Seems like a bit of a panic reaction to an overheated workman's drill.
In multicultural London he may have had the look of somebody who could
potentially be a suicide bomber whose device hasn't actually gone bang
yet but is on the way there.
Also though it may be non PC to say it I wonder if there was any basis
for the so called " still upper lip" the British were supposedly
renown for in decades past but now vanished with the many of those
from different backgrounds being more excitable.
Could be, but looking at the pictures I think its more a generational thing.
Millenials seem to be a bunch of cry babies in general, witness their
neverending public moaning and complaining about Brexit.
