Which Ph'ers been the highest??

[Wacky Racer]

No, not on drugs....

OK, I suppose many of us have been up to around 36,000ft on aeroplanes travelling on holiday etc, but in the absence of any astronauts on PH, has anyone been any higher?...fighter /test pilots etc...

Just wondered.....

On the same tack, what's the lowest anyone's been....any deep sea divers or submariners in the house?.....

+1. I thought it was closer to 60,000ft though. Oh, and I couldn't see the curvature of the Earth either.

I was on the edge of space in Amsterdam but that isn't what the op was looking for....

[RizzoTheRat]

Deepest I've been is about 50m, though that was in a quarry with not a lot to look at. Deepest to look at something intersting was I think 47m to the Markraff in Scapa.

I've exited a plane at 15,000 ft

[Waugh-terfall]

I've been at 14,000ft on a mountain in my boxers..?

Think it was about 16000ft / 17000ft on a mountain bike in Bolivia with a 13000ft decent at the end of the trail.
