A shortage of blood can mean insufficient oxygen reaches the major organs, usually resulting in shock and organ failure. Dr. von Hagens examines the consequences of blood loss in the body's vital organs by creating knife-wounds in the torso of a frozen body revealing the extent of the damage. A lesser known cause of blood loss, fractured bones, is also examined.
