    I personnaly hold in my vape hits 15-30 secs and normal smoke 5-10. I'm just saying weather or not you were right your science was completely wrong.

    "The human brain can last only 4 to 6 minutes without oxygen before permanent damage occurs, according to California State University. In the event of a stroke or other event causing even short-term oxygen deprivation, prompt treatment is critical to prevent damage to the brain."

    Before you get to that point your body starts redirecting oxygen from your muscles to your vital organs and feel a burning that is basically your body calling out for oxygen. Nobody here is holding their hits that long. Most of the people on this thread are talking about holding their hits for a matter of seconds. Not nearly long enough to cause brain damage.

    I was using laymen's terms in my first comment. I don't hold my hits longer than 30 seconds either most of the time.

    You really only need to do it for 5 seconds max to get the full effect.. I know some people who wait like 30 seconds, it just makes me laugh.

    You probably heard it from Pineapple Express, but they said it as a joke.

    So is it dangerous to hold your breath when swimming? Anything under a minute isn't unhealthy as far as oxygen levels go. Sure you will absorb more tars, but you also absorb more THC.

    Works for me, I do it. I hear tar settles in that way, but ah fuck it.
