We need to have an honest conversation about smoking: The problem with smoking is that it is way more than just a physical addiction.
Smoking creates a temporary problem and offers an instant solution. Once your brain is used to nicotine, for up to 72 hours you are itchy,
nervous and stressed – but one drag and instantly, you feel really good. It also helps you focus and take breaks during work, while suppressing your appetite.
So why is it such a bad idea?

Started at 13, and haven't left it since. Don't do it. You can't go to a store and not think of buying a pack.
Next video
Cocain is awesome
The "short of breath" made me suffocated like hell!!
ok lets make it clear, for all of us smokers we know the addiction is what's causing our anxiety and smoking is more of a temporary relief and nothing like the euphoria this video implies. This channel is dangerous because it targets children with it's contrarian click bait, if you're a parent talk to your kids.

What if I smoke easy cause I?Already do that
smoking does so much harm, I wonder how it compares to air pollution in cities tho
now i feel happy about saying no to cigs and vapes, even though in the moment i felt left out and weird
Indeed it is
I’d be so interested in comparing smoking to “vaping”, which to me just seems like a rebranded version of smoking
curious how the smoking statistics look if we included vaping. Also curious to see how similar vaping is for the body
Ive been addicted to every possible form of nicotine you can think of and the weird thing is regular cigarettes are the hardest to quit, idk what it is what makes it better then vaping, pouches etc.
4:00 This is scary. I can barely watch this
ive never been addicted to any substance, but i know that quitting something that you've known for a long time is extremely difficult. sometimes i miss doing the thing i thought kept me happy, but im very proud of myself for not doing it anymore. i will never put myself in a situation where i might have to do that all over again. i will never smoke.
Pretty much why I like a good joint after a long day.
This is a great video! Love the format, make more! 😀
So is Nicotine good for us if taken in a non-destructive way like smoking? Can you guys maybe do an episode on benefits of drugs like nicotine, alcohol, sugar and others if consumed in moderation and through sources that are not damaging?
It's correct that the most of us watching is non smokers. But my brother is and he is really discipline person but he start for social reason and that habit remains. So it's more like habit..
I've was surrounded by smokers my whole childhood. I've had so many people close to me struggle and die from lung related issues. Some of my family have quit smoking because of it.
The video was so shocking, that I'll have to light a cigarette to calm down now
Nah, I'd win. 🚬
After 6 minutes of horrible things “and finally, there’s cancer”
Can you do one for vaping? 😊
Finally he gets it
Anyone see Lofi Girl? 😂
Why is fun always harmful
I was just thinking about going to the kiosk since i smoked for the first time since 6 months, and it helped me get over stress really well. But then I thought about this Video, watched it, and decided to stay home, and it made me feel calmer as well. Thank you for that!
That's it. I quit rn.
Thanks a lot. Now I'm even more desperate to never even try a single time. You are saving lives. Thank you! I love your channel! ❤
Yeaaaah nvm I'm not gonna start smoking then thanks kurzgesagt!
What I don’t understand is weather the effects on your body (scars etc) starts when you smoke regularly or if it starts after the first cigarette
Np
I quit smoking 2 years ago and I was a smoker for 16 years. I am so happy I finally did that! At first I substituted with e-cig, then I was constantly reducing nicotine. After a few months I reduced to 0, and finally throwed away e-cig too. Also sometimes I used lollipops to keep my hands and mount busy I still love ones for kids without sugar! :). If you're trying to give up smoking, I keep my fingers crossed that you will succeed!
