Do jewish people yell out "jesus" or "jesus christ" if they experience something painful, like banging a toe, or for any other reason?
If they don't what do they say?

I am atheist but I'll let a Jesus rip when I stub my toe. So much for theological consistency in extremis.

As a Jew, I can tell you that it depends on the person. I know plenty of people who yell "Jesus Christ!!!" when they're angry or in pain. Personally, I say "My God!" or the traditional "Oww!" What someone says when hurt is not something that is thought through thoroughly, so, since Christianity is dominant in our society, the Christian response will come out.

Not for the most part.
Religeous Jews mostly say things like "Oy vay!" or "Ouch!" or similarly clean exclamations.
Other Jews, as far as I know, say the usual secular words that most people do.

No, we are saying 'Allah!'. Muhammad isn't God, he's the prophet. we don't ask him for help, we ask from God. We basically say his call whilst praising him. and that i presumed Christians can no longer do this.
