I think that might be overstating things just a bit. I mean, that would logically imply that the crowd at a baseball game (who are in very little danger, except possibly of being hit by a foul ball) should be deathly afraid.
It would also logically imply that, if there were a nuclear missile launched at, say, the D.C. area, and the public learned of it, the amazingly intense fear that I'm reasonably sure would result (I know I'd be pretty damn scared) would not be justified.
