A man who sucked down 2,000 to 4,000 grams of nitrous oxide per day is going after the distributors of the laughing gas after he allegedly suffered severe nerve damage and spinal degeneration, according to a new lawsuit. Austin Bacak claims he started using nitrous oxide gradually in 2024 after buying the product at his local smoke shop, where the product “invites recreational use as an inhalant,” his lawsuit says. “Nitrous Oxide at smoke shops have edgy names and bright colors that nod towards drug culture not the food industry,” the suit, obtained by the California Post, reads.
