Hmmmm - seizures on the streets of Portland?

| No Comments

From Mr. Andy Ngô writing about the Portland riots:

From one of the comments to the tweet:

If it was a true seizure, he would have peed himself during all of that. Another quick test is to pick up his arm over his face and drop it. If it misses the face, it is fake. (Old paramedic trick I learned from my mentor.)

The arm trick is a good one. Was noticing the lack of pee in the video. Taken first aid training and had a friend back in Seattle many years ago whose girlfriend was epileptic.

Good discussion here: Pseudoseizures—the Right Approach
