mm, I don't think I ever panicked, but I used to fear dogs when I was a kid and I seem to remember shacking legs at some point. Though I also remember dreams of feeling unable to move out of fear. So a little of both 3 and 4, I guess. With extreme tension, I'd definitely would expect a tremor.
I can't recall my legs ever shaking or wobbling. I do get the 'butterflies in the stomach' thing though when I'm anxious about something.
They get ready to fight, like the rest of me. It is, of course, trained behavior. When I was younger, the knees just turned to jelly.
I don't panic. Or at least I haven't so far . . . Fear tends to make me freeze, tho. I imagine that's not uncommon.
Mines grow stiff. Comes from my youth when the elders would tell us to "Stand your ground and never back down Doesn't help much when your a child facing some huge dog that wants to bite you in half !
Yup. Either none of the above, or I don't notice it. I don't think my knees do much of anything, but I do get the knot/butterflies in my stomach.
I get scared. Anybody that said they don't experience fear is a liar or has severe mental problems. But, I've done and seen enough to make myself keep thinking and keep moving (regardless of if it's to or away from danger).
When I'm scared I tend to freeze up and feel like knots of steel wire are wrapped around my insides. It takes a couple moments to belay the initial fear and from there I'm capable of acting even in fear. Then eventually the fear just subsides and I keep going.
