I'm thinking adrenaline. People can do crazy **** when their adrenaline is pumping. Like that grandmother who lifted a lawnmower off of her granddaughter.

EDIT: Just googled adrenaline and came across this story:

Quote:
WOMAN VS. POLAR BEAR
Adrenaline doesn't just help people lift cars. In Ivujivik, Quebec, in 2006, Lydia Angyiou wrestled a large polar bear that she saw advancing toward her son and another boy while they played hockey. Angyiou tackled the polar bear and fought it while the boys ran for help. While Angyiou suffered some wounds, the polar bear ultimately lost the fight. Angyiou sparred with it long enough that a neighbor was able to shoot the bear four times until it died.
