1. apply pressure and stop the bleeding. elevate above heart.
2. have some pack the limb in ice. Go to the hospital. Don't wait the longer the limb stays detached from you the less chance they will be able to re attach it.
3. go in the enterance where the ambulances go they will take you immediatley.
4. the reason it is bleeding so bad is because you cut throught muscle bone ligaments veins arteires, blood vessels.
5. The longer you wait to recive medical attention. The more chance that are where you severed you leg. The tissue will become infected and they will have to amputate more other wise the infection could kill you so.
GO GO GO TO THE HOSPITAL!! AND DON'T FORGET TO PACK YOUR LEG IN ICE AND TAKE IT WITH YOU. GOOD LUCK. NEXT TIME BE CAREFUL AND PAY ATTENTION!

Turnicate.
take your shirt or a piece of cloth and wrap it around the leg approximately 3 inches above the wound and then take a stick and turn the cloth with the stick until you have cut off the blood. Then secure the location of the stick so it will not unwind releasing the blood. Next find medical help.
Make sure to take the other piece of the leg with you, if you get help in time, they may be able to reattach it.

GO TO THE HOSPITAL. as you are enroute try to control the bleeding. Apply direct pressure to the wound and elevate the area. If the bleeding continues uncontrolably make a turaqit. wrap the amputated leg with sterile dressing, place in a plastic bag and put the leg on ice.

I personally think it wasn't your leg but your head. Just quickly think about all the fun times in the past. Good-bye.

CUT THE OTHER LEG OFF, YOU WILL NOT FEEL THE PAIN FROM THE FIRST LEG AFTER YOU DO THIS.

Apply pressure on the wound and go to the hospital before you bleed to death. And for Zeke, it is tourniquet, not turnicate.

I'm pretty sure if something like this happened. You wouldn't be online.
