Plot[]

Jimmy, a hazardous material removal worker hates his job, but enjoys getting high off nitrous oxide (laughing gas). Jimmy experiments with a gas mask, hooking it up to a tank of nitrous oxide and pumping it full of the stuff. Wanting to take his high to the next level, he dons his Hazmat suit and connects it to the nitrous oxide tank which fills up automatically. After a few minutes of breathing in nothing but laughing gas, he suffocates and dies.

  • This death is slightly similar to Funny Boned, but the death causes are different. In Funny Boned, however, Chuck died by a heart attack while in this case Jimmy died by suffocation. Of course, both victims died while laughing.
  • This takes place a day before Ass Phyxiated at the same location.

Goofs[]

  • Errors in geography: In the German dub of the series, it said that this death took place in Omaha, Nevada, despite Omaha being actually in Nebraska. This mistake happens again in Fat Man In A Little Swing.
