+Andy Berndt; Thanks so much for posting this series. I've watched them all - one-after-another, horrified, yet entranced. I haven't smoked for about 10 years now. And I have asthma. Dumb is is dumb is, I know. 'We don't smoke the shit, we just sell it. We reserve the right to smoke for the young, the poor, the black, and the stupid.'
before i started smoking i felt amazing full of energy now 4 years later i feel like shit headaches almost everyday from smoking luckily i stooped smoking 2 years ago
In my 62 years, I've seen our society go from ' most people smoke ' to ' most people don't smoke ', so from the point of view of every non - smoker or every smoker who has ever died a tragic and pathetically sad death from cigarette induced cancer, that is a tremendous amount of progress. I would never presume to tell anyone what they can and cannot do with their lives, but knowing what we know about cigarettes now, I wouldn't endorse the habit either. It's quite logical that we've relocated the problem to the third world, where poor regulation and education still exist in great quantity, along with a great quantity of human population, whose lives are no more significant to the tobacco companies than our lives were here in North America. The profits are still rolling in, only it's their people who are dying rather than ours.
Hello, I am a Health Educator, primarily geared towards tobacco prevention. I work for a hospital in what is considered "rural" Alaska and am in charge of educating over 30 remote villages in our region. I am hoping to attain usage rights to your "Tobacco Wars- Episode 3- Smoked Out" video clip, to use for nonprofit, educational purposes. Please add me as a contact for further explaination/contact info. Thanks for your time and consideration.
I'd love to ask Mr. Raymond Sasso - shown early on, in the San Francisco bar, illegally smoking (who says 'we're losing the battle, but, not the war') now - almost 30 years, after this series was made - and IF he's still alive, if his position' changed. If he is alive, I'd like to hear about his current health, so - Mr. Sasso - if you are out there, somewhere, and can see this (or, if a living friend, or relative of his does), kindly drop a line, here, and tell us; what happened in the time since this aired to Mr. Sasso, and his health.
@@dogguy8603 no, I'm a person who a) doesn't want to get sick or die from smoking or breathing other people's smoke & b) doesn't want to see any of my friends, family or associates suffer or die from smoking-related illnesses!
Patricia Henley, interviewed in this part, died a decade after this show was first telecast. Her cancer had been in remission for 12 years before she died in 2009.
The outrageous statistics of Mr. Koop (starts at 45:15) is enough to make one stop and rethink what smoking does to the most precious gift of life. There is no car house money in the bank, nor any material thing worth more than you health and sanity. I worked in a night club my older brother played in and still remember those clubs saturated with smoke back in the 60's
I quite cigarettes.I smoked a pack a day.Didnt start that way but worked up to it.So I would smoke but every 3 days I would decrease my smoking by one cigarette.Sounds easy until you want another cig and it's just sitting there.I wouldn't give in because the craving wasn't overwhelming like cold turkey.Took time and had to stay with it but it worked.Im now tobacco free.Its all about the money for big tobacco,but my money goes for so many other things.
Vaping is the future. Within 10-20 years more people will vape then will smoke cigarettes. I challenge all the smokers out there (who want to quit) to go out and get a good quality vaporizer and see how easy it is to switch over. Vaping is a damn miracle and it will save lives.
vaping is smoking and is just as dangerous as tobacco... look up popcorn lung.. unfortunately ALL the data and research isn't in yet but already it is showing signs of being just as dangerous.. DON"T put shit in your Lungs.. period. By the way, I quit smoking after almost 50 years and i wouldn't touch vaping with a 10 foot poll.
+harm meijer I understand, I just wouldn't substitute vaping for smoking. quitting smoking is an adult sport, meaning its not for people who only kinda want to quit. you either do or you dont, you either succeed or you fail and each time you try to quit gets harder and harder. notice that vaping isn't any more legal in public places as cigarettes are. why?
