Cyanide is usually found in compounds, such as potassium cyanide, hydrogen cyanide, and sodium cyanide.
If one eats large amounts of cyanide, as it shows itself in several plants such as the cassava root, show signs of deep breathing, passing out, and breathing shortly. They also may have difficult walking, dim vision, and weakness especially in fingers and toes.
Suprizingly, many people willfully and purposfully breathe in cyanide every day. That's right folks, it's in cigarettes.
Ew.
High levels of cyanide will cause brain and heart damage, and ultimately will cause anyone breathing it in to fall into a coma, and possibly die.
