This may sound like a stupid question, but I was tailgating at a baseball game last night and one of my friends gave me a balloon and told me to quickly inhale and exhale into it. I thought I would just get that high pitched voice you get from inhaling helium from a balloon (which I've never done before), but that didn't happen. I just got really lightheaded and dizzy. Later on my other friend said it was probably nitrous or something, or whatever they put it balloon tanks (they had one at the game). Now I'm freaking out and scared that I caused brain damage or something. I know that it was a stupid thing to do. Do you know anything about this "getting high of balloon" thing? What was probably in the balloon? And what damage did I cause? Thanks.
