inhaling nitrous oxide (laughing gas) on intensive care monitoring

[WantOxide]

fake. where's the laugh?

[ventilator98]

I have my own HP viridia with ECg, RESP, SpO2, and am trying to get NBP, and ETco2, as well as TEMP monitoring. You know, I LOOOOOOOOVE desatting. I can desat as low as 19 and faint. I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE DOING IT, but its DANGEROUS.

[chrismurray563]

Do you like inducing hypoxia? I mean I know you are trying to show us somthing but if you keep doing this to your self respitory arrest is very near. Not to mention all the arrythimia's your heart is having, im pretty sure you don't have epi in case of v fib or adenosine for SVT heck no one is there to administer it so i mean its cool and all but be carful

[iamgodlike91]

this is what happen when a NOS is leaking in your car

[andie361]

I've been watching a bunch of your videos because I have real heart rhythm issues, and I'm sorry, but the only thing I can think to say is you are an idiot, and I sincerely hope you don't take things too far one day.

[xxMuS1C4L1F3xx]

1:03 fart

[mihaigoste]

@xxMuS1C4L1F3xx U have right :))

[nikalik0]

you aren't even inhaling nitrous any more after the first few inhales. That's why shit started happening

[osavemejeebus]

You'd do well to learn the value of "double-blind", "cross-over", "placebo effect" and "anecdotal". Well, at least this video is packed with melodrama.

[ttrottman]

So basically you are showing us how to suffocate ourselves? I wonder how many brain cells that killed? Enough to put it on the internet.

[spyrosasavr]

maby u can breath carbon dioxide i think its the stuff u breath out after inhaling if it isnt then can u do inhaleing and exhaling into a balloon if u dont want to u dont have to i just LOVE u vids so let me now what u think ♥

[neatofrito1618]

Next time make a video an actual nitrous video instead of a co2 video. Holy acidosis badman.

[xXGuitarMuffinsXx]

And this my friends, proves why you need oxygen :D lol.

[Kidsm0oth]

People Nozzz out at every party and no one ever dies doing this so people need to relax And Nozzzzz outtt

[kennethsantanaguitar]

Were you alone when you tried this? Even if you have done it before, this was pretty foolish to try.

[WRF713]

This isn't the result of nitrous inhalation, it's the result of you breathing tons of carbon dioxide for 3 minutes.

[elitet0kr]

This is intense. Great video.

[1337Tipton]

"Just forget the alarm"

[Emericanization]

Were you nervous at 1:03? Hahaha

[blueibiza20vt]

This is one of the most interesting things someone uploaded! I love your experiments on yourself

Keep in mind that the pulse oxymeter on your finger has probably 15-30 second delay, (depend on circulation speed and heart rate ??) so I guess that when it showed 56% it was actually much lower already, probably very close to 40% which is a sure blackout.

check out another interesting video about a pig connected to many probes having VF cardiac arrest: search for "resQpod pig"

[bionerd23]

@blueibiza20vt

wow, that was a pretty awesome video! thanks for the tip!

i just hope they euthanized the poor pig afterwards, nevertheless.

i also wish it was legal for humans to volunteer for experiments more often, without the strict focus on so-called "ethics". pigs feel as much pain and fear as humans do, so i dont see a difference between human and pig experiments. human experiments are most reliable for human research, though.

[kahisawheel]

haha "here you can see my heart rate dropping as my body prepares to die. just kidding" I about died laughing at that part

[BeyondSight]

I find your videos fascinating and I personally appreciate your skills.

As for various characters suggesting that you are faking or lying... ridiculous.

[bionerd23]

@operafan31

on ebay; it's a hellige smu 611. :)

[CarMoves]

It's not the NO that's the issue, it's you depriving yourself of oxygen.

You don't need a anesthetist for NO.

[wetterfreschel]

Hehe, nix los auf der Intensiv, da schnüffelt man eben ein bisschen am N2O... Sind aber ziemlich viele VES, die da zwischendurch auftauchen.

