Обморок – это кратковременная потеря сознания в результате ухудшения снабжения головного мозга кислородом по той или иной причине.
Fainting is a short-term loss of consciousness as a result of a deterioration in the supply of oxygen to the brain for one reason or another.
Наверное, обморок хотя бы раз в жизни случался с 80% людей, а может и с 90%.
Probably, fainting has happened to 80% of people, and maybe 90%, at least once in their lives.
Например, из-за жары, усталости и т.д.
For example, due to heat, fatigue, etc.
Чаще в обморок падают девушки, так как у них обычно меньше кровяное давление в сосудах головного мозга.
Girls faint more often, since they usually have lower blood pressure in the vessels of the brain.
