Esra had been inhaling fumes from a deodorant can, causing her body to completely shut down. She was rushed to the hospital where she remained on life support for eight days.
Doctors ultimately determined her brain was “damaged beyond repair.” Haynes’ family decided to then turn off life support.
Esra was participating in a deadly Tiktok challenge known as “chroming.” Two 16-year-old boys previously died from participating in the trend in 2019. according to The Straits Times.
Chroming involves inhaling toxic chemicals through the nose or mouth in order to get a temporary high. According to the National Post, these substances can be found in several common household items including aerosol cans, metallic paints, hairspray, deodorants, glue, cleaning products, and more.
Fox News says this appears to be an evolution of a decades-old trend of huffing or sniffing.
Paul Haynes told the Healrd Sun he wanted aerosol manufacturers to action alter their products’ formulas, calling it “a pistol sitting on a shelf.”***

When I was growing up, one of the fads was to sniff model airplane glue. I built many airplanes but was never compelled to intentionally sniff glue.
Of course. It can’t be because the parents are too busy to watch what their kids are doing.
I guess we’ll just have to ban all these dangerous aerosol products then.
So the father is blaming a deodorant aerosol cans. But not Tik Tok?
Riigghht.
40 years ago it was Pam cooking spray
The rona stops this.
Father needs to look in the mirror.
That’s ok since where MY KIDS go to school is TOTALLY AGAINST sniffing dangerous chemicals, so nothing for me to worry about.
By the way, how’s the Sight Words going?
Deodorant has been manufactured in solid form forever
Why in God’s name would you buy any teen Agee a spray can of anything in this day and age. I knew two boys who died as teens back in the sixties trying to get high that way
So I had to look elsewhere in order to covert “Teen girl” into “13 year old girl”. I just hate modern journalism.
Big difference between 13 and 19.
And a little before that, it was Right Guard Deoderant.
Darwin
She should have used Odorono.
Tik Tok challenges kill more kids than all the “assault rifles” on the planet.
calling it “a pistol sitting on a shelf.”***
= = =
Yep, those cans get up and spray her in the middle of the night.
Like guns do.
I remember Right Guard as making a serviceable flame thrower. Never occurred to me or my buddies to inhale it.
Sharpies.
We made them out of cans of WD-40 to kill the flies in our dorm room. There was no inhaling.
Huffin’ glue & paint has been arounnd for at least 50 years.
Of course, back than there was no internet/social media to make it seem fun and attractive. We could see what mental zombies the huffers turned into.
Tiktok is like a magnet to stupid people.
