It's possible to die from feeling too much pain?

You're at least able to get into a coma, not sure about dying.

 

 

 

Your mum? I mean, if you manage to choke on that..

As far as I know, yes. Too much pain can put a person into a state of shock, and I am pretty certain that every time a person goes into shock, they have a chance of dieing.

 

 

 

BTW, for the guy who said neutrons, pretty much everything has neutrons in it.

Adding onto what the user who posted above me said... Bigfoot can't kill you either. :lol:

 

Technically, a big foot can kill you. Big foot the monster that is.

Just single neutrons, seperated from protons + electrons.

 

 

 

It doesn't occur in nature, but neither does lots of stuff that could be suggested.

 

 

 

And for too much pain, I think (and this is an estimate completely made up by yours truly) that too much pain could possibly overwhelm a Neuron in which case would probably result in more pain, and eventually your brain may just stop as to not feel pain (or a coma or such). Pain itself is only existent so that you can react to things that may be dangerous, like fire.

Too much pain makes you pass out, it doesn't kill you. Also, a single "overwhelmed" neuron causes no harm. It probably just dies. You're in trouble when your whole neuronal circuit goed haywire.

Can sight kill you?

 

 

 

If you look at one fugly something something, perhaps you'd have to throw up, resulting in loosing all of those yummie nutritions :D And if you looked at someone like, let's say Brian Peppers

 

[hide=][/hide]

 

could make you throw up so badly you pass out and choke in your own vommit? (sounds really nasty :D)

Is sight 'physical' ?

How about a grain of sand?

Sight is light that bounces off of what you're looking at and bounces into your eye. So physically, you are touching the light.

Neutrons are extremely dangerous when free and is generally considered the highlight of nuclear weapons and energy. It's actually know as neutron radiation, and it does happen in nature, as do other forms of radiation. They affect forms of matter directly, and are not absorbed as are alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays. Furthermore, exposure to neutrons causes this energy to be transfered to the surrounding atoms, protons, which then go on doing the same to other atoms. This can result in cell death, cancer, and even death. Neutrons or neurons, they can both kill you.

This discussion comes up in my house every so often.

 

 

 

Something that can't kill you, is a chemical mixture composed of about...

 

78.08% nitrogen

 

20.95% oxygen

 

0.93% argon

 

0.038% carbon dioxide

 

1% Water Vapor (H20)

 

And trace amounts of other gases.

 

 

 

 

 

More commonly known as air.

That's what you think. Even if you rule out air pressure, you can still die from too much air, so I've heard. Just like you can die from drinking too much water.

 

In that case it's not the water that kills you, but the osmotic balance. With the extracellulair fluid being hypo-osmotic, electrolytes will leak out of the cell creating distorted cells which will eventually die.

 

It's the water that's causing the osmotic imbalance, remember. :P

Yeah, its not the electrolytes that diffuse out, its the water that diffuses in, making the cells swell and burst. right? :pray:

 

 

 

At first I thought this thread was being directed at Lenin :twss:

thoughts?

Your mum? I mean, if you manage to choke on that..

 

That's just nasty.

 

And I can't think of anything from which it would be physically impossible for you to die.

The water is absorbed into the cells, yes. I don't think the cells actually burst, it's the electrolyte imbalance within the cell; the ratio is screwed up.

The water is absorbed into the cells, while electrolytes diffuse out to correct the imbalance.

 

Seriously you guys lost me. are you argueing if it can kill people(or yourself) or not?

Anything can, so can water.

Ooo good one. It can kill you but only if you can reach it, and covering that kind of distance is impossible for us earthlings.

Air can kill if it is injected into your blood. or if the wind carries a really big piece of metal sidingthat kills you.

We could send a family to live on a rocket, forever creating new generations to reach the star. Would kind of suck, spending all those years on a rocket only to die to something that no one has ever died to.

On Alpha Centauri: yes, it can kill you. Being a star, and therefore a huge ball of flaming gas, it has the capability to kill you. If we're being specific like that, then I could say "that piece of paper on the other side of the globe can't kill me".

Hmm... :-k

 

Got one! :idea: How about light travelling away from you?
