What is a seizure like?

I have a serious question although it might seem a little morbid to want to know this. Has anyone here experienced a seizure? If so, would you be willing to tell me what it feels like? Thank you.

My husband has them-he had a gran mal. You whole body goes into convulsions, and you cannot control them. It can last from a few seconds to a minute or more. If you are ever alone, and think you might be having a seizure, or about to, you lay on your side. Not your back! You do not want to choke if you are alone. If you are able afterwards, you must call 911 to go to the hospital for evaluation why you had it.
