As a follow-up to this, I have heard that overweight people might be able to tolerate a higher ppO2 than lean people. Is there any truth to this and any speculation as to why?

George or anyone else Are there any non-anecdotal studies that actually PROVE physical fitness reduces susceptibility to DCI? I don't mean obese vs lean, or even to suggest that being fit is not a good thing per se, but does all this heavy training really give any more protection than a rabbit's foot or a mouthful of vitamin E?
