When we last see Shepard on the Citadel, he's on the underside of the Citadel Tower. That's right in the middle. So during the Destroy ending, the Citadel literally explodes from the center, where Shepard is. So how is he not completely obliterated in the explosion. Like, vaporized.
It knocked him back to Earth? Fat chance. He'd be a crispy pancake.
Nevermind Shepard's injuries. Shot in the gut, and he's bled out for at least twenty minutes. On top of that, the sheer proximity of Shepard to the Marauder that shot him woul have caused major organ trauma. Even if it missed major organs, it looks like it would have pierced his GI tract. Can you say "sepsis"?

In any case, he'd be dead within an hour. The breath scene makes absolutely no sense

The breath scene supposedly takes place on the citadel. Not sure how Shepard survived the explosion though. And I gather I will never find out either. It was one thing I was hoping the EC would bring light upon. But now I guess the question will be left out there, unanswered. Forever.

It's completely possible. Drifting, lost, buried under rubble like ME1. Presumably, still contained within a mass effect field of wherever he/she is.

When Shepard shoot the machine look carefully at the old and new scene. Shepard ducks back in the new scene. High EMS of course.

What. He exploded, dude. And even if he didn't, he would either bleed out or go into septic shock.

No, you're not getting it. I'm talking about when the whole fracking Citadel explodes and breaks apart. He was right in the center of the blastThe Invisible Commando wrote...

Shepard is one the Citadel, also people seem to forget that Shepard is not human. She is a cyborg. We saw that her implants can reboot(when she arrives to the Citadel)
And for a person who is wounded and bleeding she can still walk, though in pain, she can still talk, she can still shoot, she can still think and she can even run. Shepard is a tough woman, She survived. Also the conduit beam is still online. So it's not hard to send a team up there to find the bodies, which they will find. So yes it's plausible. We are shown in ME2 and ME3 Shepard is stronger then a normal human, almost as strong as a krogan because of them.

Shepard on the citadel under rubble in a location where a big object just exploded/crashed... hmm... why does that sound familiar? Oh yeah it happened in the original Mass Effect and yet no one complained about that did they?
Also the Citadel doesn't fully 'explode' the way you are thinking of, as seen in later slides and also in some of the other scenes that are shown.
Case in point with regards High EMS version... the troops on Earth get caught in the same vapor wave that Shep would've been first to get hit with and they survived. High EMS means only synthetics get effected by it.
Thus it is plausible for Shepard to still be on there.

YES thank you. She was surrounded by that giant mass effect field, maybe that saved her
Honestly, I don't know how she would survive the blast, but pleeeeeease, Commander Shepard does not die of a flesh wound. Come on, it was only a Marauder. Pff.

Citadel have kinetic berriers or something. So it's possible for Shepard to survive, as well as everyone else on the Citadel.

But he's inside the barrier with the explosion... Plus if the Citadel explodes, how do the barriers even work anymore.
Assuming the main power systems are in the center, which makes sense if you think about it, then it would have exploded as well.

What was your EMS?
There is an explosion, but the Citadel definately DOES NOT explode.

Its either on the Citadel (which I don't really know for certain because he the blast was directly infront of him and he was already wounded and had no shields......) or he's back on Earth and the breath scene is him just waking up from a really really bad dream.

If shep is on the citadel when it explodes and survives, how come they never found him, dead or alive, when they rebuild the citadel?

We are shown the Citadel post-firing at the best Destroy ending, It's just damaged, it is not blown to bits and the center piece where Shepard is, is in fact not destroyed. Shepard is in the center piece. Not the wards, not in space, not on Earth. Somewhere around where Anderson and husky timy are.

Shepard has syntethic implants after his Cerberus upgrade in ME2 and he still has some of his armour intact - therefore I think its plausible that he has allot more survivability then a normal human being

Except Bioware has already stated that if you have the breathing scene and the person refuses to put Shepards name on the wall, they find Shepard. The scene was left out so players could create their own personal scene that is to their liking Also the slides show stuff that happens in the future. The wall scene and breathing scene take place right after the war ends.IxSITHxI wrote...

Do you mean the first explosion, where Shepard is shooting the tube, or the Citadel explosion?
For the first one, Shepard is ducking from the explosion. And it stops afterwards. Second, The actual Citadel explosion is from somewhere else. Since it's not from where Shepard is, then it can practically start from anywhere. Shepard can live, esspecially since we see the Citadel explodes from the oppisite side of where Shepard is (on the Crucible side).

Look. She's inside the barrier, directly in the middle of the explosion. You cannot tell me an explosion that large wouldn't kill her. I don't care if she's a cyborg
The only issue with the first Mass Effect was that they got caught under some rubble. They didn't explode, presumably fall back to earth, and then get caught under rubble.
