Ok, so Im 13 and me and my sis got ballons at my cousins graduation and we untied the ballons and strted swallowing the helium so that our voices got all squeaky. It was really funny! But then my great-grandma (97) started yelling at us about how unhealthy that was, and we got in trouble. So im just wondering is that really unhealthy or was she just being fussy? (link)

I think it is unhealthy because it displaces oxygen. It causes headaches and brain cells to die. Think about, nothing in nature sucks up pure helium. Our bodies are designed for the earth,s atmosphere in its balanced gaseous concentrations.
