    Why do people even want to go to Dubai of all places?

    There’s literally nothing there you can’t find somewhere that isn’t also in the middle of a god forsaken desert and built by slave labor.

    A woman willing to punch her husband for saying no, is probably better off not going to Dubai anyway.

    What a weird article. She was mad and punched him in the nose. That’s it. No mention whether he hit his head after falling. So, I’m led to believe this lady can one punch people to death.

      Yeah they call it a punch, but his nose and teeth were broken, and he died. I am gonna speculate she hit him with an object, or got him in a compromised position that allowed her to wail on his face for a while.

          I mean, she could be an MMA fighter or practiced boxer however, that is unlikely. Even the vast majority of fight trained people would have issues hitting someone so hard they break the front of their face and kill the person with a punch.

      It’s purely a hunch, but I would bet a larger percentage of women who punch their husbands to death want to visit Dubai versus women who don’t punch their husbands to death.

    Jfc. I wonder how common of an occurrence it had been for her to attack him when she got angry. You don’t go from 0 to manslaughter usually.

    Pathologists of Lemmy : does most people (36y old, …) dying from a single punch have a pre-existing condition ? Looks quite odd.

      It can happen. Punches to the face, head, and neck are more dangerous than some people realize. I won’t say lethality is super common. But if you punch someone in anger, be prepared for serious consequences.

      For example, sometimes a sinus collapses, sending bone fragments into the brain from a single hard blow to the wrong place. (I am not a doctor, but this happened to a kid in my home town in the 80s.)

        It happens quite often. I’m a paramedic and have responded to scenes numerous times where the patient was only hit in the face once and died. I actually remember, years ago, it happened two shifts in a row in the same parking lot. There was a bar there that commonly had fights outside after it closed. Both times, people told me the person was punched in the face only one time. One of the two he was laying in the grass, so it wasn’t even like he bashed his head on the pavement after.

          Yeah, I know a couple of stories like this. The one that stuck with me was a bunch of kids who did like a regular unsupervised boxing group. One day, one guy got clocked just right, said he was out, sat down, then collapsed.

          How are combat sports a thing? I’ve seen so many MMA fights end with a dude getting knocked out then the winner wailing on his lifeless face a few extra times before the ref pulls him off.

            Those are trained athletes. These are drunk red necks.

            I tried a quick Google for some statistics and didn’t dig deep. One of the first results shows 90 deaths in Australia from a single punch in a 2 year span. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36878145/

              Yes, but how does training help a knocked out fighter when he receives 3-4 more uncontested blows to his face? Is it because their head is already flat on the mat, and is absorbing less impact from the punches or something?

      15 years ago, my taekwondo instructor punched a mugger in the chest only once, and the man’s rib broke and stabbed his heart and then he died. My instructor spent spent 2 or 3 years of jailtime for the crime “unintentionally killing”.

      Not a pathologist but def if you got the right place anything can happen. As an anecdote, when I was growing up a fight started on the sidewalk I’m front of my house with some teens (not like big guys by any measure) and the guy threw one punch and the dude got knocked out. Hit him right in the temple and the dude died in the hospital after.

      Can definitely happen. I guy died in my country years ago because someone punched him outside a pub and he fell.

      Several years ago in my city a guy got punched once outside of a bar, fell backwards, and broke his neck on the street curb. “Just one punch” can do a hell of a lot of damage, if you get hit in the wrong spot or fall the wrong way.

      Likely a skull fracture. I doubt it was done with a fist. More likely a bat.

      Nikhil’s nose and some teeth were broken.

        The police further informed that “during the fight, Renuka punched Nikhil in the face. The impact of the punch was so hard that Nikhil’s nose and some teeth were broken. With heavy bleeding, Nikhil lost consciousness.”

        there’s no hint of a weapon, and the only word they use is “punch”… she has a deadly fist…

            that’s not how losing things in translation works… they wouldn’t choose the specific word that means hitting someone with a fist… the word would have become more generic, so it should be something like “struck” or “hit” and we’d be left to guess… besides, i think they speak English… and anyway, we’re not talking about my hand or yours…
