There's studies on this from the military with comparison to apes. At root, humans are still social animals, so when threatened, we freeze, flee, or submit. Don't move -maybe they won't see you. Run, maybe you can escape. Submit, maybe they will decide not to hurt you.

Overriding those instincts requires training -often to the point where the actions are taken before the instincts are even recognized. After action reports from ambushed soldiers relate the soldiers charging the ambush (as trained) while in a fugue state they have no memory of.
