DID you know that a glue-sniffing chokora is in a mortal danger of dying, not from a police bullet but from the sound of gun fire?
Chronic inhalation of volatile hydrocarbons such as glues, paint, solvents and gasoline sensitizes the heart to catecholamines ( chemical messengers involved in fight or flight) such as adrenaline.
Adrenaline is usually released in large amounts in response to stressful situations ( flight or fight situation) that then overwhelm the sensitized heart leading to ventricular fibrillation (uncontrollable racing heart) and finally cardiac arrest.
