Glad you are well. Always make sure you observed for 48 hours after a blow to the head. Always seek medical attention after any period of unconsciousness (apart from natural sleep of course).

"You were unconscious before you fell off the bike."

This happened to a work college recently: was walking home and suddenly woke up on the ground in the park - no injury or mugging. He puts it down to the migraine tablets he was prescribed.

I think this is unlikely, as I was seen to roll into a ball as I landed. Had I already been unconscious I would have landed like a rag doll, limbs flying. Also my riding ability, particularly at any speed, makes incompetance the most likely reason for falling off ๐Ÿ™‚

I Knocked myself out a few weeks ago falling off, lost an hour of my life through amnesia.

It's very weird.

When I came round I asked the same question a dozen times

actually *out* for 15 mins, or just lost 15 mins of memory?

The former would be rather worrying, the latter is probably ok. after this flight of fancy

I was only out cold for 2 mins, but lost about half an hour of memory (no way I was getting back on a bike, for starters)

This video has put me off jumping a bit especially as I've recently been falling off more than usual! Those noises you were making sound horrible.

you've drawn the eye in on the bottom right haven't you. That's Homer-esque.

Did a nurse with a nice backside happen to walk past when that shot was being taken? Even in a potentially life or death situation, nice buttocks = eyes out on stalks.
