Ah so right after the desision to jump in front of a speeding car to shove my child out of the way, I feel euphoria?
I'd be willing to bet that adrenaline would be the dominant neurochemical, and that doesn't always have a euphoric effect. Any post-stress euphoria would probably be rendered nugatory by death.
The euphoria would be the effect, not the cause.
