I'm not sure what the propellant was then. Freon shouldn't have done it
with one lousy can. I did give mouth-to-mouth once to a compounder who
passed out on top of a open Freon-11 tank full of lecithin. I think he
was trying to get high and passed out. I worked on his dead ass until
real medics got there. He ended up OK. I'd heard a death-rattle for the
only time in my life.

And remember the same with airplane/model glue...???

I used a bunch of that stuff in the Fifties. I glued a lot of model
airplanes together. Fortunately, the effects of glue-sniffing were not
known then, and I missed the chance to ruin my life.
Sometimes, what you don't know can't hurt you.

I did lots of AMT and Revell car model kits, and my first airplane model
kit was a Soviet Tupolev TU - 104 jetliner - exotic...!!!
Our local Ford dealer also gave us kids early 60's models of Falcons, T
- Birds, Galaxies... also copies of the "Ford Times"...
And, remember making stuff outta popsicle sticks...???
And I remember that Testor's airplane glue smell like yesterday...!!!
