> all people behave in the same way because once the reptilian survival instinct gets triggered, there's no hope of anyone behaving rationally. It's similar to drowning in a body of water. Once you start to panic, your instincts will trigger you to move any and all muscles in attempt to save yourself. In water, behaving this way will cause you to exhaust yourself and sink. In a crowd, it will cause you to shove and compress your neighbors which will trigger their survival instincts. Just like atoms undergoing nuclear fission.
