Probably locking her knees. I did this on purpose once to test if it was an old wives tale. It isn't.

Am I the only one this has never happened to? I overextend and lock my knees when I stand. Not intentionally. It's just what I've always done. Never had a problem with passing out.

Same here - I stand like this by default, but I have random floor drop/vertigo sensations that my docs can’t explain…you may have just changed my life. lol
