The kid in the video below is two years old, lives in Sumatra and according to his parents smokes two packs of cigarettes a day. His parents also say he's been smoking since he was 18 months old. And they say if he doesn't get his smokes he throws temper tantrums.For a long time anti-smoking activists have believed that cartoon characters, like Joe Camel above, entice children to smoke. And it looks like it might be working.

I'm thinking the parents taught him how to smoke for publicity or to get in the Guinness Book or something.... this is ridiculous
What in the world....I cannot understand how the parents even allow the child to smoke cigarettes, let alone bring it to light.
Little dude is really smoking those cigarettes in the video, too! Ha.
@Shanel
I had not thought about that angle, you could be right.
@Don
I guess they don't have child abuse laws in Sumatra.
