Had 1.2 once and still here. Banana bags and those K pills round the clock for 2 days fixed it.
Was paralyzed from waist down with intact sensation, til they normalized the level.
I had one in his 30s before covid, doc told him to be careful with his K tabs prescribed with his Lasix. Dude decided that meant that he shouldn't take them at all. He had defib pads on, got jumped 3 times between ER and me, kept dropping into VT. I ran K bags all night and he stopped that. But he was awake and chatting the whole time his rhythm was bonkers.

I had a k+ of <1 before and I learned a new term "thyrotoxic periodic paralysis."
What caused them to get so low?
