Is it possible to die if you stab two knives in your neck?

[Freakazette]

I've read about the "night-night" method, but what if instead you're going to use a knife to target those two areas on your neck? ( two knives, at the same time )

It would be very messy and incredibly painful. It would also be a lot more SI to get past, forcing yourself to do the necessary cutting.

@ExistentialEntropy Okaaay, so you actually have to cut, not just stab and that's it...

update: and pull the knife out , cutting is a must?

Na, the human body is immune to knives to neck, exept if you spent 10 skill points in blade skills and have reached level 30 as a wizard swordsman, then yeah 2 *should* be enough, but that's assuming your stats and perk didnt give you too big of a knife resistance bonus on top of your base stats.

Nah, not really, I was just dreaming of just cutting my neck somehow

If only it was like Hollywood, compression's the only way to painlessly do it.

I don't mind the pain, I was just curious if it could have "worked" just by stabbing - in one shot, and maybe even pulling the knives out ( but that's it, without involving any further cutting )

Cutting, stabbing, slicing, gouging; call it whatever you like. Driving a razer sharp blade into your neck would require incredible force of will. Much more so than even full suspension I think.

There's a real chance that you would stop short of the sudden interruption of the carotid blood flow and just end up with a painful injury to your windpipe and heavy blood loss.

That's why not any kind of razors... Pointy solid sharp knives stabbed in one go, with that incredibile force of will (towards death) - therefore no time of any stopping, right?

But you're right... If you don't manage to stab from the very 1st time properly, and where you supposed to, and definetely fatal, and such

It is not impossible. However, effectively very difficult. The result would depend on various factors such as level of injury, and whether or not one of the major arteries of the neck are actually severed. If either the carotid or jugular is cut, you could die within minutes from blood loss, carotid also from CNS failure due to lack of blood flow to the brain, damage to the trachea could result in death from asphyxia. I can only imagine someone trying this in a situation of extreme desperation, it's most unnecessary and unreliable. For one, it is difficult to see the arteries yourself, many people survive neck wounds as they are imprecise. It is also incredibly difficult to fight your body's natural reflexes. So no you wouldn't be able to target two areas at the same time. It's most likely that after the first stab, if you even managed that, you'd be, in shock from the excruciating pain and terror and lack of breath, unable to remove the knife, which is the point you'd probably be found or get yourself to a hospital.

In short: in theory this could work, in reality most unlikely.

One can get the carotid without touching the trachea, no? Guys, we're not talking about ear-to-ear.

What? Hell no
