As well as containing pesticides. What makes tobacco so harmful is that the nicotine has been made extremely addictive by the cigarette companies use of ammonia to freebase the nicotine for easier absorbtion. Then whatever else the cigarette has will slowly kill you.

If you wanted to intravenously inject nicotine, you would live longer. On the other hand pharmacologically there is little difference between cocaine and nicotine. except nicotine feels dirtier.
