But it is isn't it? Heat gun burning the bud up top, glass stem down from there into the water, and he's pulling in smoke.

One point: That heat gun, by Steinel, heats from 120F to 1050F. Source: I have one just like it. That's not smoke, it's vapor, I'd wager. Opaque white smoke would fill the area above the liquid if it were burning, but it looks pretty 'see thru'. I think the temp is well below 454F.

Yes, he's definitely taking a rip.

Yep, it's standard pharmacological research procedure after all.
