I've never ever seen a dead person, in person, up close. I don't want to either. I have no idea how that would affect me. At this point I might take it in stride. But when younger, no.

I had a gun pointed at me in the mid 90s. It didn't initially click. Once it did, my goal was to give the guy the money in the cash register. I asked him "do you want the change too?" It wasn't as scary as I'd have expected, but I did realize later that I had multiple opportunities to take the gun from the guy. But hey, not my money, and not worth my life. It was quicker and easier (and store policy) to comply.

Most driving situations still don't bother me.

I've also never seen a dead person in person (or someone mortally wounded). I'm not sure how it would affect me. I don't think it would be a big deal, but I'm not going to try to find out or confirm that.
