When the poop hits the fan, things seem to slow down for me. I attribute that to the fact that my mind is racing, processing huge amounts of information and comparing it with training and experience to gauge reaction. In many ways it contributes to the level of 'awareness' and subsequent response mentioned above ....
Thus, when everything has 'slowed down' around you and you react, it seems not only 'calm and ordered' to you, but also to those around you.
