My understanding of the gold paint thing is that you need to keep a portion of the chest bare (ie the back) as the paint will not stretch and may therefore not allow for full expansion of the lungs. And, it doesn't matter if the paint is gold or not. Love your videos James.

Exactly. I think a combination of this and the fact that ultimately you are allowed to smell however you want; I may not like a perfume somebody is wearing, but who am I to say "I dislike your perfume". Then finally you don't know if there is a reason why they smell like that. They may have mental or physiological reasons as to why they sweat excessively, or they may have a disease/illness which makes them stink even if they aren't sweaty due to having lots of dead skin...

Mythbusters DID test it, properly on The Hyneman. There was no significant effect caused by the latex gold paint that he had pained over all of his body. IIRC "slight discomfort" was all he felt, but from the uncomfortable rubber paint, not heat or other strange issues.

To be fair, there are no studies about long-term effects of full-body pore blockage. Which means saying "it can't kill you" is as incorrect as saying "it will kill you". It certainly won't kill you immediately, but neither will smoking a cigarette (unless it was given to you by the Mossad or KGB, in which case it probably can).

What on earth makes you people connect "beeing able to put out sweat" with "skin suffocation". Deodorants which block your sweat pores make it harder for you to sweat and it is not helthy if done on the whole body (if only partly you only sweat elsewhere). Scuba diving does not block you from sweating.

Ist not so much that your skin can't breathe. But if you caver the whole body with paint your body can overheat causing several unhealthy reactions. Mythbusters did an experiment on that. An other reason is using the wrong kind of paint, which can contract on drying, which then constrict ones ribs and lungs, and thus interferre with normal breathing. Just cause ones lungs can't expand properly.

You could probably die from Gold Paint, it would just need to be really hot outside. Sweat glands regulate body temperature, and people die all the time from heat stroke. So if paint is blocking the sweat glands... I doubt MythBusters would decide to go so far as to kill one of their cast members. It's something that they couldn't and shouldn't test completely. This whole idea about "skin suffocation" is silly though.

internal body temperature must be maintained to a very specific temperature, gold power or paint can act as an antiperspirant and that will make you very hot. it'll take a while though. if you want to try this out get some antiperspirant and put it on your neck after a few hours its unbearable.

Yup. The extent to which you have BO is determined by loads of different factors you can't really control. Showering helps obviously and so do antiperspirants because they remove bacteria and prevent you from sweating in the first place respectively, but my sweat stinks regardless of the fact I shower in the morning and at night and wear antiperspirant so I have to get prescribed deodorants to stop me sweating. P.S I'm underweight, but bacteria does thrive around fat which is why fat people...

Diving and bathing don't block your pores; sweat still comes out, it just doesn't evaporate (and you're unlikely to overheat while doing either of those things, anyway, since cool water conducts heat away from your skin faster than evaporating sweat would). I doubt anyone would die just from having blocked pores (the person would still lose heat through conduction, normal breathing, etc.), but it can certainly cause some skin cysts to develop.

Actually, though it's true you can't die from Skin Suffocation, it should have no impact on being underwater, since it's not air that needs to get in, but water that needs to get out. Just clearing that up. Overheating will probably be a problem with gold paint, just not deadly.
