On average, a person uses about 550 liters of oxygen per day. Without supplemental oxygen tanks, it would take around 5-7 hours to use up the oxygen that is being lost with each breath. This can vary based on individual lung capacity and activity level.

Can humans breath at 20000 feet?

Not very well. The air is simply too thin- not enough oxygen. Mountain climbers at that elevation will need supplemental oxygen in order to breath. I get winded at 14,000 feet. Of course, if you are in an aircraft that has a pressurized cabin, you are being supplied with additional air.

How can you breath without thinking of breathing?

You don't have to think about it because there is a part of the brain called the medulla oblongata. This part of the brain regulates many things one of which is breathing. Also if you try to hold your breath, eventually the brain realizes that it is being starved from oxygen and "over rides" you systems causing you to breath again.

What so we do with the nitrogen we breath?

When we inhale air, we breathe in nitrogen along with oxygen. Our body uses the oxygen for cellular respiration to produce energy, while the nitrogen is mostly exhaled back out without being utilized by our bodies. Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the air we breathe, but our bodies do not have a biological need for it.
