Carbon Monoxide poisoning is no joke, I nearly lost 2 friends to it. One of them was at imminent risk of death as the levels of gas in their body was so high.
In the early 1980's a volatile when drunk bloke (who was a spitting image of Midge Ure from Ultravox, just had to mention it) from my then local pub was found dead in front of his still on gas fire. He must've led down after a skinful and passed out, then died from carbon monoxide poisoning the inquest into his death recorded, but obviously in more legal speak terms. I should talk as I had a habit of doing the same, but thankfully my gas fire was safe, though I did sometimes wake up with first degree burns! :ohmy:
