If it cuts your arteries you could bled to death, but not directly from the cut.



Hello,

It is VERY unlikely you will die from a paper cut. It is possible though, there is a condition where the slightest little cut can kill you, because your blood does not clot, so its just keeps on running out. You also have a chance of infection setting in from germs. Once again, it is not likely, but, can happen.



Well, not from a paper cut alone but stuff can get in the paper cut such as germs, bacteria and can go septic and lead to your heart or brain, so in a way you can.You just have to keep your cuts and wounds clean,It's very,very rare that this would happen though,but it's a possibility.



Well I doubt you would but if it got really infected you could. But I am sure people are smart enough not to let it get that infected. People must be really idiotic if they would let it become that way. Who agrees?



Well depends, if the paper cut goes deep enough to cut your Aorta then yes, but this a has 99.8% chance of happening!!



yeah if it got infected or if you were a hemophilliac and didnt bother getting treatment ... before someone says it i know my spelling is pretty bad lol



not from the paper cut itself, maybe a condition of some sort or a phobia



if anything gets infected there's a possibility of death, but it's highly unlikely.



Sure, it could get infected



Nope no way on this earth can you die from papercut! LMAO
