How are they able to perform well under intense pressure? Literally life or death situations. I’m talking about hardcore parkour or crazy people climbing skyscrappers.

Have their brains been altered that they can’t feel fear from their stunts?

      Thanks for the alternate source!

      Yup, they measured that. This one individual wasn’t experiencing any sort of fight-or-flight in that tube. I’m going to say we can’t draw much in the way of big conclusions. Reminder again that activation just means how hard it’s working at a given moment.

      Honestly, the testimonials from ex-girlfriends is more interesting to me.