Matt Graham It certainly isn't as bad for you as smoking, but who is to say 10 years down the line that people won't be dropping dead off some new mysterious illness?! Nicotine is a deadly poison. I feel like, if you want to quit then quit but vaping is just trading one devil for another. Not to mention, the big tobacco companies are all into the vaping biz now
you smoked for 50 years well done idiot.. I gave smoking up with vapeing for only 3 months now i dont smoke either.. Best tool there is for giving up smoking also popcorn lung is from older Vape fluid containing Diacetl
there is more diacetyl in cigarettes than in vapor.....there has never been a case of "popcorn lung" in cigarette smokers. Vaping is as close to harmless as you can get. It is a miracle, and should be embraced by health officials. It is truly the ONLY way to quit smoking successfully for most people. By the way, I agree. Nicotine is NOT especially addictive. Smoking is.
Picking up smoking was one of the most stupid things I’ve done in my life. 😢 It’s day 10 after I quit, the withdrawal effects are largely gone and I’m feeling great. 😊
Congrats but please stay alert. Dont be complacent. It’ll sneak up on you… especially when bad news arrive. Or good news for that matter. Also, stay alert when you would be seeing people or go to places or any experiences where smoking was involved.
I smoke myself and have since I was eleven I cant stop because I am addicted to it but it would be a lot easier to quit if I didn't enjoy it People say you only think you enjoy it because your addicted to it and yet I know people who very rarely smoke but when they do they do so because of the simple fact that they enjoy it the reason for this enjoyment is because cigarettes release dopamine into the brain, the pleasure chemical. not illegal why? cos in 2011 the British gov made £ billion tax.
if you choose to smoke i think you should pay higher health insurance- my employer has started doing this in 2012. if you smoke your premiums are double that of non smokers. i think its only fair they pay more.
Great documentary! I've been a smoker for about a year and a half, smoking about three cigarettes a week with additive free rolling tobacco and its probably one of the most enjoyable habits I've ever taken up in my life. Here are 5 Thoughts on Why I Smoke Cigarettes: 1. If you are not willing to even give me the time of day because I have a pinch of dried leaves rolled into a tiny cylinder of paper and lit on fire between my fingers, and that's your only reason to not talk to me, then thank you for removing yourself from the equation and not wasting my time. 2. There is something zen and meditative about sitting down with a bag of tobacco and rolling your own cigarettes. The mechanical muscle memory of making something relieves you of having to focus on other things. 3. Almost everything seems better with a cigarette. Long drives in the car. Pulling an all-nighter. Coffee. Sex. Taking a poop. The only thing I can think of that it makes worse is a stuffy nose and a sore throat from a cold, and god dammit if I just don't soldier through that. 4. There's something beautiful about the way that smoke curls through the air, interacts with sunlight, and vanishes like it never existed. It really makes me want to capture it in a photograph or draw it on a pad of paper. 5. As far as addictions go, smoking cigarettes is probably the least harmful one that I have. Friendships will come and go. Relationships will start and end. People are born and then we die. But I can always go to a gas station and buy a new pack of cigarettes.
+Hamza B That applies to most things Except for drug addiction. Smoking IS drug addiction-Nothing more, nothing less. The ONLY pleasure the smoker ever gets is the temporary relief from craving a cigarette that is cause by the body withdrawing from nicotine. It's like saying "a little heroin does you good."....

The flight attendant (around 26:30) says the tobacco companies are evil & to blame for her disease. But isn't the other real culprit here the airline she worked for??? After all, given the info available at the time it would have been clear to the airline that the _concentrated_ smoke in a plane cabin couldn't be good. As a boy, 30yrs ago, I used to ride some trains in the Smoking Cars because they had free seats. Even I knew that the concentrated smoke couldn't be good but I figured it was only a short time. If a 15yo schoolboy could work that out I reckon an airline could too.
+thePrinceBuster5 it's both ways, because up until relatively recently, it was next-to-impossible to even SUE the tobacco companies for your health problems, as part of the argument was 'nobody forced you to.' Which also covers the airlines in away because, they could say there was no concrete information one-way-or-another about the effects of secondhand smoke.
