Could Julius Caeser kill MacBeth?
No, Gaius Julius Caesar, former Roman emperor, could not kill Macbeth.
It's a common belief that a Cesarean Section (aka C-Section) got its name from Julius Caesar, and that he was born through this method, but historical evidence shows that this was very unlikely to actually be true. At the time, C-sections were almost guaranteed to be fatal to the mother; the 10th-century encyclopedia The Suda says that Julius' mother Aurelia died when he was born after they cut her open. The big problem with this account is that... that's not what happened at all? Aurelia not only survived childbirth, but went on to be an advisor for her son when he became emperor. There's no solid historical evidence that we have that suggests Caesar's birth was anything out of the ordinary.
In fact, it's probably more likely that Caesar got his name from Cesarean Section, not the other way around. Historia Naturalis, a work of Pliny the Elder from the first century, talks about a Caesar that was born this way (most likely an ancestor of Julius), and says that he "was so named, from having been cut from his mother's womb," which suggests the name Caesar is derived from the Latin word caedere, meaning "to cut," and/or the Latin word "caesones" which specifically referred to children who were born by being cut from the womb. (That is just a theory, though- don't take my word for it, I am a gimmick blog.)
So, with being born normally from his mother Aurelia and being male, Julius Caesar does not qualify on any grounds to be able to kill Macbeth.
Thank you for your submission!

I don't care what official translations say, I chose to believe "Et tu, Brute?" translates to "What the FUCK, Brutus?"

For him to survive, the bandages need a higher percent than the blood lost percent
If Brutus gets exactly 69 percent, Caesar automatically dies
If Caesar loses more than 40 percent of his blood volume, he dies.
