I was doing some first aid on someone who had had an epileptic fit, and smashed their head on something. It was all in a parking lot, so I got someone to run over to a coach and ask for their first aid kit, which all coaches should carry. The random guy comes running back with it, everybody is looking sombre, I was telling them to cheer up, as it was only a teeny injury, nothing serious, perhaps a couple of stitches. I started cracking some jokes (not the "what is blue and doesn't fit" one) and strangely enough it worked, even had the casualty laughing when she came around. It is quite amusing when I look back it.
Hint: Dead epileptics turn blue.
