The big tell is the Nitrous itself doesn’t need to be flavored if it’s used for food. Clearly it’s used to get high
And if you are breathing in a gas, why does it need a flavor?
Stupid...
I wanna see someone make whipped cream with that stuff and see if it puts any flavor in, I really doubt it.
The strength that the flavouring would have to be to have it come out in the whipped cream would be so strong that someone couldn't get high off it without puking.
Should have bittergent in it, but clearly they want people to huff the shit
i think it is ment to infuse drinks with it
People used to laugh at Steve-O for being addicted to laughing gas. Now it's a trend. And rappers and these idiots on these podcasts promote it on camera. Hats off, great role models.
I mean should we really be surprised that people on the Internet change their minds about anything and everything as soon as it suits them?
Steve-O, Brittney Spears, Brendan Fraser... We should really start practicing empathy towards people for a change. It's better than hindsight.
Rap is the cause of like 90% of the issues with black youth and I'm tired of it being so mainstream
as someone who went through a drug abuse phase when I was younger its essentially (although not exactly the same feeling) shitter, more dangerous, more expensive ketamine. don't do drugs but if you're gonna do dissociatives stick to the horse tranq
Let the dumb ones take themselves out. This is a great way of helping prevent the movie Idiocracy from becoming a documentary.
I watched a dude hit duster so hard the fumes rolled out his nose as he passed out, fell on his back flat as a board smacked his head and siezured and convulsed violently for about 30 seconds. About to call 911 to report a dead guy when he jumped up laughing and asked why we were looking at him so concerned... Never had it and will never touch it.
Duster is nasty stuff and contains solvents. It kills people pretty regularly.
This is pretty common if you take too much. There are also tons of stories that there where people just stop breathing entirely.
Computer duster isn't nitrous oxide, it's Freon the same refrigerant used in automotive air conditioning systems. Both can cause that type of asphyxiation but the reason air duster is intoxicating is because it asphyxiates you, the reason nitrous is intoxicating is because the chemical itself is an intoxicant. The sensation you get from duster is essentially the same that you would get if you took all of the oxygen out of your lungs
Knew a dude fell straight into the corner off the coffee table knocked his front teeth in. 8th grade another buddy died. Never hit them myself
Is it bad that sounds fun to me?
Didnt steve o specifically say that his time huffing shit was one of the worst points in his life?? Like if the guy who is like 95% drugs at this point wont touch it u probably shouldnt either lol
It's called 'Hippy Crack' for a reason...if you have them, and you have the slightest bit of addict in you, you'll just keep doing them
Steve-O out on bail. I remember watching that documentary back in like 06’. Crazy
The high felt from huffing is literally from the brain damage it causes.
@@iVETAnsolini It's insane. That the guy pulled himself out of that place is inspiring. But I'd never touch whippets after seeing that shit.
He's been clean for something like 18 years.
My neighborhood's been littered with nitrous oxide whipping cream containers for years, as the local opioid addiction rates have gone up. It's awful that kids are using so early, and so heavily. Long-term use messes with mental health and can also lead to anemia, nerve damage, and Vitamin B12 deficiency.
This is your sign to stop using. It's never too late to quit.
what does nitrous have to do with opioids in any way?
@@nwhydoyoucareohe’s sayin cause opioids are getting more expensive n shit more ppl are turning to n2o to get high instead
Drug abusers get bored and try new things @@nwhydoyoucareo
@@nwhydoyoucareogood question
@@nwhydoyoucareo If you can't get one drug, you might turn to another to deal with the addiction.
Dang, whippets have been around since the 70's
I tried it in 2003, and it was just a thing edgy kids tried for fun. It was never a huge fad like this. Crazy 😂
Is that how long they have been around?
Nitrous parties were popular in the 1800s
@@КГБКолДжорджКостанцаlonger, queen Victoria held nitrous parties, girlie was ruling Britannia from cloud 9
I used to work at an ice cream restaurant as a teen and one of the guys would randomly take a trash bag of nitrous.
I never used it, I remember laughing on it when a doctor gave it to me, but I don't want to be so high I will fall asleep!
In the UK the law regarding nitrous canisters was recently made a lot stricter. Due to deaths and brain damage caused by the use of it.
Although it is still available for the catering industry which still allows illegal usage of it I personally have seen a massive reduction in the usage of it.
