    Worth a laugh. Possibly individual cigarettes could have a measure of time on them, corresponding to the average reduction of life-span associated with each.

    meh. i knew exactly what this was going to look like before i even clicked the link…. probably the most cliche approach possible.

    Agree with Claudulous, a very pedestrian statement to be making – smoking is bad (well, duh). Doesn’t help that he hasn’t even made it, simply modelled it in 3d software…

    re:Daniel

    average estimation by scientists is 1 cigarette equals 5 minutes of life – although it is the type of thing that is very hard to give a suitable answer for.

    I remember hearing (way back in the 90s) of a brand of smokes called simply “death” It was suggested that the light version could be called “slow death” but I don’t think they ran with that…

    As a veteran smoker I have to say that no packaging will ever convince a smoker to stop. It was the taxes and having a child that did it for me.

    These would be so cool with younger smokers. Smokers with money would pay several dollars extra just to carry a pack of cigarettes this provocative too!

    Oh, especially with how into vampires the younger generation is now. Death is cool. This is a money-making design for in-your-face coolness right at the 18-21 year old level. And minors.

    We’ve made it in “Reynolds and Reyner” about 2 years ago. I am not only one who took a part in creation of this concept. So please change the copyrights.

    Fantastic! Unfortunately it is likely that some smokers find it funny packaging.
