300% mortality for surgery must be some sort of record. But why would someone with such a delicate constitution as to die from observing be watching surgery in the first place?

One would struggle to have both speed and control with a large blade like those. Collateral injuries did happen on occasion but thanks for not repeating the legend as fact.

Interesting. I'd heard of him but not that it might have been envy, jealousy etc. Very good

So funny! And most likely so true about the gory stories being made up. The challenges of living the life of a trailblazer!

So three times the number of his patients died from his surgery?
Was it infectious, or what?
