Somehow the thought of inhaling something called sulfur hexafluride into my lungs / blood stream seems really unpleasent.

Of course, the ACTUAL!!! reason it makes his voice lower is because it has Sulfur which is the chemical of the devil... and "hexa" meaning six means the chemical is mystically structured with the number of the beast.

Which is why his voice sounds like a demon...

He's actually inhaling devil farts.

I'm going to assume that his T-shirt is a Radiohead reference as that line is directly from the song Bodysnatchers. And because I love Radiohead.

Readi-Whip gas has a similar (but less dramatic) effect.

(btw: that is called Nitrous Oxide, aka 'laughing gassss')

Yeah but dude, when you inhale ready whip, you only sound like that to yourself.
