In very extreme intense situations my brain seams to slow down time and automatically know what to do, yeah im sure most of you are saying "bull" but it's the truth.
I don't doubt that you experience the sensations, but research shows that it's an illusion - it doesn't enable you to make more or faster decisions.

There's lots more peer reviewed research here on memory, perception, & whatever else scientific one desires to study:

Force Science Institute is another source of info regarding physically/psychological effects of stress, specifically it's impact on perception & decision making in defensive encounters.
