A pump-less inflation device including a hollow conical casing, a puncturable membrane, a one-way valve that allows gas egress from the casing, a first chemical that reacts with oxygen and generates heat, and a second chemical that decomposes when heated and releases nitrogen gas. A method of inflating an inflatable object using the inflation device whereby the puncturable membrane is punctured with a puncturing device to allow oxygen to enter the inflation device and react with the first chemical, which generates heat and decomposes the second chemical, which releases nitrogen gas that escapes from the narrow first end of the inflation device. The inflatable object is inflated with the released nitrogen gas.
