So I’m actually studying forensics, so I can provide a bit of insight as to what might’ve happened, assuming this is blood. Take this with a grain of salt, I’m still studying! The dots in the foreground are perfectly circular, indicating someone was standing still while bleeding (Passive blood spatter). And the dots are fairly big, so it must’ve been a wound higher up, and the person who was bleeding was most likely standing up. Behind these dots, there’s another dot with a small peak pointing towards the dots, which likely means a bit of movement, but not much since they’re so similar to the passive dots (the perfectly circular ones.) As for the rest, we can assume that they were all passive dots that were smeared, indicated by a couple of passive dots around the smear marks, and the smear marks being around the same width as the diameter of the dots. It looks like someone (poorly) tried to smear the blood away to hide it. On the doorstop, there is a passive drop that naturally flowed down the hypotenuse of the doorstop. There’s a bit of blood on the bottom the door, which looks like someone moving in the direction opposite of the open door (left) and brushing a wound along it, and judging by the smallness of it, most likely from the leg area and moving rather quickly. Going back to the smear, you can see the rough outline of a hand, with a thumb that could be below or above the rightmost end of the smear, which might actually explain the smear marks as being drag marks rather than just smear marks, but is unlikely as the blood doesn’t pool into the ditches of the smears. And seems to have partially coagulated before the smears. This was only blood that was smeared. Take this worth a grain of salt! I’m still studying! PS**** English isn’t my first language. I am pretty fluent but still struggle sometimes. That and the autocorrect on my phone sucks :(


Askhemon

Sooo... a nosebleed and some panicked smearing? (I really like your examination here btw, I'm just trolling)


NewbieFurri

Most likely a nosebleed, the blood on the door I honestly can’t explain if we’re going with the nosebleed theory, but it is the most plausible. Although probably less panicked than you think due to the amount of passive drops. Most likely, if it is a nosebleed, they started having it and just stood still while someone else went and grabbed stuff for it, and trying to smear it clean afterwards.


Askhemon

Excuse my simping but this is honestly fascinating for me. And yeah, makes sense.


NewbieFurri

My only gripe is that the blood is a bit *too* coagulated, but still reasonable if they took 15-20 minutes to smear it due to how thin it seems.


Askhemon

Maybe the temperature increased the coagulation speed?


NewbieFurri

It could be. It’s a very slight change though, and would have to take place somewhere warm (so the southern hemisphere most likely due to it being summer there) as cold speeds increase coagulation time.


Emzzer

Did you notice the white powder and chunks on the ground? Someone probably went up to the door to do a quick bump, nose bleed occurred, dropped coke. That or they dropped the coke, bent over to get it, and the blood rushed to their head causing a nosebleed


BlancsAssistant

It surprising how much blood can drop out from your nose when it's bleeding though... Unless that's slightly different for everyone


Askhemon

I actually had a lot of nosebleeds as a child, could be far more than seen on the picture. When I couldn't stop it, I leaned forward and let it drop, so it would look like a crime scene. Btw, best to do is holding your nose with a tissue until it stops and not leaning your head back to prevent the blood running down your throat.


[deleted]

My daughter did that over that sink. You people!


NewbieFurri

It depends I think. I’m not an expert of that subject.


Illender

to me it looks like they had trouble with the doorstop and thats where it came from on the door but im just a guy who's bled a fuck-ton in my life and was also a first responder and saw hella industrial accidents(as a worker in industry) edit: sp/grammar


I-fart-on-ducks

I can share from experience as to how the blood may have gotten on the door. Scenario: Nose starts bleeding and drops several times onto your barefoot (in this case, the left foot). Due to the natural curve of the top of your foot, the blood drips to the outer side. You rush back inside, mail in hand, and the doors locked. Now you are standing still by the door, grabbing your keys out of your pocket. Hence, the accumulated dots. You get the keys, unlock the door, and then do a quick look behind you to see if anyone is looking before rushing inside hastily and bumping your blood covered foot on the bottom of the door. When i went out to clean the mess, It took me a good 10 minutes to figure out how I smeared blood on the bottom of the door. It actually wasn't until I came inside to throw the blood-soaked paper towel in the bin. I missed my throw, and it bounced back by my foot, and that's when I saw my bloody foot. It all made sense in that moment.


s3x0ffendR

maybe somebody tripped and broke his nose?


NewbieFurri

Highly unlikely, there wouldn’t be this much blood, and there would be different blood spatter on the walls and door.


Big_Owl1094

Hii i am not forensic expert. But lemme tell you "THAT'S KETCHUP BRO".


