The sudden boost of energy during emergency situations originates from an adrenaline rush. Adrenaline, a stress hormone, causes the body to either flee or fight when faced with a life-threatening situation, but can also cause one to lift huge objects with ease should it be required. An example of this is if an exit to a fire in a house is blocked by a couch, you could lift it with no difficulty.

Answer:

It is known as adrenaline rush.

Step-by-step explanation:

Adrenaline rush refers to a sudden emergence of energy resulting due to an enhancement in the hormone and the neurotransmitter epinephrine or adrenaline. It may comprise an upsurge of heart rate, perspiration, blood sugar content, blood pressure, and metabolism.

Adrenaline is considered as the fight or flight hormone. It is discharged in response to an exciting, stressful, threatening or dangerous circumstance. It helps the body to react more briskly. If the hormone gets discharged quite enough, the body then starts to remember the old connected feelings that can eventually result in a serious addiction.
