Esra Haynes chroming death: Ally Langdon holds back tears on A Current Affair
The heartbroken parents of a 13-year-old girl who died after a chroming accident spoke on TV, bringing host Ally Langdon to tears.
The heartbroken parents of a 13-year-old girl who died after inhaling dangerous chemicals from a deodorant can are on a mission to make their daughter’s life count.
Esra Haynes, a Year 8 student at Lilydale High School in Melbourne’s outer east, went into cardiac arrest and sustained irreparable brain damage after taking part in increasingly popular trend called ‘chroming’ while at a friend’s sleepover on March 31, 2023.
Her parents Paul and Andrea never saw it coming.
“It was just the regular routine of going to hang out with her mates,” mum, Andrea, told A Current Affair.
“We always knew where she was and we knew who she was with. It wasn’t anything out of the ordinary,” Paul added.
“To get this phone call at that time of night, (it) was one of the calls no parent ever wants to have to receive and we unfortunately got that call: ‘Come and get your daughter.’
“We’ve got the pictures in our mind which will never be erased, you know, of what we were confronted with.”
Paramedics were working to revive Esra at the scene and told Andrea the teenager had been “chroming” – a dangerous and growing craze, particularly among teenagers, where chemicals in aerosol cans are inhaled for a quick high.
That high proved fatal for the “beautiful” and “cheeky” Esra, who was rushed to hospital in an unresponsive state and placed on life support.
But eight days later, doctors said “her brain was damaged beyond repair”, and the family decided to turn off the machines.

Meanwhile, 13-year-olds are considered mature enough to make decisions on all that trans crap.
RIP. Do bored American teens still huff paint? I’m guessing it’s way easier to get high other ways nowadays but who knows... “Chroming’ sounds like what the bad guys were doing in Fury Road.

“... inhaling dangerous chemicals from a deodorant can...”
HTH do you do that?
Esra Haynes, Esra Haynes, she won’t answer any more...
Inhalants are a cheap and dangerous "high". Ditto for alcohol ODs. My wife has a former co-worker whose 15 year old son is in a coma from alcohol OD. The prospects for recovery are slim to none. It's hard to watch parents hanging on to irrational expectations of a miraculous recovery.
Usually they spray the contents into a paper or plastic bag, then put it over their face and inhale.......................
Is that what’s called “huffing”?
I remember hearing about that more often, years ago. Kids doing it in stores, had medical emergencies.
Yes......................
