There is a cruel case. During World War II, the Nazis did a living experiment: they blindfolded a prisoner of war, stretched out their hands, and then told him to bleed until the blood ran out. Of course, they cut his wrist with an ice knife, but there was no real bleeding, and they opened the water pipe prepared in advance and let the water drip in the pipe below, as if there was really blood dripping. Two hours later, people found him dead, the cause of death was excessive blood loss.
