Warning over supersize laughing gas cannisters in UK - BBC News
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2022
- Laughing gas cannisters, one of the most widely used recreational drugs by young people in the UK, are rising in popularity and getting bigger.
The small silver cannisters, also known as nos or nitrous oxide, holding around 8g (0.28oz) of the substance, are being swapped to a supersize versions, around 80 times bigger.
Experts say that supersize ones are riskier because they can lead to people using higher quantities.
Currently in the UK, being in possession of a larger cannister isn’t illegal or against the law. A government commissioned review is assessing whether further action is needed.

Sounds like a report about big media houses.

Hahaha classic
I tried to mix nitrous oxide with oxo, bit of a laughing stock really.
Lmfao!!! 😂😂😂
Don't give up your day job.

"Super sized version is risker, experts say... because it can lead to people using higher quantities"
wow, genius... who would ever though of that, I'm glad an expert cleared that up for us.
Really annoying when people state the obvious Argh
“Less guns would equal less gun violence” 😂
@@jasonpassofaro3305 True " And have you noticed Saturday always follows Friday".
These comments 😂😂
In other news, experts say bigger bottles of soda can lead to people drinking more soda. Fascinating stuff
The canisters can also potentially be CO2 for tyre inflation, or 12g for airsoft guns. The original 8g N2O canisters are actually legal and used for whip cream kitchen devices.
The dangers of N2O do not come from the compound itself. The danger is the fact it displaces oxygen in the respiratory system, causing damage to the body and particularly the central nervous systen. When used in a medical setting, human consumption N2O for anesthetic is a 50% mix with oxygen.
N2O is not a dangerous compound but breathing in a gas for minutes at a time without oxygen is a dangerous activity. You need oxygen and while you breath a pure alternative gas you are not getting any oxygen and any residual oxygen is being replaced. The void of oxygen creates intense strain on the brain and body. Undergo this strain too often and the damage will be cumulative.
Once again the media bias against the so called war on drugs has conveniently missed out this crucial safety information.

