If you have the right immune conditions, there are enough germs in fresh air to kill you.

And there are quite a few allergens in fresh air, as well.

the point is- i don't have them, so taking a normal breath of fresh air isn't going to kill me. i could die while breathing, but not because of it.

believe me- i don't like being so cocky either...size 18 shoes aren't easy to come by in a lot of styles.

Most likely your last breath would be of fresh air.

Unless you drown in a latrine I guess?

Pfft 100% of people who breathe air die.

Not quite. There are a few recorded instances, including moses, John the beloved, and Elijah among others.

Oh, sure, but I don't think OP's "you" is referring to you, specifically, but rather people in general. Like the "you" in "You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone."

So you "you" might not be at significant risk of dying from a breath of fresh air, but it's totally as thing that a indefinite "you" could totally die from.

you could die from fresh air bubbles injected in your blood stream

The spirit of the statement is any “thing” not some specific action. Too much air and you can die.

You could accidentally have swallowed your own saliva while inhaling a normal breath of air, causing you to choke, and depending on the circumstances, lead you to loosing consciousness, which in turn, might lead to a head injury that leads to death

> to loosing consciousness,

Did you mean to say "losing"?
Explanation: Loose is an adjective meaning the opposite of tight, while lose is a verb.

Then you died of saliva not oxygen

>while inhaling a normal breath of air

And you literally used the word "while" 😂 how dumb are you?

Dude you never use “while”, when trying to establish causality. That’s just lazy and wrong,

Or you could breathe too much oxygen, leading to oxygen toxicity, leading to death
