URINATING FROM FEARSome animals have the ability to urinate or defecate as a defense mechanism in dangerous situations. This behavior, known as "autonomic defense response," aims to scare or distract the predator, allowing the animal to escape.
In humans, it's not as common, but in extreme situations of fear or stress, some people may experience a momentary loss of control over bodily functions, including urination. This is due to the response of the autonomic nervous system, which regulates involuntary body functions such as heart rate and digestion.
When a person is under great tension or fear, the release of certain chemicals in the body can affect muscles and organs, including the bladder. This phenomenon is known as stress incontinence and can occur in extreme situations.
