usskydiver 0 #3 August 1, 2004 He was prebreathing 02 which was critical to his success. I seriously doubt that anyone (in any aircraft) could do successfully accomplish what he did without prebreathing. In the US military, if we're going above 18K we must prebreath for 45 minutes before crossing through 10K. (unpressurized). Tim T.
