Shepard would have to survive:
1. The initial explosion of the red "power conduit" caused by shooting it.
2. Being at ground zero of the Crucible energy being released.
3. The Citadel being destroyed (and more than likely the Crucible) with you still on it's back once the red Beam is sent out to the Relays.
4. Re-entry into Earth's atmostphere either within Citadel debris or free falling.
5. Performing 4. succesfully without personal kinetic barriers in addition to severly damaged armor and life threatening injuries.
6. ALL Synthetic life being destroy, including Shepard's cybernetics according to the Catalyst. "Even you are partly Synthetic"
All excellent points, the last one especially bugs me.
I suppose Shepard did "survive" atmospheric re-entry once before, but he/she was in some kind of coma/stasis or just litereally dead but well preserved. It took two years and billions of dollars worth of cutting edge tech to bring Shepard alive again. You can argue that with Shepard's cutting edge tech cybernetic implants he/she could survive all of that, but the Destroy option deactivates those and debunks that arguement.
He wasent even well preserved. Cant remember who but somebody in ME2, I think its Liara, describes it as Shepard having been scattered across a large area in pieces. Only because his brain was relatively intact due to beeing protected by his helmet (which he would not have for Citadel to Earth entry in ME3) and that beyond the brain Shepard is mostly cloned tissue and cybernetics.
So yeah his chances of surviving Orbital from Citadel is 0, litterally 0.
From the pictures we get shown, h e really was more in a sort of vaccum sealed, freezdried scenario, covered in friction re-entry burns and every bone in his body broken, I say that what happened basically was Shepard gets thrown into high orbit, hangs out there for a few days or even weeks, and then starts to go into a decaying orbit before smacking into the ground, in this case, the only things that saved him were the kinetic barriors and ablative armor in his suit and helmet. So he was a little more whole than that. Just, not much.

I'm about 90% sure the "Shep breathes" scene is on the Citadel, folks. So whatever version of IT you believe in has to account for that.
Yours does. We don't need to.

Maybe old, but another thing I've never noticed before, in the breath scene we can clearly hear the wind. Which would imply the scene takes place outdoor.
Which also implies something else important. It's a place that has air, there's no wind on the citadel in so far as I know *could be wrong, after all the Presidium has it;s own climate) but there ain't no wind in space.

what? isnt summer like juni, july, august and maybe september everywhere? isnt all that connected with the distance to the sun? how could that be different anywhere on planet earth.
i wouldnt even know how to google that. when exactly is summer in china? do eskimos get spring break? do they celebrate christmas in africa?
Be patient pup, you're starting to act offensive. look up the words summer solstice.
