"Begin recording" as a first instinct

News stories about the Dayton and El Paso shootings featured phone videos shot be people involved in the incident. This is not unusual as most traumatic (or even quasi traumatic) events are recorded by someone whose first instinct was to pull out their phone and begin recording.
Wouldn't your first instinct be to get to safety instead of trying to capture the event on video?

I'd use mine to call for help, but that's just me.

Every time I see one of those, I think the same thing.
People nowadays look to post shite on social media to be recognized and play the “look what I did” card

I'm earning a full-ride track scholarship as my first instinct

Yeah but if you catch a good video AND survive you will get $$$, might as well let it ride

I guess "fight or flight" needs to be updated to "fight, flight, or film"

My life long dream has been to get a video I filmed of people shot and laying around in the street and in the aisles of Wal-Mart on CNN and trending on Twooter/Giggle/InstaPic/Facegram/ChatSnap.
Are you trying to squelch my dreams?

My phone is not what I would be pulling out.

I have a pen that's a camera that I keep on me every day in case something goes south.
