You are walking in the park and you see a jogger fall to the ground. You rush over to help and discover that he is asleep. What medical condition might he have? What can you do to help? How would he be treated if he was to go to the doctor and be diagnosed?

Narcolepsy.
I am not sure what you could do to help aside just make sure they are out of harms way, until they wake up. Well asides from calling authorities (duh me! good point to the posters above :)).
Wikipedia has some more info:

I have no idea what he might have. I would just call 911 right away. Well, that's actually what I SHOULD do, but usually I panic in those kinds of situations. It's a good and disturbing question lol
