What happens if you stab a fat person with a regular knife?

Question

Would it be fatal?

Answer 1

It would hurt like hell! Then, if I didn't take mine out, because I do carry and know how to use it reeeeaaaly well, I'd take your's and cut you from ear to ear or gut you like a fish.

Answer 2

When you say with a "regular" knife do you mean a skinny person knife? Because once I went to the knife store before a scheduled slaughter to pick up some fat people knives but they were all out and I had to get skinny people knives instead. And even though it was a pain in the *** I was still successful in slaughtering the heffer. I just used my brains and poked them in the rib cage just below that annoying fold of fat that all obese people seem to have under their arms. If I had a nice good fat assets knife I could have poked them right through that fat fold. I also could've poked the eyes or the neck as these areas aren't effected by their extreme overweightedness. I think your question was cruel and not at all nice. You need to be more politically correct when asking questions about murdering people. Jeeze!!!
I included an example of a fat person.

Answer 3

They would more than likely bleed to death, or if you hit a major organ die. Being a fat person versus a thin person stabbed with a knife is the same. so, more than likely yes they would die, but, for god's sake why would you even want to ask that question, planning on stabbing someone? I write all kinds of stories and write about things such as this, only because people seem to like it these days, it sells.....but, to really ask a question like that you have to be very naive. so think before you stab

Answer 4

If you stabbed them in the eye it would not matter if they were fat or not.

Interestingly the roman gladiators had a fairly thick layer of fat on their bodies so when they got cut it would cut through fat and not muscle so they could fight for longer. I think that answers your question.

Also, your question is a double edged sword. A skinny person might die from being stabbed because of the wound and a fat person might die from being stabbed just because they are fat and the assocated health problems.

Answer 5

There is some blood in the dermis. But, yes, roughly speaking the layer of skin, fat and actual body (dermis, adipose tissue, fascia) are like blankets on top of eachother. If you stab a very, very fat person, you would likely not break through the fascia and not hurt them very badly. You would puncture only skin and fat. Infection could likely occur but if they have adequate medical care, antibiotics and sutures, they should be just fine.

Answer 6

It could be fatal if the right internal organs are punctured... at the same time the guy stabbed could survive

Answer 7

i see where you're going with this, but it could be fatal if stabbed in the right spot. i hope you're not planning anything.

Answer 8

stabbing is so yesterday. it's much more harmful these days to attack someone emotionally. our egos and feelings are so fragile since the '90s, that even looks can kill. wusses.

Answer 9

They would bleed just the same as a black, white, asian, homosexual, heterosexual..... All have feelings and can feel pain. I do not know where you were headed with this question.

Answer 10

It's ashame we allow stupid people to ask questions
