Smoke gets in your eyes

It's one in the eye for the anti-smoking brigade.

This smoker has developed a party trick of inhaling smoke through his ears or eye-sockets.

After inserting the cigarette in his ear or eye, he scrunches up his face as he takes a drag.

The man, from the Chinese city of Shanghai, then blows out the smoke through his mouth– and, by the looks of it, through the pain barrier, too.

But, if you are daft enough to want to emulate the dangerous stunt, be warned. However you smoke, it is still bad for you.

Jean King, Cancer Research UK's director of tobacco control, said: 'These are certainly unusual images and he seems to be quite uncomfortable.

'What is more uncomfortable is that two-thirds of adult Chinese men currently smoke which will mean many millions of entirely preventable deaths over the next 50 years in China unless they can be helped to quit.'

So be warned: don't try this at home. Certainly don't try it at home, video it, stick it on YouTube and send me the link. Really don't do that.