That explains why the Irish where having a big uptick in online purchases.
Where did you get this info? 😊@@3_character_minimum
I saw a couple of these massive catering size NO cartridges, spent, and left on a bin in the town near me just recently. I guessed that this was the direction that the trend was now taking here.
I live near Glastonbury, so not surprises that I would see this, I suppose.
I watched Steve-O go through this in realtime on MTV. You should all watch it to watch how he came back from rock bottom. Doing whipits was his rock bottom.
TV is scripted...
I don't disagree with the message, but that wasn't real.
He was doing tons of other drugs plus whipits tho
@volvo09 no stevo was off his rocker that was indeed real
@@volvo09he was 100% addicted to drugs and nitrous. That wasn’t scripted.
@@volvo09 Bro you're not understanding, the shows might have been scripted but the dude was off his rocker and acting like a maniac because of the drugs.
I once worked with a couple who huffed so bad and had so much brain damage that they were both not only intellectually disabled but the female could no longer walk and was incontinent. They lost 9 babies to the system but kept getting pregnant again. Talk about ruining lives!!!!
Nitrous isn't like other inhalants/huffing. It's significantly less dangerous. People huffing gasoline, freon, glue, pain, are fucked.
@@Xvladin yet Nitrous will make you brain damaged but yeah thats "not bad huh" aduhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@@Xvladinlet’s not try and play a “which gas kills the least brain cells” cause THEY ALL DAMAGE YOUR BRAIN
@@fayerawcliffe7794 yes and no: most other inhalants damage your brain *orders of magnitude* worse than nitrous. It's a bit like saying drinking Gatorade and sea water will both eventually cause sodium overdose and cardiac arrest. That's strictly true, but the difference in amount you'd need to ingest is so large that it's not even really worth mentioning the heart-stopping dangers of drinking Gatorade. Source: PhD in toxicology
The issue isn't necessarily brain damage as long as you are getting enough air, but long term use causes severe B vitamin deficiency which leads to nerve damage. That is how some people end up in a wheel chair.
Another dead giveaway on the intent beyond canisters that size only making sense for commercial uses, and selling it to head shops and online instead of only only to restaurant/bar supply businesses, is the fact that they're "flavored".
No chef/bartender I know has ever said, "If only these N2O chargers came flavored. That would surely elevate my cream/foam/cocktail/etc....", since they're aware that whatever the adulterant is, it's gonna adversely affect the flavor of the dish/drink they're making.
As a cook myself, I've never heard of flavored NO2, but now I actually do want to see if it would elevate my whipped cream game... like for real, if the flavor imparts into the cream, it would be a sick shortcut, as flavoring whipped cream is usually a pain. It breaks too easily with certain additions as milk generally dislikes citrus.
@anon2234 would love th know but as far as I'm aware the flavouring is just an aerosol so it just smells.
@@anon2234 I love me some food science, but I don't trust most manufacturers are developing these with particularly good execution of the flavor
@@anon2234 Yea it would, no2 by itself changed the flavour of your whipped cream, making it sweeter
@@anon2234 It's an interesting thought experiment, but I can't help but think it's gonna introduce at least some "off" and artificial notes that just can't be worked around.
My uncle who's been a paramedic for literal decades said they used to keep nitrous oxide on ambulances as a relatively safe anesthetic and pain killer. But they had to stop because, as you can imagine, people started abusing it.
Entonox/Nitrous Oxide is still widely used as an analgesic, mainly because it has very few contraindications, it's fast acting and short lasting, patients can easily self-administer the amount they need, and when delivered via an appropriate mouthpiece and supervised by someone trained in its use, it's almost impossible to overdose since the mouthpiece requires the patient to actively suck on it to administer it (if you pass out, you can't suck, and so you can't self-administer more).
It's also a mixture of 50/50 N2O and O2, to prevent asphyxiation/hypoxia.
People could abuse it, but they could also try and obtain controlled drugs from an ambulance (morphine etc), and controlled drugs are arguably easier to carry around than a cylinder and demand valve for N2O/O2.
The issue with its use recreationally is that there isn't necessarily the 50/50 mix (and thus asphyxia is a very real concern; most deaths and injuries are due to N20-induced hypoxia), and when delivered via an innapropriate mechanism (such as a balloon or straight valve) there isn't the active demand and so the gas will just keep flowing out even when the user is unconscious.
