Harriet Tubman suffered from blackouts, or "trances," as a result of a head injury she sustained during her time as a slave. The injury occurred when an overseer threw a heavy weight at another slave and struck Tubman instead. This head injury caused recurring health issues throughout her life, including seizures and episodes of unconsciousness.
