Method Can you die from huffing butane gas?

[KillingPain267]

Or at least get high, lol?

You can but you are frying your brain in the process. It is a great way to give yourself brain damage as well as ruin other organs. Also butane is a flammable gas. So, third degree burns are also not out of the question. It is also psychologically addictive.

Basically do not do this.

Also keep in mind that significant portion of commercially available butane tanks have some nasty additive (mercaptan) which stinks af making inhalation unpleasant to say the least.

If you can get enough, yes.
I know guys that would huff out of a bic lighter. Their pupils would dialate and they giggled a lot. They were running low on more than just oxygen.