💀ITS FINALLY HERE💀
They are misinformed that is not laughing gas but rather what you said is absolutely correct
I understand that you're trying to be fair here, but you're also incorrect, as nitrous oxide has been shown to be neurotoxic in humans upon prolonged exposure, and it also depletes vitamin b12. that's from the compound itself. as a side note, it's also very bad for the environment.
@@Marco-nr4wy Yes, that as well, very true. Thank you for mentioning that too.
@@honey...salguod Single inhalation of nitrous oxide with sufficient oxygen is safe. Or are dentists and doctors deliberately giving people brain damage now?
War on drugs has caused more harm than the drugs themselves. The purpose of harm reduction is not to make drugs sound safe but to provide accurate education on the dangers so people can make educated and informed choices and we can progress to a stage where drugs do less harm to society and we haven't needed to needlessly incriminate innocent young people just looking for a buzz.
You know the legal options are actually less safe in even smaller quantities? Alcohol is toxic and used to steralise and nicotine is a pesticide and is poisonous. So a breath of whip cream gas is more harmful than drinking steraliser and inhaling pesticide? I sincerely doubt it. And no I don't think either of those things need to be illegal either.
This backward mentality of 'just say no' and trying to scare young people out of a taboo with false information and attempts to make it seems more harmful than it is can actually encourage drug use through 'rebellious' phases. I never made use of nitrous seem safe, I corrected the notion that you develop brain damage from single and infrequent use.
Harm reduction not only reduces anxiety and fear in young people who made a simple bad choice to use a drug at a party that they have caused irreparable damage but seeks to change society to be less judgemental and backward thinking. But I suppose to you they're all just worthless addicts and not human beings.
Your mentality is outdated and proven ineffective, the war on drugs has devolved into a persistent insurgency with no victory in sight and a line of lives needlessly ruined and criminalised for making poor choices in the way they have fun. No I am not talking about crack and heroin which are problematic even after a single use, I am talking about genuinely harmless things like weed or psychedelics (which btw if are taken by someone who believes the lies that it's going to make them forever insane, that belief in itself could cause a bad trip and psychological damage), and substances which if used responsibly are even safer than alcohol such as MDMA.
During the 1930s America underwent a prohibition of alcohol which subsequently led to the rise in power and influence of the Mafia and other organised crime groups. By placing substances that whether you like it or not are in high demand into an illegal trade-prohibited category creates an unregulated market for organised criminals who in order to make profit may add harmful additives to bulk their products.
I suggest reading scientific articles surveying drug users, statistical analysis of drug use cases, research into banned or restricted substances aswell as recorded clinical trials and experiments to educate yourself on the reality of these compounds.
The war on drugs in a failure and the mentality that accompanies it is proven to be incorrect. Harm reduction is the only way to advance society in this area.
Doing 600 of anything a week might be detrimental? or so I would think?
@@Mark-lj1dj You do realise that you've just started a new tik toc craze, Mark ? 🤣
What about getting down to business?
That’s an addict 🤣 used to have 100 for a weekend shared with a few others. 😅 and it’s mad that someone could do 600 in a sitting… fml
600 of that a week?.. wowww she really wanted to get high to the heavens
well 600 puffs of air is too little
When I was in the UK, I was seeing them everywhere and I definitely thought these were just CO2 which actually can be used to inflate bike tyres. Now it all makes sense, haha.
Savages. In the US we just buy a multi-gallon take and fill up balloons.
@@Tinylittledansonman in the us you can’t walk down the street without smelling weed my dude… if you can even walk down the street to begin with.
same lol
So, what would happen if I try to inflate my tyres with laughing cannisters? Laughing tyres?
ikr
Nitrous is less harmful than alcohol when used safely. Of course 600 canisters in a week will cause damage to your body. So would drinking a handle a day for a week. Teach harm reduction and educate people on how to use this drug safely, don’t outlaw it. Cracking down on its use will only make it more dangerous
It's not safe, almost all people mix it. Alcohol+weed+nitrous=losing a lot of brain cells. Hell even just weed makes you dumb that's why young people shouldn't use it.
