Method Is the experience of hypoxia from inert gas different from SN?

[KillingPain267]

The loss of oxygen pilots experience during training or before a flight accident has fascinated me for long, and it's something I wish to experience all the way. Does the methemoglobinemia from SN cause the same possible high as hypoxia from severe oxygen desaturation?

I think inert gases are more peaceful and quicker. With sn you get nausea and the urge to vomit.
So far from what I could see in streamed sn attempts, it doesn't look like being high at all, at least in terms of something enjoyable. Many people experience a feeling being drunk though.
With gases you might get a more "enjoyable" experience I think. Just my thoughts and assumptions

Exactly. The people I have seen undergoing oxygen loss seem to enjoy it or at least slowly drift away without any discomfort. Of course most of them were saved just in time because it was just pilot training. With SN there is risk of massive headaches and tachycardia, and as you said, urge to vomit.