The lady smoking through the hole in her throat is saying, "I had my first cigarette when I was thirteen. I can't remember doing very many things without a cigarette in my hand. Almost like a twin. A Siamese twin, somebody that was there constantly. Someone who is embracing you, like a friend is there. Everything is going to be all right. . . I light the cigarette essentially through my mouth, and after it's lit I hold it to the stoma. . . and I'd like to say I just take a little puff, but you don't, you get all that you can (wheezing laugh)"
only problem with that is if you vape then you fail the nicotine test, and are considered a "smoker" even though the risks are many times less for the electronic cigarettes
Disgusting; yeah, I'm feeling pretty good about having quit two months ago right about now. There is a fair amount of depression and sadness with nicotine withdrawal (in my case anyways), but fuck it, ANYTHING is better than that. 10 years of smoking was enough for me; unfortunately, I'll probably pay for it with my health later in life.
I understamated Tobacco started smoking 1998 Marlboro reds cost $2.50c got addicted fast slow me down in school n physically didn't knw how serious this was or why i thought it was neat trouble me in many ways lost friends to influence of this Tobacco,just imagine a insecure teenager in his prime getting addicting like candy lost confidence self esteem, strangers totally took advantage 🤬
i dont understand how after all this disclosure of fraud and crime that they are still in business?? how is the gov allowing any company to sell a product that kills?
@@teddyaldridge7871 but non of these guys went to jail ,they simply paid heavy fines and were allowed to continue doing the same thing they been doing,,what a joke
Absolutely. Its a proven killer of millions and should be outlawed. Let the tobacco growers raise other crops just as the United States tries to force the governments of South America to control their coca growers. And cocaine kills far less...
@@pdm2201 tbh i would not like such strong gov control to outlaw tobacco as a smoker myself and then where does this stop? but that does not mean you cant hold some of these ceo's responsible for malice acts and purgery and undo some of the things these co's done to boost nicotine etc ,in the end the public should be told the truth and make there own choice
I honestly don't, because smokers are still human beings, they're already paying higher taxes on cigarettes and in many states u can't even smoke outside, so that extra law only discriminates against them. Oh and when u think about it, it won't be cigarettes that kill them, but the medical care that discriminates against them that lead to their death. Don't be a do good-er who does harm.
you over the edge into developing cancer. Two copies makes you likely to develop it even without smoking, and all but certain if you do. There have been similar triggers discovered for breast cancer, neuroblastomas, colon cancers, etc. It's also true of other things such as diabetes, Alzheimer's, and high blood pressure. One of my friends eats well, exercises, doesn't smoke or drink, and maintains a healthy weight. But due to her family history her blood pressure and cholesterol levels are
for someone to buy them the cigarette company is only taking advantage of the lack in moral education from their parents and if it was really important to the parent then they would of kept a closer eye on the child to prevent it from becoming a habit
I was a smoker, quit around 2004 (wasn't writing it down). I am a cheap SOB then I could order 5 cartons, from Indian reservation, for $100 + and change, since in NY it coasts $12 - 15.. To everybody thinking about tax benefits from pot. You're out your mind, what gives politicians the right to tax anything?
already at the upper limits of what would be considered a safe range, and will probably be on medication by the time she's 40. This isn't to say that we should be sprinkling carcinogens on our Cheerios, but you have an extremely over simplistic view of disease. Cancer prevention can be useful, but ultimately it's the very natural result of the imperfect cell replication so we will always have it. The real way to save lives is to improve our physical and genetic screening methods.
The lawyers suing pretend they care - money of huge amounts 50% go to these people. Without tobacco no money for them. It works, but addiction is addiction. Pathetic.
I started smoking at age 11...For many of reasons...I'm 35now...and I still SMOKE....And yes I still enjoy it ALITTLE bit....but for awhile now...I've been hating it...I have tried ALOT times to quit...but I always go right back to it...I guess because of WEIGHT GAIN,,,,ANGER,,,RAGE...AND REALLY BAD NERVES
I'm very glad the truth came out about tobacco and we got the majority of the population off cigarettes. That said, tobacco has been an easy target for too long now. Forget about the botched (and pointless) war on drugs. Forget about inequality. Forget about crooked politicians. I dunno. I just think it's gotten fashionable to hate on tobacco, people made money off it (lawyers, etc.) and engaged in virtue signaling, and all the while we forgot about all the other crap going on.
