"Beware that using iced water increases the risk of pleurisy, the serious condition of water in the lungs."
I've never heard of the site before, but why would someone lie about this?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleurisy
I was just reading this... And I realized I've had this before! I didn't go to work for like a week, but I never saw a doctor... holy shit that's trippy. But now I know I'm never using ice in a bong~
hmm i find that hard to believe because it says used chilled water but not ice water when you put ice in it almost melts after 4 hits making the water chilled? and all ice is frozen water what would make it so much worse i dont know...
I'm just thinking about this, and whether or not it could be seriously harmful. I mean, in the great scheme of things, how much more harmful is it than smoking weed or ciggs on a regular basis.
Like anything, extended periods of use can cause harm to people. That goes for a lot of things, like riding rolling coasters all the time can give you chronic headaches, or drinking coffee everyday makes the body more prone to not having energy without caffeine, or drinking soda can rot your teeth.
Everything in moderation, ya know? Even if it DOES harm you, I'm pretty sure that using a bong once a week, or even a couple times a week, won't cause any serious damage. I could be wrong, but....
Never thought of that. Under the right/wrong circumstances, it probably good be a bad thing. Eventually, one could develop pneumonia.
I am thinking the same thing
Water in the lungs is bad.
Time to start smoking joints again:rasta:
What..are you guys serious? Come on, it's not as bad as you guys are making it out to be. You're just breathing in cold, moist air.
I know for a fact that the steam from hot showers is very beneficial to your lungs. Even if it bad for you, it can't harm you any more than smoking weed does. You guys freak out to much about it, me thinks.
I could careless, nothing hits the spot more than taking a scaulding hot shower while ripping a monster ice chilled bong rip
gothens right
That's a very good point, and very true... I wonder where this guy got his info about ice being bad... I'm not gonna stop using bongs, I'm just going to not use ice anymore if I get chest pain or anything else WikiPedia describesQuote:
