Well not that oxygen becomes depleted, but that your chest feels tight when you climb high.
I don't think it would be right to say no one ever climbed a mountain or knew about high altitude in the 7th century.
By the way I don't enjoy debunking the quran, if I thought it was miraculous I'd look more into it, but I have seen nothing miraculous in the quran.
Actually shouldn't it better for the verse to say, He makes his breast tight and constricted as though he were climbing to the top of mountain. Because climbing into the sky was likely something impossible even if we just give a thought about it.
You guys always asked an evidence about God, how about I asked you any simple evidence that someone/race from or before 7th century, whom has climbed to the top of mountain and go to the desert just to share that his breast become tight and constricted (sign of less pressure right) as if he were climbing to the top. (well, actually you have to climb real high just to feel the symptom right).
Anyways, how about verse 24:45? I always fascinated with this verse, and sometimes I want to know other's thought about it.
[He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed - and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving.
