Funny but I dunno if I buy it tbh, using an EpiPen alone is a medical emergency requiring medical attention. It's not something you can just shake off.
Sounds like someone's outta practice.
Obviously after the first couple times he would build up a tolerance.
If you start taking small bullets to the head, you can build up a tolerance to taking larger bullets to the head.
It's why you always always spin the chamber going up against a saurian when lead is on the line.
is this true /k/ommandos?
Two epi pens?
Depends on the severity of the allergy. Sometimes epipens are prescribed for people who have a risk of anaphylaxis but have never actually experienced it. Which means that people doing this are still tremendously stupid, but not unbelievable.
Yeah, it keeps you breathing until you can get help hopefully. I don't have allergies, though my dad does and carries and epi pen, but I don't think I'd trust my body to just get over it by the time the epinephrine wears off.
Also I read somewhere that an EpiPen works in like 95% of cases. There is a small but existing chance that it won't work and you just die from anaphylaxis.
