Yes it can happen to anyone anytime, but as long as you are aware you can minimize injury. Warning signs are you may feel dizzy when getting up. People who exercise a lot and dont drink as much fluids are also prone. Solution is to drink drink drink, lots of fluids like water and if you exercise alot, something like gatorade.

You need to bring your BP up, otherwise you may end up hurting yourself or others. Orthostatic hypo-tension mainly happens in older people, like >85, due to weakening heart muscle and taking meds. Please seek medical advice.
Drinking more water and increasing salt intake may solve the problem, but do it under medical supervision. Alcohol slows down the sympathetic system, so a slowdown in heart rate and the resulting BP.

Former Omo Pick a Box TV show host Regina Mutoko died as a result of a clot in the lung, a post-mortem conducted Tuesday evening revealed.
The pathologist Johansen Oduor said that Ms Mutoko suffered Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), where blood clotted in her lung and the right leg.
The condition, referred to as pulmonary embolism, could have been caused by the detachment of a clot that travels to the lungs.
Dr Oduor told Nation that other samples had also been collected for microscopy and toxicology tests.
“She had no physical injuries at all and though preliminary investigations have revealed the cause of death as DVT, we have forwarded the samples for further microscopy and toxicology analysis,” he said.

I was partly right, skeptical of a bathroom accident. What causes this killer?