Usa and piss flag
@@jobblejosh9713 I feel like I should also add, the few documented cases of people recreationally using this drug (allegedly) without too much harm involve waiting at least 4-6 weeks before each use, usually binges. (I have never done it myself). This supposedly has to do with replenishing the B12 absorption inhibition the drug causes (which leads to brain/nerve damage in most users).
This also makes sense to explain why it is safe for medical use because you're not gonna be having dental surgery everyday for months.
Obviously, kids who watch a few tiktoks and who go to buy this huge canister at their local smoke shops will not do that or practice any other kind of harm reduction. Even if you are "doing it only on Saturdays", even if doing every other bit of harm reduction and inhaling properly, you can still end up paralyzed and/or have serious brain damage because that is still way too frequently.
It's incredibly addictive hence the name hippie crack. Hence why 99% of people who buy this galaxy gas, will end up with brain damage.
What you mentioned, the asphyxiation that can occur during use, is well documented in abusers and is called "fishing out", because you will literally end up spazzing on the ground like a fish out of water gasping for air. Some people (infamously steve O) will actually purposefully do this for an additional high that is purely from lack of oxygen to the brain. Which by itself is many many times more accutely neurotoxic meaning immediate brain damage, whereas even when "inhaling properly" N20 is toxic through chronic abuse (sadly this is very frequent too).
@@jobblejosh9713this guy is 100%..
don't abuse these gasses..
There is a fire issue with this and the 50/50.. don't mess with it.
@@jobblejosh9713 finally, some facts
Knew a guy that used to do it heavy back in the day. He said he quit because after one too many hits he ended up drooling all over the front of his shirt. He said that this is when he realized that this might be doing some brain damage (not after I told him at least 100 times that it was for sure damaging his brain...sometimes people are like that). Luckily the dude ended up staying quit and did something with his life.
Culinary guy here. I have seen so many people who have been fired for stealing the whipits from work its wild. The idea that they make canisters bigger than the small sized ones for charging a whiped cream canisters is so laughably obvious its not used for said canisters
That was the take away for me. The flavors also give it away. I love making weird whipped creams and adding flavor to the cannisters does absolutely nothing for the taste.
@@pkmntrainerlilly5do the flavors in galaxy gas actually do anything to whipped cream? If not that is so ridiculous
Back in my day Nitrous Oxide was only known for making cars go vroom vroom faster
Wrong nitrous lmfao
@DrakeDaraitis WRONG AGAIN, LOSER
Funny enough, "galixy gas" is not food grade, its vehicle nos
@@DrakeDaraitisfact check
@@CorpsesReborn I was just going to say its not medical grade or even food grade. Its the same Nitrous Oxide use in cars. The flavour is to cover up the sulphur Dioxide. Which is added to prevent people from inhaling it.
My stepbrother passed away from using it. I have no respect for people who sell things that are a cover for people just to misuse.
Damn bro.
Is it really a cover? The intended use is genuinely to get high, the "you can't prove we aren't selling it to be used for whip cream" is just the legal reason they're allowed to exist.
#PurduePharma
i'm sorry about your brother.
Sorry for your loss. Hopefully they outlaw this shit! It’s crazy.
Hey Coffee! I actually work in the vape industry and know & have the phone number of the owner of Cloud 9 that you talked about. We actually talked to him at the Champs Vegas trade show earlier this year (they had the BIGGEST booth you can get). We don’t carry any nitrous products for the exact reasons you explained and the danger they pose to users. If you decided to report further on this, I’d be glad to answer questions you might have about Nick!
LOL Being in the vape industry is about as good as being in supplements- what ever happened to the people that put vitamin E in vapes and gave kids popcorn lung? What about the new vapes that are equipped with LCD displays, lithium ion batteries and are intended to be disposed in landfills. (I assume intent in landfills absent a strong product lifecycle policy from the product vendor, including paid return postage and recycling).
@@veccio 1st of all; popcorn lung was caused by diacetyl, not Vitamin E. Diacetyl was immediately banned in all vape products once the link was found. 2nd of all, the kids who were sent to hospitals with Vitamin E in vapes were using black market THC vape cartridges, not legitimate nicotine products sold at a legitimate store. Lastly, those vapes you're talking about with LCD displays and lithium-ion batteries meant to be thrown away are heavily looked down upon by the vaping community for exactly that reason. I don't think vaping is a good thing, but if you're going to make an argument against it, make it a well-informed argument.
