Young man commits suicide with helium bag

From what I have read, committing suicide by helium inhalation is perfectly painless...no suffering. Supposedly, the sensation of suffocation that you might expect is missing, because you ARE breathing. It's just that you are breathing a gas that does not provide the oxygen your body needs. You just breathe in, breath out, breathe in, breath out -- and then lose consciousness and die.
