The ‘One Punch Can Kill’ campaign reminds people that in a split second a person can become a killer or be killed. We want everyone to be able to enjoy the pubs and clubs in the towns and cities in West Yorkshire, but would encourage people to consider how much alcohol they consume.

A blow to the chest can cause a cardiac death in several ways. The trauma could be of sufficient force to directly damage the heart muscle, causing it to rupture, resulting in sudden death. If the AVN is bruised or damaged, complete heart block, where no electrical impulses travel through the AVN, could result.

Theoretically, yes. If the punch was hard enough to rupture or tear the liver, there is a high chance you could die of internal bleeding, especially from the liver, as the liver has a high blood supply.

Among three impact directions, a lateral impact was most likely to cause liver injury with a minimum punch speed of 5 m/s (the momentum was about 2.447 kg. m/s). Liver injuries could occur in isolation and were not accompanied by rib fractures due to different material characteristics and injury tolerance.

A liver shot or liver punch is a punch, kick, or knee strike to the right side of the ribcage that damages the liver. Blunt force to the liver can be excruciatingly painful, and an especially effective shot will incapacitate a person instantly.
