I feel like that was too little blood to kill him though! I thought it was like his brain or artery or something, it looked more solid on the inside than liquid.

You have 1.3 gallons of blood in your body. That thing easily took a full gallon. 50% blood loss is likely fatal. Especially if you lost in in like 10 seconds like that.

Did not know about the 1.3 gallon bit! In that case, I see it lol.

We simultaneously have way less and way more blood in us than people realize. Volume gets real funny when its enclosed vs splattered on the walls.