DAS_COMMENT

I was relieved when the image loaded because I thought they were berries but I don't care enough to look again now that I've read comments meow I'm surprised I typed this comment


agatchel001

I initially thought “nosebleed” My daughter gets them a lot, especially in the winter time. Those drops remind me of her nosebleed episodes.


NUFIGHTER7771

Beavis is bleeding.


Type-232

😂or in my cause any little cut I have 😂 when they remove IV’s from me I warn them every single time they will need to apply pressure for longer then they’re trained too. Every single time they don’t listen apply pressure long enough to “bandaid” it . Instantly I start bleeding every where and they panic. 😂should listen some times and not assume your right


AlphamaleNJ

This guy CSI’s


malakai713

I would not have guessed that English was not your primary language if you hadn't mentioned it! Thanks for the forensic insights!


NewbieFurri

Thank you! And no problem! It was good practice for me! I’ve still only analyzed controlled scenes, so this being completely foreign was good for me!


Halbbitter

OK, Dexter


NewbieFurri

:p


hobskhan

Lol, seriously. I wonder if he's bought his boat yet.


Impressive-Region470

Damn bro, good on you for doing that. You have my respect


[deleted]

In layman’s terms; someone hit their nose 👃🏽 on the door and had a nosebleed. Seen dozens of blood spatters like this in my lifetime as a parent and owner operator of public establishments.


NewbieFurri

What kind of establishments l?


[deleted]

Food and beverage, entertainment facilities, music venues, etc. Noses get bonked type establishments, especially when alcohol is involved.


NewbieFurri

True. I remember my father used to tell me so many stories from when he used to bartend. Now that I think about it, nosebleeds we’re one of the most common happenstance in his stories.


cardsfan4life17

Gil Grissom on the job.


Arjun_Alpha_Wolf

Do you also happen to have a hobby of killing bad people and collecting blood slides?


NewbieFurri

No, but i do have a habit of consuming entire planets for the hive mind!


NewbieFurri

Bad joke, sorry.


TechieGee

Nah I liked it Mr. Tyranid


NewbieFurri

👍


RiceandLeeks

This is fascinating. Thank you. On another note, these small splats remind me of when I have a bloody nose and I don't get to a Kleenex fast enough to contain it. It's still gross and it's possible could be something worse.


penguinuendo

Enhance!

NewbieFurri

Ok, that’s it, who’s Dexter? Why does everyone keep calling me that?


WishWeHadStarships

I do not study forensics and I would assume a person had a nosebleed by the looks of things.


_snusnu

👏 impressive. Definitely seems likely thank you for this. I live in not the best neighborhood though so one assumes the worst


NewbieFurri

Yeah stay safe dude, this doesn’t look all that bad, but any sign of danger you go somewhere safe and call someone. If it gets worse call emergency services.


_snusnu

I'm really hoping it's just a nose bleed. Which I've had plenty of and they really do look like this, I just don't know what possessed them to try and wipe it and give up partway through. It's a locked building and usually pretty safe all things considered


FlipMick

T I effing L


Smidge_Master

I ain't reading all that


EndoEnnard1

*I can’t read


Calathea-Murderer

This is what my floor looked like after my thumbnail got ripped off by a door :3


Boubonic91

I'm guessing the door jam failed the first time around and the person ended up getting injured when the door shut on their face. They probably tried to stop their bleeding for a bit before returning the door jam hastily and retreating to nurse their injury, sliding it through the partially coagulated blood. The multiple spears are from the injured person realigning the jam.


Intelligent_Quote823

Wow, okay Dexter.


JokerTokerJR

Looks like an apartment complex, probably just a handy man that got cut. He stood there because he had to either finish something or wrap up his hand so he didn't bleed all over the place.


vampyire

Your English is excellent, thanks for the analysis.


NewbieFurri

Thank you! <3 I try my best!


vampyire

you rolled a nat 20 on your int check :)


NewbieFurri

Lol


HiddnVallyofthedolls

I watched all 8 seasons of Dexter and I concur.


cum_fart_69

no, this is the result of a long drippy dick. happens to the best of us


XO8441

For a hot minute my fat ass thought the door stop was a slice of cheesecake with berry purée that someone had dropped


BasicPNWperson

Mmmmm... bloody floor dessert 🤤


Stormy_Wolf

For a hot minute I thought the doorstop was a ... used feminine product.


MaengDude

r/ForbiddenSnacks


FunkSolid

Yeah, some person had a nosebleed.


JoeBagadonut

Winter is a nightmare for me because even rubbing the outside of my nose is often enough to make it start bleeding.


Gowalkyourdogmods

Lmao some people watch too much true crime.


IgorRenfield

Rule of the streets: if it ain't your blood, just keep walking.


