I want to show you my setup, and I would like some of your opinions.
What I have:
[1] Helium gas tank (the one used for party balloons), volume = 13,3 liters
[2] CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure ) mask + tube
[3] Plastic bag
[4] Sodium Nitrite NaNOâ‚‚ (CAS 7632-00-0)
When I read the first posts on this thread, I wasn't expecting I was going to need some kind of valve to regulate the flow of the gas (to certify the flow is 13 liters per minute) because
I have a picture on my pc with instruction on how to commit suicide using helium gas, and there is NO mention about the flow regulator.
I think the purpose of the regulator is to help you reach the right balance of gas going inside the bad:
[1] to little, the bag won't inflate enough and some of the outside air may get into the bag
[2] to much flow can brake the bag or make it scape from your head, not to mention emptying the cylinder before you die AFTER you pass out (you will still need to keep breathing the helium for a couple of minutes after you blackout)
BUT!
In my opinion, using one of those CPAP masks would substitute the need to have a bag to hold the gas, since all the gas you will now breathe are coming directly from the helium gas tank and staying INSIDE the mask.
My CPAP mask had two holes:
[1] One hole at its bottom, near the tube, where most of breath air exits, it is medium sized.
[2] Many tiny holes at the top, but those hole are as thin as a needle.
I am going to seal the hole at the bottom with a duct tape, leaving only the ones at the top of the mask free.
BUT, I will still use the plastic bag tough, to keep the gas coming out the mask around me.
The helium tank and the mask:
When you open the helium gas tank valve while using the CPAP mask:
[1] if you open the valve too litle, you can barely breathe
[2] if you open too much, you feel the mask pushing away from your face due the high pressure from the tank
I conclude the flow of the tank should be the in between those two condition.
I don't think I am going to need any flow regulator, I just have to open the valve just enough so I can breathe normally.
Just a reminder that I will still use a plastic bag, I won't let any helium gas scape, I will always be breathing helium.
I also have another trick up my sleeve, Sodium Nitrite (Yes, nitrite, not nitrate).
Now, here some little informations on my experience with SN:
I have been ingesting a very little amount to test the effects of SN in my body.
I was increasing the amount I ingested each day until I reached 5 grams, and that is where things got serious:
About ten minutes later I started to feel dizzy and losing some of my hearing, my vision got blurried...
I read people died after ingesting around 20grams, I will use a little cup with, at least, 50 grams before I start the preparation for the exit bag.
Do you have any advise or question for me? Can you tell me if there is something wrong with my method, I would appreciate ANY replies
