evaporate, they can freeze or frostbite tissue very rapidly. When these gases 
are breathed, the lungs can be seriously damaged. If sufficient quantities are taken into the lungs, death can result. If you believe you have exposed your lungs to
released refrigerant, seek immediate medical assistance.
