Not really a bong if you bypass the water. That's just a pipe with a decorative water feature.
Edit: actually I just realized this doesn't work at all. The tank connects to holes around the inside rim of the bowl, not the drain. This is just huffing sewer gas while you happen to burn weed nearby.
This guy bongs.
And plumbs.
You ask too much to a weedhead.

"Fresh"
Spiced with mystery sewer gasses.
When I was first informed that this was possible, it was suggested as a way to get breathable air if your city suffered a gas attack or similar.
Gas attack either way.
Nice.
Wouldn't the gas still seep into the sewers in that case?
My friend posited that the amount in the sewers would be likely to be less than that in the ambient air and therefore worth attempting if desperate.
I don't know much of anything about sewers, but you don't really smell things around manholes, do you? (My anosmia prevents me from answering this with confidence.) If not, it would make sense to presume there's some kind of seal on them. If that's the case, the outlet would be the primary inlet for gas. I don't know enough about gas attacks or drainage to say whether that's a problem.
If I'm ever unable to breathe ambient air or escape the area, I'll try to remember to attempt this and get back to you.
The reason every drain has a water trap is sewer gas can be deadly. It's possibly better than guaranteed death by smoke inhalation or terrorist attack, but not by much.
It's not surprising that it could be deadly, but I was always told the reason was olfactory in nature.
Wait ... Explain the ninja turtles!
Ninja turtles are in a storm drain. The cartoon was lying to you.
You have done a much better job of explaining than anticipated and I hereby express my gratitude.
Not all gases. And some gases can be absorbed through the skin, completely invalidating this method. Yay!
Toilets don't get their air from the sewers. There's actually an air hole at the top of the house to let air into the pipes so that they don't produce negative pressure.
Learned that from a plumbing guy who told me that it's actually a noob mistake diy guys often make to forget that hole.

Just grab your toilet tube! Keep it next to your poop knife for easy access.
Bringing a little piece of Reddit with ya.
Don’t forget your poop plug so the devil can’t turn you gay
If I were in a fire and suffocating and somehow had a long tube in a bathroom, I think I’d stick the hose out the window and breathe that air instead.
And if I found myself:
- trapped in a bathroom
- suffocating due to smoke from a fire
- i have a long flexible tube
- no windows in the bathroom AND
- I’m somehow not going to burn to death
Then I’ll just fucking die. It’s fine. That’s such an edge case I’m not gonna worry about it.
You'll likely die before you: a) remember where you put this thing, b) manage to successfully thread it far enough so you're not inhaling toilet water, c) survive the sewer gases. If the window is big enough get through, better to jump.
Regular people, sure. But some firefighters that work in cities with a lot of highrise apartments will keep tubing in their turnouts for this. Super low odds of needing it, but a couple feet of rolled up tubing is lightweight and doesn't take up much space.

That scene bothered me so much! If there's a path to air from the plumbing vent, then those toilets would've been draining water from that room really quickly. If they were overwhelmed by the water, then the hoses wouldn't be useful for breathing
Oh fuck now I will never unsee that.
Exactly. Getting rid of a suddenly huge influx of water is literally what toilets are made to do.
I'll just die, thanks.
I choose the fire
Define fresh.

Yeah but the pipes still have poop smear on them
also you can drink the water in the bowl when you get thirsty
My dog taught me that years ago!
my cat too ^^
So precious!
The air would be straight carbon monoxide at best
Methane flavored.
I wonder if this actually happened to someone or this is the a case of armchair survivalism.
What do you mean internet chud? You didnt use the toilet air gap? I expected that with my VAST knowlage, (ajusts monocle) see as for me i live on the interwebs to expand my VAST knowlage of things (400 year old roman throne squeaks ($5 ikea office chair)) its rather arbitrary that you have never seen this in action? Whats next your gonna to say you dont shoot yourself with pellets to gain bullet immunity or take showers? /S
^THIS IS SATIRE^
To be legit, im kinda intreasted aswell to know if this has actually been used!
Someone else posted firefighters working in high rises are trained on this. I haven't seen anything more plausible.
So many numbers
How about going outside/touching grass
