Smoking and diving

[happy-diver]

today I`d make small revision of my diving-related photos collection and found this nice pic
I thnik it could be topic-fine-fits

I do not know about source of this image, but I suspect it was somewhere in the Egypt

P.S. it is Sharm-el-Sheikh

Check it out man, he's having a smoke with The Most Gracious and The Most Merciful
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

so you are imagining, without the smokes what may have been
get all depressed smoke twice as much an wash em down with a few gallons of grog
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Smoking and diving don't mix. Period. Can we close this thread now?

When I started diving everyone smoked.

Including me.

Most of us are still alive.

But old.

Tell us of your experience

 

[happy-diver]

Yeah, but with that tank you can only go down to 6m cough cough these days, and can't smoke

I think it's convenient that divers who smoke are already adept at breathing from a tank.

Speak for yourself... I smoke and drink beer in between dives and have been doing it for 40+ years...

Everybody knows that smoking is good for you because it only kills off the weak cells in the body giving the stronger cells room to grow and it builds lung capacity and superhuman strength. That's why everyone knows a grandfather who smoked and lived to the ripe old age of 110. What do all those cardiovascular doctors know anyway? It's just a big conspiracy against the big tobacco companies.

Oddly enough many people do many things which are not good for them in the long run.

This is called "living".

It is their decision, not someone else's.

No one is telling you that you aren’t allowed to damage your body by inhaling the smoke from a burning cylinder of paper and tobacco because you believe that’s what “living” is all about.

I personally never smoked...
But I always liked the song so well presented by the great Phil Harris

"Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! that cigarette
Puff! Puff! Puff!
And if you smoke yourself to death
Tell Saint Peter at the golden gate
That you hates to make him wait
But you gotta have another cigarette

Now I'm a fella with a heart of gold
The ways of a gentleman
I've been told
The kind of a guy that wouldn't even harm a flea
But if me and a certain character met
That guy that invented that cigarette
I'd murder that son of a gun in the first degree
Well not because I don't smoke myself
I don't reckon they'll harm your health
I've smoked all my life and I'm not dead yet
But nicotine slaves are all the same
At a pettin' party or a poker game
Everything's must stop while they smoke a cigarette

Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! that cigarette
Puff! Puff! Puff!
And if you smoke yourself to death
Tell Saint Peter at the golden gate
That you hate to make him wait
But you got to have another cigarette

Now in a game of chance the other night
Old Dame Fortune was doing me right
The kings and queens just kept on comin' round
I played 'em hard and I bet 'em high
But my bluff didn't work on a certain guy
He kept on raisin' and layin' that money down
Yeah he'd raise me, and I'd raise him
I sweated blood, gotta sink or swim;
He finally called, but he didn't raise the bet
I said aces full, pal
How 'bout you?
He said well I-I'm gonna tell you in a minute or two
But right now I got to have a cigarette

Now the other night I had a date
With the cutest little gal in the 48 states
A high bred up-town fancy little dame
She said she loved me
And it seemed to me
That things were about like they oughtta be
So Hand in hand we strolled down lover's lane
She was oh so far from a cake of ice
Our smoochin' party was going nice
So help me Hannah I think I'd've been there yet
But I'd give her a kiss and a little squeeze
And she said, "Phil, would you excuse me please
But I got to have a cigarette."

Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! that cigarette
Puff! Puff! Puff!
And if you puff yourself to death
Tell Saint Peter at the golden gate
That you hate to make him wait
But you got to have another cigarette"

Have you read this thread?

Your disapproval is apparent as well.

It is none of my business, or yours, what people choose to do to themselves.