[bionerd23]

@wetterfreschel

lol, da waer man wahrscheinlich ziemlich schnell gefeuert, wenn man das da machen wuerde. ;)

viele VES? naja, viel ist relativ - frueher hatte ich viel mehr VES -> viel mehr stress, siehe auch aeltere videos...

[DEVIL555666]

1:03 was that a fart? xD

[virtualetude]

thats dangerous! now what if you went into vtach or something...j/k

[xXGuitarMuffinsXx]

of course you'll die if you don't breathe.. its common sense..

[cem719]

light it wid fire ull increase ur hp by 300 horse power

[lisacd20]

probably a painless way to die lets just admit it. should be done to termanly ill patients if they can agree.

[d2001griffiths]

@lisacd20

Fuck the whole do no harm doctor assited suicied thing. It should be legle. It should be up to the pationt if they want to die. Some day congres wiull see that and change the laws surounding this subject.

[BeyondEvil308]

What the hell was the point of this video...is it to try and scare people into not doing this? People stupid enough to do this deserve to die. People stupid enough to do any drug deserves to die. The world is full of worthless dope heads...we can stand to loose a few more. Kids...Do try this at home...please

[silentbob140]

@BeyondEvil308 i have done nitrous..its not that bad....i dont do drugs...drugs are bad..unless you count lsd as a drug...then i do 1 drug..other than that i smoke pot and pop shrooms

[d2001griffiths]

@silentbob140 Are you for real? Drugs are bad? You have done more then I have, A lott more.

[INoIFearIGaming]

@BeyondEvil308 Drugs are a way for people to experience every aspect of their body and mostly their mind. I used to think drugs were bad (and some are) but there are things out there that just enhance life and allow you to experience a feeling you would never otherwise experience. You only live once, might as well experience everything you can while you can.

[0Winley]

I can imagine the alarm on the monitor sounded really interesting during the nitrous hit.

[twilightfanedward199]

loser you just set off all the alarms try to hold your breath and get your heart rate down

[soverein1]

are you trying to be a nurse or something?

[soverein1]

crapp and fake!!!! very diapointing video!! i thought it was going to be real and a good one!!!! nitros oxide cannot and will not kill some one!!! whoever made this video is an idiot:(

[bionerd23]

you have no clue, it seems. :)

it's not the nitrous oxide that kills, it's the lack of oxygen that does. the body needs a supply of oxygen - O2 molecules - to be able to continue functioning. if you inhale a gas with no free oxygen - no matter if that's helium, nitrous oxide, or carbon dioxide - it will inevitably kill you, full stop.

[soverein1]

you really think you no it all:/ sad :( man, really, do you think im a reetard??? of course i know that you die from lack of oxygen if it isnt added to the no2!!! i will ask you a question:) when you are dieing from lack of o2! what actualy kills you??

[PsychoticBovine]

@soverein1 I bet she knows how to spell "know" and you do sound like a "retard". 'tis sad, since English is probably not her first language, but she grasps it much better than you do.

I only speak two languages: english and bad english.

[wsman18]

@bionerd23 I couldn't have said it better myself. Nitrous itself doesn't change the heart rate like that, its the oxygen and carbondioxide levels. However many nitrous users use nitrous exactly how she just did because they are ignorant.

[INoIFearIGaming]

@wsman18 Thank you! I've always inhaled N2O just once from the balloon and then hold your breath for like 10-15 seconds and breath out and I've always told people to stop breathing in and out of the balloon like this but most people keep telling me I'm wrong. No, theyre wrong. You exhale CO2, so when she was constantly inhaling and exhaling in the balloon, she kept exhaling CO2 into the balloon and then re-inhaling it. THAT'S the problem with this. N2O is simply Nitrogen and Oxygen.

[Serpico261]

@bionerd23 your ecg shows german text

ablenkgeschwindigkeit, AT=atemfrequenz

do you spek german?

[bionerd23]

@Serpico261

yes, i do.

[Comedian]

@bionerd23 what he said

[d2001griffiths]

@soverein1

You are a fucking dumbass. It will kill you if unchecked. The ratio is 70/30 N2o to O2. Without the O2 you will die from the lack of oxigen. It has been several years since my certifacation but I stil know the basics.

