Being Hit In the Nose, Fairly Hard. Posted: 03-22-06 01:31am
I have sort of an odd question and i'm not
sure if this is the right forum for it or
not, but here it goes.
In the near future, i'll be filming a
movie where I get hit in the nose, hard
enough that it starts bleeding (sounds
crazy, I know). Basically, I was
wondering if permenant damage can result
from such a bleeding? It didn't seem to
me like it would be a problem since people
hit their noses on things all the time,
but I thought I should play it on the semi
safe side and see what people thought
about it.
Thanks for your time!
Ps. It would take way to long to explain
why exactly im letting someone hit me in
the nose, so for the sake of discussion,
just assume I have a legitamit reason.

I don't know that the bleeding would be
the problem - I think the problem would be
the force used to create the bleeding. If
your nose breaks, then yes there could be
some permanent damage.

But, if it doesn't break, then it's not
likely that any permenant injury will
result?

This "internal bleeding" you speak
of...How likely is it to occur? What
about the severity of it? Is it likely
that if such bleeding occurs, that it will
be a severe hazard to me? Ketchup is
not really an option, but I appreciate
your concern for my safety, and your
insightful evaluation of what im trying to
do.

...Its i.N.T.E.R.N.A.L
.B.L.E.E.D.I.N.G!!!! Obviously it isn't
something to take lightly...Do your own
research on it. I just know of 2 ppl that
got into fights/fell and this happened to
them and they were both in the hospital
for a long time

Hmm, that doesn't sound like much fun.
I wonder how likely it is for bleeding
this severe to occur. If it is fairly
likely, then I will obviously not attempt
this. I can remember atleast a dozen
times as a child accidentally hitting my
nose on something, and having it start to
bleed profusely. To my knowledge, this
caused no permenant or lasting damage to
my nose. It's this sort of thing that I
was hoping I could accomplish with the
utmost minimal risk. Anyone else have
any information about the probability of
sustaining serious damage from this kind
of thing?
