ifbattleboy - I'm glad that you've realized just how dangerous the 'pass out game' really is. Some field experts refer to it as "Suffocation roulette" as no one really knows when their last time of being alive or getting permanent neurological (brain, spinal cord, nerves) damage. As a professional pointed out, a person can get seizures, stroke ("brain attack"), which is another type of brain injury, and other consequences. Bless you for having an awareness of how dangerous and damaging "the choking game" really is.
Not everyone dies from "Suffocation roulette" either as this teen boy was found in a coma and even though he's been through rehabilitation for brain inury, he has the mind of a 7 or 8 year old kid. His twin brother talks about how heartbreaking it is to have to see his brother in that state:

markbell - I am so sorry about your friend. You're absolutely right that it shouldn't be referred to as a 'game'. The term was probably thought of by the young people themselves not realizing how serious and dangerous the practice really is. You've made another great point about the danger of falling when passing out and getting an injury that way, too. My thoughts and prayers are with your friend. Hoping that he is on the mend really soon.

I joined this site because my daughter also huffs key board cleaner. She knows and now I know the severe dangers of huffing. She can have a massive heart attack, kidneys could fail, brain damage can occur and her liver can be affected. She knows all this but has continued to use it....can after can. A few weeks ago i came home and found her with 5 cans...all used. one after the other. I am afraid one day she will be found dead in her car in a parking lot of CVS
