Can you really die from your first huff?

Question

Dont worry, Im not going to try it. I was just curious if it really can kill you the first time. I thought it would take a lot of time.

Answer 1

Huff of what? Compressed dusters, hairspray, air fresheners, absolutely. Gasoline/solvents? If you don't breathe afterward or breathe nothing but fumes for a few minutes solid and then pass out with the bag on your face, yeah. Ether, most definitely.

Most anything that can replace oxygen in your lungs can definitely kill you. I'm by no means anti-drug and have done my share of stupid things, but huffing isn't the brightest idea. If you have a friend who wants to try it, the only thing that's easily accessible and relatively safe to huff is nitrous oxide (think: dentist happy gas) so long as they BREATHE between whippets. I won't give out the specific information on getting it from the grocery store in case it might be getting someone in trouble who wouldn't be otherwise, but as the alternative to kids huffing duster, I'll just say that it's cheap, creamy, and probably in your refrigerator.

Please be safe. :)

Answer 2

Yes, huffing isn't even using drugs, all the gas chemicals do are mimic oxygen so the body thinks it is getting proper oxygen but is in fact getting cut off from it, so it induces psychological effects similar to alcohol intoxication. Its the same method that the choking game works. This is why we need to legalize real drugs so kids wont try and get a S****y buzz from industrial chemicals. Nitrous Oxide is the only safe "huffable" chemical, it doesn't replace oxygen instead it is an NMDA antagonist like ketamine or DXM.

Answer 3

Yes!!!!!!! I forget the actual statistic now but I was watching an episode of Intervention last week and it showed a percentage of how many people die INSTANTLY from their 1st huff. It was a little less then 1/2 but still that is just SCARY!! Good please don't try it. I had friends back in the day do it and it's SOOOOOOOO lame!!! Trust me they all laugh about it now saying how stupid, dangerous and lame it is.

Answer 4

Of compressed air? Aerosols? Yes. You get the 10-second high because it, to put it simply, confuses your body into thinking it's getting oxygen, or some products "freeze" your lungs, thus cutting off your oxygen flow to your brain, so could you die INSTANTLY.

I'm so glad you're not going to do that.

Answer 5

Yes you can, it cuts off your oxygen supply.

Answer 6

Yes you can absolutely die from it. I hope that you are serious about not trying it. It would be horrible to find you dead somewhere. Only a total idiot would even consider doing such a stupid thing. I don't care if you have done it before and you are reading this, if you did it, you are stupid.
