- People say they get drunker on airplanes, but it's not the alcohol -- it's the altitude. Why is that? What exactly does altitude do to the body?

The Claim: You Get Drunk Faster at High Altitudes
www.nytimes.com/2008/09/02/hea...
"At the national convention last week in the mile-high city of Denver, the New York State Democratic Party warned delegates about the potential effects of drinking alcohol there. 'Remember that drinks may go to your head faster than you're used to in New York,' it said."
Into Thin Air: Weight Loss in High Altitudes

"In addition to a lack of oxygen, there may be another reason it's called thin air-researchers have been exploring the relationship between weight loss and high altitudes."
Everest: What Happens To Your Body 29,029 Feet Above Sea Level
www.natureworldnews.com/articl...
"What is it like to stand on top of the world? Nothing short of exhilarating, say those who've made it to the top of Mount Everest's summit 29,029 feet above sea level, at the cruising altitude of a 747. The spectacular view aside, part of what makes the experience so exhilarating is that getting there is no walk in the park."

If I climbed Everest I'd bring a step ladder with me so I could get a few feet higher than anyone else who's been up there.
Lol! Right
*****
I'm pretty sure I would.
beware of the hundreds of frozen bodies up there
That record would be broken in the future, though, as Mountain Everest keeps growing.
Coffee Owl with the 6% mortality rate and the work of the sherpas climbing everest has become a walk in the park. Weather being the major factor influencing your chances xD
There’s still roughly 21% oxygen at the bottom of the atmosphere. Additionally, there is still roughly 21% oxygen at 60,000’, and 30,000’. The ratio of oxygen is the same at any altitude you fly at. At altitude, it’s the lack of air pressure makes it difficult for the air in your lungs to be forced through the alveoli (small sacs that convey oxygen to your blood). This result deprives your blood of sufficient oxygen. Again, not because there’s “less oxygen”, but because the pressure is too little to force the oxygen through the thin wall sacs of the alveoli within your lungs, which as a result, causes a lack of oxygen in your blood. This lack of oxygen in the blood deprives the brain of adequate oxygen resulting in, what is known
as, hypoxic hypoxia.
Why do people have a fav host for DNews?? I friggin love all of them. Keep up your awesome work guys!
When I'm on an airplane ride I don't feel very different except for my pride and ego. It is then that I realize most people are beneath me.
Name shhh don't give them attention they live off it
I already went to everest
@@descai10 its a joke bro why are you like this?
@@shakib7692 I don't know why i didn't get it back then. Thanks for bringing me back here so i can delete it.
Are you alive, my lord❓🥺
You made me laugh
Hey AST, we meet again! I'm a pilot and everything you said in this clip is right on, but a mention to smokers would show they are more vulnerable to altitude sickness.
I would like you guys to do a video on the effects of the "Carolina Reaper." It's a hot pepper to die for. I want to know why our brain says it's hot, but it has no effect on birds for seed dispersal.
Johnnie
An atmosphere of pressure and a BAR are not the same. A BAR is slightly lower.
Good host...have her on more
Amy is so cool and smart.
ThunderGun2 she is reading those from a screen ffs.
ThunderGun2 I want the other guy back he is better I think
Kevin Neville
u gaiii
go back to /r9k/
I love your videos, guys, and this one was neat as usual! But I have a little criticism to make.
I don't mind if you use imperial units as long as the metric equivalent is indicated visually on the screen, like you did at 1:20, that was just right. But after that (like at around 2:20), I had to keep pausing the video and googling the conversion to grasp the altitude you were referring to, and it is quite distracting...
I believe you have a lot of non-american subs, remembering we don't use imperial would just make me like your channel even more =D
The first time I flew on a plane as a kid there was an issue with the pressure in the cabin. When landing pressure was still at the same level it was at 30,000 feet, I thought my ears were going to start bleeding from how bad it hurt lol. When the doors opened there was a rush of air in the plane
Please put que numbers in the metric system. Thank you.
grew up on 5600 ft went to 8000 ft regularly for hot water springs never got sick or tired i moved to the uk and i get a headache every time i take in two or three deep breaths maybe your body is designed for sea level mine isn't
Thanks for sharing such knowledgeable content. Keep it up.
There is an apparent internal contradiction in this video.
