Best Answer

As you go up the mountain air pressure decreases so air gets thinner making it little bit difficult to breathe. That is why mountaineers carry oxygen cylinders with them if they want to climb really high peaks like Mt. Everest or Alps mountains. We are able to breather air without any difficulties at sea - level where the atmospheric pressure is 1 atm.
