#6 #5 swksvolFF - According to the male newscaster (who could read Turkish and had read the newspaper story about it), he pulled off his shirt, wrapped it around his neck to slow the bleeding, and "somehow got himself to the hospital in 4-5 minutes."

He'd lost a lot of blood, but survived. The doctor said the guy was lucky he was fat, or the knife would have cut through the artery completely.
