    Helium isn’t flammable at all. It’s a noble gas, which are notorious for their lack of reactivity.

    But I agree, it’s a dumb thing.

      Aren’t we going through a helium shortage?

      Also, to get helium, you get it from natural gas. Seems like a bad choice when you’re trying to move away from fossil fuels.

      Just like human nobles/rich and/or powerful people in general 😉
