According to the video the blowout occurred at approx 17000 feet
As far as altitude, there are several mountains in N America that reach that height and are climbed without oxygen
If this would have happened at typical cruising altitude today (30 to 35,000 ft) it would have surely killed him

There are a whole series of aircraft accident recreations using this flight sim. The accidents themselves were true, the flight sim recreations are accurate as the creator can make them.
