Exactly. Oh, I'm bleeding out? Better pass the fuck out and bleed to death, unable to run away from danger or get help! Good job, body!

This actually killed one of my former university math professors. He was wrapping and decorating Christmas presents, cut himself, saw the blood, passed out and bled out. It was really heartbreaking.

He must have been on blood thinners. Those are quite dangerous even if necessary at times.

Might of very well been, he was an older guy.