The main issue with drugs is the same with alcohol. In a group if many people are doing it you are far more likely to go over the limit. When under the influence of either drugs or alcohol one is more prone to peer pressure and are more likely to go over their own limits without realizing. No matter how much you educate someone it does not matter if they forget about it when under the influence. Many people say they have self control but trust me when I say very few I any actually do have self control. The best thing it to always make sure there is someone "sober" to stop you from overdoing it with both drugs and alcohol and to make sure you don't turn it into a habit or addiction. I know a lot of people who can handle drugs properly but put them in a group of more than 3 or 4 and one of them is now paralyzed for life and the other one has a complicated history. So safely and in moderation with the right people which many people who do drugs don't have, you're asking for a lot
Actually, the best thing to do is, not to have someone with you who is sober, but to be the sober one. If you can’t have a good time without drugs or alcohol, there’s something wrong with you.
If we know one thing, it's that drug laws work beautifully, illegal substances magically disappear and are never seen again, and the public's need for drugs is also disappearing.
Yeah bro. The Conservative Government are also the best government in the world … 👀
YOU WILL REGRET NOT FOLLOWING THIS ADVICE - Do not inhale laughing gas. The effect you get off inhaling nitrous oxide is not worth the risk at all. Risk being paralyzed, blood pressure problems, brain damage and more for one minute of laughing? That makes me laugh LOL, and why is it that when someone dies off balloons more people then start inhaling them? Make it make sense... ruclips.net/video/jAI9Jdmv7J8/видео.html
People huff gasoline, rubber cement and paint thinner, too. Nitrous is equally common and useful in everything from drag racing to food preparation. It's all about whether or not someone chooses to abuse it or not. The funding and regulation needs to be in education and recovery counseling, not restriction.
Look up JENKUM……🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
And no….screw rehab, let em do what they want….I say give them ALL THAT THEY WANT……….
Because restriction have been SO GREAT! The obscene persecution of cannabis and crack cocaine users in the 1980’s and 90’s is undoubtedly why we have our so-called fentanyl pandemic now, and if governments do their typical knee jerk reaction to this one, there’s a great risk of any one of those cheap, widely available, far more deadly synthetics becoming becoming fentanyl’s successor.
I feel bad for the fentanyl/opioid addicts and wish I could do something to help them improve their lot, but in meantime, at least won’t support embarrassingly archaic tactics of pursuing what is a public health crisis. I’ve always supported cannabis legalization too, since I’m sure it’s helping people refrain from alcohol abuse, and drunks throughout my life have caused me far more grief than drug users.
Another reason to legalise safer alternatives such as cannabis.
There are four types of nitrous oxides. This one harms you slowly, the others instantly.
Some people: "We need to ban them as they can do a handful of people some real harm".
Also same people: "Shops selling alcohol is fine".
The fact that you compare nitrous oxide with alcohol tells me that you probably have no social life and only understands that “alcohol is bad”
They should tax alcohol the same way they tax nicotine. Alcohol ruins lives, alcohol kills through bad decisions, and worst yet it more often disproportionately affects those who AREN’T alchoholics. Three things smoking doesn’t do. (built in rebuttals - Second hand smoke isn’t great but it’s not as bad as actually smoking. And drunk drivers don’t tense up before accidents, so the people they hit are often injured worse)
Some people: "Shops selling alcohol is fine".
Also same people: "Nothing impacts the development of the brain!"
You must have done a lot of shit to think that the brain doesn't take damage from being deprived of oxygen XD
I know kids who got paralyzed and in a wheelchair because use of laugh gass. In Holland alot of poor youth use it from tanks of 2kg they do with 1tank a day hundreds of balloons and then they all get handicapped most of black girls pay for laughing gass with their body
They are choking their brain for having oxygen choke games are deadly
I remember finding these everywhere and thinking they were just for bike tyres, but the more I saw the more suspicious it seemed. I also originally thought the larger canister was just CO2 cans for carbonated water machines.
Ghy
Huh, gee I guess people love to properly maintain their bike's tire pressure

