My Lodge had a MM Degree conferral last evening. I was serving as Senior Master of Ceremonies as our appointed SMC was away on business.
After the Oath And Obligation and during the Grip Dialog, the Candidate fainted! Luckily the SW, SD and I were there to help him onto the floor and we used the "kneeling cushions" to raise his legs. He came around quickly and was more embarrassed than anything. After about 10 min or so he felt well enough to continue and he was certain that being extremely nervous was the root causse.
As a result of these issues this was the first time any of us could recall someone being raised twice in the same Degree conferral!
