Who gets decompression sickness?

How do pilots get decompression sick?
Pilots can experience decompression sickness, also known as "the bends," when there is a rapid decrease in atmospheric pressure, such as during a sudden cabin depressurization at high altitude. This drop in pressure allows nitrogen dissolved in the body's tissues to form bubbles, leading to symptoms like joint pain, dizziness, and fatigue. Proper pre-flight planning, gradual ascent and descent, and using supplemental oxygen can help mitigate the risk of decompression sickness. Additionally, pilots are trained to recognize and respond to these scenarios to ensure their safety and that of their passengers.

What is the most pressure a diver can experience before getting the bends or decompression sickness?

Any depth greater than this depth can result in decompression sickness depending on the time underwater.
