How to setup a Water Pipe(Argileh/Hookah/Sheesha)

My dad George and I got a new Argileh and we decided to make a How To video for you guys who are curious about getting one or curious as to what they are.

[@AbdulAleemShekhani]

Much respect to George, taking out the patience to do this with his son :]

[@bradHILL19]

Top blokes, hate when people are quick to criticize races. Clearly some good blokes.

[@yatahe1916]

My son just sent me one from Qatar (He is stationed there). Same size as in video. This video was exactly what I needed to get me started! Thank you!

[@TheNightRida]

dude, you've got the coolest dad ever :D

[@Crazy1991Rocker]

have fun smoking.I also have one here in Romania.We call it "Narghileh",With "N".(Narghilea - in romanian).Good job;)

[@Martinvdzzz]

your dad seems cool , i havent finished watching the video but just by the way he says "hullo" he seems cool.

[@TheOpelkoenjas]

Getting me one next week, to help me quit smoking. I tried a water pipe a few days ago with my son, and it taste wonderful. I didn't grab a cigarette for a long time. Of course, dedication will be needed, since I've been smoking for 32 years now. But I think this is the best way to start quiting my bad habit. ;)

[@NavyAviation2016]

I have that same hookah; it's a nice little guy, gets the job done.

[@piratej924]

Thank you! I just got one (same one as this) and I am having issues with the foal and coal so this helped a lot!

[@LiamYM]

dude get a wind cover if your smoking outside youll get a longer smoke and it will be thicker also do as many holes as possible just make sure there not too close together and one more thing that gives u thicker richer smoke is let the coals burn for about 5-10 minutes before taking a hit and make sure the coals arent black so its glowing

[@roialblu]

thanks man I just bought my shisha from the persian shop around the corner. i think these are great and excellent for bringing people together. I learned about these during my time in turkey. cool video man cheers!

[@NPCTE23]

my dad would never let me smoke a water pipe! gr8 dad! and gr8 tutorial! thnx guys!

[@alyssalane2912]

Your dads badass!

[@KrasseOdaVonBayern]

I love your father! He reminds me of the old German men from my home town in Germany

[@cazstar1989]

I bought one exactly like yours in Tunisia last week and i loved using them out there, althoughi had no idea how to set it up myself ...but i do now! THANKS! :)

[@itsoktodance94]

your dad smokes like a boss, GO GEORGE

[@Molelyfe]

i just bought one yesterday .. here in toronto everyone has a hookah i swear ( thats what we call them hear , hookah's) The brand of the tobacco we use is called ' Al Fakher ' it's quite popular. The best flavors for me are the grape with mint, lemon with mint, or orange by itself. I'm going to set mine up right now.. Cool vid, You guys like it strong huh? Instead of big holes i just put alot of tiny ones and for me this is the ideal strength ..

[@JeppeGutt]

Your dad looks extremely cool with the mustache and the scar on his head.

[@ibrozdemir]

in turkey we call it Nargile so i guess it is same as Argileh

[@agegood1634]

Thumb's up for Lebanese people and their "Argileh's" :)

[@cr199]

I recommend putting ice in with the water. That way you get a nice cool smoke and it doesn't burn. It's optional though.

[@Matureblood]

Your dad's a Pro.

[@pseudosynysterX2]

that thing on the end you think is for airflow is not. it's a purge valve and has a metal/plastic bb in it so air isn't flowing through it. it's purpose is for purging harsh smoke by blowing into the hose.

[@HugoRez]

putting vodka instead of water is also nice (ok, the taste sucks, but is pretty cool to do like before getting drunk)

[@NicholasYanni]

@stekt0 yeah i would say that would be a bit dangerous to do it on the tobacco direct. Always use foil.

[@rexrulator]

So you turn the lid at the side to make the smoke get stronger? Thank you for making a "how to" video you are helping a lot of people since the waterpipe apparently do not come with instructions. Many hugs from Lollo

[@TheKomentor]

I'm in India and you won't get to see many fathers and sons smoking together here. It's like disrespecting your dad. You two are cool though.

