I have seen it in action. A man dies on the OR table from massive trauma after being hit by a truck while changing a flat tire on the side of the road. Yes, he was a very large man. The surgeon listed the cause of death as obesity. And yeah, I asked him why. He said "because if the fat MFer could have moved in time the truck wouldn't have hit him." I REALLY hope the ME disagreed and changed that, but knowing the lazy ME in Tulsa CO, he just passed on doing an autopsy at all and went with it.
