This is pretty morbid, but it's kind of a fascinating read. My stomach is still clenched in a tight little ball.

You know, I've read about deaths (British Literature), had to go to two funerals this month, and then read this and death really scares me.

All of a sudden I'm starting to wonder if you can die from nitrous oxide. O.o

I remember trying to figure out a good description of quite the opposite; the absolute feeling of nothingness during death, then the sudden and intense re-introduction of the senses when one's returned to life. Ah, weekend sessions of D&D...

All of a sudden I'm starting to wonder if you can die from nitrous oxide.

Oh yes, inhaled in too large quantities will mean your body cannot absorb enough O2 therefore causing death.

I think I've been in the business of death for too long when I can read this article while eating a bag of chips and not bat an eye.
