Bryson didn’t act at all like he had any kind of seizure.

Totally disagree (in the sense that I am refusing to rule it out as a possibility). Several decades ago as I did grad work in one of the premier institutes of Neuro Psychology in North America, it became abundantly clear that any type of behavior humans ever exhibit, can be expressed during or immediately following a seizure. Any imaginable kind of thought disorganization or other psychiatric manifestation can occur, as well as criminal behavior in otherwise law-abiding persons, often followed by a degree of amnesia (and not just on the witness stand). And yes, I have epileptics in the family also.

Good Lord, Epilepsy is not a conspiracy. Welcome to real life. The posts in this thread are very disturbing to me. There is way too much ignorance when it comes to epilepsy and seizures. I’m epileptic. I have seizures 2 - 6 times a week. I cannot work because of them, cannot drive because of them.

There are 60 types of epilepsy, and what most think of as falling down and shaking is only one type. As steve86 said, any kind of human behavior can happen as a result of a seizure.
