Thanks Tom! 
I guess that my reaction to this is that it is one of those demonstrations that it so "dry" and scientific as to be easy for most smokers to distance themselves from, and to end up finding rather odd and laughable.
And if I am going to nit pic the presenter's experimental technique...a human being doesn't continuously hoover down one cigarette after another, and our lungs obviously don't apply rapid boiling to concentrate tar in the airways, so the end product is probably chemically and visually very different than what he demonstrates.
But I suppose that such details of fidelity are entirely beside the intentions of the video's creator.
