    Help - I've severed an artery

    Was just using a chainsaw, and I've severed my femoral artery.

    Should I apply pressure to stem the incredible blood loss or try and phone 999?

                Better safe than sorry. You need a tourniquet. Round your neck.

                    Put a big hat on and some make-up. Then go round making hilariously funny jokes about the 'Texas chainsaw mascara'
