I have like one of those tanks with a teeny hose an like i put air in my bicycle with it. does it have helium in it? cause i wanna get a balloon an try sucking helium so my voice would sound funny lol. but i dont have a helium tank. if i some way was able to get a baloon at the end of the hose an turned on for a second would helium be in it an would it kill me lol if i sucked it?

Sucking helium is NOT dangerous so yeah
 
The cartridges contain carbon dioxide which is what your body gets rid of as waste. Helium is dangerous to inhale and can kill you, you are not getting any oxygen and will pass out.

Helium alone is less dense than atmospheric air, so it will change the timbre (not pitch[74]) of a person's voice when inhaled. However, inhaling it from a typical commercial source, such as that used to fill balloons, can be dangerous due to the risk of asphyxiation from lack of oxygen, and the number of contaminants that may be present. These could include trace amounts of other gases, in addition to aerosolized lubricating oil.
 
no, all they do is suck out the air from around you and put it through the pump, theres no way for a bike pump to generate helium
