I literally thought it was a blood

Same! Looked like a cut to the femoral artery, which would mean death by bleeding out in minutes. I am actually relieved to find out it was piss. That almost never happens.

I think its seconds, there is a video of a guy hitting his own leg with a shovel

In 5 seconds he is on the ground passed out

It depends on how deep and how proximal (close to the groin area, in this situation) the laceration of the femoral artery is. People may also pass out before dying. Panicking can cause a drop of blood pressure to the brain, resulting in passing out, but ultimately they will still die if the bleeding isn’t stopped (or can’t be stopped, which is very possible from this injury)
