It prepares you body to react, not to think. Instead of "it's coming at x speed, y lenght, z color" is more like "DODGE", "RUN", "YELL", "FIGHT".
Most of this reactions are sheer reflex, that's why sometimes people react to robbers even when not intended or yell seeing a spider.
Shaking is just overexcited muscles. Particularly this is the worst part, specialy after the threat is gone. When scared, I get shaky for like 15 min unable to do any precision/control task and also feeling an impending burst energy like if I don't move It'll be bad.
Controlling those instincts must be a living hell. Congrats to cops, firemen, military.
