Could Arthur (from the Merlin series) really survive that long with the wound?

! SPOILER ALERT!

So I'm just watching the Merlin series for the second time (on Netflix) And as everyone knows, Arthur was wounded in the last battle and only died days later. I wanted to ask if this was medically possible.

Are you talking about the end? If so then I can tell you that something like that would be possible. At that time people were more robust and could "plug in" more because life was difficult then, not like it is today. I'm watching Vikings right now and the Vikings have also survived serious injuries because they were robust.

No, in reality he died shortly after the battle, but was replaced by a lookalike.
