Probably a severed femoral artery. Only takes a few minutes to bleed out.
Too bad they didn’t apply a tourniquet. He might have survived and only lost the lower leg.

He would have survived AND kept the leg, no problem. Almost everything they used to teach about tourniquets is out of date. The sandbox wars have resulted in a far better understanding about saving folks from bleeding out.
