Corrected entry: When Sandra Bullock is trying to get to the station, she is very low on O2 which George Clooney knows, yet he keeps her talking, using up much more O2 than keeping quiet.

Corrected entry: When Sandra Bullock is trying to get to the station, she is very low on O2 which George Clooney knows, yet he keeps her talking, using up much more O2 than keeping quiet.
Correction: By forcing her to remain talking, he is forcing her mind to remain active, thus helping her to remain conscious a little longer through her hypoxia. Second: By forcing her to vocalize, he is forcing her to modulate her breathing, thus consuming less oxygen than panicked gasping. Third: whispering, talking or shouting out loud consume only a tiny amount more than just breathing.
