Umms come about because the brain is not as fast as the speech, so it basically tells you to Umm so that it can catch up with the thoughts. Slowing your speech pace down can really allow you to deliver a more powerful speech, with few umms as well.
No. This is incorrect. Technically speaking you usually think faster than what you can say. What happens with the umms is that you begin to become afraid and your thoughts are blocked out and you need filter text to remember what you were originally thinking.