@@veccioas another person in the industry the goal is ALWAYS to move customers to more sustainable options than disposables, and hopefully to get them off of nicotine entirely at some point, by tapering, using cbd to curb oral fixation, etc.
There’s always gonna be shops and people in any industry that just don’t give a shit but assuming everyone is like that is dumb
Commenting to boost this to Coffee!
Currently in the process of kicking vape-nic myself (it’s hell lol) but absolutely advocate for exposing the danger & corruption to help move the industry towards a safer & more sustainable user environment.
So why did he promote galaxy gas lmfao
I'm on Dublin, Ireland and you see these empty cannisters littered around the place. I've seen 12-14years do it in broad daylight at 3pm. These companies need to be shut down. At least make the legal age to buy this stuff over 18yrs.
It used to only be sold in head shops, which you needed to be 18 or older to enter. That's basically how it was regulated. That and they came only in the small, 2 or 3 inch long, 3/4 inch round cartridges. I've done it back in the day, but I've never understood how people get addicted to it. In any case, how tf are people walking around doing this in broad daylight or in schools, especially little kids?
I've been wondering how Ireland's doing with the benzo crisis, I remember it used to be pretty serious. Are kids switching to nitrous or is it just an addition? Nitrous and benzos sound like a serious recipe for disaster.
The Curragh is littered with them. They need to be straight up banned
I'm more than fine with underage people having the right to whip cream for desserts taken away from them if it means less abuse tbh
I’m from England and in my mid 40’s and about 25 years back it was big over here!!!! I know people who have abused it and ended up addicted to it and end up having strokes and even worse brain damage !!!
Mate balloons have been a thing over here for at least 20 years, since I was at uni back in the early 2000s. Looks like the Americans have just discovered it, tho we just had the little canisters and a whipped cream dispenser not those massive fire extinguishers the kids got now
@@bobsworth7082No, it isn't new in America. White people in the hippy scene were doing it back in the 70's and it was a thing when I was a kid in the 90's. What is new is black people are doing it in rapping about it for the first time.
@@Steve-ev6vx that's pretty funny because have a couple of balloons was what you do at a friend's house when you've got back from the club or at a house party, it's definitely not "glamorous", just funny. If you go to Brick Lane right now there's guys selling them 3 for £10 literally as we speak. So funny how the "rappers" have jumped on this
@@bobsworth7082 the drug scene has gotten pretty dark over here. About 10 years ago now, all of the sudden the black guys that sell coke, crack and weed had ounces of meth in their pocket and started selling heroin again. Then came the fentanyl and tranq. The number of homeless people, even in conservative states, is insanely high and now hard drugs are cheap enough for them.
A St Louis jury recently awarded $700+ MILLION against a Whip-It manufacturer for this same reason. Hopefully this prevents more abuse in the future
They used to call this Hippie Crack and you would often see people filling balloons at Grateful Dead and Phish shows. That was usually pharmaceutical-grade nitrous though, not this whip it garbo...
Thats where I first tried it at age 14 😂 it was MAD trying to get at the guy selling balloons, nearly caused a crowd crush
Three for $20!!! Three for $20!!!! Psssssssssst psssssssssssst pssssssssssst Three for $20! Three for $20!! Pssssssst pssssssstt
always had signs reading NO TANKS but they were always there.
You do not call something "Galaxy Gas" and *not* expect rappers and teens to get fucked up off of it. That legit sounds like a Future mixtape from like 2013
I don't know. We have all had those shameful days where we ate a quarter million servings of whipped cream in one sitting. Who is to say that a canister with half a million servings is excessive?
People say "losing braincells" but call it what it is: BRAIN DAMAGE! This is giving people brain injuries!
This story is giving me Juul vibes lol.
My guess is they will try to scrub the galaxy under the rug and try to funnel products in smaller canisters through another company.
The funny thing is juul was never actually trying to appeal to kids. It was all the off brand knockoffs that were. Juul got punished, yet all the knockoffs are still doing business as usual 🤔
this whole time i thought galaxy gas was a modern name for weed
Just gas is. It's a type of terpene flavour profile that relates to strains that taste like gas, diesel, flavours that make you cough real bad.
