I just saw a lad having a full blown grand mal seizure in the middle of the queue for the checkout in Boots. Seriously. He just went completely rigid, as if all his bones and muscles had turned to stone, and then started to tilt quite alarmingly. The chap in front and woman behind both grabbed him and lowered him to the ground, and the moment he was horizontal he started fitting. God, the poor guy. It looked awful - especially because it was so very public, with cashiers running to help/get help, and customers standing around gawking. I kept walking rather than join the gawkers, so didn't see the final outcome or how bad it got. I hope he's okay.
