I was wondering what people experienced if this ever happened to them. Mostly cause I was in the cardiology theater and the doctor's were stuffing wires up people's arteries and I had to watch and seem interested, (work experience).
 
I felt so close to passing out, felt hot, my vision was blurring and had a shortness of breath that was horrific. After I felt a little better (still watching) I started vibrating a little, which was weird, just tiny vibrations, not anything crazy.

I almost passed out from running for a long time in the heat. That was scary.

Also, cardiology theater...whats that? Are you a student? Because that sounds awesome!

I never passed out due to fear, but I did fall off my chair one time after being tricked by those "What's the difference between these two pictures" flash pictures.  After a minute or so, the picture cuts to a scary ghastly dude screaming at the top of his lungs... after then I was cautious about what flash thingies I look at xD.
 
Oh.. and one time back in high school, one of my friends passed out during a biology video about someone getting a heart operation... his head made a double-thump on the desk =D.

@TechHits: A little of blood, but mostly the thought of arteries and wires getting shoved up them. But im really asking about you :)
 
@Dany: Cardiology is all about the heart, narrow arteries and faulty valves get repaired and stuff. Im just a school kid :P but yeah i guess it was kinda awesome.

Can't say I have. I believe if I ever see a spider the size of a dog racing towards me I'd probably pass out. Hate spiders!

Nope. I'm a man not a lady. Real men don't feel fear.

@ItBeStefYo: I know that but the term 'cardiology theater' made me think it was a thing you went to like a hospital to view an awesome procedure.

I'm a second year biology major with HUGE interests in human anatomy and cells. I'd love to actually see one in person.

Nope. I tend to just squeal rather than pass out when faced with something I fear.

@Dany: I WAS in a hospital to view an awesome procedure! right there at the end of the theater bed!
I'm a little surprised you haven't seen one in person if you're in your second year, I'm just in the hospital for work experience!

I haven't, but during an anatomy class in highschool, we brought in one of the school councilors in as a guest to tell us about their experience donation bone marrow- it was extremely detailed and super gory, one of the girls sitting behind me passed out and fell out of her desk.

No. 
 
I must not fear. 
 
Fear is the mind-killer. 
 
But in all seriousness, I've never blacked out. I got really close once and collapsed in university - luckily, I stumbled outside the classroom before embarrassing myself and managed to come to a few minutes later. Apparently in-depth discussions on the effects of drugs on the brain are not meant for me to hear.

No, 
But one time with my friends I watched 7 movies in 24 hours, and during the 6th I got up and sorta jogged towards the stairs to go to the bathroom, and I got super dizzy, fell to my knees, and nearly passed out.  That was fun.

Nope but if I was floating in the ocean and a great white shark came towards me I would shit myself and pass out.

I have. It was some weird thing my friends told me to try where I had to like breathe or something and after all that I had to blow on my thumb (something like that). Passed out for just a few seconds as was the intended result. Other than that though, nope.
