Linus...42, i guess that makes me the answer...

There is no set height where it will occur, it varies from person to person but it is certainly something to be aware of when you go to places like the himalayas.

As for getting it on a ladder, it would depend how high above sealevel the ladder was placed...........smiley - smiley
