Pure hydrogen gas contains no oxygen so asphyxia is a possibility (causing dizziness possibly leading to unconsciousness and ultimately death due to insufficient oxygen reaching the brain). Hydrogen forms explosive mixtures with air or oxygen, so the possibility of ignition makes inhaling hydrogen very hazardous (would you want your lungs to look like an exploding hydrogen balloon?). Industrial hydrogen may be contaminated with other gases depending on its source and some of these could be harmful (carbon monoxide for example).
A mixture of hydrogen and oxygen called hydreliox is used in very deep diving (500-700m) to avoid nitrogen narcosis (the dissolution of nitrogen in blood due to high pressure). Some mixtures also contain helium. I believe the mixture must be handled with extreme care since it is explosive.

How are people made of gas?
The human body contains many chemical elements, including hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, which in their pure form are gases (at normal temperature and pressure). However, these elements are present in the human body in the form of compounds which are either solid or liquid; no part of the human body is actually made of gas.
What is the effect of freno gas for human body?
The effect of freon gas on the human is depend on how much he inhaled or how long he/she exposed on the gas. If you inhaled a large amount of freon gas for a short period of time, it will surely affects your nervous system. It will start on getting dizzy up to the irregular heart beats.
