This is how I feel when people say "this person got stabbed twice in the back, how are they aliiiiiive, lazy writing" when I have a friend who as a 14 year old got stabbed 9 times in the back, stomach, arm and chest by a middle aged former soldier, but survived. His dad was stabbed more and did die unfortunately, but the 14 year old was a guest of honour at our football team a couple of weeks later, walking and looking nowhere near as rough as you'd expect. He's a fully grown man with no physical limitations now, incredible guy.

i don't know if i would say that for a person getting stabbed in the back / i don't see that that often. what i do see it for, and what i will continue to be astounded by, is joel from the last of us being impaled lol

The first example that comes to my head would be Arya getting stabbed twice in the stomach and surviving in Game of Thrones. People were outraged and spoke about it literally for years, but my mate got stabbed in the stomach multiple times and chest and back and arm when he was younger than her and survived.

Also I swear I've seen a thousand stories on the Internet of people surviving being impaled right through the body, wasn't Joel's more of a stab that went a few inches in?

lol no it went literally through his entire body and the reason he survived was due to a 14 year old kid just...stitching it up like nothing happened lol
