Many of you may have already heard about the suicide technique sweeping the country after it was imported from Japan. A suicidal person mixes two household items found at any drug store in a bucket and hydrogen sulfide is given off. Most often it is done inside a car. First responders could be overcome by the gas upon arrival. H2S is a respiratory hazard that can be fatal if inhaled at concentrations above 500ppm. Even at 100ppm it can cause respiratory difficulty. Follow this link to a Texas OEM warning that details a recent suicide.
