Without a stomach you can live without it because surgeons attached the esophagus directly to the small intestine

11 minutes without a heart that’s enough time to do five in a half 2 minute dances because 2+2+2+2+2 equals 10

So many of these make literally no sense. What do you define as "alive"? Because without a brain you are literally instantly dead from any practical interpretation of the word. Your lungs are controlled by your brain so why you would die faster without lungs is a mystery to me. I guess because your lungs still absorb a bit of oxygen? Not sure if your heart would even beat at that point though. Definitely makes no sense that you'd live longer with no heart than no lungs if your heart literally transports the stuff your lungs makes. Why is the nose 70 years? How is that different from a lifetime? How can something be survivable but only for 70 years? What actually causes death in this scenario? How do you survive for 6 years without a stomach? How would you digest food? If you had an alternative method to digesting food why would it stop working after 6 years? The mouth one only makes sense without medical intervention but how would you survive not having a stomach for 6 years without medical intervention? High risk patients with bone marrow damage can die within 5 months so how does losing all of your bone marrow only cause death after 3 years?

The only ones that make sense are the appendix, kidneys, anus, heart and liver. Instantaneously losing all of your blood vessels, bones or skin are such bizarre events that I can't even begin to imagine how long death from those things would take. I imagine losing your skin would be a bit of a slower death than losing your heart though