It says that blood alcohol content is independent of altitude (which is true), but it also says that high altitude concentrates blood flow through critical organs like the brain (which is also true). But this means that high altitude causes more alcohol to get into your brain compared with the same blood alcohol concentration at lower altitude.
This seems to be inconsistent with the assertion that alcohol intoxication is independent of altitude.
The brain is exposed to more blood due to shunting, but the blood it is exposed to is still of the same alcohol concentration, which is the main factor that determines intoxication, ceteris paribus.
Ssj
@@thebateman7949 why does concentration matter but not volume? Osmosis or some shit?
In chemistry, the equilibrium constant of a reaction (product concentrations divided by reactant concentrations) is changed only by changing temperature (not total volume of solution). Therefore, if you have a higher concentration of reactants (ethanol), you'll have a higher concentration of products (ethanol interacting with CNS receptors) at equilibrium. The concentration of ethanol molecules that are interacting with your CNS is mainly what leads to intoxication. So, experiencing the symptoms of intoxication and altitude sickness simultaneously does not lead to any multiplication of impairment - just the combined effects of both conditions. At least that's my take on it as a Chemistry student. :)
One thing I've noticed is a stereotype about muscles in high altitude. At ground level muscular folk are usually unnatural and do little to no cardio. Most training will lead to muscle growth which is a good thing is training is proper. Larger muscles with stronger cardio depletes circulatory issues and assists in storing oxygen in larger reservoirs. This fitness can not be achieved in 2 or 3 years. Never tested but a larger climber with that fitness might be a little slower but might be able to go on longer than an average client high up on the mountain
I thought what happened is if you go too high, and the if the air in the cabin were somehow to become the same as outside, you start to feel loopy because of _that;_ because you have no oxygen.
Do a video about what happens to ur body when living on mountains and/or hills.
I live at 9,000 ft in a mountain town in Colorado and go skiing all the time, and getting drunk faster is NOT the furthest thing from my mind. It's awesome.
It’s only made up in your mind
Thanks for sharing. Love your bangs. So cute 😍
"...let's start where most of us live; at sea level."
_Most_ of us. Heh heh heh. 😈
could anyone do aerobic exercises at 25000ft height?
Of course you can. Many people have climbed Everest, which is a form of aerobic exercise.
High Altitude: you cant go up too high
David Blaine: hold my ballon
Wowwowowow that was awesome. Subscribing right now :)
I was mad the end time wasnt 4:20
Good job Amy, this is so natural for you.
I hiked to the top of Mt Whitney which is a 14,500 (4,400 meters) foot Mountain in the Sierra nevadas. At around 11,500 feet I started to feel sick AF felt like i was getting constant head rushes. I acclimated a day later tho. Id do it all over again
What's the highest altitude to which one can adapt? How long does it take?
There are people that live above 15,000 feet. Some people also lived at 19,000 feet for two years.
how many miles above sea level is safe living
I was having a hefty dose of altitude sickness when I got to Gilman's Point on Mt. Kilimanjaro. It was quite a trippy experience taking in the incredible view while feeling somewhat floaty.
Santa Fe 7,199 ft above sea level
That description (hypoxia) of what happens when oneself cannot breath happens when oneself faints, also. It is an incredibly, terrifying experience; It has happened to me, and some times it's worse than other times.
I hate it when people say there is less oxygen! That is false, there is less pressure! Therefore your lungs will not diffuse oxygen into the bloodstream as well.
That's it, Amy has beautiful eyes.
Use meters
The moment this was uploaded I was heading for mountain Olympus. Not such a huge altitude to be exact but spectacular nevertheless :)
I've been sick for three months and am now vomiting blood.....altitude is no joke people, drink lots and lots and lots ...and yes, LOTS of water
Cabins are pressurerized to 8k feet? Weird... I've been on planes before and never had a problem breathing
I climbed kilimanjaro at 20,000 ft a few months ago and it suuuucked. Got super sick from the altitude.
I get altitude sickness when I drive into Wyoming or Colorado from Florida. It's crazy
I think i felt altitude sickness 3x whenever i fly in a commercial jet there is always a typhoon, the cabin crew always tell us how much altitude we are, and for my experience we are on some about 29,200 ft asL, thats one hell of a ride and think i always travel before no thing can make me mad except that.
So i think Annapurna is my daydream wish to summit
I like her. She fits presenting this show and she's cute as all hell
What about me ???
RocketLR no.
