The Great Collapse

Just noticed how much that Macmillan Cancer Support advert with the people falling over in slow motion reminds me of the ATC 70th Anniversary event at Norwich. SO MANY Cadets fainted, it was ridiculous... not the amount of time they got us to stand at ease, but the number of weak cadets there were there. About 12 kids had to sit down, about 6 or 7 fainted, one cadet who was just behind me even fell backwards, down a step onto some concrete. It was terrifying, there was a huge thud, I heard people behind me running up to him, and an ambulance turned up. He was fine, but I didn't know if he smashed his head on the ground or if they were going to stop the whole thing. Yeah, the people in the cancer advert falling in slow motion reminds me of when I would see people collapsing in my peripheral vision on that day.
