minus-squareEnoril@jlai.lulinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoi don’t think its possible (but i’m not an expert on that) due to the sudden differential of pressure you encounter. I assume it’s like being punched. Best is to react quickly for yourself, then look and help the people around you… If plane go quickly under 10000 feets, the unconscious people will wake-up (normally)
