i know its just ignorant americans. I’m an arab and I’ve been smoking it for years and I still run one mile in 7:00 flat at 5,000 m altitude.. I got perfect cardio
Its not addicting, shouldnt be smoked while sketched. I smoke at friends house and were all just chill. Go hookah!
Can you use hookah to get off cigarettes?
it became mega poular here maybe like 2-3 years ago. but yah even though i feel like american kids are making a big deal about it. its just hookah so calm down.
@StaticSoundz There IS tar in hookah tobacco. IT’S TOBACCO! So it contains tar… And the water doesn’t filter the smoke, it just cools the smoke.
But, hookah ftw xD
Yeah, I tried smoking a cig once and it was terrible, and hard as hell to inhale. My first hit with hookah was smooth and relaxing(but that’s just me). But I agree with a lot of other people… there’s no deaths due to hookah, but millions due to smoking. Like, i don’t really care if someone chooses to smoke, it’s their life, but it pisses me off when someone starts bashing hookah. Just bashing in particular pisses me off. If you smoke cigs, or hookah, whatever let them live their lives.
This Is An Asian Ting =D
@d789b That’s because oxicen is missing in your brain while you smoke hookah.
@StaticSoundz
are you sure about the carbon monoxide fact? I’ve heard the carbon monoxide can come from the charcoal, especially the cheap quick light ones.
yes but natural tobacco has 4000 chemicals and the cigarette chemicals that is over 4400 chemicals but hookah makes tobacco safer and destroys most of the chemicals in natural tobacco so smoke hookah or just smoke weed
ok buddy, nicotine is what drives you to smoke more..
BUT people that smoke hookah think it’s not bad..it causes heart disease, stroke cancer, and more..tell me again it’s not bad
dude..stfu
it’s still bad though right? causes heart disease right? cancer? right?!
then it’s bad..regardless of it being less harmful then cigz

:X i love it and i smoke for 2 years and i have nothing (sorry for bad english)
That’s funny, when I inhaled it, I truly got light headed. Ha-ha.
Lebanese rule!!
it does make you smell like smoke, but its not gross smell
@lmlm301 thats if the hookahs cleaned on a daily smoke?nah its not.
@chaizy23 if you dont inhale it you dont get the buzz :/
@lmlm301 well you don’t really inhale it you know?
it’s not like a cigarette.
you take a drag and breath it out without inhaling it.. i can’t explain, I’m german..
1. Hookah has far more tar than cigarettes
2. Any time plant matter is combusted it produces THOUSANDS of chemical combustion byproducts.
3. The water works like bong water. Some larger particles are filtered out, but most of the tar and other chemicals remain. The water is mainly just there to cool the smoke so you feel like you’re inhaling smoke.
If you want to smoke, that’s fine. Just don’t BS yourself into thinking it’s not bad for you…
@lmlm301 yeah but i really doubt you are a med student because your facts are all wrong
@lmlm301 thats only if you share your mouth piece one way to fix that if you go to the hookah bar bring you own mouth piece
@lmlm301 your retarded the nicotine needs to be at the boiling point to have the nicotine to activated and it has tar but the tobacco needs to be burning for the tar to go with the smoke
