There are a lot of horses - all breeds - who manage to do drill teams and demos without being scared. Of all the breeds I've encountered, Icelandic's are the bravest as a general rule. When I see that many Icelandic's going into an arena acting jumpy, something is up. When I rode in drill teams, we had horses of all breeds, including Arabs and TB's at times. I don't think it speaks well for our breed when so many look skittish in a demo.
