what happens if you smoke a cigarette covered with nitroglycerin?
would you explode, or your lungs, or nothing, or would you just cough?

nitroglycerin acts as a vasodilator in your body. In other words it causes your blood vessels to become a larger diameter. This is why people with heart problems are given nitroglycerin, to open up the vessels and let the blood flow easier.
It also has a nasty side affect of giving you a nasty migraine headache.
as far as putting it on a cig, well yes it would explode and probably take your head with it.