Okay, from a Canadian perspective, this is literally so weird to hear. I've never heard of laughing gas in my life other than The Joker from DC comics.
Same for me : didnt understood any of this
No matter what, addictions comes in many forms
@@DjPh8mous Very true.
cuz it ain’t really laughing gas
In Australia you can order it on your phone and i'll be delivered within the hour with balloons.
@@Samanthnyaa oh god
I visited UK recently & stayed there for a few months.
Very frequently I saw these cannisters scattered on roadside & other places. Always wondered what could these be.
Assumed they might be related to construction work of the road or something like that.
Now I got my answer.
😆
Yes it should be ban in UK
@Gill Munchen hahaha
@Gill Munchen hahhaha..
Not that naive fortunately!
@Gill Munchen that is a possibility
"I like to know how much I'm doing"... her daily intake is that high that it makes no difference. 600 / 7 = 85 cannys per day, and the large canisters hold about 80x the small ones, so you're doing about one large canister per day. I don't think breaking that down into small canisters to 'regulate intake' is really the problem here 😅
Edit:typo
Its all about rationalization......if you cant count or add its easy not to know how many BIG canisters you are doing. Guess she will have to stop buying tattoos and fake eye lashes and start saving to pay someone to change her $hitter when he dad get sick of doing it.
It's crazy really cause if she was genuinely doing that many in a day, I can't even think there'd be time for her to breath any actual oxygen
@@ElSoloNoco Average person breathes about 20,000 times a day......plenty of time for her to be stupid
Lmao put on your big girl panties and put the stuff in a balloon like any other self respecting idiot
Darwin Award for this dumb girl
I remember a old friend used to have used whip it's all over his house. In the kitchen, living room and bathroom. Every freaking where. It was insane.
it's what we have resorted to in the UK..... inhaling gas just to laugh because of everyone's so pissed off 🤣
600 canisters a week and you thought you would just be fine! Lord, lucky you're alive. Also, if she was casual about 600 it was probably way more...
Casual? Did you want her to be sobbing her heart out as she was saying it?
@@RnBReworked no I just mean 600 is probably an underestimation. For instance "I smoke a pack a day" doesn't mean you smoke always 20 cigs..on a crazy night out I may have done two packs ect. Sounds depressing anyway huffing gas all day long.
The actual amount isn’t that important, the issue is that while she’s breathing the gas in, she isn’t breathing in oxygen. Do that for long enough and there will be problems. Take breaks and get fresh air and there probably wouldn’t be.
No doubt she’s now claiming pip or some type of benefit for it.
@@hannahcarney2250 600 is not much in N2O terms. N2O is extremely safe, it has no negative effects. But it drops you B12 vitamin levels, and that causes B12 anemia. Exactly what she had.
I remember being at a rave in the 90s and there were guys with the massive tanks that were robbed from hospitals, the big 50litre ones, this isn't a new thing.. BBC catching on 30 years later 😂😂
Finger on the pulse as usual..
Na we just took Es n poppers

