The like's not for the chance of you dying, but getting back in the harness.  My bikes have not moved for about three weeks and I'm turning into a house cat/amorphous blob.

 

Whenever I get a chesty cough, I find a hard ride really helps, so that when you're (I'm) gasping for breath a coughing fit can really help clear muck off my chest.  With the obvious risk of a good puke if I overdo it and wretch 🙄
