LUTZ, Fla. - Two college students were found dead inside a large, deflated helium balloon after apparently pulling it down and crawling inside it, officials said.
The deaths of Jason Ackerman and Sara Rydman, both 21, appear to be accidental, Hillsborough County Sheriff's Maj. Bob Schrader said.
Their bodies were found Saturday partially inside a deflated helium balloon at the entrance of a condominium complex a few miles north of Tampa. The 8-foot-diameter balloon was used to advertise the complex.
"Helium" 
I bet they deflated it, got a nitrous tank and inflated the balloon with nitrous then got inside.
Or even if it was helium, I bet they died laughing because their voices sounded really funny.
And on a side note...an 8 foot balloon!? I want one!

I'm surprised that 2 people could pull down an 8 foot diameter balloon and hold it steady enough to crawl in.
BTW, how the hell to you get inside a balloon without it deflating?
That'd be an awful death, suffocate while sounding retarded.
