"Yell fire while fighting. "
???

It has been proven that if you yell out HELP people will not go and see since most people will evade a situation with violence. But you yell FIRE people will run to look.

Crazy but the statistics do support it.

I mean wouldn't just yelling "and you get a car" like Oprah do the same thing?

Would like to see references. Sounds like an urban myth.

Situational awareness is on top but I think being in an intense or stressful situation and being able to keep calm in the situation is important no matter how much one trains but if nothing is pushing them to believe that they are in danger it won't help no matter how much technical knowledge you have.

Nope, urban myth.

Some even argue "Fire" may send people away depending on circumstances.
