Smoking & Your Lungs

In honor of lung cancer awareness, take a stand/commit to protect yourselves from the health effects of tobacco use.

Garrett Harding, outreach coordinator at Huntsman Cancer Institute, shows a demonstration of the effect of smoking on your lungs. In the video the inflatable pig lungs simulate the lungs of a person who has been exposed to normal amounts of air pollutants and has smoked a pack of cigarettes per day for about 20 years.

I am 18 years old and never smoked before, this video is making me so glad i never started smoking and i am sure of my words "i will never smoke"

[charlesgerety]

This grossed me out however it's productive to be aware

[GROENAASMusic]

It's been almost two months without a cigarette. Not going back. Especially not after seeing this.

[paulnjenga]

I Have now smoked for 7 year, and from now after watching this video i have stopped it.

[andrewbrumagen]

My dad passed away from lung cancer and my brother quit smoking and then I quit smoking as well around 16 years ago now. I can't even smell it now, our neighbor was a smoker but she moved thank God because she smoked out back.

[dogleggedhades]

Trying to quit. Maybe ingraining these images will help. Wish me luck, it's more difficult than you can imagine. Got some gum coming in, hopefully that helps. If anyone has tips besides suck it up, I'd be grateful.

My mom used to smoke, and my dad started vaping instead, we were in a really bad place, and they started smoking again, now that we are out, they are still smoking and it's scary

[chopper]

I’ve stopped smoking after watching videos like this one and it actually helped me a lot and it’s been 1 month I’m smoke free I’ve been smoking since 19 years old & now I’m 44 I’m not gonna start again and I can already feel the difference guys please don’t smoke if you haven’t smoked in your life it’s a poison it’s not worth it

[eliseminshall]

i’ve had a bad cough for like 2 weeks now and i’m convinced i’m not recovering from it fast because over the summer i smoked a couple times

[serinlico]

I want to stop but emotions start building up and sometimes tears fall down when I stop smoking for a whole day. I hate that feeling. So, I continued even though I feel pain in my chest. I thought I had nothing to loose. But this feeling of regret stings sometimes.

[yatoratakami]

I try to tell my mom to stop smoking, she says she will but she does the opposite

[jimcaneda]

So did you make the pig smoke for 20 years? How did you manage to get the pig lungs to be like that?

[Stig]

What does a whole lung lavage look like on a smoker?
Also how did you get a pig to inhale so much smoke seems almost kind of torturous to the pig :-( I mean yeah we get to learn from it.

[azamatzhanadilov]

Thanks, after this video I've no zeal to smoke
