Most Weed Smoked

Snoop Lion

In 2012, Snoop Lion literally smoked his weight in weed. Here's how we figured this out:

According to his own account, Snoop consistently smokes 81 blunts a day. Over the entire course of 2012, this comes out to approximately 29,000 blunts. Using the modest estimate of 3 grams of weed per blunt, this amounts to 191.8 pounds of weed. Strangely, that's exactly the same as Snoop's weight. It's physically impossible that anyone else smoked more.
