“Fight-or-Flight Response”

Fight or flight response is known for an acute stress response. Basically, the response prepares the body to either fight or flee the threat. It is also important to note that the response can be triggered due to both real and imaginary threats. In this video you will see a great example of “fight-or-flight response” of a Chinese Father leap out of moving car to save his child.
