The house unexpectedly crumbled. - Mallorca Club Collapse: Understanding the Physical Response
### What's Your Reaction?
Prof. Sefrin: "There's two sides to the story:
► On the bright side, the stress could lead to a response packed with energy, unleashing immense power.
► On the other hand, it could make me freeze up completely, rendered helpless by the stress."
Can You Control It?
Everyone is unique in how they react, and it's nearly impossible to predict your own response in a high-pressure situation.
Prof. Sefrin: "So sorry, but you don't have control over what happens. Each of us has both escape reactions and complete paralysis within us - totally different from one person to the next."
What's Going on Inside You?
According to Prof. Sefrin, stress triggers the release of adrenaline and noradrenaline in your system. This can amplify your alertness for protection.
Does Alcohol Play a Role?
Prof. Sefrin: "Alcohol or drugs can definitely alter your response. But how it affects you is all about how much you've had."
Translation: If you're feeling the effects of alcohol, your reaction time might be compromised.
What Injuries Might I Suffer?
Prof. Sefrin: "All depends on how your body takes the impact. Debris can exert significant force on individuals, resulting in severe head trauma, or even ruptures of organs from the immense pressure."
