People who are not used to spending time far above sea level often get altitude sickness because the the air is thinner and their bodies have to work harder to get enough oxygen. Invaders of and travelers to Tibet need to use extreme care at the " Roof of the W orld". Not only is altitude sickness unpleasant, in such extremes, it can be fatal. So how about them Tibetans, huh?