I mean galatic gas is a strain.... initially I thought this was gonna be some sort of rosin compound.... who tf is rippin nangs these days...
I was wondering why these GIANT cans were being advertized for whipped cream. Like i looked at these freaking things and i was thinking there is no way any normie would need this out of the home.
Restaurants would, but the avrg joe not.
There's a case in my town where a teenager was found dead alone in his room with his head wrapped with a plastic bag connected to a gas canister, his room is filled with small canisters of various gasses. Please never let this trend to continue. When someone tried a weird gas, the concern is that they might have the idea to experiment on other gasses. This is where it will become even more fatal trends. Even before these as*holes promotes these products "legally", people could easily buy some of these gasses online in some regions.
As a Chef we need nitrous for anything whipped and even the festival kids know not to mess with the kitchen supply. I hate that my industry gets abused for this and I wish they would regulate the product even if it I have to start getting it from restaurant supply stores.
BIG SAME chef!! I know people that have bought more nitrous than most kitchens ive worked in
When I was a teen I thought I was slick (and got in trouble) for pouring some of my mom’s vanilla extract into my coke because I read it had alcohol in it.
Not good at all, but at least it’s intended to be ingested on some level internally and the alcohol is ethyl alcohol lol.
My main point is, this is a whole different level of brain damaging insanity. In college I saw people doing whippets and had enough sense to see that what it was doing to them was pretty scary.
I have seen people get high off of it in the kitchen at several places I worked, but I was a fry cook and grill man, so I never messed with it.
Preach, surely making it at least a tiny bit harder to get for y'all ain't gonna ruin ya and would go a long way in harm reduction.
And even people who abuse it and who are already addicted will always find a way. This trend of literal children watching a few rappers on tiktok do it, walk up to their local smoke shops and getting these vape flavored canisters is beyond ridiculous.
Doing a Kanye is crazy work💀
Anything that displaces oxygen out of you should automatically be a red flag, but that's just my 2 cents
Its basically the same way to get around the law as bath salts. Those research chemicals were created to be consumed by people to get high, but you cannot sell it as that so they sold it as bath salts.
Standard chargers for culinary use are 8g, and you typically need 2 of them for a 1L whipping siphon, IIRC. A 2KG canister is only 125 batches, and would indeed save a ton of money vs buying a ton of smaller canisters. The obvious issue is that you can't actually load standard culinary siphons with these balloon-filling canisters without a ton of extra equipment like regulators and adaptors, but I just wanted to note that when I make whipped cream, we go through cartridges like crazy, and about 8 years back, prices for cartridges doubled.
So what about the flavour, would it effect the whip cream?
@@OhTaKuSo yeah it would screw up anything you'd be making
I mean yeah I can see how a single "serving" as referenced in the video, is actually a tiny amount of actual cream.
I met one of the few recorded cases of a vitamin B deficiency on earth.
He had an extremely bad whippit habit that caused it.
Irony is, being aussie, had he eaten Vegemite once a day he could have avoided it.
Something tells me there's gonna be a 'sudden' influx of Vitamin B deficiencies.
I used to be a nitrous oxide auxiliary, when I assisted in chair side dentistry. The high is literally your brain dying. We ALWAYS administer nitrous with oxygen. Usually a 50/50 ratio. This keeps you in a twilight state without being oxygen deprived. Oxygen will also reverse the effects of nitrous immediately. Now imagine these people filling their lung space with nitrous. Where's the room for oxygen? That's why people are passing out. Your brain is oxygen deprived. Granted the nitrous escapes with every exhale. And the effects lessen as oxygen re-enters the body. But that could take too long and cause irreversible damage. Prolonged recreational use can cause tremors, spasms, memory loss, and a host of other neurological issues. The short yet dangerous recreational high just isn't worth it. Galaxy and fake culinary companies like them need to be held accountable. The litter from the cannisters should be alarm enough to do something. Lastly, folks are going to what they want. That said. Please don't use nitrous alone. Have a buddy. Especially if they don't use it. Pick up some cans of oxygen used for hiking. That oxygen could possibly reverse an overdose if administered quickly enough. Stay safe. 💚🫶🏽💚

Who starts these dangerous trends and WHY doesn't Tiktok shut down accounts that partake and hashtag them?
Easy. because
A) stopping them costs money
B) not stopping them gets views and makes money
C) they're not required to stop them by law.
