If you're lucky you pass out. If you're not lucky, you damage your lungs, have a stroke or simply die.

Helium isn't a danger by itself, it won't kill brain cells or poison you. However, when you breath helium, you don't get any oxygen, and after a few minutes of breathing pure helium, you'll die. It's the same as breathing water(except the helium comes out easier). There's really no precaution you can take, just don't breath helium for longer than 10-20 seconds, and wait about 10 minutes before you do it again. Don't breath directly from the cylinder, and stop if you start to feel dizzy.
