The large pipe is called a điếu cày and is a long cylinder made from a single piece of bamboo or plastic, filled with a small amount of water at the bottom to filter the smoke.

The local unrefined tobacco, thuốc lào, is rolled into a tight little ball, placed directly on top of a small bowl before being lit.

Thuốc lào is actually a highly potent, unrefined species of tobacco, Nicotiana rustica and its nicotine content is up to 9 times higher than standard commercial cigarette tobacco.

Because the nicotine dose is so massive and hits the bloodstream instantly via the water pipe, it causes an intense, immediate head rush, extreme dizziness and temporary loss of motor control.

First-time users or tourists frequently faint, fall off their stools, or vomit.

If you don’t cough, you don’t get off.

“Gotta cough to get off” was how we always said it.

I’d hit that for weed but not tobacco.

Fucking hilarious. I like how they had the trashcan all set up right in front of him.

Tobacco in a bong just doesn’t seem right. Get that boy some proper reefer.
