Have you ever had epilepsy? (not sure how to translate. Epileptic crisis?)

I've had seizures or whatever it's called twice in my life. Once when I was 10 or 11, and one last year.
They were not light-induced, so I can play video games Very Happy

1st time : I was in some inflatable thing where you jump around. This one was like an obstacle course with a slide at the end.

I then thought : "Hey, it would be fun to slide on my knees!" And I did.

I bounced from the top of the slide, and crashed on my nose.
Even if the slide wasn't in metal, I got hit pretty hard. I felt very dizzy and eventually fell down,
having seizures, being semi-conscious (I could hear people talking).

2nd time : It was at school. We were playing badminton.

At one time, I stretched my arm a lot to try hitting the ... pigeon?
I felt something in my neck (a nerve probably got stuck or something like that).
A few seconds later I was having seizures for 20-30 seconds.

Fun Fact : This is the only school day I missed that year (not even a single snowstorm)

Not So Fun Facts : - Rarely being sick = Rarely missing school
- That year sucked

I passed out playing goalie in an inline rink once. Does that count?

Seriously, 95 degree weather + tin building + 300 pound guy wearing 20 pound of goalie gear is a bad mix.


There never was an image here, what the fuck are you talking about?

one day a pal and I were in a resteraunt. this guy jsut walks up to our table, says "I'm about to have an epileptic seizure. don't call an ambulance, I have no insurance."

he then lays down on the floor, has a seizure, gets up and thanks us, and walks out.

I heard that Napoleon had minor epilepsy. That's the reason why he would keep his hand in his coat, so his men wouldn't see his hand twitch. I'm not sure if this is true, but makes sense.


RIP Hacker.

Napoleon was also phobic about cats. He found one in his bedchambers once and I think he ran it through with a sabre.
