It's not the coma that's dangerous, it's the cause of the coma. There was one race car driver in the '70s who swerved straight into a wall (or got turned into it; nobody's sure because the cameras weren't facing it) to avoid a huge flaming accident and was in a coma for over a decade before he died.
When you're in a coma, you're essentially a human vegetable.