Comi :D Ruuude :O
Aron Bekhuis that... is.. the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me on youtube :')
RocketLR I got an idea maybe DNews can solve our problem. DNews I got a question: Can a guy spontaneously grow a fuckhole?
8,000 ft cabin alt at FL300? That's some weak pressurization. The kc10 I fly in is about 4k cabin alt at the same altitude.
amazing, very informative thx.
Atmospheric pressure is not 1mb at sea level. It is 1013.25 HPa or 1013.25 mb!
I got altitude sickness after I left my home at around 250 ft to Denver Colorado
This is actually incorrect. There's no less oxygen in the air at extreme altitudes. the atmospheric pressure is just extemely low.
I’m going skiing tomorrow at 10,000 ft. And have severe asthma will I be okay?
That's one of my dreams, climb Everest
With the death rate going on up, maybe the last thing you'll ever do to
I’m Never Going On A Plane Again.
bungee jumping, sky diving, deep sea diving, artic exploring, sailing around the world solo and climbing Everest are things I will not regret not doing.
But they're all so fun ;)
Can you please explain why its hard to breathe in hot and humid weather? What happens to oxygen atoms?
Awesome video...
Iv hiked 8,000 ~ 11,000 feet above sea level in Colorado, and Iv bin a deep water swimmer / competative swimmer for 9 years and I'm wondering, is there a correlation between thoes 2 adaptations and second question ; ( and I know this might be kinda dumb but ) can people be adapted to highy altitude liveing, and if so - how ?
If acclimatize to lower pressure.... and just stay that way, say forexample that you expose yourself regularly in a hypobaric chamber but otherwise live normally... will the resulting "permanent acclimatization" make you more fit and live longer? i mean you become more efficie t at transporting oxygen so you should be more fit. but doesnthat increase the risks of stroke?
RoScFan sadly no you may become acclimatized to higher altitudes then go back to sea level then back to altitude and you well still have to re-acclimate the reason being hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is what makes your blood red and is what carries oxygen in the blood hense shy blood in the arteries is brighter red and in the veins its darker red. As you acclimate to higher altitude along with making more red blood cells the concentration of hemoglobin in your blood increases to help transport O2 throughout your body. But if you were to go back to lower altitude your body well re-acclimatize and losses that excess hemoglobin; the one case we don't see that happen for example are the Nepalese Sherpas who live at high altitude for generations and their genes have changed making their blood hemoglobin levels be higher then the average human they can go to sea level for years then go back up to altitude and have no issues in theory due to their genetic adaptation but to the normal man it doesn't work that way. I can say this for sure living all my life in Colorado a mile above sea level for 18 years then went to Ft. Benning for Basic and went back to Colorado and man did it suck my 2 mile run time went down almost by a full minuet taking in mined I lived their my whole life was gone for 3 months and was in the best shape of my life due to basic training and going back up still sucked. Hope this helps a little because science.
Although short daily exposures in a hypobaric chamber won't do anything, people living at higher altitudes do tend to live a little bit longer. County by county studies have been done. At higher altitudes the risk of death from heart disease and stroke decreases, but the risk of death from COPD (Chronic bronchitis and emphysema) increases. At least one study also showed that the risk of death from some types of cancers is lower at high altitude.
Jerry Emanuelson what about sleeping at night in a hipobaric chamber?
+RoScFan You can read a lot about this in the Wikipedia article on "Altitude training" and also on the web site at altitudetraining.com . One thing that I don't believe that either of those web sites discusses is the relationship between altitude acclimatization and stroke. There is a common belief that increased hemoglobin increases stroke risk, but the data shows that moderately increased hemoglobin due to altitude acclimatization actually decreases the risk of both stroke and heart disease.
+RoScFan Everyone responds to altitude a bit differently. I spent nearly 30 years living at 6300 feet and working at 9400 feet. During that time, my blood tests indicated that I remained acclimatized at something much closer to the higher altitude.
As soon as I started working at 9400 feet only occasionally, my acclimatization quickly returned to normal for my lower living altitude of 6300 feet.
Great great teaching aids! Plus the tone and rate of presentation is perfect, students cant fall asleep, very well done, thank you !
climbing Everest is actually on my bucket list
Your body starts to get dizzy at 24000 ft at 8000 feet it gets hard to breathe a little bit
One of my life goals climb Everest
Hello i have a question İ train at 5000 feet will i have negative effects because i train at this point like running pushups squats etc. Some say you will have negative effects some not
I live at almost sea level,
I am flying to Colorado and staying at a VRBO at 9,600 ft.
