Pedro, Suffocation, and the 'Alternatives'
Posted By: PerseusSpartacusDate: 4/29/12 9:20 a.m.

On I'd Rather Be Surfing, we meet Pedro, the first in a long line of Cubans. As everyone knows, he claims to have suffocated:

I know what's going to happen now: you're
going to suffocate here, just like me. The
doors won't open for hours.

and...

I was trapped here like you, and suffocated.
It was very painful. You should consider ...
the alternatives.

Yet Pedro is lying in a pool of blood:

Pedro's Body

This seemingly contradicts the fact that he had died of suffocation. However, I don't think it does. I think Pedro was wounded outside of the room, and his wound was still bleeding when he suffocated. Now, obviously it must've been a pretty bad wound to have been bleeding for 2 hours.

This might explain why Pedro says 'It was very painful'. What if the lack of oxygen caused his wounds to hurt a lot more? Just a thought.

Cheers,
PerseusSpartacus
