The effects of one cigarette on your lungs

by Final Puff

Spotted this popular but somewhat unscientific demonstration of the effects of one cigarette on the lungs.

Certainly doesn’t look very nice but was anyone expecting it to?

But this demostration would equal someone puffing and sucking on the cigarette the whole time to accurate, which when anyone smokes they do not, because it is an impossibility to suck the whole time.

So, the experiment has good intentions, but is not an accurate demonstration of how much smoke you get in your lungs from smoking one cig.

Accuracy is important when you want to get a point accross. (But I get the general gist of the argument and won’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.)
