Seth likes cigarettes. Seth likes to light 'em up and ruin his lungs. Everyday, every hour, every cigarette, his lungs become darker and darker. Smoking permanently damages the alveoli in his lungs, making it harder for him to breathe. The alveoli, little air sacs at the tips of his lungs, are built like tiny, stretchy balloons. As he breathes in, his alveoli helps him absorb oxygen into his body, and as he breathes out, alveoli help get rid of the waste gas carbon dioxide.
Smoke damages his lungs so much that his alveoli become less stretchy. This means it's harder for his lungs to take in the oxygen he needs and harder to get rid of carbon dioxide. When his alveoli are damaged like this, he can feel short of breath and tired. His heart has to pump much harder to give his body the oxygen it needs.
Ultimately leading to COPD, heart disease and straight up lung cancer. This picture may look cool, Seth may be cool, and it may look glamorous, but Seth is killing himself.
