i was at my freinds house riding a rip stick and i fell read hard on his driveway (mad downhill) and my shoulder and elbow hurt like hell. (note-we were smoking before this do that probably had somthing to do with it) so i went inside and started to wash my finger off(scraped it hard) and i just felt really dizzy and out and i felt like i had to sit down real fast then my vision got real blurry and like fell/layed down and my freinds came over to see what was goign on. i "re-grained conciousness" for lack of better words and sat down at but couldnt see shit. my freinds told me to drink the water they got but i couldnt even see it. my vidion quickly came back then i was completely fine after that. we ended up playing a long ass game of poker. It was just really weird. ive never blacked out/fainted before

short story- ate shit real hard riding a rip stik, and went inside and besically fainted on the floor. fine now
 
Yeah, I passed out twice last saturday and went to the ER.
Haha, I was fine within 5 minutes but I went to the ER because I ruptured my esophagus skiing two weeks before and I wanted to be safe and make sure it wasn't related to that (as i spent two weeks in the hospital).
Mine was caused by the Vegus Nerve which over activated the stress receptors or whatever and caused a vasovagal syncope which is the most common form of fainting.
here are some common triggers:
Prolonged standing or upright sitting, particularly when standing with legs in a locked position for long periods of time—avoidance of long-term locking of one's legs in the standing position is taught in the military as well as in marching bands and drill teams.StressAny painful or unpleasant stimuli, such as:Giving a blood donation or watching someone give oneWatching someone experience painWatching/experiencing medical proceduresSight of bloodOccasions of slight discomfort, such as dental and eye examinations[/list]Hyperthermia, a prolonged exposure to heatSudden onset of extreme emotionsHungerNausea or vomitingDehydrationUrination ('micturition syncope') or defecation ('defecation syncope')Abdominal straining or 'bearing down' (as in defecation)Swallowing ('swallowing syncope') or coughing ('cough syncope')Random onsets due to nerve malfunctionsPressing upon certain places on the throat, sinuses, and eyes[citation needed]High altitudeUse of certain drugs that affect blood pressure, such as amphetamineIntense laughter[2][/list]
 
i think it is mainly due to the fact that i was smoking. im completely fine now though. i was fine after it happened last night too
 
sometimes blood rushing places around your body can cause this of dehydration or fatigue as well. not something you need to see a doctor for probably should chill and drink lots of water and eat some food. its all good.
 
similar experience, i was building an mtb jump in the sun once for a while and my first hit i cut my leg on my pedal so i went inside to wash it off and as i was running water on it i started to think i was gonna pass out and then bam, i fell off the stool i was standing on and was out for a few mins, super weird feeling when you first wake up
 
I gave blood at my schools red cross blood drive this year and I was like o yea I'm cool I don't need to sit around for an hour eating bagels so I got up and started walking out of the gym and fainted and got a huge rug burn on my forehead
