If the aorta becomes blocked, a person would go into a severe and fatal cardiac arrest. In other words, if there is no blood to pump, the heart will strain too hard to supply that blood, so you would have a heart attack.
The aorta is the largest valve in the heart. It can gradually become blocked due to plaque build up. This can lead to heart failure or heart attack.
Any blockage in the aorta can be fatal pretty quick. However, the closer to the heart and the more complete the blockage the faster it can be fatal.
