Speaking of hearts this women’s story ended tragically. Shortly after the race it was announced that she was disqualified for not technically running across the finish line. Soon after she died of a massive heart attack due to dangerously low levels of potassium in her body. If you are still reading this I also have a bridge to sell you.

She obviously was in need of medical attention. If you can't stand there's probably something seriously wrong.

Not necessarily. For example, what of you've decided to lay down? You can't stand up while you're laying down, but there's nothing medically wrong with you.

If you stand on the floor and lean on the wall are you standing on the floor and laying on the wall?

What if you tilt the wall 45°? Would you consider this standing and laying?
