M45 Fragmentation Grenade (Today's Standard Issue NATO hand grenade) has a kill radius of 3 meters (9 feet) and a blast radius of 5 meters (15 feet). So anywhere in that range you are bound to either get hurt severly by shrapnel or die. The M19 Frag Nades used in WWII were worse; they spat out shrapnel more than todays, thats what those little carved boxes are for.
