Life-threatening?

Any type of a beating that requires hospitalisation is potentially
life-threatening.

Human beings are terribly fragile. You can avoid inflicting death
fairly
reliably by concentrating on the extremities: knees, feet, fingers,
arms
and legs. If Mike has been practicing martial arts for all this time
it is likely
that he is able to inflict a beating upon an unarmed opponent without
killing him or endangering his life. Of course, this would be bad
practice.

It is quite likely that if such a confrontation escalated into fatal
violence
it would be because of the introduction of a weapon by the alleged
victim, Mr. Chaney who has made no secret of his love of guns.