[@andri1923]

Got this little one like that from Egypt yesterday, epic thing.. If you go to egypt, you should buy it because it is really cheap there, like 5 euros

[@mintveal]

Cheers, I went on hols and did loads of Sheeshas in Egypt and came back with all the stuff. But didnt use tin foil and just had the tobacco stuff mixed in with the charcoal, it was disgusting.... but will give this a go. Thanks!

[@NicholasYanni]

@Clubing2012 not sure but it is available from many tobacco stores and middle eastern shops.

[@MaghoxFr]

Your dad is cool, not many words and awesome moustache.

[@HookahSmokingKings]

Fellow Lebanese!!! About time! Kifak? I also have Lebanese relatives in Australia. I am also going back home next year for a month. Rating Thumbs Up and Subscribing. ~Blu3Pois0n

[@sverigevarberg]

Dad: Okey lets go you start, Son: no you start ,Dad: you start, Son : ne ne you do it xD

[@Dutchvideosable]

son: this is Jorge, Say hallo Father: Hallo Son: Hallo (Same Hallo :P)

[@taytayvonne]

haha, your dad's adorable!

[@moonshiry]

hahaha your father should smile more =D that was a nice smile at the end

[@NicholasYanni]

@thunddude i'm definately gonna have to disagree with you, there are some that used to be like that but we have found a really good one and act as well as normal coals. my dad however does only like to use the coal thats being earthed. i'm not too fussy and quick light can be just as good.

[@hibo911]

Just bought one of these and was not sure how to set it up,so thank's for this video.

[@TheLovroB]

so you must not inhale it? you just smoke it like a cigar?

[@biertijdbroeder]

a tip: dont put the coal on the tin foil while its stil sparkling, then there come heavy metals in the tabaco witch ruin the flavour

[@gearsofwar458]

@thenickshift milk makes the smoke thicker but its harder to pull so put half water half milk.

[@glayo_]

Worked perfectly. Thanks :)

[@xocaityox]

Hi George! I liked when I had argileh, it's not as strong as smoking and it looks cooler

[@thunddude]

one quick light coals are not very good. second if you are putting in the while it is still sparking on the bowl you WILL get a quick light after taste. Third if the coal is not red all the way through you will get a large amount of CO which can be deadly.

[@crazybiyatch23]

I love use thank u! It's my first time setting one up :D

[@HugoRez]

@gearsofnl you just have to make sure all smoke will passes through the water.

[@MeatEater96]

It's good to be Arab.

[@DanielRuzhitsky]

Same hookah and coals as me that was purchased in Ukraine

[@LuisStupignan]

go an tell ur dad he's got a handsome son... I'm lebanese too, my 7abibi gave me one two days ago, such a nice gift from someone who's not muslim, or have any relation to our culture :D

[@NicholasYanni]

@johnleehancong just about an inch over where the pipe starts in the base.

[@agent24]

So funny because the Egyptian man we all know and love at our local shesha is also named George

[@NicholasYanni]

@Wackysquirel there are many different names for it.

[@kabadayi333]

@EBPOJKEN the coals are in your tube so you have to clean your tube and when u used your hookah clean all parts

[@NicholasYanni]

@MsSmithandwesson bit over half to 3 qts, dont ever fill all the way. :)

[@jk4lyfe5639]

@fckiss if the smoke is not that thick you can try adding more shisha to the bowl and making less holes in the tin foil, basically just keep trying different things like more water, less water, till you get the desired amount of smoke(adjusting the water level was just an example of something but it will not affect the amount of smoke unless you have like no water. try decreasing the amount of holes you put in the foil

[@lukeslobbies]

I like something like that for my gaming room, my sister just ordered like 10 new hookahs for our hookah bar in my backyard but there big so I was wondering what size this is so I can order one ASAP it looks 11inch but not sure

[@023wazup]

you have a nice dad. I want I had one like you.

[@mzglamour23]

Great tutorial!!! Thanks!!!

[@kadirderda]

its nargilah in turkish

[@thunddude]

@thenickshift well it is good that you enjoy it. I am a fan of natural coals. Also i am a huge fan of apple flavors mainly da or double apple.

