About 5 seconds. Also, they can't apply direct pressure on the area where
Kircheis was shot. Kircheis had about a minute to live after the hit. The
vain there supply blood to the brain. So you could either use direct
pressure and cut off blood supply or leave it open and cut off the blood
supply. Too bad they could get him into a cryo-unit. If they could have
just freezed him.
