Pffffffffffft.
Funnily enough, that's exactly the noise his fancy-schmancy brakes will make after they've leaked all over the shop and he attempts to apply them just before a high speed meeting with Destiny.

Depends on the victim. In the old days, we posted a lot more patients.
Talking about fiction.
Ok, I'll bite.
What do you know about autopsies?

What does it feel like to be killed by an air embolism?
Venous air embolism? Probably feels like you've had a massive heart attack and your heart stops pumping.Arterial air embolism? Probably feels like you're having a stroke, if the air goes to the cerebral circulation. Otherwise, I imagine that, if it's large enough, it can cut off circulation to an extremity or other organ. I suppose it depends on how much air is injected, how fast, and where the injection occurs.
What are the outward signs that the victim of air embolism would exhibit before he dies of it?
Cardiovascular collapse or stroke, depending on the type of embolism.

You will experience a tingling sensation, and then death.
