You probably tolerated PPO2 0.05 because you were sitting still.

-Pasi

is'nt it so that you just tolerated 0.05 for a short time because your brain has residual oxigen from breathing before, and it is just a matter of time before you pass away??

imagine breathing a 5% mix from a regulator at surface: you will not go unconcious after one breath, but it will not work for 10 minutes..