So am I screwed?
what happens at 9200 ft?
"And if you're doing all that, getting drunk faster should be the furthest thing from your mind." That killed me. I love you, Amy. Nice shade. XDDD
And I totally would love to climb Everest one day. Promise I'll drink the champagne to celebrate when I'm back at normal altitude. =P
putting in meters would be helpful...
What about when you're skydiving?
Do Yoga.
I have been to khardungla gurudongmar which are 17000+ ft high.
You become "high"
meters? plz
What about the South Pole, why is it restricted?
i want to climb everest
So what happens when you live in one of the lower altitude places like Florida? Because I can tell you from experience it feels like I'm dying a very slow, unnatural death.
Wondering too
Jet engine is all about sucking in air and pushing it out with enormous power. now Dnews needs to explain how jet engine work efficiently with such a thin air at that altitude.
I'm here after watching a video about an Indian Special Forces unit that's specifically trained for high altitude.
I hate that feeling
i'm planning on climbing kilimanjaro august of 2018 with a friend! i'm kind of nervous about the altitude difference, so we'll see how it goes. :)
Ashley Burt Include yoga itl help....especially pranayams or breathing exercises...All the best!
Ashley Burt I've been suffering through altitude sickness....for a long time, am about to try promising last resort....Tums and magnesium, a bus driver who goes up and down in altitude told me it helped her and they do that at ski resorts...the Tums that is.
Nicole A great.....Also ders an Indian herb called haritaki or harida powder which increases oxygen capacity....do read abt it on google. It is also good for general health care and is a very mild laxative...it is 100% natural
Neelem Sharma ill try ANYTHING...THANKS!!!
Nicole A it purifies blood but is a bit dry so include juices, milk and ghee etc. in your diet as well....plz read thoroughly abt it before consuming to see if it suits your condition and body type as per ayurveda :)
Altitude sickness is like being drunk and badly hungover at the same time.
agree
Can you do an episode on digital dementia
how to download it if i'm not in the usa
what about people in the Andes😕❓
Vanessa Acosta Hernández they've adapted after years of living there
Navdip Singh after generations
Same with tibetans and sherpas
Yes
Hypoxia - Even the smartest pilot could get pretty stupid fast.
Do a video on spontaneous combustion
What does her shirt say?
Amy is a very nice Canadian.
She's very good at talking aboot different stuff
nope. I don't like heights.
There is just as much oxygen at higher altitudes as there is at low altitudes. The reason your body becomes hypoxic at higher altitudes is because there is less pressure. The oxygen molecule can’t diffuse from the alveoli and into the blood stream as well because of less pressure not less oxygen in the atmosphere
Dnews: make a video on how breast cancer hurts the body
do a video why dislikes didn't appear on comment section
I hate sea level. It's all about living a mile high!
More Amy! And bring back Julia!
Did Seeker rip off this video from DNews?
hey
Climbed 4600m 15000ft. and Had a Rum there.. Got energized :D
Why do animals like to chase laser pointers??
I wouldn't climb Mount Everest. It's to risky in my opinion.
My ears pop a lot at high altitudes
SI units, please! Unless, you want to lose another spacecraft.
Why when i go to high altitudes i cant breath like last time i went to mount killJacksonvillVegas the highest mountain in da world its in Soutside Antartica Fake Africa
You sure Mount Everest isn't the highest ?!?!?!?!?!?!
this kid is dumb
+RealN%GGA#Yakuza ImTheRealOne24/7# But, Mount Everest is the Highest 😐
yajat uppal STFU u indian fuck Ill beat ur ass
Alexandra Lakkis STFU dumbfuck
Idk what she's talking about, getting drunk really fast on free booze is exactly what I did the one time I got bumped up to first class. I mean, it was probably cause I got a drink every 15 min and not the altitude, but still.
What happens when you live at 10,000 feet like me?
there is enough air pressure on the muntain tops. its just not enough oxygen in it. the air pressure itself is high enough and more than high enough. that the air itself is so thin is just bullshit. carbondioxide is denser than oxygen have lower altitude and as its cooled down its even more dense. there is also lot of sulfur up there as its part of cloud formation. its likely methane leaks from the crust as well. thin air have been they easy way to explain altitude sickness. its just not correct.
