Answer:

Anyone can get a life-threatening blood clot.

Younger men aren't exposed to many health risks, but there is one thing that may kill a young, healthy person unexpectedly: a pulmonary embolism. A pulmonary embolism is a blood clot that originates in the deep veins of the legs or arms and travels to the lungs.
