How many people are most likely not to panic in a life or death situation?

well that is difficult to say, as everybody has different reactions to life or death situations. take a hostage situation for example, some hostages will react by staying quit and still, as if in shock. some will go into states of hysteria, and have fits, some will panic, some will oddly become very talkative. and since everyone has different reactions (this relates to most life or death situations) you cant guarantee you will get panic reaction people in the hostage group, the captor may end up with a group of talkers, or they might all react by staying quite and still.
so by this information i would estimate that maybe a quarter to a half of people in a life or death situation, e.g. a tsunami, or hurricane will slip into panic.
