I actually have thought of something that may fit with what he said happens to him. I had a friend when I was a kid whose older sister had Frontal Lobe Epilepsy, and she did have the rage with blackouts when she had seizures. She was in her teens at the time (16-17) and all of the other kids would rush out of the house whenever she started acting strange. She could be standing at the stove cooking lunch and someone would startle her somehow (tap her shoulder unexpectedly, drop something that made a loud noise, etc.) and she'd jerk a bit, start looking around, and suddenly start throwing things at anything that moved. She was known to throw frying pans, dishes, knives, coffee pots, and whatever she was holding or was within reach. The only time I saw her having one of her seizures she was screaming, cussing, throwing hamburgers, salt and pepper shakers, the frying pan, and a few other things before we got out the door.
Once it was over (usually 5-20 minutes), she'd quietly pick everything up, finish what she had been doing and never remembered any of it after it was over. She always knew she'd had a seizure by the messes, but she had just learned to accept that she had done it and clean it up. I'm not sure what ever became of her, but I know they were talking about institutionalizing her or getting her into a group home or something because they were afraid she'd kill one of the kids some day.
