3. Lets see.
This just happened to me.

Do not attempt to sew yourself up if you cut your hand, it really hurts.

Danm, who thought it could hurt that much.

I am not that good at sewing anyway.

Well, the scar won't be that bad.

4. See, now that is something I would try

Although I would apply some topical lidocaine or something first. But I'd do it if I didn't have an alternative.

I'd be like that Javier Bardem character in No Country for Old Men, that bathtub scene when he fixes his bullet wound in his leg.

7. I like the way he was picking out the pellets in his leg.
That was one tough dude.

8. I don't know why but I loved how he punched holes in the
bottle of irrigation fluid, whatever it was, antibiotic or saline. That was very clever.

9. He knew what he was doing.
At the end of the movie when he broke his arm in the car accident, he just was able to walk away.

He had some rough bark.
