snowman Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I don't know if you guys have ever heard of it, maybe its just a local eugene thing. Anyways, what you do is crouch as low as possible to the ground and start a slow draw of the hookah, slowly rising and drawing until you are fully erect then you hold it for a second and let it out slowly.It gets you buzzed like no other lol, everyone that i've seen try it freaks out.. but heres what happened to me.. kinda weird/kinda funny:i did an elevator after seshing for like half an hour sitting down, i guess the head rush combined with the draw was a little too intense so i got a little light-headed.. so i put my hand on the wall and then out of nowhere i blacked out, i opened my eyes sitting on my couch 5 seconds later and i was tweakin out.. I know that sounds kinda scary but it was the craziest shit of my life lol.. good times ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiberianKiss Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I've never heard of such a thing but I'm going to have to try this... over a couch of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGuy Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 i've heard of similar things sort of. sounds fun, but possibly dangerous, dunno why though (might be the fact you randomly blacked out lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheetz Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 well, the only thing I would say that compares to is jumping up real fast and becoming slightly dizzy. Um, you guys keep doing your elevator trick, but to me it sounds like you are depriving yourself of Oxygen. Could be wrong, I gave up on my path with med school before I got to something like this. LOL and no I didnt fail out, I hate wasting my money and 8 years is to god damn long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownZero Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 It probably has to do with using your muscles... since you are crouching down and then lifting yourself while inhaling the smoke. It's like working out and doing squats without the weights. The muscles need the oxygen you breathe in to work efficiently - which is why good breathing is crucial to working out. Sooo.. I'm guessing the contents in the smoke are going through the body quicker which is giving the intense buzz. I'm not sure I want to feel that strong of a buzz. =/ buut.. I could be wrong...

It is a lack of oxygen caused by a couple factors:1. You are crushing your lungs when squatting, thus reducing the ammount of good oxygen before the pull.2. You are using a lot of muscles to stand up, which requires a lt of oxygen, which you dont have because you were crushing your lungs.3. This is a damn silly idea. If you fall the wrong way, you are going to burn yourself on the hookah, tip it over, break it, start the room on fire, etc. The point of a hookah is to sit. And relax. If you are smoking for the buzz, most people here will agree, that you are smoking for the wrong reason.Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeding_Heart1 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 im sure its because of lack of oxygen. Ive heard of it as a rising shotgun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macho555 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I actually did this one time by accident. I was smoking and taking in the drag when I bent down to pick up the tongs I dropped. Made me dizzy as hell, I thought I had gotten a bad batch of layalina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGuy Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I don't think anyone smoked just for the buzz. i'm not going to say buzz doesnt play a role in why i smoke, but personally i like it. But as i said, why smoke hsisha just for the buzz when you could smoke other stuff n get totally "buzzed" lolYeah, is oxygen deprivation. there is a "game" you can "play" where basically you bend over and start hyperventilating, then when you are really breathing quick, take a deep breath in and jump up, then a "friend" comes up behind and squeezes just below the rib cage and it causes you to pass out. Ive had it done once before, it's an interesting experience, lasts usually no more than a minute. i dont suggest you do it because cutting of oxygen to your brain kills braincells so....something to do with oxygen not getting to the brain.

Verata Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I found out that if you don't want to get really light headed, then don't smoke two bowls by yourself. I was buzzing and could barely stand for about a hour and a half. Then again a may be a wuss as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 Yeah, smoke your hookah while doing "cherry pickers". That'll mess you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauldavis Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 hey, if you just wanna get messed up, just smoke a bowl of the ol' lando calrissian...you can do that without getting up, which is a big plus for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
