Daily Mail UK: Hookah fumes contain killer chemical benzene...

Researchers have found 
that hookah smokers are 
also breathing in a nasty 
collection of toxic 
chemicals, not the least 
of which is benzene. Due
to its high octane number, 
benzene is percentage 
component of gasoline. 
(During my high school 
summers, I worked in a 
plastics factory and 
transferred benzene-
based liquids into 
smaller containers. 
Twice during this task, 
I collapsed, dizzy as could 
be from the chemicals. 
Even when I smoked, 
didn't trust hookahs- 
something about the 
overwhelming nature 
of the fumes.) Dangerous 
stuff to breathe...
