Why does everyone who ' s in an accident love to say that I died . And then they brought me back to life . No , you didn ' t die . Your heart might have stopped beating or slowed way down with low blood pressure but that ' s not dying . Dying as in brain dead means that oxygen in your brain has been depleted for such a time that your neurons actually die by apoptosis . That ' s irreversible . Nobody dies and comes back to life . related gripe people who seem to find it necessary to always claim the doctor said if the wound was 1 mm deeper , I would have died . <| sep |> not interested in black wheels sry <| sep |> Just tell them Yeah , everyone hates Canadians because you ' re smug pricks . Atleast the Australians , who are superior in every single measurable way aren ' t so smug about it .
