a pet peeve of mine is when people refer to this as a "blackout." a blackout is when you go about your day and do not remember a thing about it afterwards.

very true. like when luis guzman talks about coming to, standing over his boss after apparently beating him and not remembering it ("dont go there" scene in Anger Management with adam sandler)


OP, this is just standing up to fast. i use a gravity bong, and when i lean down to hit it,
and after so long of leaning down, i stand up and get this.

all it is is almost fainting due to standing up too fast.




"The answer as some people have already mentioned is blood rushing out of your brain. The amount of oxygen and glucose dramatically decreases and you pass out because your brain cells don't have enough of it --- hmm I wonder if that is true?? I mean when you get up to a standing position you instantaneously feel dizzy and in severe cases you pass out immediately. I cannot image that our brain cells cannot withstand a few seconds of low oxygen and glucose. The other thought is whether the actually drop in blood pressure causes some reflex in our body to shut your brain down and make you pass out. Evolutionary this would make sense. Since by passing out ie laying on the ground blood flow to the brain returns because when you are laying down gravity is not working against blood flow to you brain. So the concensus is blood rushing out of the brain but I'm not entirely clear based on the above answers anyone knows the exact mechanism of how this occurs."



its called Postural Hypotension.

Wiki Article

if it happens quite often, consider seeing a doctor.
 
when i take gravity bongers this is what i'm trying to acheive....
fainting is sick; i've only managed to do it a few times, and its always a pleasant surprise.
Sometimes its right after i hit it, other times its a second later
