Been there, done that. It wasn't a memory of "time compression," I noticed it at the time it was happening. Didn't give me super-human powers to correct the problem (not a lot to do when ballistic, and still attached to the bike in mid-air; nor when one's car is spinning down the interstate after catching the shoulder when avoiding another car's sudden wreck), but I was amazed at all the things I was noticing as my control of events went away completely.

Neat free fall study involving high stress/fear and time dilation.

Turns out, things participants could not see that happened too fast in normal life also happened too fast in high stress time dilation life. Certainly things may get noticed more than others, but that is a product of selective attention or inattentional blindness. Pax posted on this sometime back. Here are fun tests...

So yeah, the brain gets really busy. It is like your old 486 computer trying to run with 20 windows open at the same time. Some it won't run at all. Those are things shut down temporarily as more necessary things occur.
