I BET!

Wow, shot 15 times, not fun. Extremities? Torso? Vital organs?
If it's 15 shots from a .22 without critical hits, one can survive. 15 shots from a .45 would worry me greatly.

Any more details on the matter? Was he high on drugs which allowed him to drag himself into a hospital despite having 15 bullets in him?

I once worked on a guy who was involved in a drug deal gone bad, tried to run off, and was shot 4 times in the back at fairly close range. He ran the rest of the way to his car, jumped in and drove himself to our ER. He parked his car in the visitor lot across the street, walked into the department through the ambulance bay doors, walked up to the main desk, told one of the nurses "I think I’ve been shot", and only then collapsed to the floor. All four bullets were in his lung fields, two in the left lung and two in the right lung. Caliber was .38 Special, and I recall the bullets looking like semi-wadcutters on the X-ray images. He lived, but not without enduring chest tubes, etc.