what's so funny??????😁😁😆😆😅😅😂😂🤣🤣
He asks how the dealer can sell it after knowing the possible side effects and makes the dealer seem evil and unempathetic....government literally sells and taxes multiple drugs that kill more each year and doesn't blink an eye.
I literally never once thought I’d meet / hear of an addict whose drug of choice was nitrous. Revelatory.
Doesn't surprise me. Nitrous is amazing, especially if mixed with other drugs (especially hallucinogens). I love it. I barely ever use it tho. A heavy nitrous habit would cost a stupid amount of money.
@@McFwoupson I also loved it. But I loved actual drugs way more. It’s like - $50 on nitrous carts to feel like I’m drowning, or $50 on a🐰 to melt my life away. No comparison. Thank god I don’t have to live like that anymore.
@@n00dles79 Yeah I can't imagine using it daily, or as a fix. I just use it on special occasions, like if I'm at a music festival and took mdma or a hallucinogen. Have had some mind blowing experiences after doing nitrous lol. Shit is expensive unless you're able to get a tank filled somewhere. Even then it's still a little pricey. Great drug but horrible to use/abuse it daily.
@@McFwoupson I’d imagine it’s akin to choking yourself unconscious repeatedly until you pass out. Similar brain damage happening. I have also had some wild experiences with it.
Banning everything should not be a solution . People should own up to the risks .
Then the world ends up like LA
adults should be able to make their own choices and not have to be babied by the government
@@Blue-bf8lv A lot of young people need to be babied as their parents failed. Especially the younger generation in London, so many waste men. Your idea of utopia is unrealistic.
Yep. Girl was using 600 canisters a week. Like what did you expect
@@TheTriggerhappyhippi Unfortunately people like her need the government to baby them
I’d of thought the government would have given these out for free. As we all are laughing at our bills at the minute.
Don't you mean crying you Muppet
@@TROYW10whooooo you hard!
It,s free for laugh look in the mirror .
These aren't chemically addictive and don't risk spread of other diseases to people that's the difference. For example heroin is chemically addictive and spreads disease that costs more on the medical system than it would to just supply clean needles and access to safer forms of the drug. Laughing gas isn't that its just a party drug people take too far. Government ain't gonna be handing out acid tablets to anybody either.

Why so serious?

600 in a week, seems like she didnt give a fuck how much she was taking if it was big or small. Poor girl, shout out to her Dad for caring for her and shout out to her for raising awareness.
ignorance about drug saftey is not an excuse.
She is old enough to have common sense to not use it like that. So he didn't bring he up so well.
These are highly addictive and they are not good for your brain.
@You don't Need to know
Not really. It depletes some vitamin if you do a lot of it and you're pretty much holding your breath while using it.
Not breathing for prolonged times is obviously bad for your brain, so don't forget to breathe every now and then. Should be common sense. And take your vitamins if you create deficiencies.
Foregoing safer use practices with any substance is potentially detrimental to your health. (Water, sugar, salt, vitamin supplements, caffeine, alcohol, pain meds, …)
She’s not a fkn victim she’s just dumb
I saw like 200 of these in a car park in Gloucester, that was a impressive looking pile. That guy must still be laughing to this day
My mate would always be like “oh should we just get smart whips?”
I said “no, get canisters” every time.
Substance abuse is no joke. But nitrous? If you're doing so much of the stuff that you rely on the size of the container to keep your usage in check, it really does boil down to a matter of Darwinism at that point.
It's there choice to do it, so leave them to it
@@SamuelBlack84 That's the idea champ

@@SamuelBlack84 I don't need to believe you, I _already_ know these things. Where exactly do you think I'm "giving sympathy" here anyway?

