I don't know but my grandmother never smoked a day in her life and died of cancer. My grandfather smoked right up until the day he died of advanced age at 94.

First off, yes smoking is bad.

You are not going to find any numbers that are remotely accurate.

First you have the anti-smoking radicals. I'm sure you've seen their over the top commercials. They are going to give all kinds of crazy unfounded numbers.

Then you have the denial camp, trying to water it down.

Truth is, there is no number. How can there be with all the factors that people are exposed to all their lives!!!

You ever sit in a traffic jam? Now try to imagine how much carcinogenic chemicals you breathed during that time from all the automobile exhaust. Ever have a school bus spew out a cloud of black smoke right into your car? Now multiply that over a life time. YIKES!

There are so many factors that contribute to cancers that are associated with "smoke" that to try to pin down a number attributed to the tobacco industry is nothing more than a 100% guess.

So in the theme of good sportsmanship…I’ll say 32. Which is as good of an answer of any.

I don't have the statistics for your question but out here in California and I think probably Atlantic City N.J., all of the employees of the casino's that breath the second hand smoke, what type of lung disease are they going to have in later years? My mother in Law and Farther in Law both work in a casino and they keep trying to get me work their also but i refuse to. When I go there for any length of time, i get desperately sick from all the smoke. I used to smoke and can handle the smell pretty good but this place kills me! I wonder time and time again what are the future employee's of this place going to be like? Do they have any recourse? I assume not because most don't play by society's rules! Second hand smoke in casino's are deadly but nobody seems to see this but me. Am I crazy or what? Why don't people think of this stuff? I'm totally out for this answer.

Obviously you are a victim of brainwashing.
Did you know the CDC scrapped a 10 year study of second hand smoke...because it DISPROVED their second hand smoke kills...ban smoking everywhere agenda?
Get thee to a deprogramming center, ask them to reinstall your brain.
