Word to describe a person whose physical behavior turns animalistic- uncontrollable flailing often leading to failing to attract attention, refusing to control oneself and becoming extremely loud, yelling, crying uncontrollably, usually in an attempt to distract from what the person has done or to garner attention from strangers in hopes they will be sympathetic to the person and possible rescue them. This behavior is often prompted once the person is caught committing a crime or wrongdoing, typically in public settings. Faced with unwavering realities that the person has willfully disregarded and now has no choice but to face the consequences.
