My high point record is Mauna Kea, in Hawaii. That's going from sea level to 4200m. Of course that's easy when you're being driven up! There's an acclimatisation stop at the visitor centre half-way and you only spent about an hour at the top. I was fine but my travel companion felt the effects badly.

How much an individual is susceptible to altitude effects is basically fully random. When I went up to 5000m I learned that pretty much everything is fine - no headaches, nausea, fluid symptoms or anything - although my resting heart rate is super elevated, which is concerning!
