How many sigarets do I need to smoke in order to die same day?

Question

Sometime I just smoke too much and I wander if there is a daily limit in order not to die of overdose.

Answer 1

According to wikipedia, the lethal dose of nicotine for a person is in the range of 40-60mg.

According to Philip Morris, Marlboro Full Flavor 100s Filter cigarettes deliver about 1.1mg of nicotine each.

So, you would need to smoke enough cigarettes to have the nicotine content of about 40 cigarettes in your body at the same time, in order to experience a "same day" death.

Of course, there are the following factors which may move this number up or down:
1) Different brands and types of cigarette, as well as different styles of smoking (eg. how long you hold the smoke in your lungs, whether you cover the filter holes with your fingers) will deliver different amounts of nicotine.
2) Different people metabolize or eliminate nicotine at different rates.
3) Different people will have varying tolerance to vulnerability to the immediate effects of nicotine. For example, if you have a pre-existing health condition, it will make it easier for the cigarettes to kill you.
4) Cigarettes and other tobacco products contain many other toxins, in addition to nicotine.

Answer 2

The reason why smoking is so bad for you is that is a LONG AND PAINFUL DEATH. Its not immediate. You could smoke 100 in a day and stop and they die slowly 5 years later because of the damage you did to your lungs. It is highly unlikely that you would die the same day.

Answer 3

If you would smoke too much in one day i would imagine that u'll be very dizzy and you'll probably have nausea. On top of that you'll probably be coughing a lot. You obviously know smoking is not good for you, so why do you smoke? If you're that worried about being sick you should consider stopping the bad habit..

Answer 4

try watching THANK YOU FOR SMOKING. It is a movie. About 2000 (two thousand) cigerettes in 2 hours that is over 28000mg (twenty eight thousand milligrams) of nicotine. You will basically collapse from Nicotine over dose and if you don't get help, within 10 mins you will die.

Answer 5

Well u cannot die smoking cigarettes the whole day. u stupid. besides you cant do it. .but you can develop so many health complications which can lead you to more quickly death.. But then why do you want to die?

And why you smoke so much???????????.. diversify your activities .. keep busy with hobbies and do something to keep your mind away from smoking. .making love with your girl friend for example. Besides have you got one? if no begin the search

Answer 6

I think you could do it if you smoked in a small enclosed space with poor ventilation. The build up of CO2 and carbon monoxide may just be enough (as long as there was still enough oxygen to keep you cigarette burning).

Chances are you would just wake up feeling very sick.

Answer 7

Go into a broom closet and light up exactly 30 packs at the same time---in approximately 45 minutes you will sufficate and then you'll be able to get some relief from this raging ignorance !!!!

Answer 8

Firstly, i wouldnt go to a shop and ask for sigarettes, ask for CIGARETTES...lol

Dont think u can overdose in one day but you can probly throw your guts up...i used to smoke like 20 a day and im still alive, my grandad smoked 45 a day and hes still with us....

Answer 9

I would try smoking CIGARETTES instead.

Don't think you would die same day though.

Don't think its possible to overdose on nicotine in one day.

Answer 10

One if you douse yourself with gasoline. If you mean chainsmoking them I imagine it would have to be somewhere in the hundreds or thousands though in order to die on the same day.
