In any emergency situation, especially when your life is at risk, a calm head is your greatest asset. That can be tricky, since our instincts have been honed over tens of thousands of years to warn us of danger and get us out of life-threatening situations. When you sense danger, your fight-or-flight response kicks into high gear, and the parts of your brain responsible for higher thinking and logic begin to go on standby.
For that reason, it's possible that if you're ever in a life-or-death situation, you may just do what your natural instincts press you to do: get away as quickly as possible and seek protection in numbers or authority figures trained to deal with the situation. Luckily, both of our experts explained that's largely what you should do. However, instincts aren't always right, and the best way to make the call in an emergency is to have the knowledge ahead of time needed to act without thinking. It's a tall order to overcome the natural state of panic and fear that comes with violence—but being able to make a snap decision to trust your instincts or to change course may be the thing that saves your life.
