Don't expect to see everything be rational and realistic, it is Hollywood, after all. I don't like Phasma, but I am eager for Hux. And my brother had a theory connecting Rogue One and TFA.
1. Well of course he did his lungs were probably burned or something. Maul's lungs weren't burnt.
2. Well, do you? I'm confused.
It certainly is. I do my research.
1. But he got a whole new breathing apparatus. Maul could NOT survive. Nobody can survive being cut in half. However, it is possible for Anakin to survive, but he had all the breathing equipment. When you are cut in half, more than just your legs are gone. You have all sort of problems with veins, arteries, blood vessels, organs, etc. 2. I kind of think it could be true, but I do not believe it, as a rule.
But it still isn't proof.
The Dark Side helps you cheat death to some extent though, as Sheev Palpatine said.
Ignore everything I say, to the best of your ability.
1. But Anakin was literally saved like 5-10 minutes after that happened. Maul had no way to be saved, there was nobody there. Imagine if you were cut in half? How long do you think you would survive? I would say a couple seconds if you're lucky. Maul was dead before he hit the bottom of that pit:S:P.
Aah, we can continue our debate here.
Cockroaches can live decapitated for a week, without the Force. Maul can survive being cut in half, with the Force. We don't actually know how long after his duel he was saved, but presumably not long, due to the fact that he survived. And remember, Palpatine claimed that Sith can use their powers to cheat death to some extent.
Maul isn't a cockroach:S. Also, Palpatine was obviously lying to turn Anakin.
~l)~/\/~/-\~ The tie between real life and legos is imagination .

Well, true. And I don't think Palpatine was completely lying.

You guys are forgetting something important... The guy's a Zabrak, not a human. His entire physiology is different. Perhaos Zabrak physiology allows one to survive such an injury?

I highly doubt it, he is still humanoid. If they didn't plan to have him die in Episode I, why did they have him get chopped in half and fall into a bottomless pit? If they really wanted him alive when it was originally made, they wouldn't have done that.

Someone else who thinks his survival is plausible?
Thank you Ant!
Don't you think the Dark Side helped a bit too?

They didn't plan that at the time. They made the decision partially based on Legends comic series to bring Maul back in TCW, which was approved of by George Lucas because he felt the character was underused, given that he "died" in TPM.

Well, true. And I don't think Palpatine was completely lying.
I think he was lying completely. Otherwise why didn't he help Anakin actually save Padme if it was true?
He already had Anakin on the Dark Side, why would he want to save his wife? To complicate things? He'd have to risk his life going aboard the Tantive IV with 2 jedi on board to save her, even if he could save OTHERS from death.
aaahhh... I love Star Wars debates.

Yes, but humanoid is still not human. I mean, as far as I know, they never really delved into what differences humanoids had from humans in the SW canon beyond the obvious fact that he has horns and a couple other minor visual differences. I think it's plausible that they either have some healing mechanism or other weird difference, allowing a Zabrak to survive that type of injury. Of course, Biology is the field of science I generally consider least interesting, so I'm not exactly an expert, and if you know better for some reason, don't hesitate to correct me.
And I don't disagree that [smash]ing him was the original intention, of course it was, but I don't think that whether they originally wanted him alive is really all that relevant to whether it is plausible, as it stands.

Probably. The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.
