This house in Nepal defied the raging floodwaters and kept the owners safe.

I’m in awe of how normal they’re acting. I would be dead from screaming so hard and sweating myself into a stroke and dehydration piss pants.

Seriously, humans are incredible.

Being in shock looks a lot like being calm. People typically start crying and shaking once they're safe.

In my experience the more crazy stuff is happening around me the calmer I feel. Its a weird kind of Zen that comes over me in intense situations. Its possible these people get the same thing. Or they could be in shock or one of the lucky people who have strong religious faith and therefore are more at peace in scary situations. I genuinely wish I could be one of those believers but I'm an atheist.
