READ MOREAs a calm and collected person, you're very good at calming a situation down and avoiding panic during times of crisis. You never act brashly or irrationally, and would rather spend time coming up with a viable plan, instead of just acting on impulse with very little thought.

READ MOREDuring times of crisis, you turn into an entirely selfless person, and will do anything to help others in need. While many others end up only thinking of themselves and their families, you are busy being the good Samaritan that every crisis needs.

READ MOREYou're a natural-born problem solver, and not even a major emergency can change that! You don't like putting your life in someone else's hands, so you'll try and come up with your own solutions whenever you can. Instead of blindly following a crowd, you'd much rather locate a window or exit that people have missed in the panic. You never give into hysteria or despair, as you know that your quick-thinking mind can get you out of practically any solution, as it has done many times before.
