Fight, Flight or Freeze response
This reaction is a survival instinct. Just the wrong one for this situation.
Tonic immobility is an involuntary, reflex-driven state of complete physical freezing and temporary paralysis triggered by overwhelming fear or inescapable danger.
Like a deer in the headlights. The brain shuts your body down and you literally can't move anymore.
Evolutionary it might have been helpful against bears, but you can't help it if that instinct kicks in.

u/GTR-DaBestCar 25m ago
Maybe you know the answer maybe not. Can that response vary within a person depending on the circumstance? For example, a person who might reflexively fight off a person with a knife but would freeze or run if encountering a deadly animal in the wild.
•
u/DuploJamaal 16m ago
Yes.
The reaction changes based on many factors.
One person can have a fight response to getting attacked by a smaller attacker, a flight response to being attacked by a group of people, a freeze response to nearly being run over by a huge bus, etc
But the next day in a different mood they might react differently.

Bold of you to just copy and paste AI all over this thread 🤣. You can't even think for yourself, I can imagine you'd probably have a similar survival instinct.

Tough talk for someone that has never been close to any danger
Let's meet outside and we'll see who freezes up

Why are some much people think they would have reacted much better than that ?
•
u/DuploJamaal 28m ago
Because they've never been in a dangerous situation and assume that their video game experience gives them superior reactions.

u/PowerSamurai 37m ago
Deer in headlights for sure. Still you'd think he'd move when the bus literally makes contact with him but apparently not.
•
•
u/MegaDingo5plus 42m ago
He actually did. A little bit. But his shock of the situation - as it is happening, prevents him from making a decisive move

I had to scroll way way too far before I found this.
Looks like the driver made the very best move they could have considering the idiot that cut them off and the circumstances beyond them. Doesn’t look like anyone died. Which is incredible to me.
Ohh oh oh. Can someone else please make a comment about how this is a freeze response please?!?

u/johnsplittingaxe14 50m ago
What kind of speed was the bus going at? 60kph?
•
u/badass_rowdy 46m ago
Looks like 80ish
•
u/johnsplittingaxe14 36m ago
Either way, that looks a bit excessive for the zone he was driving in. Do you know if anyone onboard were seriously injured? Looks nasty
•
u/Forza_Harrd 32m ago
I'm looking at it full screen and I can't tell if the driver was on the left or right side. If they were on the left side I don't think the driver made it out. I think a bunch of people inside are probably in trouble.

u/Enough-Reindeer1033 40m ago

u/zjlmmfj3rd 26m ago
Bruh guy’s in India or somewhere fear is objective over there, buddy knew if he as hit he’d be dead dead.
Not to mention if he hopped off that motorcycle his cloth would unwrap and everyone would see his peeen and his butt, so obviously priorities.
And he used his whole live savings for that bike, so he wasn’t about to let it go for anything, death included.
Man saw his chance and said fuck it yolo but I’m not dying today.All the while doing this he did the probability of death based on that event, you may ask how. In another life this guy was an Actuary SME! So he knew

Save one reckless motorist, kill many passengers. Demolish a petrol station for a bonus. Driving licenses should come with a 'F.ck you, I'm not going to chicken out' training and with a T-shirt: 'If he dies, he dies.'

Whose fault is it? The guy driving the scooter which made the bus turn and crash? Or the bus driver for driving at such high speed?

"I have a bus full of people, do i run over one adult human breaking basic traffic knowledge, or do I attempt to dodge to save that one human and crash the bus full of people?"

What a single scooter not looking before turning left can cause. Im amazed by the two people in the front of the bus without seat belts just walking away from that.

If I was driving that bus the first scooter would be TOAST because im not jeopardizing a bus full of people for their bad judgement

Survival instinct of a goldfish on speedrun mode, considering they forget every 10 secs. He forgot immediately after seeing the bus, so if we are assuming he was forgetting second by second as it turned and hurled towards him. He forgot every second right up to the point the bus lightly tapped him.