[soverein1]

@d2001griffiths what ever old men!!! does it look like i care what you say you low life waste of space!!!! shut your mouth!!!!!!!!!!!

[d2001griffiths]

@soverein1

I think you ment old man. Any way I am about a year older then you. I hapen to know what I am talking about. Why don't you get a tank of nitrous oxide with a mask that will strap to your face and see what hapens.

[d2001griffiths]

@soverein1

Strap a mask over your face and crank the nitrous oxide on full and see what hapens. For a better afect make shore you are by your self so that way when you pass out no one will be their to take the mask off. Then you can suficate and die.

Fucking dumb ass. Tell me to shut my mouth again and I wil break your fucking neck. Check out my profile. Look at what I use to do for work.

[soverein1]

sorry mate!!!! i have had a really bad/busy week!!!!! sorry!!!!! what came over me????? i dont even know that!!!!! that was terrible telling you too shut your mouth and im sorry!!!!! but dont think you didnt have the only groosom job arround! mine is sort of like yours in a way or two!!! but i dont carry M16 or a M2 Browning!!!!! what happened to make you retier???? IED injury???? if you dont mind me asking!!!!! have a great day!!

[soverein1]

@d2001griffiths are you going to reply or what?????? at least accept my appologie!!!!!

[dtopols]

what is AF? Your AF was around 20 in the beginning before you breathed in N20 and then it was around 10 after your heartbeat and Oxygen level stabilized, what do that mean?

[bionerd23]

AF means ATEMFREQUENZ, that is german for "respiratory frequency"... it's a german intensive care monitor. ;)

[slowshow111]

omg! the level of pvc was fricken high!!!

[MrEnvey]

at 1:04 HE FARTS HAHAHA

[redbaron4jesus]

Interesting video.  Any idea how low one's oxygen level can become desaturated before it becomes dangerous? Can PVC's be dangerous?

[bionerd23]

i think the time matters more than the actual oxygen level... so 40% vs. 50% doesnt make as much of a difference as 1 minute vs. 2 minutes, as brain cells quickly die when deprived of oxygen for too long.

PVCs by themselves are not dangerous; that depends on the cause, though. if your thyroid function is normal, your heart is healthy, etc., they're nothing to worry about. however, PVCs can be signs for e.g. an underlying heart disease, too, so one should check with a doctor.

[bionerd23]

oh, so it's fun to do?

then it will be illegal very soon, be careful!

[bionerd23]

oh dear, lol. no wonder, considering it's a stimulant - be careful, especially with your blood pressure. :)

i live in germany, by the way, so i'm afraid i wont be able to hook you up to my machine.

[shroomwave]

holy Shit bio your fucking awsome I totally a fan loved what you did with the Ritalin video and the concentration test Hopfully I can get to university one day and do the same shit as you. Ever thought about salvia.

[bionerd23]

thanks! =)

you can do the "same shit as me" without going to university, though - i am not studying this, either - it's all a mere hobby. ;)

salvia? as in salvia divinorum? that really doesnt sound like my thing from what i heard about it... i think it sounds pretty scary. o_O

[PaulGaijin]

Really cool watching how your body responded to the lack of oxygen... great vid!

Also I agree, people should have easily realized that you edited your voice in afterwards... silly people. :)

[weirdstuffanimation6]

where is it possible to buy an intensive care unit

[bionerd23]

i got mine on ebay.

[undeadsos5]

interesting video but....(no offense) what is the point?

[bionerd23]

what's the point in going to a cinema? having fun, i suppose... just, this is my way of having fun. i enjoy it... pure and simple. and as other people seem to enjoy the video, too, i put it on the internet. :P

[undeadsos5]

i see so wht does it feel like when u take laughing gas? :P

[bionerd23]

it makes you fade into a dreamland, cause amnesia, vivid hallucinations, a feeling of absolute happiness and comfort ("like in heaven").

[undeadsos5]

hehe nice

[MitchGallina]

:D yay!

