers though I'd probably pass out/not have the guts to do it. I'm not sure and I hope I never have to find out. My typing's bad enough with two arms thanks. 0 Share this post Link to post
TheBlackKnight Posted May 3, 2003 Probably not, as I'm allergic to pain. :D Maybe I could do it if I used a lightsabre... 0 Share this post Link to post
MagnuM Posted May 4, 2003 I'd eat my arm off to see what it would taste like. Mmmmm my own flesh.... just kidding really. 0 Share this post Link to post
Alientank Posted May 4, 2003 I dunno I mean you get to live but you don't have an arm. Which makes it harder to find a job or a lady who wants to marry a cripple lol. I think I might cut it off then jump off a cliff screaming ZEPPLIN RULES! 0 Share this post Link to post
MagnuM Posted May 4, 2003 I'd spend the money for a prosthetic arm that has fingers; moveable that is. They do exist you know. Just a little pricey though. 0 Share this post Link to post

jute Posted May 5, 2003 lament said:Of course I'd cut it, and so would you, regardless of what you post here. actually, that's a pretty fucking dumb thing to say. for starters, what about the suicidal? they might just take advantage of the situation. and what about the drummer from def leppard? not only would he be out of a job without that arm, he'd have a really fucking hard time cutting it off without his other arm. he could be reading this, you know. there are more that i could list, but from the above quote, you sound like you have special mind powers, and i sure as fuck don't want a TUMAR. 0 Share this post Link to post
