A little helium isn't harmful, but inhaling an entire balloon-full can block oxygen to your brain, which might cause you to pass out. There has been at least one death from breathing helium from a pressurized tank instead of a balloon, too.

Is too much helium bad?

Original answer: "voice go up high..... i think that is it..."People should not answer questions if they are too ignorant or bigoted to do so properly.Inhaling Helium is always a risk. When helium is inhaled, it takes up space in the lungs that air (nitrogen, oxygen, et cetera) should occupy. This will lead to suffocation if the helium is not quickly pumped from the lungs by breathing air for several minutes. Too much helium is bad for you, because not all air is removed from the lungs in one breath. Therefore, repeatedly breathing helium will make you short of breath, effectly suffocating you over time. This does not always result in death.