[MitchGallina]

I LOVE all your videos D: Especially the mercury ones xD I've been studying how to read an ECG for a tiny while now, so I'm going to take a few wild guesses :3 correct me if I'm wrong D: 0:00 -> normal sinus rhythm 0:21 -> uni focal PVC ? 0:39 -> sinus tachycardia? 0:52 -> no idea D: (possibly couplet PVC with AV block) 1:08 -> sinus tachycardia D: 2:33 -> multi focal PVC with s/w depression 2:51 -> normal sinus rhythm 2:56 -> multi focal PVC 3:00 -> another '' '' 3:33 -> sinus exit block

[bionerd23]

0:00 -> yep

0:21 -> yes, LVOT PVC

0:39 -> yes

0:52 -> simply a monotop PVC couplet

1:08 -> yes

2:33 -> just a monotop PVC on an unsteady zero baseline (caused by breathing)

2:51 -> technically still sinus tachy, but yeah.

2:56 / 3:00 -> hmm, i think they're just monotop LVOT PVCs again

[bionerd23]

3:33 -> didnt hear that term yet, but yeah - the sinus impulse hit a refractory myocardium due to the excitation from the extrasystole / PVC; the beat is thus "skipped" and only the next sinus impulse is transmitted into a "normal beat".

overall: VERY well done! =)

[ancxxxsold13r]

Good vid....but at 1:10 it seemed like you were talking and inhaling at the same time?

[bionerd23]

okay, here's how it works: i record the video with my camera. i put the video on my computer. i load it into windows movie maker. i then plug in a microphone. i then choose "add spoken commentary". the movie runs on my screen, and i talk into the microphone, adding spoken annotations to the movie. i then save the whole thing and upload it to youtube.

man, i think it was so obvious that i did the speaking LATER - when editing the video - that i dont have to mention it. obviously i am wrong.

[ancxxxsold13r]

Oh ok thanks for explaining...i just was wondering why.

[VAdirtyS]

I'm just assuming that you have some sort of educational background in the medical field?

[bionerd23]

nope. i'm just self-educated. ;-)

[bionerd23]

your such an idiot because of course i cannot talk when i am breathing from a balloon, so i did the talking later. you know, using a microphone while having the movie in the editor. probably too hard for you to understand how this works, but it does! :P

jeez, all those people with an IQ near their body temperature in degrees celsius are getting a bit on my nerves. ^_^

[goonage]

This is a really hard video to watch! Why would you do this?! I hope there was someone there with you?

[bionerd23]

no, there wasnt anybody with me. i usually do all my experiments alone. :P

dont worry, i know what i am doing, though... this wasnt really that dangerous.

[Txdave01]

SO FAKE... Notice that she is not show or proving that she is breathing...

[bionerd23]

lol, that's the AF on the monitor; respiratory frequency (AF is for atemfrequenz, it's german). also, you can see the pulse on the SpO2 (pulse oximeter) reading. a pulse is generated by a beating heart, in case you didnt know. so simply pulling the sensor off gives an error, not a desat.

that pretty much proves that this machine is hooked up to a human (my) body... but only if you have knowledge and understanding about medical equipment, which YOU do not seem to have. ;-)

[bionerd23]

no, as that would be WRONG.

it is actually N2O, dinitrogen-monoxide, so two nitrogen atoms with one oxygen atom forming a molecule. yours would be nitrogendioxide, which is NOT laughing gas.

[Cortex20006]

Whoa this one Scieds Me!

1:10 to 3:13

That's really Sciieds me!

[mkrubsack]

Amazing video. One of your best.

[bionerd23]

thanks... people always like to see other people on drugs, eh? =)

[hcarducci]

man... this is dangerous.

[Flapjackbatter]

Do you have this medical equipment in your home ?

[bionerd23]

yep.

[TheCynicalAtheist]

Haha, amazing video. loved it.

I have heard of people using the propellant in squirty cream( N20 ) to get a cheap high.

Wasnt it used as a dissociative anathestic like ketamine though? especially in dentistry.

Not sure if it has been phased out for medical uses nowadays, unsure about veterinary use.

[TheCynicalAtheist]

Just been looking up N20 in some of my pharmacology/chem books but none of them explain exactly how it works and i cant find any explanation as to if its the N20 + de-sat causing the blackout, if its just the N20 or if its just the de-sat.

