New WIP vid: Mining Asbestos to make cursed cigarette filters

Added 2025-08-27 09:24:54 +0000 UTC

Hey everyone! As promised, this is a WIP video that didn't quite work out so I've put together this simple video that shows a more raw perspective of everything filmed and the progress so far, and I haven't given up on this. The footage and editing is rather basic, especially because of the difficulty of filming with a flashlight. The idea was to obtain some Asbestos from a mine, and use it for something odd or interesting. I looked into some weird old products, and found something called a Kent cigarette made with an asbestos filter to remove toxins. Wild product I know.

I figured this would be perfect for a video. However, finishing this project with a real functional cigarette made with an asbestos filter might prove quite challenging. Any other ideas of what to make with asbestos is welcome too!

Side note: You may have seen one of my old posts about exploring this mine as well, but I've decided not to spoil the results for the newcomers lol. And apologies for the voices behind masks making it difficult to hear. We were wearing mics, but the cameras audio was weirdly better. Had to keep ourselves safe with masks! A future polished version if this works out would have subtitles and better audio balance for hard to hear parts.
