Some people get way too comfortable because they only ever run into people whos default reaction is "flight" because they forget that there is another reaction type that some of us have called "fight".
My little brothers learned really fast that jumpscare "pranks" on me were a bad idea because when someone jumps out at me I tend to react by striking. Probably because I had an older brother growing up that "jumped" me all the time going up so I got used to doing things that way.
