How long did it take for Dave Bowman to exit the pod and pressurize the airlock? :) (SPOILER if you haven't seen 2001: A Space Odyssey) http://www.youtube.com

How long did it take for Dave Bowman to exit the pod and pressurize the airlock? :) (SPOILER if you haven't seen 2001: A Space Odyssey) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e92vSua8XJY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e92vSua8XJY In this clip, he ejects at about 0:20 and hits the lever around 0:27. You can see him go limp just after 0:34, before the chamber has finished pressurizing. 14 seconds. So regardless of why the real-life (1965) test subject blacked out after 14 seconds, it appears that the makers of the (1968) film had done their homework!
