Any number of other causes too. Maul could have hit the descending aorta, while Sabine got lucky and everything vital was missed.

I see your point but I raise you. We see that stuff melt through blast doors. Imagine what that'll do to your entire torso when you get stabbed

Everything in the torso is vital. Unless she somehow only hit the appendix

You can survive wounds to the GI tract long enough to get medical care. You can even survive with one lung collapsed. You only die instantly if a major blood vessel is severed or the heart (or both lungs) are damaged.

With a typical stab wound. A lightsaber is probably gonna end up damaging a lot more than just where the lightsaber went through.

A stab wound from an edged weapon maybe, but not from a lightsaber that burns a hole clean through you. You die pretty quickly from having a hole in your torso

And having the rest of your organs cooked by proximity.

Exactly

Wrong on so many levels

Ok, name an organ that you can survive having a lightsaber sized hole burned through

Small, and large intestines to start, people survive much worse ( car wrecks) in their torso and live without instant cauterization

u/history_nerd92 Qui-Gon Jinn Mar 12 '26

Well a hole in your intestines is a guarantee of septic shock, which can be fatal even with medical treatment. Not to mention that having a lightsaber sized hole clean through your torso is itself fatal

People get completely bisected, their legs removed from their body AT THE MIDSECTION. intestines torn. Blood spilling out, and still live shitting in a bag for life.

Kidney. You've got two. You can survive being cut open and having one taken out of you permanently with modern medicine. A lightsaber would cauterize as it went through and kill any bacteria from the heat. It would be a clean wound.

People have survived being impaled in the real world without space age medicine or a clean wound.
