Much more than I learned in Boy Scouts. I also learned that one needs to be sure they don't get a Chinese counterfeit when buying a tourniquet, especially on Amazon. And to get the latest version. Not easy to be sure.

Comments that I can think of, this is one time that being a big girl saved her life. Skinny girl might have bled out even with a tourniquet. Location above the knee arterial bleed would likely have been fatal especially in time span it took to get to the hospital. Below knee at least gave her a chance. Can't believe hospital one sent her home in 3 hours.

I don't carry a tourniquet but every Boy Scout knows how to make one. Ninety minute ambulance ride with a tourniquet on would be tough to keep a leg.

Finally, doesn't every one check to make sure that everything in a gun works right? Will the safety mechanisms work when the gun is unloaded, not when it is loaded?

I hope that this video is not part of a malpractice suit and the deep pockets are of course hospital one and not the seller of the gun.
