Saxum Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/16/us/man-killed-vape-explosion.html https://www.insurancejournal.com/news/southeast/2018/05/22/490041.htm And we have one of those vappers sitting near me. An exploding vape pen hurled fragments into a Florida man’s head, killing him and starting a fire that burned most of his body, an autopsy report said. The Pinellas-Pasco Medical Examiner’s autopsy report released May 15 confirms the vape pen was responsible for the May 5 death of Tallmadge D’Elia, 38, in St. Petersburg. Such accidents aren’t unheard of: According to a U.S. Fire Administration report , at least 195 electronic cigarettes exploded or caught fire from 2009 to 2016, and while no deaths were recorded in that time, the explosions caused 133 injuries, 38 of them severe.
PromoTheRobot Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 I tried vaping once. I had trouble breathing after 10 minutes. I have to ask what exactly are you inhaling when vaping? (I'm fine now.)

ExiledInIllinois Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 You can get "wet lung" from vaping. It's so gay anyway.

Saxum Posted May 23, 2018 Author Posted May 23, 2018 Been told I have an allergy to nicotine so sometimes walking thru clouds of smoke from cigarettes and vapes causes issues. Never had an issue with cigar smoke interestingly.

Holiday Inn Express last night, but it effects people differently depending on their autoimmune response? In ARDS there is respiratory failure of sudden (acute) onset due to the rapid accumulation of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema) following an abrupt increase in the permeability of the normal barrier between the capillaries and the air sacs in the lungs. ARDS is the most serious response to acute lung injury.
