For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

this was an interesting find...

if you smoke 1 pack a day, which is common, you will induce this much tar into your lungs in less than a month... if you have been smoking for years, just imagine...

Smoking Video

Wow, thats really interesting. Gotta wonder how much of the tar actually comes out in just the one bottle, especially when it gets more and more saturated. I would have put it through a couple more of those "water bong" deals just to be safe.

Re: For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

That really is depressing. Why is there always a similar thread on how nasty smoking is near winter time? It's winter, it's Minnesota, we get drunk, we smoke cigarettes.

I didn't smoke until I was 18 and it was the worst decision I ever made. That, and wasting my time/money on women for the wrong reasons.

I smoke out of boredom the most, blown up car, lack of funds, yeah I'm going to go shoot myself now, thanks for the video.

Re: For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

I stopped about a month ago. I have been smoking off and on, about a pack or so a week, for the past year and videos like these are motivation to not ever pick it up again.

Thanks for the link.

I smoke a cigar or a pipe every once in a while, usually 1 time every 1-3 weeks. I'm still on the same 1.5 oz pouch of pipe tobacco since the beginning of September and I dont inhale, but this video definately makes me step back and think twice about it.

Re: For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

Ya the main reason I don't smoke is because my dad died when I was in 8th grade from the shit so for me there is no other option then to think the shit is stupid and not worth it.

Re: For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

I stared doing it as a stress reliever back in highschool. I'd do about a pack a month at the very most, and that's with bumming friends or w/e. I still keep a pack around just to ease to mind when I really need to relax an study. I know it's not a good thing, but I make sure I keep it in perspective. In fact, I'd say in the 3 years that I've been on and off, I haven't smoke more than 10 packs for sure.

Great find though for sure. Somebody should do a study on how much crap is in second hand smoke, then send it to the guy that made this vid cus he stood right by every cig that was "smoked" haha.

Re: For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

Both my grandma and a good family friend died from smoking related illness (stroke caused by emphysema and lung cancer, respectively) yet my mom and dad still smoke to this day. I just don't get it...

Re: For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

Only time I smoke is when I'm really wasted for some reason. So I guess if I quit drinking, I'll quit smoking. HA, me quit drinking..... That was pretty gross in that vid though. It's really crazy how much of htat shit people can develop in their lungs over a lifetime...

I can't see the vid at work, but I'm so glad I quit (almost two years ago). I just feel like my life is so much better now, in so many ways and a lot of that is because I quit smoking.

I made my mom watch that... I think I might have finally started rolling the "I'm gonna quit smoking" snowball.

My dad quit after his mom died (emphysema I think). I have never smoked because of watching her die slowly over the years.

Re: For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

My dad smoked from the time he was 15, till he was 52. The reason he quit is because one of his friends had to get half of one lung removed and 2/3 of the other one removed, and another one of his friends died of lung cancer.

Re: For Those Of You Who Smoke Cigs..., video

That was the hardest thing for me to watch my dad slowly seep away from life and one part of their body shutting down at a time due to lung cancer until they can no longer breath for themselves. Hopefully at least one person stops smoking after seeing that video on here. It was worth a shot anyways.
