ECG of the Week - 14th April 2014 - Interpretation

This ECG is from a 67yr old male. He had no cardiac history and presented following a minor fall whilst intoxicated.
Someone will likely ask why the ECG was performed, I don't know. I suspect it is one of the 'because we can' ECGs that we all see on a daily basis.
