Well, about as harmful as regular rolling tobacco. Which is quite harmful. You're getting ripped off - out here I can get a nice shisha for $2.
2 pounds WHERE
I dont know where you get the idea you can get high off shisha though...
I dont know the first bit exactly so i'll let someone else answer that..
But there are plenty on places in London that do it.. Round my area (Ilford/Barking) there are about six - but that's probably because theres a large asian population and it's an asian thing.. I've seen quite a few in Central London too.. I'm sure there's are cafes near Oxford circus and Tottenham court road that have it and I might have seen one in Camden too
Its sort of like a bong, but it has a large section for the tobacco, herbs etc and then about 6 tubes from it, you sit round, toke and chat.
Its a middle eastern thing.
it is a good night out, because the one i go to on edgware road playes the best hip hop, ragga and bashment sounds out at the time
can anyone here do double barrel hoops, or just normal hoops?
an u can get alitttle high, but NO flavour in the shisha head but strong tobbaco, then theres a product the arabs call khbab, u know u can add Masala to the head to add flavour!
or even orange instead of water at the bottom, and for the non-muslims, champane i heard goes down a treat!
Sorry, its an arab thing, believe me!
Actually I believe it is less harmfull than smoking ... its something to do with the fact the tobacco isn't being burnt like in a cigarrette.
You could get a head rush I suppose, if you're not used to tobacco, but you can't get high from it.
It originates from the middle east/south east asia ... so your both right
I was under the impression that authentic shisha is more harmful as the tobaco is burnt using hot charcoal, the fumes of which you also breath in with the tobaco :chin:
The tobaco isn't burnt with a shisha though its 'heated up,' for want of a better expression, using the charcoal. Apparantly this produces fewer carcinogens in the smoke ... I could be wrong, don't take that as gospel but I seem to remember reading about it.
