    and a concussion is not the same as being knocked out cold. nice video tho
    .

    I just posted the video in the OP, and said you be the judge, I thought it was a quality video too. Apparently the person who put the video together equated being knocked cold with a concussion.

    its actually a pretty stupid video that ignores logic to push an unconstructive agenda.
