erufiku Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 "equivalent of five packs of cigs"This statement is so wrong, I can't even believe I'm commenting on it.Does it mean to say, I am inhaling the equivalent of 100 cigs and all of the chemicals produced by them? I mean hydrogen cyanide, CO2, lead, etc.? If so, I'd be dead 10 minutes into the session due to cyanide poisoning. My lungs would also fail (in the medical sense) after a week of regular smoking.Sheer smoke volume, I'll give you that. But nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamscott06 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 wait wait wait wait.. WHAT?!?!? I smoke 5 packs of cigs for each bowl of hookah I smoke?!?!? FKCNFKFLK JDLFJDSLKFJSLKFJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColibriDon Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 *Yawn* Honestly, I couldn't care less about the so called "risks" of smoking hookah. At least until I see a legitimate study that I can look over and decide for myself if it is or is not worth the risk (Assuming there is one). Seriously, I used to smoke cigs and once I discovered hookah, I gave them up like the bad habit they were. After a week of no cigs, I felt better. My throat felt better, I didn't get winded as quickly, and I smelled like blueberries instead of cigarette smoke. Hookah is worse than cigarettes, the sky is neon green, and the moon is made of aged swiss cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffy Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 well i smoke hookah 2-3 times a day so im a 10-15 pack a day smoker (according to the video).hey you know whats wierd i used to smoke half a pack a day and i havent noticed any change in my health.hey guys later on i will post my 2 cents on hookah smoking helth risks, but hey let me say something right nowOk lets say we are in the mood for a serious solo hookah sessinon so we load up a 25 gram bowl and use 2 rounds of coals. according to the video we will be consumming at least 5 packs of ciggarettes because we are ussing a decent iszed bowl. now here is what i want some one to do, go buy 5 packs of ciggarettes and pull all the tobacco out each ciggarette and put them a big fucking pile then fill your 25 gram bowl with shsisha and dump it out next to the pile. but dont just compare the piles yet be sure to fluff the cigarette tobacco up a bit because there ussully rolled in there pretty tight. now that youve fluffed your shsiha and cigarretes you can look at the fact that you aint consuming anywere near enough tobacco to equall 5 packs. infact if you took some of that tobacco added the glisterin and honey i bet it would only take 5-6 ciggarettes to fill our 25 gram bowl.next motherfuckin video or anti-hookah coment step up now so i can knock you down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamiliarJoe Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 (edited) Even if these facts were true I would continue to smoke my hookah everyday =] It's just to good to give up and I haven't noticed any effects from it after a year of smoking it daily. ( I didnt watch the video and don't think it's worth my time from the replies) Edited January 8, 2009 by FamiliarJoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbs Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 McDonalds kills, Stress kills, and Coke kills.Hookah does not kill.There are a lot of kids that smoke hookah at VCU though, so that portion is true I guess. I like to hang out with 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang_steve Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 5 packs....I call bull.Tobacco weight of one hookah bowl versus 5 packs is a HUGE difference. Total weight of one bowl of shisha vs 5 packs is also very significant.Where was this study done at, by whom, and who payed them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redjako Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 QUOTE (kudomonster @ Aug 9 2008, 03:19 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I used to be a serious smoker, a pack a day at least. I couldn't run for shit, i would wheeze like crazy ect ect.Now I smoke hookah 3 times a week, or according to this stupid ass news clip, 15 packs a week. I run every day a few miles, I train MMA, and weight lift. NO wheezing.This is just dumb.Yeh, I've been smoking for 8 months (ciggies) but hookah for three years...almost zero comparison, and any smoker will tell you so.Need some Legit studies, as I would like to see long term effects on "realistic" smoking, not some constant machine puffing on charred shisha..who smokes charred shisha?

engineonmute Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 again, im one of those who runs 5 miles just about everyday and smokes hookah. i never have had a problem with breathing or anything. this video is def bs. i really think they put this video out there because hookah is becoming more popular, and its a form of smoking. parents don't want their kids getting into ANY type of smoking. Because parents and others make sure kids are already exposed to D.A.R.E. programs and informed about how bad smoking is, they must include something negative to say about hookah because its gathered more attention over the years... just think about it. they made this commercial to try and persuade people to not smoke in general. be proud be strong guys. dont let bs commercials ruin our love!
