At least 3 times because of concussions, and once because I was put out to have tests done to me in the hospital.

The concussion times were as follows:

1) I was about 5 years old. I beat some kids at hop scotch. They pushed me into a wall.
2) I was playing soccer on a recently waxed gym floor. I slipped and slid into a wall. Continued playing afterwards.
3) I actually cannot remember the third time, but I've been told it's been three concussions so far, so I take people's word for it. >_>[/quote

Dang. 3 times? No 'fence meant, but it seems it is starting to catch up with you. Don't worry about it. I'm on my 4th. I can't remember anything under 8 years anymore :(
I have a something I like to call a "selective memory" anyway. I need to actually feel attachment to something to remember it. I'm not certain this was caused by the concussions, but it may have been. I can't even remember what I ate for breakfast yesterday, but I can remember things that have happened years ago, if they made me emotional in some way.
You're starting to sound a lot like me.

Oh dear!

Oh well, I've learned to cope. Sometimes it can be a good thing, not remembering much, except for when it comes to school. Then it can be a pain. XD

There were three times I got knocked out.

One time (and the one I chose) is because I needed to be conked for oral surgery.

Another time I got sick with the flu the day before the second round of a chess tournament I was attending and had to drop out. It was either that, or I fell asleep on the floor, I forget which.

But the kingpin of the three was when I was seven, and due to a poor choice of eating a badly made peanut butter banana sandwich, I was cleared to leave the classroom in second grade and instead of going out the door, I was so nauseated I ended up walking smack bang into the filing cabinet next to the door and got knocked out for an as of yet unspecified amount of time. One of my friends still brings it up every time we meet.

Once upon a time I was a boxer in an unsanctioned amateur club using pro rules. Fought between 147 and 160. Had no business fighting at 160. Found that out the hard way when an honest-to-God middleweight put leather to the side of my head.

I once got really fucked up by sun on one fine hot morning. I lost consciousness because I almost had a heat strike, or whatever you call it.

And then there's the martial arts sparring, I've been knocked out during friendly fights once or twice.

Not so much when it comes to drugs, I haven't been in surgery yet and my kind of "fun" drugs doesn't usually lead to loss of consciousness. Unless you count alcohol, but I rarely drink more then the required amount to get tipsy, 2-3 bottles of beer or the equivalent or so.

And I don't know if insomnia-induced "black outs" kinda count as loss of consciousness. If you don't sleep for days, you can simply fall asleep as you go and wake up moments later, it feels kinda like a mini-knockout.

I took a hockey stick to the head when I was in grade ten. Some kid brings this hockey stick to a brawl. Not cool.

Ive fainted twice, one time from too much smoke inhalation (not what you think) and the other from overworking in hot weather.

Wrestling with my brother when I was about 8 years old I think. I jumped on his back and he flipped me over him, the back of my head hit a screw poking out of the wall. No serious damage, but he told me later that I was out for a few seconds.

Surgery when I was young, I passed out completely after getting up quickly, all the blood left my head. I also passed out after a water fibre glass cast was put on my broken ankle, it got very hot and like above, the blood left my head. I once also fell asleep standing up in church, I took someone else down as I fell.

You forgot trauma. When I broke my arm the geniuses at the crappy hospital were going to send me to the nice hospital in my mom's car until I passed out in the gutter. Was only out for a minute or so but I was out cold.

Same sort of thing happened the first time I donated plasma. Also anesthesia for the broken arm and some recent exploratory surgery of the abdomen.

You shouldn't fuck around in boxing, especially when going against trained guys. Every pound can make a difference. I trained for a bitwhen I was younger and then fought against my friends (who had no idea of the sport), they were a good 30-50 pounds heavier than me and I almost knocked one out.

We just made pizza, I was standing and about to get a piece. Then I got dizzy, everything got quiet, and everything went dark. I felt myself hit the floor, but it didn't hurt. One minute later I came to and was fine.

Still though, wasn't the most fun experience I've had. But it was oddly peaceful. Its really hard to describe, but it was oddly calming. This may sound contradictory to what I said about it not being the most fun experience, but it wasn't fun. I realized what could happen and it scared me.
When I passed out it was eerily similar. It felt really good. I was almost in a trance. It was like a dream but everything felt peaceful and I saw great white colours which I was floating by...and then BAM! I'm lying on the floor. Shitty experience, but the dream like vision was worth it. I kind of felt like hugging a tree afterwards :D.
