Well..........
Just think about it? Search it on google or i can tell you that have you ever seen shows where people are dying or coughing or cant breath when there is a fire? Well that is because the smoke doesnt let them breath. That is kind of the same as smoking. When you smoke you breath in smoke which is of course bad for you. Simple isnt it! LOL :)

Just picture your lungs like a vacuum cleaner. When the filter is clean, the vacuum cleaner really sucks hard. When the filter is plugged with dirt, the vacuum cleaner barely sucks. In other words, when your lungs are clean, your body will receive all the oxygen it needs. When your lungs are clogged with smoke, your body will be fighting to get enough oxygen to survive. Your choice.......

Besides nicotine which is a poison cigarette smoke contains several toxic chemicals. One drop of nicotine injected into the bloodstream will kill you.
The average cigarette contains the following toxins..acetaldehyde (1.4+ mg) arsenic (500+ ng) benzo(a)pyrene (.1+ ng)
cadmium (1,300+ ng) crotonaldehyde (.2+ µg)
ethylcarbamate 310+ ng) formaldehyde (1.6+ µg) hydrazine (14+ ng)
lead (8+ µg) nickel (2,000+ ng) radioactive polonium (.2+ Pci)
Yum!
Nicotine is also a powerful insecticide.

It is not so much the smoke that is bad it is all the pesticides and insecticides that they use to protect the leaves when it is growing.
In order to have beautiful leaves they spray it constantly with pesticides and insecticides that end up in one way or another in the plant and then in the lungs.

Cigarettes quite literally suck the life out of you by robbing your body of much-needed oxygen. It "cancels" out any vitamins/minerals such as calcium making your bones brittle. It replaces these nutrients with deadly toxins which have negative effects on the entire body.

you fill your lungs with smoke and hundreds of chemicals which in larger ammounts would kill you outright, and you starve your body of oxygen, and the tars in ciggarettes actually deposit themselves in your lungs like black goo that keeps your lungs from being able to take in enough oxygen at a time and eventually make your lungs brittle which makes it almost impossible to breathe.

You must be fairly young to have to ask that question.
It ruins your lungs and you need them to survive!!
Go search on google and you should be able to get the info you need.

the tar in the cigarettes clings to the lining of your lungs, and hinders the intake of oxygen. for one.
