Can you breathe at 40000 feet?

Somewhere between 30,000 and 40,000 feet the pressure around you becomes far too low to push those oxygen molecules across the membranes in your lungs, and you get hypoxic (altitude sickness). If you try to breathe 100 percent oxygen above 40,000 feet for very long without a special type of mask, you'll die.

Why do planes fly at 40000 feet?
The biggest reason for this altitude lies in fuel efficiency. The thin air creates less drag on the aircraft, which means the plane can use less fuel in order to maintain speed. Less wind resistance, more power, less effort, so to speak. Spending less on fuel is also great for airlines, for obvious reasons.
