[Erowid Note: Our understanding of the literature is that there is no such thing as safe recreational use of volatile solvents, aerosols and other street inhalants : their psychoactive effects are inseparable from nerve and organ damage. We have chosen to include these reports to help document the real world use of inhalants, but their inclusion is not intended to imply that they are anything but dangerous.]
I was with my cousin in his parents garage. He was doing some chemistry work at the Junior College. He had obtained some medical grade ethyl ether thru mail order.

After dosing a cloth we proceeded to inhale several times off of the cloth. Feelings of being very light headed, hearing a tapping sound getting louder and louder with tapping intervals closer and closer together. Very strange experience that I wanted to continue. Later I went into the bathroom and looked into a mirror, with a mirror that folded away from the main mirror. Inhaled more deeply and saw a reflection of a reflection of a reflection in the mirrors. At the time was reading 'Kip Thornes, Black Holes and Warped Spacetime' book. Very strange experience saw myself in 3 dimensions as a reflections of a person in a garage, of a person in a garage in all directions, very scary.
