"= Dead"

True for the passengers at 41,000 ft, but I believe the pilots, with their quick don, tight fitting, diluter-demand O2 regulators, could survive until their oxygen supply ran out or they froze to death, which ever occurred sooner.

Possibly, the A/C packs could provide enough heat for survival. I just don't know.
