I’m not thinking of virus or illness. Just physical injuries. Every paper cut, burn, broken bone, stubbed toe, bonked head, etc.
You receive all those injuries right now, in a single moment.

I think I would lose an arm and maybe an eye, plus lots of brain damage and bleeding, but otherwise I think I would live.

    I’ve lived a relatively low injury life, and I think you’re sleeping on some pretty obvious universal but forgettable experiences.

    If I just consider what it would feel like to experience all of my sunburns, paper cuts, back problems, mosquito bites, and situations where I’ve been hit in the nuts or had the wind knocked out of me…

    If the shock of experiencing all that minor stuff at once isn’t enough to take me out, it’d at least be agonizing enough that I might shoot myself just to get a little relief.
