Beware of the Sun

[SS CHIC]

Last Friday, I was at the gun range, I got there about 12:40. I get there I hadn't eaten or drank anything. I then started my course of shooting and about 35 or 40 minutes into it, I pass out! It was the ugliest feeling in the world, I would have fallen to the ground but my instructor was next to me and caught me before I fell. I couldn't walk, talk or see for a while. It took me about an hour to fully get my eyesight and balance back. It was the scariest feeling for me!

Guys who work in the sun, becareful and keep hydrated and food in ur systems!

Been there, done that. Not fun. And before someone has a smart-ass Canada remark, YES it does get that hot here.

Sorry to hear about your situation, but glad youre ok. I passed out in the middle of a friggin book store one time. Woke up to my buddy beating on my chest like I was having a heart attack. Called the ambulance, waited for 30 minutes, they never showed so I dipped out. Good times had by all
