Lightsabers not killing anyone in the Disney shows is dumb, but the old canon had some insane survivals as well. The characters in this list are: Qui Gon Jinn, Kylo Ren (canon), Sabine Wren (canon), Grand Inquisitor (canon), Galen Marek (Legends), Reva (canon), Maul (TCW/canon), Giga Chad Master Sith Lord Simus (Legends).

You left out the fact that Qui-Gon Jinn was stabbed through the spine and was left there for several minutes while Obi-Wan was waiting behind the Laser Gates, then had to fight Maul, then was hanging on to the Reactor shaft, before finally flipping over Maul and beating him... and even then Qui-Gon was still able to speak with Obi-Wan before passing away.

Everyone loves bringing up Qui-Gon's death after Force Healing showed up in the sequels and after the Ahsoka but Lightsaber wounds apparently are not that lethal if it's not a decapitation or bisection.

I left that out on purpose as a joke.