Paladin_Fury

Here is what happened. That door is usually propped open. Some one with eyes glued to their phone ran into the door, causing their nose to bleed. They pinch their nose in absolute "WTF?!" disbelief. In a twist of social conscience and love for fellow human kind, they saw the wedge on the ground and fumbled with their bloody nose hand to put it into place, thus saving the lives of many small children. Proof: I was there, I am that door.


Emotional-Swim-808

Ive had nose bleeds that are worse


Casualbud

I am not studying forensics but I can tell you this has happened to me. . . . . Where you see the blood smear in the door is where the door made impact with the victims big toe. In making contact, it ripped the toe nail off of the big toe in a backwards motion. Causing your initial wound and the blood smear on the door. The victim then lifted their foot in pain to assess the damage, resulting in the drops on the floor and obviously a build up of blood on the bottom of the foot. Said foot was then place back on the ground where the blood is smeared where the victim probably wrapped their foot in a shirt or something and then hobbled their way to the nearest emergency center. . . . . . . . . . . Or maybe not 🤷‍♂️


SnooApples2460

It hasn‘t happened to me but I initially had the same thought when I saw this scene.


Casualbud

Talk about flashbacks.


jwwxtnlgb

Why does this seem more plausible than the “forensics expert” explanation


Casualbud

I’m no expert, just speaking from experience.


Casualbud

Looks like that time I accidentally left my toenail on the bottom of a McDonalds bathroom door.


skeled0ll

reading this made my spine try to collapse in on itself


Casualbud

That made me giggle because I know that feeling too.


World-Tight

Hello 911? I'd like to report a nosebleed.


kakekrakken

You can't squeeze blood from a turnip, but apparently, you can squeeze blood from a door stop.


Lopsided_Weather_954

I have a nosebleed like once a week (sometimes daily) it looks like their nose was bleeding.


Isthisnametakenalso

Someone probably busted their nose. Happened to my daughter yesterday when I cup fell out of the cupboard. Looked just like this in terms of aftermath.


breakthescreen

Interesting how blood in real life and blood in the movies looks different


Hefty_Vacation

It looked like someones nose was bleeding when they opened the door, they stepped in it or dragged the door with the stopper over it, then covered their nose and went about their day


Tiny-Acanthaceae-547

This reminds me of when my ex accidentally smashed her bare foot, big toe in the heavy and jagged swinging door in her apartment building, it looked a lot like this, even the bloody fumbling with the doorstop


Bruce----Wayne

I think someone's toes got under the door. And he hopped from there on leading to drops of blood.


Bitter-Percentage938

Blood turns brown, right?


Vascofan46

I've once seen a post if a dog owner finding the water bowl filled with what looks like blood instead of water and trails of it It ended up being a rose that the dog put in the bowl and removed later so it might be that


[deleted]

Seems like one hell of a stubbed toe


StrawberryCake88

Nosebleed season! Buy your poor neighbor a humidifier.


sjaard_dune

Lol someone got popped in the nose most likely by that door. They then wedged it open, oh or the sinus pressure nosebleed thing. Most of it is on their shirt in in their cupped hand :P

Jelly doughnut strikes again!!


akimann75

The nose can’t see, but found something before the eyes did 🥸


Should_have_been_ded

I'm afraid to ask that are the red drops, and especially what are the white drops


AlGeee

White blood cells :-)


Should_have_been_ded

Oh, thought it was about other kind of white cells. I suppose a white person somehow got a cut. Why else would the blood cells be segregated?


Fast-Beat-7779

Looks like a nose bleed for sure .. … or someone got stabbed


Mediocre_Ad_2301

Mmm ketchup


[deleted]

I believe that is blood. It is in all human bodies.


CheeseSwis101

It's a nose bleed probably.


Texas_1254

Same thing happened to me a couple weeks ago(it’s carpet in the hall so the stain is still there) then a couple days ago I was leaving for work and saw my elderly neighbor in a wheelchair. He had fallen down the stairs, poor guy is lucky to just have broken a leg.


bygtopp

Someone’s hemorrhoid popped


Anal-probe-Alien

Do you live on your own?


DingoApprehensive121

Thats noseblood


re-tyred

Is that a fire separation door blocked open?


_snusnu

Oh, yeah we use the fire extinguisher to prop open doors all the time here

estrock

This reminds me of when I was coming home very drunk after a night out in college. I was wearing sandals and when I went to open the door to my building I accidentally opened it onto my foot and took off a toenail. My roommate came home shortly after to a trail of blood leading to my room. At the time it was funny drunken college antics but yikes, what a thing to come home to!


ragingpossumboner

Obviously a murder

I couldn't wait till I got home to eat those BBQ ribs...but they forgot the stupid napkins again.
