Le party poppers and asthma question

[Thorn]

(You guys know what party poppers are, right? Like; those little things that explode and release coloured streamers, all purty like?).

Well; I know obviously I should not give the ones which use gunpowder (or whatever it is- smells like gunpowder, anyway) to an asthmatic.

But does anyone know if the ones which use compressed air, instead of gunpowder, would be okay in this situation? Because they don't release smoke or anything, right? So would they be okay?

I wanted to see if anyone knew, cos I want to buy some for a birthdaything. If nobody's sure though, I might just get balloons or something instead. xD

Thanks in advance!

If they don't release smoke, they should be okay.

Thanks Killix! =D
I just wanted to make sure. Don't want to go around causing harm to people, aha.
If I do buy some; I'll test to make sure that they actually don't produce smoke. xD
Cos any excuse to play with coloured streamers is a good excuse.

Coming from someone who has asthma, compressed air should be fine. Actually, smoke in small amounts probably wouldn't do too much harm either, depending on how asthmatic the person in question is and how much smoke was released, but if there's going to be a lot of party poppers, probably better to play it safe.

I don't actually know exactly how asthmatic this person is. The only ones I could find had the smokestuff; so I just bought party candles and water bombs instead. I thought about those party-blower-things; but they can get kind of annoying! xD

But thanks, PFA! I guess it's better to be safe, than sorry and in a heap of trouble.
