Just to confirm my colleague was wrong...

Is there a difference between climbing at very high altitudes in an unpressurized plane, breathing oxygen, and being at the same high altitude in a pressurized plane, experiencing a sudden decompression?
(like suddenly opening a bottle of coke).
That was his point...

Does the second case make the blood boil, at least for a few seconds?
