在混乱中或聚会上，有时会玩以下把戏：受害者被说服亢奋大约一分钟，然后他的胸部突然被站在他身后的人挤压。他通常会在几秒钟内失去知觉。一位医生在《英国医学杂志》的一个问题中描述了一种具有类似结果的手术：“一位同事最近向我提到他12岁的儿子所在学校的一种做法;这种做法被称为'昏厥百灵鸟'。“根据”给出的描述，一个男孩渴望沉迷于这种“百灵鸟”蹲在他的臀部，并采取20个深呼吸。然后他迅速站起来，用手指堵住鼻孔（就像用瓦尔萨尔瓦的方法使耳咽管膨胀一样），用力吹气。据称，直接的结果是他倒在地上，“昏迷”了大约半分钟。"
The following trick is sometimes played in a mess or at a party: a victim is persuaded to hyperventilate for about a minute and then his chest is suddenly compressed by someone standing behind him. He usually loses con-sciousness in a few seconds. A procedure with a similar outcome has been described by a practitioner in a ques-tion to the British Medical Journal:" A colleague has recently mentioned to me a practice which is current in the school attended by his son, aged 12; the practice is known as the'fainting lark.'According to'the description given, a boy desiring to indulge in this' lark'squats on his haunches and takes 20 deep breaths. He then rises quickly to his feet, closes his nostrils with his fingers (as for inflation of the Eustachian tube by Valsalva's method), and blows hard. The immediate result is alleged to be that he drops to the ground and'passes out'for a period of about half a minute."
