Inhaling toxic chemicals can be dangerous
This trend involves inhaling toxic chemicals such as paint, solvents, aerosol cans, cleaning products or gasoline to get a short-term “high”. This can cause problems such as slurred speech, dizziness, hallucinations, nausea and disorientation, but it can also lead to a heart attack or suffocation.
Earlier this year, Tommy-Lee Gracie Billington, 11, from Lancashire, died of a suspected heart attack after she and her friends attempted to do Craze at a sleepover. In 2023, Esra Haynes from Melbourne, Australia, also died in similar circumstances after sniffing deodorant at a sleepover, the Mirror reported.
Another girl, Tegan Solomon, 12, from Kent, was rushed to hospital with heart palpitations and vomited for days after trying the trend at a sleepover. Recalling the moment, Kola said she heard her son fall. “I had just breastfed my baby and was going to sleep when I heard a really loud bang. I thought one of the kids had done something.”
