Agreed.
You have to be a real jackass cut a flight short.

Lucky for us.
We can just grab a mask...Dial the cabin altitude up... And put everyone to sleep.

If you dial it up to 15K, how long do they have...........??

Can you leave it at 15K indefinitely??

Will 15k put you down? I've climbed 14k mountains, and felt fine. Even camped at 12.5.

It's strictly dependent on the individual. He might even go higher to ensure a quick demise..........but, likely won't leave it there.

Yep.
My brother lives up pretty high in CO. He can sit through 18-20 damn near all day.


The only times I’ve personally had to do that, were with a college football team coaching staff (No. I won’t say who.), and a couple of young pop bands (imagine that.).

On all occasions. There was quite a bit of alcohol (and who knows what else) involved as well.

Normally. A quick climb to 15 will certainly calm anyone down if they’re being really rowdy. Add “drunk” into the formula, and they’re out. Then we’ll drop them back to 8 or so.

If you’re in good shape, and just sitting there, 15 really wont do a thing to you. A bit depends on the climb rate though.

But if I want you to sleep… You’re going to sleep.
