inert Gas and smokers

[alane]

There is one thing that did not really become clear to me: PPeH says that people with a bad lungs function shout not use the method. I'm confused here it all comes down with the lung being able to exhale enough CO2 but not inhale oxygen. Now if someone who had a limited or bad lung function would have problems exhaling CO2 all the time and the inter Gas would just make sure that no more oxygen would be inhaled.

So Why would it be a bad idea for these people to use that method?

Also what is your opinion on smokers using that method?

I don't understand it either

Because you're supposed to exhale as much air out of the lungs as possible and then take the biggest breath as possible. People with bad lungs (e.g suffering from pneumonia) can't do this, thus taking more time to become unconscious. This shouldn't pose a problem if you're a smoker.

It is perfectly effective, regardless of lung function due to the fact every human absent oxygen will both go unconscious rapidly as well as die, without exception. The peacefulness and speed to unconsciousness may be slightly reduced by those with poor lung function, particularly those with advanced emphysema.

it is a viable method regardless of situation.