Guys those larger tanks have always been around. Both sizes are easily available at cooking/kitchen/culinary supply warehouses. They mostly use them for whip cream and various desserts. It’s the same propellant in regular old whip cream canisters in the grocery. None of this is new kids were regularly using this in the 80s & 90s and probably before. Every bought whip cream at the grocery and the cream didn’t want to come out? It’s likely some kid snuck into the dairy cooler and got high on the whippets.
The irony is the Gov't banned the smaller ones to prevent the yoots huffing it, instead they now just buy industrial sized ones. Who woulda thunk it ayh.
No they didn’t, only the last 15/20 years if that!

Ikk man legit whenever i go out i see them things on the floor and roads
I hate when people do drugs and then do bad shit. I do drugs all the time but I never litter, I have a job, a family, I love the outdoors. Drugs are cool but shitty people shouldn’t take them. 😤
'The larger canisters weren't for me, because I want to know how much I'm doing'...proceeds to use too many of the smaller canisters anyway and has 'life changing' consequences. Maybe I'm getting old, but the lack of intelligence in kids is truly unfathomable.
Yeah I about died when he held up the big canister 😂😂😭
No point warning kids about the dangers of stuff like this. They wouldn't do it in the first place if they cared about negative effects.
Do you drink alcohol? If so, you are consuming a substance that is far more dangerous than this.
There not all morons, it's about knowing what the risks and the benefits are, unfortunately no one source is going to tell you both.
@@owenthomas5103 From the replies I'm getting people seem to think I'm commenting on the use of this drug and the people who do it. I'm not. I'm simply saying when you're young you don't consider harmful things. You just don't care much about that stuff. So if you want kids to stop doing something, it's no use telling them it's dangerous. I sniffed gas and petrol when I was a kid, started smoking cannabis at 13. Didn't give a toss about dangers. That was part of the attraction.
@@grantm6933 I'm not making any comment about how dangerous this drug is though. Just saying how useless it is to threaten the young with tales of negative effects. When you're young, you just don't care, so it's a waste of time fingerwagging. The fact you think I'm fingerwagging myself is kind of funny.
So how are they supposed to know the negative effects, if you don't warn them? 🤔
These people are just doing it to escape their situation and are hooked on the feeling. I don't think there is a chemical addiction but rather a psychological addiction.
That's every drug basically, we just say some are fine and some aren't.
@@Samanthnyaa not really when crack and heroin are much more destructive and properly addictive. I think nos is a light drug but it still shouldn't be abused.
@@nathanielc6286 nos can be life threatening in the long run, it produce vitamin deficiency and in the end long lasting nerve damage. The big difference between nos and heroin for exemple is purity and availability, nos is as pure as it gets but it’s widely available and that’s an issue, on the other hand heroin isn’t particularly available (fortunately) but it’s very crude and usually taken in unhealthy situations which is where most of the damage stem from. Medical grade opiate aren’t as devastating even if they are very dangerous. We as a society should educate people on how to lessen the damage in every cases and work on availability (restrictions to minors, special conditions, withdrawal and so on…)
Legalise it, sell it mixed with oxygen, tax it
Theres a root cause of all this - people are disillusioned, broke, prospects are grim, and depressed in general.
At some point we should look at the society and ask why it makes people want to escape to substances.
But its easier to just blame the user and criminalizing them for not being strong enough.
600 canisters is INSANE... the fact that someone can take that much of a drug and still live shows how safe that drug is compared to basically any other drug, (alcohol, tobacco or even caffeine..)
Amazing, let's ramp it up to 6000 then?
Don't be stupid.
well nitrous is pretty darn safe, unless you do something stupid like put a bin bag full of it over your head, or start driving whilst under the influence.

