Footballer Raheem Sterling has been filmed apparently inhaling nitrous oxide - also known as 'hippy crack'The video shows him smiling and breathing in gas from a balloon before apparently passing out. The anti- drugs organisation's spokesman, Stephen Ream, told Mail. Online: 'It's very disappointing from our point of view.

He is a big role model and we hate to see this kind of stuff from someone of his status.'Players in similar situations in the past have come out and apologised and we hope he does the same.'Nitrous Oxide is not the most dangerous drug out there but there are deaths attached to it. There are risks and we would urge anyone tempted to take it not to do so.'Sterling's boyhood coach, Paul Lawrence, told the Evening Standard: 'He has got to be a lot more careful with what he is doing out in public.. Maybe he has got to sit down and think he is a role model and in the public eye.' The video emerged just days after the England regular, 2. In footage obtained by The Sun, Sterling is seen sucking on an orange balloon then laughing and giggling.

When the camera pans back to him, he is either unconscious or has fallen asleep. It is claimed that the video was taken at his home in Southport. Sterling is not the first player to have been accused of using the drug. Tottenham's Kyle Walker and West Bromwich Albion's Saido Berahino have also appeared inhaling gas from balloons.

Both later apologised for their actions and discouraged fans from using the drug. Drugs experts have warned revellers against inhaling nitrous oxide from balloons because it starves the brain of oxygen. Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has issued a warning to the forward, who scored in Liverpool's 2- 0 win over Newcastle last night. It comes amid rumours the star is unsettled at Liverpool and recently turned down a £1. Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers (right) has said he'll talk to the star. Rodgers said: 'For me it is something that when you are a professional sportsperson at the top level of the game, I don't think it is something you should be doing. It is as simple as that.'But I will speak to him on it, to see what he says on it. As you can imagine, I have only seen this today.'FOOTBALLERS WHO HAVE BEEN ACCUSED OF USING HIPPY CRACK In 2.

England right- back Kyle Walker issued a grovelling apology after he was pictured inhaling the gas during an night out in Sheffield. He later said: 'I have now been made aware of the health risks associated with the practice and accept that my actions were of poor judgement.'In the same year, a photo was published showing then- Newcastle striker Nile Ranger inhaling from a balloon at the wheel of his car. The picture appeared on Instagram days before he was involved in a car accident. Last year, West Bromwich Albion striker Saido Berahino was also pictured apparently inhaling the gas in his car, before reportedly driving from Birmingham to London.

In a statement, Berahino later said: ‘This was very poor judgement on my part and not the right example to be setting. Rodgers added: 'We want players here who are super- professional and focused on their football. I know he is. He very much is focused on his football and improving as a player.'As I have said before, young players make mistakes. As long as they learn from them, that is what is important.'The matter adds to the controversy currently surrounding Sterling amid a wrangle over a new contract. He risked the wrath of supporters a fortnight ago by admitting he had rejected a £1.

Another newspaper also published pictures of him allegedly smoking a shisha pipe over the weekend. Rodgers said any repercussions following the latest matter would be dealt with internally. He added that he did not feel the matter was a distraction. He said: 'I will speak to Raheem. Until then, it is something we will deal with internally.'Former Liverpool player Jamie Carragher last night said the young star needs to learn from his mistakes and mature. He told Sky Sports: 'You make mistakes at that age, I did, we all do.

The video emerged days after the Liverpool and England star was pictured puffing on a shisha pipe. The episode threatens to further disrupt Liverpool's preparation for their key FA cup semi- final clash with Aston Villa at Wembley stadium on Sunday.

HOW USING NITROUS OXIDE CAN BE FATAL Nitrous oxide has become popular with revellers in recent years, but experts warn it is dangerous. Nitrous oxide is a gas that can make people feel relaxed, euphoric and giggly, leading to its nickname 'laughing gas'. It is not illegal to be in possession of the substance, sometimes also known as 'hippy crack', although it is prohibited from being sold in England and Wales to under- 1.

Abusing nitrous oxide can lead to oxygen deprivation resulting in loss of blood pressure, fainting and even heart attacks. While the gas can be legitimately used for pain relief in dental procedures, in engines to make them perform better, and in aerosol cans to prevent food going off, there have been concerns at its use as a so- called legal high. A Home Office campaign last year on the risks of legal highs showed that laughing gas was the second most popular drug among young adults in 2.

Research by the Local Government Association also described as 'deeply disturbing' the notion that many young people view nitrous oxide as safe, despite it being linked to a number of deaths. Seventeen- year- old Joseph Benett suffered a cardiac arrest after taking the popular party drug in 2. The promising art student fell into a coma but later died.

In September last year three revellers became ill at a nightclub in Bolton after suffering a suspected bad reaction to laughing gas. Police were called to Royal Bolton Hospital amid reports the patients were suffering from the effects of drug ingestion. It was thought they may have inhaled nitrous oxide, but they were said at the time to be recovering well.

Their legal team tried to blunt the lawsuit by claiming that as contractors, the two psychologists couldn’t be held legally responsible for developing the torture regime and the CIA should be held liable instead. The ACLU is suing Mitchell and Jensen on behalf of Abdullah Salim, Mohammed Ahmed Ben Soud, and Gul Rahman, all of whom were tortured using techniques designed by the duo.

The suit is just the latest consequence for mental health professionals who aided George W.

In 2. 01. 5, the American Psychological Association faced claims it collaborated in torture when it created an “A. P.

In one email, the New York Times reported, a CIA psychologist wrote to an APA official Mitchell and Jessen’s role was “doing special things to special people in special places.” That virtually everyone has urged the two to settle reflects the fact that in any just world, their defense would lose, big time. This week, the two defendants compared themselves to Joachim Drosihn, an employee of German chemical company Tesch & Stabenow who manufactured Zyklon B poison gas for Nazi death camps.

Drohsin was acquitted on the grounds he lacked the ability to direct how Nazi authorities would use the gas.
