How the hell did ___ not die in the river

  • I haven't seen anyone mention this, but could the fact that Luke had his leg in the water for a long time factor into why he died first? His dialog begins to sound more and more shaky the long his leg stayed in the water. Could hypothermia have crept in while his leg was submerged, and him falling completely in sealed the deal? If this were the case, he could have died even if he was pulled out and take to a fire. Bonnie and Clem weren't in the water as long as Luke "technically" (counting Luke's time from when his leg fell in to when he actually died), so that could be why they had a better chance at survival. I'm not a medical major, but that's how I see it. Is anybody in the forums a medical major and can confirm/deny this?

  • Luke was in the water for longer than Clementine and Bonnie should have died in this part but she didn't because.....

    Realism

    Then how did Bonnie live, she should have died too. And so should've Clem...

  • Anything that goes into your lungs that isn't air is bad for your lungs...
    :/ Just sayin'
    No need to justify using weed, I ain't judging. Just saying that it's bad for lungs because it is.

  • Because nobody will miss them... right?
    :) eheheheh

    In my experience in life ive found that drug users can die very easily

  • At most he would've probably gotten gangrene/frost bite so the leg would have probably needed to be amputated.
    But it doesn't effect major organs.

    Personally I am glad she escaped and ran off with the other 2. Why you ask? Lets just say we got some unfinished business.

  • I've been wondering about this as well, I'm not sure if this is just me making this up but surely if Bonnie had been a smoker then her lungs wouldn't have been as healthy as Luke's who, as far as I'm aware, didn't smoke. Usually when you smoke your airways can become affected thus meaning she would have been less likely to survive under the water because she needed more oxygen unlike Luke who would have been healthier in that.

    But I might be wrong, I thought I remembered learning something about that in class once when the teachers were trying to put us off smoking!

  • Well, Luke did tell Clem it was ok after it cracked and she froze in fear. I took it as Luke seeing the ice be getting her to not stop and make her way across.

    Well, Luke kinda sacrifices himself to save Clementine. He's fighting off walkers underwater which is going to cause any one to drown quickl

  • The main questions we need to know are:

    1. How long had Bonnie been a smoker?
    2. How long has she gone between the fall and her last smoke?

  • You actually CAN kill Bonnie.

  • Man, you made my sadistic joke about Squishy Cthulhu being a serial killer preying on drug users in the street very dark.

    Nobody knows where the bodies are buried...
    Except Squishy Cthulhu...

    At first I thought the thread was going to be about how Clementine survived her fall into the river at the beginning of the Season...

  • She doesn't have to aim for the kill...just a leg shot would do. That's the same thing I thought when I shot Kenny.

    I have been asking myself the same question for 6 months. It's possible that Bonnie is really good at holding her breath, maybe she had s

    And the characters in the game can't be wrong? They are also parallel with the ground.

  • It came right from the Clementine's mouth, it's a lake.

  • We all make mistakes some times. Maybe there was a hill or something the rest of the people could see over and saw it was a river, and Clementine couldn't because she's shorter.

    Dude, I know it's hard for you to accept, I wish it was a river too, but it's a friggin lake. It is a lake, the game calls it a lake and nothing else. No explaination on the protagonist being a shortie is going to cover up that is a lake.

  • Yes it does. It's not as bad as tar from cigarettes but it still affects your lungs in a negative way.

  • It's one of them rare "lake rivers" that you see only out in the wild. Although mostly docile, these aquatic bodies of water feed off of unsuspecting mammals that tend to cross it for safety and sustenance. A camouflage is created out of hills to disguise itself when prey draws near just like it's related cousin the "puddle waterfall". Nature is indeed a beautiful thing.

  • Hmmm so by that argument, I wouldn't have good lung capacity either.
    I suffer from Bronchecatisis and Emphysema and on home oxygen sixteen hours a day.
    Tell you what though. I can hold my breath for minutes at a time.
    I have to during Physio. My point is, just because someone has bad lungs, doesn't mean they can't hold their breath.
    Oh and it wasn't through smoking either, before anyone says that. Mine is genetic.
    Good job we have the NHS. That's all I can say.

    Bonnie was smoking... Last time I checked, that didn't equal good lung capacity. Luke was probably a huge stoner though. "Woaaaaaah. Art histooooory, maaaaan".

  • Well, in my playthrough, she's dead. I let sorry ass drown and never looked back. So, they're both dead. But I was saddened by Lukes demise, rest in peace brother, you will be missed.

  • Because...Reasons?

  • Smoking anything is bad for your lungs

  • But we're putting it in the context of why Bonnie would survive longer than Luke.
    Also if you're doing physio then you're lungs are going to increase in capacity over time.
    I have asthma so also have shitty capacity. But I stopped doing any lung expansion exercises when I was 12.
    let's just say that I wouldn't be the Bonnie in that situation...

  • he told he it was ok to reassure her, but that doesn't mean that he heard/knew the ice was cracking. regardless, she still could've warned him

  • I run six miles a day, and stay medicated while doing it. Can you do that? Have you ever heard of a vaporizer? Its 2015 learn the game.

    Nothing. Just that it will give you bad lungs. So you probably won't be able to hold your breath.

  • George... dafuq?
