    That makes a lot of sense actually, attempting to save a panicking person will put you both in danger

      Reminds me of that guy that was trapped at the bottom of the sea for like 48 hours and when they realized he was alive the divers operator or whatever they call the guy on the radio from the base ship was just immediately like “Keep him calm! Keep him calm!” I’m just imagining the bitter irony of surviving 48h under the fucking ocean only to drown while excitedly panicking when help arrives (fortunately they did keep him calm and he did make it, just with some pretty horrific PTSD iirc).
