** In ''Film/RamboIII'', our hero had a chunk of debris embedded in his abdomen after an explosion and (after pulling it out) cauterized the wound by dumping the propellant from a large bullet into it and ''setting it on '''fire'''''. Given that he was climbing mountains the next day, nothing John Rambo does can surprise me.

* In ''Film/TheMatrix'', Tank is shot with a plasma gun by Cypher, causing what appear to be third-degree burns across a large portion of his torso.

* ''Film/APeckOnTheCheek'': [[spoiler:Indira gets shot through the right arm in the crossfire between the Sri Lankan army and the Tamil Tigers. Yet despite screaming out and falling over in pain when it happens, the following scenes show that she can still move that arm surprisingly well. This is despite getting the wound treated by a Catholic priest (in a damaged church where he is tending to various other civilian casualties) who realistically wouldn't have the skills or resources to heal such a wound that well that quickly.]]