Because TikTok is a Chinese psyop.
Lmao, you think they actually care? They only care when it hits the media
As if the CCP owned Tik Tok would stop anything damaging to Americans
Tik tok promotes degenerate behaviour to accounts in the US on purpose and way more educational stuff to their own people. It's all by design.
Galaxy gas is just what happens after the 3rd gas station burrito.
I remember kids doing whippets in highschool, I thought kids had moved on to the Tide pods these days.

Putting flavoring in the nitrous can't be good for your lungs either. I'm not for making it an illegal substance tho, drug wars don't work. That said, kids shouldn't be able to get their hands on it either, these people should be held accountable for that, no doubt
Yeah, those people on nitro hard look like excited fent addicts. The fent addicts are out of it, the nitro guys just spew vocalizations like “GLÆRrrrEAAAAARG!” while also being out of it. Huge potential for addiction. I feel bad for folks not realizing they’re starting an addiction
The most concerning part is really the size of the nitrous canisters that people are getting. I did nitrous back in high school over a decade a go, but back then you just got whip cream cans, let them melt, then inhale the nitrous. Unless you or a friend had a nitrous canister, basically a nitrous bong, then you could easily do whippit after whippit because you just add more chargers to the canister. With this galaxy gas stuff, it seems like you can just keep huffing on it without having to refill anything, which is where the true danger comes, since you can start inhaling more nitrous than you inhale oxygen. Also giving it the new nickname "Galaxy Gas" certainly has made it more trendy and popular among the youth. Teens always do dumb shit, social media is just showing us that stupid shit more often, but in this case social media is certainly pushing this drug into more popularity than I've ever seen in 26 years, it will probably be more common at house parties and stuff too
Lol... I have sold thousands of pounds of this stuff... as a mechanic... in a high performance shop... like 20 years ago. Nitrous or NOX. The thing is... there is an additive that will make you sick if ya try to use it for other purposes. I never had the urge to mess with stuff like this... its dumb. Stay safe... Blessings all!
N2O and NO2 aren't the same.
Well yeah, it has always needed to be food grade to inhale. When I was a kid in the 90s/00s, it was common to suck it out of the whip cream can and then get yelled at by your parents for making the whip cream flat. Thankfully, I think most people aren't dumb enough to try it with the kind of nitrous made for cars.
Im sure someone has 🤣@@MadameCirce
@@tvh024 The stuff they use in cars and in whipped cream is both N2O though, and even someone huffed out of his mind would see the difference. NO2 is a red/brown gas and also turns into nitric acid when it comes into contact with water so both huffing it and using it in your engine would not end well
I have read many stories of shady auto shops getting the pure N2O, and not adding the additive (I believe its SO2) to sell in bulk to substance abusers. They'd add the SO2 to batches sold to actual auto users, but would sell you just the N2O if you talked to them or something.
Auto grade N2O is very nasty shit bittergent or not. Even food grade is not meant for inhaling and the canisters are full of oils and other nasty shit. Only medical grade is the purest form that can be safely inhaled (under medical supervision ofc)
It is not just that nitrous oxide is dangerous as a drug. When the cilinders end up in the trash, they can explode in the garbage truck or the incinerator ovens. At best this causes damage to the equipment and leads to time loss, at worst people get seriously hurt.
There is no way that these canisters explode. The worst that could happen is a full canister that got punctured would spill out the gas which rapidly cools down while expanding and will freeze anything that is in close proximity. So someone might touch it accidentally and get frostbite on their hand.
That stuff that messes with your oxygen supply is NOT A JOKE! I didn't even think about this until now but years ago when I was probably around 14 I was at a family members school event night and me and another friend were walking around the school and they had helium balloons so me and my friend inhaled it to make our voices sound funny and I inhaled too much and passed out, fell face first into a locker and busted my chin open which required me to go to the hospital to get stitches. It's not fun and games, this is seriously harmful stuff and I wish that incident never happened since it probably killed a lot of my braincells.
Jesus Christ *THANK YOU COFFEZILLA FOR COVERING THIS, no one is calling out this crap for WHAT IT IS, PLEASE KEEP COVERING THIS FOR THE YOUTH, PARENTS CABT BE WITH THERE KIDS IN THE CLASSROOM, THIS SHIT NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN ASAP.*
I actually use nitrous oxide for whipped cream! A tiny container truly goes a long way. We have it on a weekly basis for pancakes. It's delicious when made with vanilla, sugar, or cinnamon.
