A classic example of what happens when you panic instead of staying calm
Updated | By East Coast Radio
Easier said than done, we agree...
We get why people always say "stay calm" in stressful situations, but that does not make it any easier to do.
Sometimes it is just inevitable to react erratically and without thinking through a response in the most rational way.
It is only human - and we cannot expect everyone to be cool, calm, and collected...
In this case though, we can understand why people acting crazy or hysterical performs so well online.
Because sometimes as much as it may be cruel to video people freaking out, it is super entertaining.
Out on what seemed like a team building event, where the team went river rafting, one of the team members got very uneasy after seeing a baby crocodile close to their paddle boat.
The video is a true display of how things don't go how you want them to go when you react hysterically instead of staying calm.
As he stands on the boat and literally jumps on top of his teammate, the boat floats toward the rock...
Ultimately, if he had just remained calm, perhaps they could've steered away from the rock like the other teams did.
But as we said, sometimes thinking calmly is not an option.