It's all about the money , nothing else , the root of all evil and human life is worth the greed ! You are expendable in their view that is your value to these people the corporation and the executives only see you as worthless so enjoy that next drag or quit and get your head screwed on straight !
Ok to everyone who smokes and say they like it.... its ok to like it its normal to like something and yes u get addicted to it...but if u say u dont care about the dangers of smoking then ur screwed ... i mean come on use your brain. we can only live once its not worth it to risk our lives with smoking and if u do dont die..its still painful. so just think about that
I love smoking, always wanted to smoke when growing up and when started loved it and will smoke for the rest of my shorter but more enjoyable life. Me and my partner both are heavy smokers, I love the smell in home, car, on clothes and breath of us. The addiction makes me enjoy even more. worth the cost and health risks. dont want to get ill but ok that die bit younger, love being smoker, the smell, look and way feels
Actually your likelihood of development, type, and severity of cancer is primarily determined by your genetics. Recently they've discovered a gene that is very involved with the development of lung cancer. No copies means you're highly unlikely to develop lung cancer, and probably account for the people who smoke several packs a day for decades without getting sick. One copy gives you a moderate chance of developing it, and exposure to carcinogens from smoking could very well be what tips
lol...Ayn Rand was a fuckstick for the second half of her life that absolutely refused to accept the fact that smoking cigarettes caused her lung cancer that then of course took her ass out. This "data" of yours sounds of something she'd accept as fucking gospel to help support her latent fuckheadedness, the huge disappointment that girl became to her fans, like myself at one time. Please don't take offense to my words here, Sir. Cheers!
You know a lot of people smoke, and then they quit. These people always discuss smoking as a death sentence.. that is just untrue. This stuff is mostly bull.
Its my legal suicide, i completely agree... i love to suck it down hoping i get cancer so i can smoke some weed legally ... for real im not joking ... then again some say i have problems
pls don't feel sorry for someone who enjoy's what he does, we live only once and i would love to live that life how i want. Smoking is a free choice u should not judge people because they want's to smoke. If u do u should go judge people who eats in Mc donalds or "kinda" places. Smoking gives me more good than bad at the moment, it might turn upside down, but at least i enjoyed it now! "I Feel sorry for you" cos u don't know what your missing while u don't smoke
I smoked many years.. Until I watched my best friend die of smoking.. a horrible death at 60. Smoking is an addiction.. And not as much of a choice as you think. It takes balls to quit even if you hate it. But go right ahead and puff away. Your life.. Your lungs..
well, I will never be a slave to tobacco again.. my life is much less complicated now that I don't smoke and far more enjoyable to me. Guess I would have to ask your grandfather personally if he thinks dying is worth smoking... Now that I have been on both sides of this I'll chose to be free of the addiction and continue to hope others will find that peace of mind and body. You don't need to respond more, I can see you are a strong person, most smokers are or they wouldn't have been able to force the smoke down in to lungs that weren't meant to have smoke in them. We weren't born with chimney's.
Man I smoke cigars I hope this cancer s""t won't happen to me but they make me look cool so it's not worth quitting but dying over and taking out some pedestrians by the way, that's life for the most part I guess. I don't think nicotine makes me crazy but weed on the other hand.
I half the population wants to smoke let them. Every bar and restaurant can have a smokers area, and make sure there are laws regarding child protection etc for passive smoke. Tax sh*t of them and use this to pay for smoking related disease. In the end its freedom of choice.

well how do they monitor who smokes?
There is a series of tests, such as measuring carbon monoxide levels, x-raying lungs showing congestion in the hair sacs
Unfortunately-that only works with cannabis. A benign substance. It’s a shame
Nice! I support this entirely.

@@pdm2201 tbh i would not like such strong gov control to outlaw tobacco as a smoker myself and then where does this stop? but that does not mean you cant hold some of these ceo's responsible for malice acts and purgery and undo some of the things these co's done to boost nicotine etc ,in the end the public should be told the truth and make there own choice
I honestly don't, because smokers are still human beings, they're already paying higher taxes on cigarettes and in many states u can't even smoke outside, so that extra law only discriminates against them. Oh and when u think about it, it won't be cigarettes that kill them, but the medical care that discriminates against them that lead to their death. Don't be a do good-er who does harm.
