• Amateur Science decided three days to live without air, but a fiasco

Amateur science experiments and Curtis Bout own experience decided to prove that oxygen, which is produced by the plant in an enclosed space, it is enough for you to live a normal human. However, the project was completed much earlier than he planned - breathed "scholar" more intense than his green helpers. 1: 0 in favor of maize, sunflowers and pumpkins.

The Canadian blogger Curtis Bout tried to live alone in a closed greenhouse with hundreds of plants for three days. Preparations for amateur science experiment reported on his Youtube-channel.

Preparation for the project took about a year.

To carry out the experiment in advance Bout planted in the greenhouse a few dozen plants: pumpkin, sunflower, corn and potatoes. He hoped that the oxygen that they produce, it would be enough to breathe for three days in a confined space without air supply from outside.

This experiment Bout wanted to encourage everyone living on the planet looking for ways to save her. In addition, it is intended to show to its subscribers as a "work environment at a deeper level."

After the experimenter moved in a greenhouse, he began to keep a diary on his page on Instagram. He did level measurements of carbon dioxide and oxygen, and realized that breathes much more intense than the plants produce oxygen.

After 15 hours, the researcher had to leave the greenhouse, ie. A. The level of carbon dioxide in it rapidly took off, and that the oxygen that plants recovered, was not enough to fully breathe.

"I could probably hold out for three days, but my goal -. It is not just to survive My goal is to finish the project without Posin without getting brain damage or heat stroke and mutilated body." - said Bout .

Whatever it was, the author is very happy experience and considers it a success.
