Whether intentionally or not, what do movies depict or present wrong a lot of the time?

  1. a lot of people haven’t actually experienced real pain to understand how bad real pain is you don’t get shot and just suck air through your teeth tie a piece of fabric around it tightly then act totally normal

Tbh, it depends on the person. I've broken a finger before, and while it hurt like hell I didn't scream in pain. I was silent while thinking oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck in my head while trying to get to safety.

That being said, once the adrenaline wore off I had signs of shock. I couldn't stand for long before getting tunnel vision

    I tore an Achilles tendon once, and for the first 20 minutes, I was still able to walk, but I was literally blacking out. I didn't feel much pain, but my vision just kept getting dark. When I stopped walking, my vision returned. The pain came afterward 😶

    I’ve had a double lung transplant with no epidural, I did physical therapy on ECMO, real pain is mentally disabling. I’ve broken both my arms, the first one I sat for 40 minutes before decoding I should go to urgent care, the other arm I drove myself there. Once you cross your personal threshold for pain you’re more animal than human.
