You hear people saying "You scared me half to death"

Well is it actually possible to be so scared that it actually causes you to die.

Possibly a heart attack on being frightened.

"What if I scare you half to death, twice?"

Are you dead is it possible on the second scare do you die?

I think if you do it twice, you will have a quarter of health left =) (Half of half equals a quarter.) But no, I don't think you will die.

Well being scared to death is well possible.
Scenarios:
You scare someone - They have a heart attack.
You scare someone - They fall and hit there head and die.


BOOM. :huh:

I'll give you a rundown of what that means and what it does.

Scared to death.
When you get scared, your body and brain instantly go into the "Fight or flight" Instinct, and releases adrenaline. When scared, too much adrenaline can be released, and too much can legitimately kill you.

half to death?

Only a bit is released, and then wears off. Even if you scare them half to death twice, they live.
