You guys make it like moving out of the way from a ball coming at your knees isn't reflexive.

That Turang could tell his brain in that tenth of a second to stay in there when he's been conditioned for 20 years to move out of the way is almost impossible.

This is almost like if I took my finger and tapped you on your face between your eyeballs and told you not to blink.
