    Definitely but I remember when I was a kid my parents were always freaking out and telling me not to do bizzare shit. This was one of them.

    "Omg don't suck compressed air or deodorant cans it can kill you!"

    "Why would anyone want to do that?"

    "Kids think it makes them feel high but it can kill you!!!"

    "Huh".

    Two hours later with the neighborhood kids.

    "Yeah so apparently we can get high huffing compressed air who wants to go first?"

    I think the takeaway might be that heart failure in a 14 year old girl absolutely can't be that other thing, it must be caused by... (Checks list) inhaling deodorant.

    Nah see the accelerant in aerosols is actually quite bad for you and can cause you to asphyxiate. It's also highly flammable, used to take a match up to axe cans as kids and get a nice flame thrower going. Would go a good meter or so. Quite cool. Stupid and dangerous through.

    I get that, and I've known people who abused inhalants, it's dangerous and damaging, but they're not saying she was huffing it, and it does seem like trying to attribute heart failure in young people to everything but the covid shot.

    Many of the things "all the kids are doing" I only ever heard of from my parents because they saw it on Dateline (or something similar). Granted, I didn't have a lot of friends in school growing up. Which might be a good thing if this is the stuff kids were doing.

    fake story

    Looks like it happened, you mean because now deodorant is being blamed for heart failure? https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-derbyshire-62078939

    There are people on social media that explain away everything.

    Even when I say my ex got very sick from the vax they debate me.

    Fuck those bitches

    That's a nice way to say a black girl died from huffing to get hi

    I'm not so sure. Keep in mind this is a 14 year old with cardiac arrest

    The article made it sound like she just sprayed it around like air freshener because it reminder her of the smell of her dead mother.

    If deodorant spray was really that dangerous, you'd think we'd have heard of something like this before.

    Bruh.

    Besides sudden cardiac arrest (the most common cause of death from inhalants), huffing can kill quickly in a number of other ways. https://www.drgreene.com/qa-articles/dangers-inhaled-aerosols-huffing

    inhalant abuse, which is also referred to as “volatile substance abuse.” There are a wide array of chemicals in common inhalants that have the potential to cause immediate death. These chemicals can cause cardiac arrest or death in mere moments–and experts agree that there is no safe amount of inhalant. Inhaling poisonous chemicals can cause sudden sniffing death syndrome–a condition where the heart simply stops beating. https://fherehab.com/learning/huffing-and-ssds/

    Spraying a can of deodorant in a lil bathroom is gonna kill you if you don't break it out into a few hundred little sprays at a time

    Perhaps you are right, though I still have some questions about this. Your linked text gives me the impression that these cases involved people that were intentionally huffing it, which you would think would involve much higher concentrations than spraying it around a room that you are in. Maybe it happens and its more dangerous than I realize, but I've never heard of an accidental case like this from non-concentrated exposure, people spray lysol aerosols all over the place all the time. Everyone I knew as a teen used to use it to cover the smell of weed, nobody ever died, and we used a lot in small rooms. Or maybe they are full of shit and the girl was straight huffing it. I don't know, its hard for me to draw a definitive conclusion one way or another about this, its a very unusual set of circumstances, but I'd need more convincing that some secondhand exposure like spraying it in a bathroom can kill you

    Perhaps you are giving the family credit for having more bathroom than they do. Some are pretty small and a whole can of anything would be too much.

    Well if that is the case, these products are awfully dangerous

    Yeah that's why they all say things like "CONCENTRATING AND INHALING THE CONTENTS CAN BE HARMFUL OR FATAL"