[@handlemeifyoucan144]

Lucky son cool dad

[@MrFUCKSNITCHES]

fanks man u really helped out ignore all the nasty comments

[@TechMeched]

I'm Lebanese in America thanks broooooooo!

[@NicholasYanni]

@alekscee loose let air pass through nicely, gives a smooth non forced effect.

[@QuInT142]

Im persian and oh my god its good, Try the tobacco with pomegranate taste

[@hookahpro123]

I'm looking forward to see George get casted in the Godfather remake!

[@crazy1whodgetshot]

your dad is awesome.

[@r0zar0za]

ur daddy is adorable & i luv ur aussie accent :)

[@amini777]

in iran we call it ghelyoon. mint and peach is the best mix

[@NicholasYanni]

@jmiguel305 yes try using more and less depending on what feels right for you.

[@maddiebands]

i'm lebanese my great grandfather let me try hookah when i was 9

[@alekscee]

should I pack the molasses down tight in the ceramic holder or have it on there sorta loose?

[@jk4lyfe5639]

@The357vs911 depends, sometimes it does/can if you smoke a lot/make you feel a little lightheaded. also depends on the flavor.

[@slaves98]

i dident got annu instructions to but when i was in turkey yhe showed us how to use it (Y) but this was good

[@bbryans21]

your dad looks bad ass with that mustache !!

[@akislol]

That was a perfect video! Thanks a lot man :)

[@kay4dee08]

gotta love the headspinss. go for double apple tho man, lasts longer nd has stronger flavour

[@junkano]

i dont agree with putting only 6 holes in the aluminium, it is best to put a lot (small) holes rather than a few big ones.

[@deryckere2]

the stick that comes from your tabacco, does it hang in our out the water?

[@NicholasYanni]

@wehaveaids i get it from my local tobacco shop, any should sell them.

[@austina9814]

hey from where you are cause Argileh Sheesha it's in Arabic we call it like that :P from where you are btw i have alot of Argileh :

[@scuffieduffie]

@EBPOJKEN Do you run water trough your hose to clean it? If so, it can be rust parts if you dont have a washable hose.

[@ecw1248]

hey are you guys living in Australia, because your english is great.

[@metalgoth34]

I dont know if this is a rumor or not.. But is the smoke nontoxic? like no nicotine in it and such?

[@PersianStylBoy]

have a good times with ur dad

[@joakimskare]

do you get more smoke when the valve is all closed or a little loose? i have the excact same pipe btw :P

[@iRawrJan]

I got the same hookah but a blue one ^^

[@DCruncch]

Just got mine today (Y) , never knew you needed coal doe (N)

[@Yontie]

i've got the exact same one today lol

[@ealom1]

I has learn hw to set up Shisha n it's look gd n I never use Shisha before but I want to do this

[@NicholasYanni]

@MrTorontoPolice it will still work but it is now not adjustable.

[@BannerOfBlasfemy]

does it go the same for smoking hashish or weed on this? or has to be arranged other way?

[@yaforever24]

You know that little part on the side that you can turn? You said you can turn it to change the strength? What do you mean by that. Is it stronger when loose?

[@studentoflife01]

Wow! You made this video so naturally. I would have never guessed that this is just such an okay thing. In America we call it a hoca, and it is illegal to sell in most states because it is considered drug paraphernalia. My little brother got arrested for buying one.

[@NicholasYanni]

@thepwningeggnog no it needs a constant type of heat. so coals are the way to go.

[@eccourenix]

@thenickshift, its same shit, i think just a little bit another taste, and of course much more smoke, if you put ice on it, extra smokeh! :)

[@charliefox4554]

Coolest dad in Australia

[@NicholasYanni]

@andigasmask no the tobacco is required to do this correctly.

[@xDAyaShameimaruxD]

just bought a hookah, i know how to assemble it and smoke it, just wanted to ask, how is the best way to do the holes?

[@NicholasYanni]

@tyton1234 very small i'm not too sure but i have a 3 foot one now, with two hoses.
