Is vaping safe?

There's a lot of things that can cause cancer. Make sure you're not exposed to everything on this list often. Sitting in traffic and breathing in fumes for an hour a day probably causes more harm than vaping a few times a day. They're both bad though so avoid them both if possible. Might as well have an asbestos roof if you think vaping is safe.

Known and Probable Human Carcinogens

This page provides lists of substances and exposures that are known or suspected to cause cancer. To help put these lists into context, some related information is included on how different agencies and groups test and classify possible carcinogens.

At times like this I'm happy not to be young.

Re the anal vaping link....

“I personally prefer the ‘big-Jim’ vaping device because when it’s properly secured in your butt, you can, like, ride around on your board while vaping without worrying about carrying it around. Its effects mimic that of weed when transmitted rectally so it is pretty much a legal alternative to pot, which is pretty dope bruh,” said Robert. “My ass is sore after a while, though, so I don’t recommend having the butt plug vaping thing in for more than a couple hours.

Who cares

WAT ??

can they make a human centipede like thing

Been in that situation. I declined the invite.

I truly hope you phoned a friend....to help out the poor lady.

Anything other than clean air going in to your lungs is unsafe but vaping has done wonders to get many, many, many off of cigarettes. I DGAF what others think of people vaping, if they are getting off cigarettes that can only be a good thing.

Was the only thing to end 26 years of smoking misery for me.

Is eating safe - depends on what and how much you eat

Is drinking safe - depends on what and how much you drink.

Same goes for vaping.

The anal vaping and boozing thing ended this thread for me. Have a nice Friday, everyone!

Depends on the individual species.

Nothing that enters your lungs except clean atmosphere is safe , vaping is presumably more safe than smoking BUT you are the guinea pigs for the industry as we do not have the same amout of info that we do for cigs ,vape or cigs , both are hazards .............only one is an unknown.

Good luck finding clean air in 2019. An angry Swedish girl would like to have a word with you if you dare to disagree.

Sweden’s air quality is probably the best or at least top 5 in the world - I’d be angry too if someone had to mess with it.

And my bad. Poison is poison. I was referring to venom in error.

There's a difference between going bungee jumping or smoking and increasing your risk of getting cancer which you're stuck with for life. Both increase your risk of death but if the options and risks were clear, people would always choose the bungee jumping.

So you are saying people would choose bungee jumping over smoking?
