Say you were put in the same situation. Could you conjure up the will to amputate your own arm? Personally, I admit, I would rather just die of thirst.

Never saw that, but no I would not cut off my own arm most likely.

@monsterstomp: Possibly, but the deserts a big place and mountains have many places to for people to check. really that's a no win situation. couple days in the heat no water or food, bad. No arm bad.

I rather die trying sort of thing

I really don't know. I mean, the blood loss would be tremendous. And I really do like my arm.

It would be hard, but my life is more important than my arm. Arm is kinda useless if I'm dead.

Left arm? Off with the arm.

Right arm? Die.

Amputate your arm in the desert? So, you lose a lot of liquid, you're probably going to be in considerable pain, and you have to deal with the enviornment? Either way you'd probably die..

Intangibility would make it pretty easy to escape.

Yeah, I'd imagine that i'd be more terrified of dying alone. That, and I'd really want some steak.

Being ambidextrous certainly benefits in this situation.

No. I wouldn't want to die due to dehydration though. Might as well take a sharp rock and cut my arm and bleed out.

That was a tendon. I was wrong actually, it was the ulnar nerve.

I like to think I would, but I feel like I'd end up passing out and dying in my state of unconsciousness.

Ah thanks for the info. I just assumed it was a nerve because of the sharp sound when he plucked it in agony.

@monsterstomp: My right arm's gotten me paid. Without that, I really don't offer anything else...

And with that I'll be using my left arm a lot more now.

If my life depended on it. I would sooner loose my limb than die of starvation in such place.

I don't know. The problem isn't that my right arm is used for everything. I just don't know if I could actually take the pain. I MIGHT have the balls to do it if I start thinking about my family and them might not ever know what happen to me...
