An anecdote said to be a true story involved a guy on a skiing trip in the Alps, who woke one night in full sweating terror; as the room in flames would physically force him out, so a mental compulsion no less strong said the same: Get. Out. NOW.
No bathrobe, no slippers, standing in the hotel hallway in his pajamas, starting to feel foolish - when an avalanche-loosed boulder the size of a car impacts the hotel and smashes his room and everything in it to smithereens.
