The "Mad Scientist Guy" that Jay Leno has on every now and then did
the "breathing sulfur hexafluoride" trick once.  After he did it, he
hung upside down and breathed deeply for a few seconds to get it out
of his lungs; he said that otherwise, much of it would stay there.

(I'm not sure how much I believe that; even though it's a very heavy
molecule, there's still some mixing.)

His voice on SF6 did have the same muffled/distorted quality as
the girls' voices.