As for its use, It says its still in use for dentistry and for labour. The books are kind of out of date though.

Maybe its just a british thing, i have not heard of anybody being given gas at the dentists for over a decade.

[bionerd23]

well, all i know is that i used to get it at the dentist about eight years ago still, but also i know that it is nowadays forbidden to use by a dentist and is only rarely used in hospital environments, due to severe incidents and side-effects that occured.

[bionerd23]

*the above goes for GERMAN laws; it seems to be still widely used e.g. in the USA...

[TheCynicalAtheist]

Yeah thats pretty much how it is over here in the UK, at least as far as i know.

Unsure about its use in hospitals though as thats not an environment i am around often, last time i was in the hospital as a patient was probably ten years ago, and about 5 years ago as a visitor. lol.

[bionerd23]

well, i never had any at the hospital myself either... but i read / heard about it, anyway. =)

[enotdetcelfer]

HAHA Awesome! Nice vid.

[nervousneuron]

Nice video :)

I can just see it: "I'm dying, hahahahaha"

[JaksProductions]

;D ur crazy, or at least the machines loud alarm makes me say that... :)

[ethanhines]

I just love your vids....extermly interesting. I would have pased out by 1:14 just from hyperventalation

[bionerd23]

thanks... but do you really think so / have you tried? i find it almost impossible to pass out on anything (which is a good thing!)... it's not all THAT easy to pass out, it seems. feel dizzy, yes - but pass out for real, no.

[ethanhines]

I have postural hypotension (I see stars if I get up too quickly) and I've come pretry close to syncope (passing out).

[chao129]

Looks like you had fun.

[JFischer91]

Very cool, but one should be careful with that, of course you could watch the oxygen saturation, but other people who do the same might not realize the low levels of oxygen saturation and die by asphyxia. Anyway great video, quite interesting that you couldn't remember anything when the oxygen saturation was at it's lowest, probably a warning sign!

[bionerd23]

yeah, that's why i stated that both in the video as well as the video's description: do not try at home!

i couldnt really watch my sats anymore at some point btw. because i was too high... ^_^

hard to tell if the amnesia is solely caused by oxygen deprivation, or solely by the nitrous oxide high, OR if it was a combination of both...

i am not able to verify that, as i cannot hold my breath or breathe air from a balloon for that long. :/

[blizzard242]

the N2O was contained in several balloons which limited the total amount of N2O available. The real danger come when you are breathing directly from a tank. The N2O is heavy than the air and will displace it. If you are in a small enclosed room it could displace enough air in the room then cause asphyxiation. You could have the same approximate effect from CO2, but it would have not been so fun. CO (carbon-monoxide) does the same thing also but renders red blood cells useless.

[bionerd23]

yeah, one balloon only contains 8g of N2O... and i think its much easier to desat on N2O than on CO2, because N2O also has anesthetic properties, while you'd feel the need for oxygen much sooner when not high / breathing CO2. i'm gonna try it with He at some point (when i can get a hold of some again); He is lighter than air AND doesnt make you high, thus, it'd be a good comparison.

[alin0steglinski0]

O_O be careful. damn thats a desat!

[bionerd23]

haha yeah, ftw.!

i wonder if i sorta passed out at the point or something... but then again, i kept breathing into the balloon? damn, i cant remember anything from when i was at 56 percent. i should do it again, recording myself with the webcam and the ecg with the compact cam! =D

...but im not posting that on youtube, lol.

[alin0steglinski0]

lol

i wonder who will be allowed to watch it

[bionerd23]

MAYBE me, but i'm not 100% sure about that, even. :D

[TheCynicalAtheist]

Do it for science! Just be careful!

[afxgrin]

hahaha

[sciencoking]

o.O

btw:

N2O killt das Vitamin B12 in deinem Körper... dagegen hilft: Fleisch :-)

[bionerd23]

yup, das habe ich auch schon gehoert - aber danke fuer den tipp! vitamin B hab ich als tabletten da... und wenn die packung N2O dann leer ist, dann kauf ik mir n leckeres stueck kuh. ^_^
