Has anyone ever experienced time dilation where the world appears to be running slowly in relation to your own thinking and actions?

Ive found this can occur in sports or life threatening situations for example. If so do you have any explanation for the experience?

I read about this once. Slowed time is not actually how you experience it.

During stressfull events your senses are heightened, but the affect is to generate more detailed memories as it happens.

A bit like generating more frames per second on a camera. So it only actually seems like time slowed when you remember it.

Definitely like a sped up camera but in reality not memory.
