Sudden Seizures and Shenannagans

[Ringo]

Saw this today and thought it was something for our board.

An Arabic footballer is taken by a sudden seizure and performs quite acrobatic feats but the story was circulated that he was attacked by the Angel of Death.

Video Here:Youtube Link (It's not gross or even bone crunching - just quite amazing.)

He survived apparently and went on to play more football but the video is quite freaky and reminiscient of some sort of voodoo/possession scenario.

Looks like what used to be called grand mal - big epileptic seizure.

And having re-read my original post, I just wanted to clarify that I do not intend to label sufferers of seizures as "freaky". I have never witnessed a seizure on this scale and found it quite amazing at the contortions and movements that a human body could make.

I knew what you meant! Nothing nasty about it all - anyway seizure is only a theory....

.... even though I'd back it rather than the Angel of Death.

Not least as the man seems still to be alive