I love that media sources think this is a new problem
It’s like someone saw 01-06 Steve-O and thought, that’s a good life choice.

As someone who watched people do whippets, I don't see the appeal. It literally turned one of my smartest friends into a drooling, falling out his seat and not being able to talk
Cause it feels good? lol duh
A lot of things feel good without causing brain damage. Why choose one that can cause lifelong injury or death?
@@watsonwrote that's very rare to happen when doing this
@@perc3136 if you need to kill your brain cells to have fun or feel good, you must be a very boring person
The 22k servings only makes sense if you are a restaurant or bakery because at that point you're probably going through a lot of whipped cream.
In medical applications, 30-70% nitrous is used along with the remainder being oxygen. That being said, this is in a MEDICAL APPLICATION with protocols in place if something goes wrong and it's well-known that overexposure can have lasting health effects too! What disturbs me the most is how people are so eager to post this up online and be like "YA DUDE" not realizing they could be one hit away from having half a day out with the undertaker.
I did whippets a few times back in highschool in 05. But this is a bit much with how they are peddling it and how big it's getting. We called it Hippy crack for a reason.
So now it's about to become an epidemic....Like crack back in the 80s-90s
Were yall listening to Phish or DMB while doing it lol. Every person i knew who did it was listening to that or grateful dead.
@nukfauxsho mostly punk rock and thrash metal. Being a dumbass. Lol
I can't do phish or GD lol
Grew up in northern Maine where PHIsH would hold big shows every year. Got introduced to duster. Tried it a couple times. During the second time my buddy exhaled and fell flat on his face and got a concussion. Never touched the shit again.
@@iVETAnsolini duster is not nitrous oxide.
Making it a TikTok trend is the best way to ensure that nobody will want to do it a year from now.
Doing whippets is lame
It's weird watching the internet discover "new" stuff that has existed for decades/centuries
It's not the internet, that's just kids, even in real life, everything they discover they think they are the first. Lol had a young family member tell about this amazing food no one had ever heard of called "Korean BBQ," which happens to be my favourite food and literally had for EVERY birthday. Yet this young family member thought no one had ever heard of it before.
Coffezilla is hip guys. He wears local band shirt
The void has come back to me 🙏
When I was young messing around. They had these pills they sold as "Plant Enhancement Caps" that you 'pushed into the soil next to the root' but in reality you just ate-em and tripppppedouthard.
If 22k servings wasnt a dead giveaway, it has a handle on it...
Man I really thought I was stupid in school, holy fuck does this make me feel completely normal yet really fucking depressed at the same time.
Some say they're including laughing gas free with every purchase of lunchables
It's the same story like "bath salts"" and "potpourri" that flooded head shops back in the early 2010s.
Ok, so one thing that I don't get is how their excuse of being used for cooking applies is for the flavored stuff. Why the hell would you want the nitrous to be flavored? Every time I've made whipped cream the flavor comes from the cream, not the nitrous. So why would you flavor it unless you were selling it with the intention of people doing "other stuff" with it. The boldness of these people.
From my understanding, the nitrous is used to impart the flavor into the cream.
Nitrous has a sweet taste. If you just taste the cream without whipping it up you'll notice that it won't taste sweet.
Its exactly for selling it to huff huff
It's been a menace in Europe for a long time. So many high profile football players have been suspended for inhaling nitrous.
As a former smoker of weed, this is the exact same trend as going to a glass shop and them saying "This is intended for herbal use only" loophole they used to sell them. Also the moment I saw Keem hitting this stuff on Lolcow Live, I knew exactly what it was. He wasn't making cream with the milk he was getting for sure.
Except nitrous oxide canisters are legitimately used for cooking.
It's not a new thing, that its resurfacing and became that huge is simply horrifying. The conditions aligned to creating a commercially available drug.
Damn, we were doing whippets WAY back in the day.
Why would they flavor it if it wasn't intended to be used?
Why tf isnt tiktok taking videos of illegal drug use down, like litteral videos promoting illegal drug use
Because TikTok is a Chinese propaganda platform designed to destroy the free western world.
Beacuse MONEY MONEY MONEY
Reminds me of when synthetic weed was sold in smoke shoppes as bath salts for awhile back about 10-15 years ago.
