I am stuck in a tiny vessel. Oxygen supply is running low.
What could we do to minimize oxygen usage?
Maximise your survival: kill the others. Be quick at it. Don’t want to use up too much oxygen doing the deed. Quick and humane. Also, if there are more than one, the still living will get upset with your actions and try and stop you adding them to the dead group.
I think your strategy is most likely to significantly increase the survival time. I have several questions and concerns. 1) we have no real weapons on board, how should I do it quickly? 2) i am in the vessel with some family members, I think these might not be the best options, what’s the most ethical way to choose who to kill, how low should the supply be before we kill the first one?
- You haven’t studied the secret ninja death touch?
- Start with the ones you don’t like. Start as soon as possible to maximise your survival.
Spoken like a true sailor!
Sleep
Also, if there are other people trapped with you its better to consider drawing straws sooner rather than later.
easier to sleep when it’s so dark

Control your respiratory rate (and your mind, panic increases respiration) while you figure out how to get help, and then keep practicing it while you wait for help or do what is necessary to free yourself. No unnecessary movement. Your O2 is your life and is being used up by you merely existing, so use as little of it as you can while still managing to do what you must to restore access to it.
