Judging by the symptoms they were describing during their ascent, I think all three of them were suffering from hypoxia, with Jeremy being hit the hardest due to his age and long history with smoking _(plus, he did mention that his lips were tingling at about __5:26__)._ Props to him for choosing to turn back at around 17,200 feet, trying to continue on could have gone really badly for him as his body probably started shutting down

I came down to the comments after he said his lips were tingling, that's terrifying. Like think about any suffocation training anyone ever has had: the first thing you do is look at the lips, and if they're a bluish purple, no oxygen. He genuinely could've died, even if they had intermittent oxygen from canisters off-camera. That kind of oxygen deprivation requires a constant oxygen pump.

No, your body adapts to high altitudes by producing more erythrocites or red blood cells which means that your blood can bind more oxygen. That is why the climb must be a slow one, so that you can give your body time to produce the RBC. Its also one of the ways doping works in sports - you go to a high altitude, produce RBC then you descend and they take your RBC and store them until you will compete and at that time they do the auto-transfusion which means you can give your muscles more oxygen to work with than it actually needs thus cheating into the victory.

But did you take into account the intermolecular structure of Hydrogen and the pka of the acid in the solution? Sounds to me like you've misrepresented the reaction. It would in fact be an organic titration. Could be wrong though

Clarkson and the boys were one of the kind. Top Gear is not Top Gear without these three.

They should've chosen cars with turbos - in higher altitudes they pump more air in the engine.

+Hans Dampf i live in bolivia and believe me compressing air in such a big altitude is really hard, turbo cars struggle a lot there specially when they are using gasoline instead of diesel. the lack of air means that the turbo or supercharger will build boost on higher rpms, trust me i used to have a wrx.

@MichaelFlatman

8 жыл бұрын

+Hans Dampf only at higher rpm, old 4x4s didnt have them, a turbo requires exhaust gases and there might be very little as the engine is already starved, a supercharger would put strain on the engines, for those cars forced induction isnt necessary as you have 3.9litres of V8 and possibly a twin carb setup,

I’ve been at 16000 feet in a vehicle, I was fine as we climbed, it was an enclosed vehicle so we effectively took our own bubble of air with us, breathing easily no issue at all, then we stopped at a viewpoint, opened the door and got out, went to take a breath, nothing just felt like I was holding my breath, I immediately went lightheaded and woozy, I had to take 5 or 6 really deep breaths to get some oxygen and clear the lightheadedness, barely managed to walk 30 feet to the viewing platform constantly having to breathe really deeply. It’s no joke at that altitude. Ok so we had been over 10000 feet for a week by that point so had acclimatised a bit but also climbing that day with a bubble of air then jumping out at 16000 feet will have amplified the affect. I will never forget trying to take that first breathe and there being nothing there, quite a shock.

To put this into perspective the Cartencez pyramid is at 14k feet, and Aconcagua is at 20k or so feet. Everest base camp is at 17k feet. This is REALLY damn impressive. They climbed 17000 feet in 1 day. Elbrus is at 18510 feet, part of the seven summits, and they reached a max height of 17k feet.

What I want to know is, what type of vehicle was the chase/camera car?
