Max Baer Sr. Omaha, Nebraska, U.S. Hollywood, California, U.S. Maximilian Adelbert Baer (February 11, 1909 – November 21, 1959) was an American boxer who was the World Heavyweight Champion from June 14, 1934, to June 13, 1935.

When humans cry in response to stress, their tears contain a number of stress hormones and other chemicals. Researchers believe that crying could reduce the levels of these chemicals in the body, which could, in turn, reduce stress.

- Tilt your head up slightly to prevent tears from falling.
- Pinch yourself on the skin between your thumb and pointer finger — the pain might distract you from crying.
- Tense up your muscles, which can make your body and brain feel more confident and in-control, according to scientists.
