I have seen smokers who have quit smoking for months make tiny amounts of smoke come out of their mouths by taking a breath, compressing their lungs really hard then letting it out softly. Is this really smoke? If it is then I am in trouble because I don-t smoke but I work around alot of smokers. I tried it one day and sure enough a little smoke came out of my lungs and I could taste stale smoke in my mouth.ya this is true, don-t listen to the first answerer. I have done it and many people I know do it. Im think everyone who is around smoke could do it too, so i dont think it matters how long yu have quit for.My grandson does it and has never smoked I asked him what it was he says it like when its cold outside and you breath out. He pushes hard and holds it in his mouth and lets out a puff of what appears to be smoke but it is not actually smoke.It is actually true, my husband used to smoke and a few weeks after he quit he could still bring up smoke from his lungs if he tried.What were YOU smoking when you -saw- this phenomenon? No, babe: it does not happen. Quit making s h i t up!It-s called water vapor.In winter, particularly, the air in your lungs is moist and warm (very humid) and the air outside is cold. Your exhales therefore contain more moisture than is -allowed- under the laws of physics for the outdoor air temperature, so as your warm (98 degrees) exhale mixes into frigid air, it becomes visible as a small cloud. It looks like smoke, but it-s not.
-Compressing- and -releasing softly- just makes the cloud vapor effect stronger.
