But one convulsed in FIVE minutes. On the FIRST exposure.... In some studies (by Kenneth Donald??), it took 75 minutes at 3ata ppO2 before 10% of the subjects had CNS toxicity symptoms.
Let's not confuse things here. The statistical probability of an O2 hit becomes UNACCEPTABLE - unsafe - for in-water deco on oxygen below 20 fsw. Those "mystery" disappearances years ago are why the limit was moved back to 1.6 in the first place. You can probably get away with Russian roulette, too... five out of six times... but the sixth is liable to be first.
Don't go there.
