you can put a bucket over your head and pipe helium into it and that will work the same. this is a waste of money. its like insult to injury

If you do it badly, you might end up with brain damage and not die at all.

The whole point of such devices is to make sure it's done properly.

You also need to stabilize your head and the while body so that you do not leave the bucket for a longer time (to ensure death).

I assume that helium would not have the alert effect CO2 has - similarly to nitrogen which is probably too Henry to just it with a bucket as you describe.
