I'm bikepacking and I thought bringing a tourniquet would be overkill. Then I saw this video which scared me to death.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsHz1IlLVyg&t=91sI still don't understand how this happened exactly, how the fuck is this possible? I think I remember some people saying that the guy had a previous injury in this area of his body so this crash did some magic stuff and cut his artery.
I bought a CAT Tourniquet after seing this shit, but I still keep it at home when I go outside because I'm a retard (though I have an Israeli bandage in my medikit that can double as a shitty tourniquet I guess).
Please convince me to bring the tourniquet on my outings, what kind of injury can happen in the wood that would require one?
