Discussion Aviation-related hypoxia

[6ixxy]

I've been researching hypoxia(the result of oxygen not being carried by your blood) which most of you will know is how you CTB from ingesting SN.
I came across this article in relation to hypoxia from flying, I didn't look too much into it but I did find a quote that is as shows;


I'm not entirely sure how closely related the two are, being from flying and SN, but surely this is at least some indication and anecdotal evidence of it being a 'peaceful' exit.

I'd crash the plane to increase the odds.

Lmfao, that genuinely made me laugh

I have Respiratory Failure with Hypoxia. I disagree. Which is one of the reasons SN is not my method. Not trying to turn anybody away from it. It was Stan's method. Just not for me.

I'm going to jump in with very little science backing me up. In respiratory failure, the struggle to breathe plays a huge role in the sufferers sense of panic and doom. With aviation hypoxia (at 11000+feet) and methemoglobinemia, that phase is shortened, especially with benzodiazepines on board. @Jean4, respiratory failure is a terrifying chronic condition (like drowning 24/7), and you have courage for facing struggles like that on a daily basis!

Correct. Which is why SN is not my method. I live with that every day. It is a very easy method and I won't tell anybody NOT to do it.

I have serious respiratory crap too, including co2 retention, which is accompanied by hypoxia of course. I'm real familiar with the panicky reaction co2 buildup causes, but last year I slid into a hypercapnic coma. What a trip! Like a whole film festival in my head, and I was perfectly happy with it. On the way into the coma I did realize I wasn't well, but it was a very distant awareness that entailed no discomfort.

So I have mixed feelings about using SN to die. I reckon it'll work faster for me because of my illness, but don't know whether to expect discomfort or happy hour.

So out of pure curiosity, what would be the case with asthmatics taking SN?

Aviation related hypoxia varies depending on situations and really doesn't apply to us on the surface. It is also quite different than a hypoxic state accompanied by an awareness to an acute deprivation of oxygen. I suggest looking up nitrogen narcosis (related to scuba diving). The state described above sounds more like nitrogen narcosis than hypoxia. It seems that hypoxia is only not unpleasant when you are not aware your
Hypoxic.

If you can find a way to breathe in pure Nitrogen you'd be unconscious in 20 seconds and then
dead in a few minutes. Nitrogen is completely painless . I saw a video where a pig went unconscious
while feeding under a nitrogen tent and then the pig went back again to feed under the nitrogen tent.
This graph shows that you'd be unconsciouss max in 20 seconds:

My guess is that that you might have a longer time period before death?
The mechanism of action would be seriously impaired if you had problems with red blood cells or anemia. (Sickle cell anemia, for example).
I'm biologically related to people who are born with methemoglobinemia, so I am wondering if my single recessive gene for the condition will expedite things, but I won't be around long enough for science to answer that question!

Which is why it isn't for me. But most have no problems.