2:47 the young, the poor, the black and the stupid 😂
Disrespect for the freedom to choose to use a drug like nicotine is what makes me throw up.
You sir proved that tobacco is addictive.
41:58 that little flake would probably only make 5 prison cigarettes
That barely makes 1 prison rollup.
us talk about clean air in public places was in new York couldn't breath due to cars and trucks not smokers
I'm a cigar smoker. As long as they roll-em, I'll smoke em.
you over the edge into developing cancer. Two copies makes you likely to develop it even without smoking, and all but certain if you do. There have been similar triggers discovered for breast cancer, neuroblastomas, colon cancers, etc. It's also true of other things such as diabetes, Alzheimer's, and high blood pressure. One of my friends eats well, exercises, doesn't smoke or drink, and maintains a healthy weight. But due to her family history her blood pressure and cholesterol levels are
they have never once lowered their prices! they have only raised them 1000 fold
for someone to buy them the cigarette company is only taking advantage of the lack in moral education from their parents and if it was really important to the parent then they would of kept a closer eye on the child to prevent it from becoming a habit
I was a smoker, quit around 2004 (wasn't writing it down). I am a cheap SOB then I could order 5 cartons, from Indian reservation, for $100 + and change, since in NY it coasts $12 - 15.. To everybody thinking about tax benefits from pot. You're out your mind, what gives politicians the right to tax anything?
i smoke both ... what is happening to my body ?!! 0.o ?
already at the upper limits of what would be considered a safe range, and will probably be on medication by the time she's 40. This isn't to say that we should be sprinkling carcinogens on our Cheerios, but you have an extremely over simplistic view of disease. Cancer prevention can be useful, but ultimately it's the very natural result of the imperfect cell replication so we will always have it. The real way to save lives is to improve our physical and genetic screening methods.
15:28 Here comes the groupspeak.
anybody know who the main narrator is?
Scott Dinger Five year on if you're still wondering it was Walter Cronkite, who probably died due to his smoking.
The lawyers suing pretend they care - money of huge amounts 50% go to these people. Without tobacco no money for them. It works, but addiction is addiction. Pathetic.
heydudedolfan13 What did your lawyer get?
I started smoking at age 11...For many of reasons...I'm 35now...and I still SMOKE....And yes I still enjoy it ALITTLE bit....but for awhile now...I've been hating it...I have tried ALOT times to quit...but I always go right back to it...I guess because of WEIGHT GAIN,,,,ANGER,,,RAGE...AND REALLY BAD NERVES
Keep trying to quit CJ, you'll beat it.
@@eddieb7054 yuh you got dis bruh
How is it now?
Don Barett is hilarious
Good luck telling that to your Crying Kids/Family...
16:35 ah hayt theym with a purrfect hayt
I'm very glad the truth came out about tobacco and we got the majority of the population off cigarettes. That said, tobacco has been an easy target for too long now. Forget about the botched (and pointless) war on drugs. Forget about inequality. Forget about crooked politicians. I dunno. I just think it's gotten fashionable to hate on tobacco, people made money off it (lawyers, etc.) and engaged in virtue signaling, and all the while we forgot about all the other crap going on.
It's all about the money , nothing else , the root of all evil and human life is worth the greed ! You are expendable in their view that is your value to these people the corporation and the executives only see you as worthless so enjoy that next drag or quit and get your head screwed on straight !
The smoking police lol only in California.
No it doesn't.
I'm moving to Davis, California. There's seemingly less dirtbagz there. lol...
Ok to everyone who smokes and say they like it.... its ok to like it its normal to like something and yes u get addicted to it...but if u say u dont care about the dangers of smoking then ur screwed ... i mean come on use your brain. we can only live once its not worth it to risk our lives with smoking and if u do dont die..its still painful. so just think about that
I love smoking, always wanted to smoke when growing up and when started loved it and will smoke for the rest of my shorter but more enjoyable life. Me and my partner both are heavy smokers, I love the smell in home, car, on clothes and breath of us. The addiction makes me enjoy even more. worth the cost and health risks. dont want to get ill but ok that die bit younger, love being smoker, the smell, look and way feels
Smoke Out!!
