A British geology professor is set to become the David Blaine of the science world, after agreeing to be locked in an airtight chamber for 48 hours with only some specially selected plants for company.
Iain Stewart, professor of geoscience at Plymouth University and television presenter, hopes the plants will provide the oxygen required to keep him alive. He is carrying out the experiment at the Eden Project in Cornwall. "That box, this experiment, is the planet," he told The Independent. "People don't think of plants as our life support system without which we wouldn't be able to function and life wouldn't be able to function."
Oxygen levels in the scientist's container will be reduced to around 10-12 per cent, just over than half that of the air around us. It is this oxygen shortage that typically leads to altitude sickness in some people.