The key takeaway here is moderation.
No babe, it isn't. Using laughing gas the wag they do is just causing hypoxia. That's why you get euphoric. You're dying.
@@bilbofaggin5
The gas itself is psychoactive! You can experience hypoxia, but thst is NOT the cause of tge euphoric state. By that logic, I could experience euphoria just by choking myself!
@@Danko_Sekulic ever heared of autoerotic asphyxiation ?! some ppl get euphoric getting choked!
Or to get a better interest than manipulating your body and mind by unhealthy drugs.
Moderation with a short lasting, addictive drug is hard to achieve. Especially when you buy them in boxes of 100s. They need restricting massively.
Anything can be overused, but cannabis seems a better option; potheads are annoying, but rarely suffer injury, maybe decriminalization of weed in the UK would cut down in NOS use?
Potheads are annoying lol such a blatant and asinine generalization. Go back to school
Used for totally different experiences. Encouraging weed use isn’t going to combat Nos.
What's worse than an annoying Pothead? "The Belligerent Drunk." (Public/transport drinkers)
It's commonly known as "hippy crack" for a reason. During a massive bong hitting period of my life, basically I could enhale a lot, it just felt wrong in my lungs. Massive abuse of it (or just randomly, for the unlucky) can result in a collapsed lung.
What I'm trying to say is that it's not about weed OR NOS. NOS users will continue to use it, weed users will smoke, cross over users will use both.
It's a bit idiotic to ban possession of the smaller cannisters but not the big ones.
People probably wouldn’t use drugs so much if society and life was better.
Most of the time it’s just about escaping the shit reality most of us live in
When I went to England I got shocked by the amount of those things I saw in streets and parks.
I’ve seen more canisters than cigarettes on the floor in the past couple of years
There are almost no short or long term health effects for the vast majority of users. Hospitalisation is extremely rare.

Bro it's not so bad. You look fried when you are doing it but it doesn't effect you much permanently if you make sure you take your b12 pills.
No need to ban these. Simply provide recycling bins alongside non-recyclable trash cans.

The only time I've ever seen that large of a
N.O.S. container is for drag racing or the little sports cars that use nitrous oxide for the Speed Higher Power and RPMs you know you see them in the movies and for racing.
I remember walking to school, and seeing plenty of these capsules on the ground.
This actually needs to be talked about so easy to become addicted to something that dosnt resemble a normal drug
People are stupid as shit. Nitrous oxide is extremely safe. Not harmful at all. In fact it was revolutionary when it came about in the medical world.
You can use NOS safely. Just don't use it every single week, allow time for your B12 to activate again, and dont use in large amounts.
Nitrous has been around for a super long time. This isn't anything new at all, and it's well known about. Nitrous is actually a pretty safe drug. Definitely way safer then alcohol. It's got such a short lived high and costs quite a bit which tends to keep people away from using it all the time.
I tried this once back in the 90s. Originally it was a joke eating whip cream then WTF. WOW. Then why am I on floor? Yea so fun. 30 seconds of lightheadedness then out you go. I've seen countless people do this at a party from balloons. Same thing every time. They talk to nobody and pass out while their balloon flies off. They wake up and act like they are stuck in 1st gear. That garbage WILL make you stupid. You are killing your brain cells for a 30 second high.
Go buy some weed and have a better time awake. Go hike or build a deck or something.
This garbage just shuts you down. FUN .....
N2O doesn't kill your brain cells, lack of oxygen does.
@@afroninjadeluxe Think about that for second. Lack of oxygen is only part of the problem. Oxidation can completely destroy a car's frame. Oxidation in brain cells is the same thing. NOS has been proven to kill brain cells. The reason people pass out is one the overload of your systems and two a survival instinct. It's your bodies last effort to stop you from hurting it. Too stupid to stop and your body says. Ok.. Lights out pal.
It's NOT just a lack of oxygen. It tricks your body into thinking it's getting enough oxygen so it churns along at normal pace. This causes an imbalance in neurons and the chemicals used to cross the gap and find open receptors. Your body is trying to make specific chemicals to function. Impairment changes that process by speeding it up or slowing it down while adding a massive amount of whatever is getting you high. With NOS your body will start producing "close enough" chemicals as it runs out of building blocks from MANY different areas and "factories" in your body. It mixes these resources and bam. Makes ATP. Just an example of one mix.
Supplies run low. No warning bells or alarms so off it goes making essentially overly simple cancer type cells. They get stuck in the receptiers and whatever they triggered stays triggered. Your body can't clean these receptors while sleeping adding to the issue till they simply burn out.
And that's just the start. Non food grade NOS sources tend to be peoples next stop from popper/crackers. 5lb bottles and balloons normally filled from the cheapest source they can find locally. We had a TON of people ask if we sold NOS when we had a car performance shop in the early 2000s.
Lack of oxygen. Oxidation of cell walls and blocked receptors leading to cell death is what awaits you before adding in random chemicals from the source of NOS.
@@lknanml N2O is a drug given to pregnant women as pain relief.
Literally this, its not worth it. Ive done it myself and definitely fucked my brain up. repeated blackouts are no joke.
@@afroninjadeluxe LOL Yes LOL I know and at the dentist. Come on. Obviously we are not talking about normal use here. We are talking about ABUSE.
A glass of wine a day is good for you with some proven health benefits.
A bottle of wine a day is good for getting cirrhosis.
If you spend years parting all the time with NOS there will be lasting health damage.
Once a month won't do much to you unless you have an adverse reaction with bad NOS or passing out and falling into a pool. Which I have seen first hand. Hey did Jon just pass out and fall it or jump in? Floats back up arms out head down ballon still in his mouth. Yep. Fell in. Used the leaf and bug skimmer to hook his face and pull over to the side so we could lift him up. Didn't come around for another 30 seconds. WTF. Why am I all wet?
Hey. Even too much pure oxygen can kill you.
Just legalise pot, the people will stop inhaling that stuff.
No comparison between effects of NOS and Cannabis.
@@Matt-vp6eq most people would rather smoke weed but dont due to the illegal risk, NOS is legal and is the next best option
I feel like every time a new drug is discovered unless media publicize it no one will ever abuse it lol
Everything is fine in moderation, 600 canisters a week is just stupid
Nothing like having the luxury of taking a dump anytime right there in the park on your personal mobile poo wagon
lmfao
Thanks BBC. I had no idea they made these. Just ordered a few👍

