“The Tragic Death of Nick Carter: Addiction, Mental Health, and Fatal Drug Use”

Carter is said to have been “disabled” by the effects of these drugs and as a result slipped under the water and drowned. It was a variant of the sedative Xanax. He had also inhaled compressed air. Bottles of compressed air usually contain a combination of oxygen and another gas, such as nitrogen in the case of nitrous oxide. Inhaling such substances produces a short-term intoxication and can lead to brain damage if used frequently.

Backstreet Boy’s younger brother Nick Carter passed away in November at the age of 34. He had been struggling with addictions and mental problems for some time.