Inhalants are the MOST DANGEROUS class of drugs for first time users. Of those who died using inhalants, 50% were first time users. Don't mess with your ability to breathe.
Wondering when the "video head cleaner" (AKA poppers) will come back into style like this. I remember whippets and poppers being sold side by side in just about every "novelty store" out there.
they're still popular
Yeah, it's still a thing.
in my country there is a similar product going around that is called "Fast Gas" and u will find these empty "Fast Gas" bottles littered around public parks
It's been a serious problem in Europe for years
War on Drugs never worked anyway
@@КГБКолДжорджКостанца drugs clearly won.
@@irishbob26 and still will even if America decided to militarily get rid of drugs....it'll never work, same thing with guns
People have been huffing laughing gas for 250 years. This is not a new trend, just one that circles around. And branding chemicals for consumption as being for something else is probably also as old as food regulation. This is a very un-new news story.
I love going to the smoke shop seeing a whole ass display setup for galaxy gas 🤣🤣🤣
I hate when stuff like this happens purely because regulators will regulate and make difficult to find something with many useful purposes. Car tires, propulsion for tiny pop sticks, food preservation etc. Just annoying because so many things become "be a big company or be gone".
Galaxy gas sounds like the new dangerous drug in a brand new 80s action cop movie.
if the reporters don't know they are advertising, they should just quit.
Finally back in the void
It's crazy how popular this stuff has been becoming. I ended up abusing so much of it that I experienced nerve damage and I couldn't walk for several weeks. I have some videos on my channel talking about it.
Db I did this back in 2012. It literally zones you out. You do feel funny at the beginning but then you completely blank out then wake up laying on the floor with everyone looking at you waiting for you to come back from the high. It becomes addicting,meaning while you're doing it you feel like you have to do it as soon as the effect goes down. But if you stop for a few days you stop wanting to do it. Also it gives you a huge downer after a while with a bad after taste, not to mention that you can completely tell that it affects your brain.
One thing came up in my mind, will you ever cover OneUp face cream that was created by Caleb and Mutahar and then they deleted videos and covered it up ?
he probably won't, those two have mad influence on here
What was the deal with that? Did some googling and the only thing I could really find that might be controversial is it apparently claimed “blue light protection”, kinda like that product that Valkyrae got shit for peddling a while back. Doesn’t seem like it’s worth Coffe’s time to cover but maybe there’s more to it that I’m missing
@@hobojoe9717 i just remember one video of mutahars where he said it was one for all kinda thing but no outrageous claim that i recall. But then he never talked about it again
Oh i saw this. Gross. Almost as gross AS LOGAL PAUL'S NEW LUNCHLY LUNCHES!!!! IN COLLABORATIVE EFFORT WITH "THE" MRRRR BEAAAAAAAST.
My cousin got hooked on this like 20 years ago and eventually went to a rehab sober ranch type place. In home videos you can tell it caused some her brain damage. She isn't the same. Very scary that this is back and so popular.
My cousin passed away from this stuff a few years ago... the compressed gas is cold and froze his lungs and he suffocated. He was found 2 days later...😢
used to be the sign in the head shop warned you to call it a “tobacco water pipe” and not a bong. now they can post a similar sign that says “galaxy gas is definitely only for food don’t huff it”
This is what happens when you have prohibition... Just legalize weed...
No, I don't think everyone should smoke. Ideally, we should all limit our drug use. However, but many people will inevitably lean towards substance use, and this is what happens when you prohibit more reasonable drugs
Every month it seems to be a new trend to help natural selection.
As a chef, nitrious IS intended as a tool for making food. Obviously the people selling it in headshops are selling it for abusive purposes. But there are tons of legitimate uses for nitrious (a pastry shop, a coffee shop, etc.)
He never said that nitrous isn’t intended for use in making food, or that it doesn’t have other legit purposes. He’s saying that this specific product/company (and others like it) are not made for that purpose, even though they claim to be.
You didn't watch it did you?
Hope those cans have indefinite shelf-life cause any actual chef could just buy one of those and would use it for the rest of his life 😂
well, if they weren't flavored a chef could use it. The flavoring would ruin the meals.
not watched the video yet but i can already say there are 12 year olds addicted to this in my area
Calling it a "blueberry" coloured hand-held canister of proof enough that this is just the next vape product