Actually your likelihood of development, type, and severity of cancer is primarily determined by your genetics. Recently they've discovered a gene that is very involved with the development of lung cancer. No copies means you're highly unlikely to develop lung cancer, and probably account for the people who smoke several packs a day for decades without getting sick. One copy gives you a moderate chance of developing it, and exposure to carcinogens from smoking could very well be what tips
lol...Ayn Rand was a fuckstick for the second half of her life that absolutely refused to accept the fact that smoking cigarettes caused her lung cancer that then of course took her ass out. This "data" of yours sounds of something she'd accept as fucking gospel to help support her latent fuckheadedness, the huge disappointment that girl became to her fans, like myself at one time. Please don't take offense to my words here, Sir. Cheers!
Nice robot 🤖 voice! Everyone knows cigarettes 🚬 are very bad for heath.
£11 Billion in tax.
Higher nicotine tobacco is good because it means you smoke less.
Lol thats what you’d think
You know a lot of people smoke, and then they quit.
These people always discuss smoking as a death sentence.. that is just untrue.
This stuff is mostly bull.
Cancer always Win !
@yubnub23 I TOTALLY agree with you
Walter Cronkyte
It is also saying that propaganda is a force to be reccond with.
the devils machinations
If someone is breaking the law in the bar, you don't ask them can I get you a beer. Don't serve them. Talk about hypocrisy.
Its my legal suicide, i completely agree... i love to suck it down hoping i get cancer so i can smoke some weed legally ... for real im not joking ... then again some say i have problems
i Love smoking!
you are the only person i have ever heard say that... I am so sorry for you..
pls don't feel sorry for someone who enjoy's what he does, we live only once and i would love to live that life how i want. Smoking is a free choice u should not judge people because they want's to smoke. If u do u should go judge people who eats in Mc donalds or "kinda" places. Smoking gives me more good than bad at the moment, it might turn upside down, but at least i enjoyed it now! "I Feel sorry for you" cos u don't know what your missing while u don't smoke
I smoked many years.. Until I watched my best friend die of smoking.. a horrible death at 60. Smoking is an addiction.. And not as much of a choice as you think. It takes balls to quit even if you hate it. But go right ahead and puff away. Your life.. Your lungs..
my grandfather is about to die. Smoking is one reason for his bad condition, He does not regret that and he doesn't even know why he should.
well, I will never be a slave to tobacco again.. my life is much less complicated now that I don't smoke and far more enjoyable to me. Guess I would have to ask your grandfather personally if he thinks dying is worth smoking... Now that I have been on both sides of this I'll chose to be free of the addiction and continue to hope others will find that peace of mind and body. You don't need to respond more, I can see you are a strong person, most smokers are or they wouldn't have been able to force the smoke down in to lungs that weren't meant to have smoke in them. We weren't born with chimney's.
15:28 bunch of scoundrels and genocides
Man I smoke cigars I hope this cancer s""t won't happen to me but they make me look cool so it's not worth quitting but dying over and taking out some pedestrians by the way, that's life for the most part I guess. I don't think nicotine makes me crazy but weed on the other hand.
If you're actually being serious, you're crazy.
39:45 A woke judge with fuck all better to do
I half the population wants to smoke let them. Every bar and restaurant can have a smokers area, and make sure there are laws regarding child protection etc for passive smoke. Tax sh*t of them and use this to pay for smoking related disease. In the end its freedom of choice.
wonder if Raymond is Dead YET
In the UK, smokers subsidise non smokers.
@zarathustrawild yes to be reccond with. let me just save you a lot of hardship - spell check. google it.
Howa bout u let us do whT we want n u can keep ur sacks of money
Because doing what you want impacts the life of others. You don't have the right to do this.
@@alwhyte6533 u replied to a comment from 10 years ago 🤣🤣
Tobacco is the deadliest drug.
Hell no it is deadly but not the deadliest
Fentanyl is the deadliest
Not close
