Position the person on his or her back. If the person is breathing, restore blood flow to the brain by raising the person's legs above heart level — about 12 inches (30 centimeters) — if possible.
Loosen belts, collars or other constrictive clothing. To reduce the chance of fainting again, don't get the person up too quickly. If the person doesn't regain consciousness within one minute, call 911 or your local emergency number.
Check the person's airway to be sure it's clear. Watch for vomiting.
Check for signs of circulation (breathing, coughing or movement). If absent, begin CPR.
Call 911 or your local emergency number. Continue CPR until help arrives or the person responds and begins to breathe.

I agree that’s likely what happened. My sister is prone to fainting and she always crumples on the spot like a rag doll. Hillary’s joints were locked.
