altitude chamber hypoxia training guy passes out

Footage of FAA altitude chamber hypoxia training for pilots in which a participant passes out from oxygen deprivation. It shows how quickly and subtly cognition fails at altitude.
Linked as a vivid demonstration of how fast hypoxia incapacitates people, often without them noticing.
