I'm bored.. and wanted to know if stuff like this irish accent spray works?

i saw it in a shop today over in cardiff and was tempted but thought.. hmm nah, this stuff probably is a load of garbage..

link and thoughts?, thanks.
 
Helium contains the same properties, buy a nice big tube of that
 
last freshers week they were dispensing helium balloons to the crowd. With the warning that inhaling it could lead to instant death. That kinda sucked the fun out of it a little.

nah.

Actually, you can, if you BREATHE it in (not just inhale it).

Because it's heavier than air.
If you have a problem and can't breath anymore, you have to turn yourself upside down so that it will come out.
If you don't you can die. Though it rarely happens.

Helium is LIGHTER than air, thats why it floats

Just what I wanted to say :D

By the way, whats the difference between inhaling and breathing? I never thought of that... I thought both is taking in and blowing out...

Inhaling = Letting the gas go into your mouth/nose.
Breathing = Letting the gas go into and out of your lungs.

Wikipedia - Helium said:
[...]Although the vocal effect of inhaling helium may be amusing, it can be dangerous if done to excess. The reason is not due to toxicity or any property of helium but simply due to it displacing oxygen needed for normal respiration. One must be aware that in mammals (with the notable exception of seals) the breathing reflex is not triggered by insufficient oxygen but rather excess of carbon dioxide. Unconsciousness, brain damage and even asphyxiation followed by death may result in extreme cases. Also, if helium is inhaled directly from pressurized cylinders the high flow rate can fatally rupture lung tissue.[...]

So how can the helium effect your speech if just have it in your mouth?

You have to breath it in and out, no?

since its less dence, ur vocal cords has less "air resistance" so it can vibrate faster. Therefore your voice it higher,

you have to breath it in then speak, if you breath out after most of the helium would have just gone to waste... do u understand...?
