some kids now put milk, soda, and other **** int he bottom but thats garbage, dont do it. white kids these days wanna cry about how theyu hate arabic people but then they smoke our **** and rappers use our music.

im reading these responses and they are appalling! go to wikipedia and search hookah. if ur arabic its calle a nargileh. just to clarify! its always tobacco being smoked, they add fruit flavors and molassis in the tobacco u buy at the stores. some people smoke plain leafs (me). it would be stupid to smoke weed in it because it would filter smoke.

as far as damages go, ive heard it is equivalent to smokeing a hundred ciggies but ive also heard it has %0.0 tar. i dunno wat to believe but as far as im concerned, dont inhale and urll be ok. same is true with cigars and nething else.

A hooka is an oriental smoking device that consists of a water bottle surmounted by a long metal base and an attached flexible pipe to draw smoke. A small amount of tobacco is placed on the top and is lighted with charcoal embers, the smoker draws the smoke from the attached pipe and it passes through the water at the bottom bottle where it is filtered and it arrives smooth and nicotine-reduced. It has no drugs whatsoever and is used by men and women as a smoking device of leasure. Its other names are the hubble-bubble (because of the bubbles that are created in the bottle when the smoker draws from the pipe) and it is also called the water pipe. The silly answers above reflect the sheer ignorance of those who try to show-off while they know nothing.