I've worked in a hotel and i don't think there's a rule for seeing these thing's and reporting them, which is totally annoying.
“Can be really harmful” person harmed by it using 600 a week 😭 wonder why
I don't understand why some mind altering substances are allowed and others are not. It makes no sense at all, except for the greed of those in charge. I'm sure alcohol is one of the most dangerous drugs. It changes your personality and makes you do things that you wouldn't dream of doing under normal circumstances. Also it can kill you if you suddenly stop drinking when you are an alcoholic, but that's allowed as they are cashing in off it. I just don't get why alcohol and cigarettes are both known to be really bad for you. In fact worse than alot of illegal drugs. It's an absolute joke. You could get pissed up every single day and that's fine, but have the occasional spliff and your classed as some sort of degenerate. This world is an absolute joke!!
Also why are magic mushrooms illegal when they have now found them to be very useful in treating depression, anxiety, addiction problems, yet they are still prescribing antidepressants that don't work on many people and even if they do it's not for long as you become immune to them.
I feel you.. just sit on a cloud ☁️ my guy .. rest easy
It should not be illegal to alter your mind with chemicals. If you break the law whilst under the influence then that should just be treated as you breaking te law.
@Andrew Smythe Well you can microdose for depression, or you can take a full on trip. Both are apparently helpful. Anyway the point I was making was that the legal drugs are also dangerous, but the government still sells them to cash in. Alcohol can cause you to feel tired and lethargic the next day also.
Besides nitrous oxide kills bad trip when I am on acid. They just have to get the elephant out of the room, legalise psychedelic and only allow people to use it with it.
You don't become immune to antidepressants, you become addicted to them.
The Nitrous oxide "whippets" (tiny canisters) are food grade. The bigger size used for welding or racing is impure and contains Nitric Oxide and Nitrogen Dioxide which turn into *Nitric Acid* in your lungs.
@Gavin Gas I got Pneumonia from inhaling NO2 in our lab. H2O plus NO2 equals HNO3 plus NO (which reacts with O2.) It is an impurity when ammonium nitrate is decomposed to N2O. Iodide paper turns dark with welding nitrous, not with food grade nitrous.
@Gavin Gas Perhaps different in Britain, but restaurant supplier s here don't sell equipment that uses huge nitrous bottles. Only bottles that size in US are in welding supply stores.
@Gavin Gas In a compendium about toxicity (medical library at UW) an experiment with rats living and breeding in 95% Nitrous Oxide for several months showed only anomaly was low birth weight, but only 5% Oxygen (= 3300 meters altitude) may explain that. FYI the LD50 acute for Water is around 2 gallons.
what's so funny??????😁😁😆😆😅😅😂😂🤣🤣
These new ones are made as clean nitrous from what I have seen.
Fun fact we have been selling tanks of 10 kg gas for years now in the Netherlands
I remember getting co2 cartridges like this for my BB gun. And when I used to see them on the floor up town I though it was people changing out there BB gun co2 😂
Imagine people defending drug overdose, I can’t believe I’m paying taxes to save someone doing 600 canisters
You don't think the NHS should help those who get injured by their own recklessness?
Always wondered what they were .... laughing gas? I tried some when Mrs was giving birth, in my defense, I needed it more than her.
I think if you do this stuff it’s mandatory to throw the canisters on the floor and not in the bin.
She depleted all of her b12 acting like she didn’t know what she did to her body
those discarded little gas bottles are death traps,hit one of them on a motorcycle and youve had yer chips.
So thats what those were! Started seeing them on my way to university in Manchester around a year ago. Whenever I would ride in the bike lane I would always spot around 5 of them discarded on the path.
Just like cigarettes there’s a warning label on it, “CAUTION WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH WHEN USED”
A little moderation goes a long way
I used to think all of these I've seen were for airsoft guns, now that I think about it and seeing them all over it's starting to make sense
Same here, I thought it was from BB guns.
That poor girl.I hope she recovers
Stupid decisions have consequences......I hope they denied her disability of not feeling her legs. This is how we learn
Done it to herself 600 is just stupidity
No sympathy at all
thanks bbc, you're about 14 years late to this
These people wasting the NHS and emergency services time and money by doing dumb things, they never learn
I understand what you are feeling, but substance abuse is best treated as a health problem just as you would a broken arm of a reckless skateboarder, for example.
@@berniethekiwidragon4382 ngl bro half the people doing this shit are stupid teens following trends id confidently say 90% people doing nos aren’t doing it for their mental health
When I was younger I’d always see them nearly everywhere on the pavement… some even ended up in our own garden LMAO. I also used to thought these were for bikes but came to realise the dark truth as I got older 😭
Also that guy in the video who sells them… if you think people shouldn’t be using the canisters them why sell them. You basically earn money to ruin someone’s life…
I see alot of them scattered around the place, especially the park and honestly i had no clue what they were for or what it was. I seen the silver can online after that then i realised what they were used for. To me it looked like part of a watergun lol
No he sells them the canisters so they can ruin there own life. He's not the one ruining there lives there doing that them selves. If people didn't buy he wouldn't be able to sell.
Propaganda mate
I sell these every day at my job lol one guy hasn't changed his outfit at all this week but has bought these tanks every day. There's clearly a personal choice being made if you're buying these. If i didn't have them to sell, they just go to the next guy, it's not like it stops them.
i have an airsoft gun and used to find these around my area and thought people played airsoft near me this is very surprising
It took me weekly injections of B12 for around a year combined with physical therapy and it got significantly better.
Last week I saw a cardboard box with 10+ of the big blue canisters sitting at the side of the road. I didn't check if they were spent or just forgotten, but this is ineded happening at industrial scale. I'm not in the UK but mainland Europe has the same problem. Laughing gas has a history as party drug. "Laughing gas parties" were popular in the 1700'!
They were spent
@@Liammulli Lol Eddy, hope you had fun!
They had nitrous in the 1700s?

So thats what those silver things I keep seeing in the school playground.
I don't use it but please legalise it. Then sell it in shops. With health warnings (and safety instructions) also tax it. Everyone wins.
It's already legal. It's already sold. It's already taxed. This is some woo-new-scary-thing hack job made to scare people into banning the next woo-scary-thing. Ignore it and move on, if you value having a life free of authoritarianism.

You have to remember these canisters are also used for bakeries and legit purposes.. Making it harder to control and regulate.

The sole reason the guy halfway through can get his hands on them to sell, is due to the "loophole" open allowing anyone to buy them....
My response was merely in reply to "nice to see the laws prohibiting sales working well" when in fact there are no laws prohibiting sale as they're readily available for anyone to buy...
This sounds like something Batman should handle.
When I have seen those CO2 canisters everywhere (a lot of them as well) I always thought to my self “oh, I wonder why people need to fill their bike tires so much lately?” I didn’t think it used as a drug.
not co2, n2o is the drug
Wow who would of guessed that 600 cans a week would do you some damage 😂
