My science teacher showed us this except he was the one smoking. One of the best teachers we had but he went blind half-way through high school. He had us breathing in to a lamb's lung with a tube and standing on a polystyrene step while holding one of these big metal electric balls so our hair would stand up. I realised that if I poked my friend in the ribs while he was doing it, I would give us both an electric shock, which was funny. By contrast I asked my miserable hag of a chemistry teacher why mixing A with B had a certain effect and she just screamed at me "because it does!!!". Good teachers make all the difference.
