    What is third hand smoke and does it even exist. Heard the term from a relative, so just wondered

    That’s the term being used to describe the invisible yet toxic brew of gases and particles clinging to smokers’ hair and clothing, not to mention cushions and carpeting, that lingers long after second-hand smoke has cleared from a room. The residue includes heavy metals, carcinogens and even radioactive materials that young children can get on their hands and ingest, especially if they’re crawling or playing on the floor.

    @ed - Where's your answer?

    Hi, Third hand smoke does exist, it is smoke that a person inhales, from other people smoking, even when your not smoking.

    It sounds made up to me. Second hand smoke should catch all smoke or contact after the smoker.
