anybody ever hear of a herb smoking aparatus called a "Waterfall"?
i never heard of one until my roomates up at school introduced me. But it is a prefered method of smoking now because A) its great when you are in a rush and dont have time to sit down and enjoy a J/blunt/bong and B) it helps conserve weed, but still gets you nice and baked off of one.
i wish i had a picture...but ill try and describe it.
take a gatorade (or similar size) bottle. take the cap off and drill a hole in the cap. Use a ratchet bearing or something similar to act as the bowl. Line the bottom w/ screen if you can. stick bowl device into drilled hole. Then, take the bottle and poke/drill a small hole at the base of the bottle. Pack desired amount of green into the bottle. Usually a small nug does well. Hold hole on bottom of bottle and fill up with water (i guess any liquid works). now screw the cap on all the way. get a lighter and light it so flame is free standing...then take finger off of hole on bottle, and let the gravity pull the water out, and at teh same time pull the flame into the bowl head. watch the bottle empty, then when its filled with smoke, unscrew that cap and hit it like a champ!!!

Sobe Bottles are fucking awesome for this. On the bottom of the bottle, there's an indentation you can punch into a hole w/a phillips screwdriver. Punch a hole in the lid and seal a bowl in there...good times!

We call it a gravity bong. And it certainly takes more time and effort than hitting a bong or pipe.

We used to do the same thing all the time... except with 1.75liter monarch vodka bottles, we would just heat up a metal stem/bowl and melt it into the cap and pop a hole in the bottom of the jug, it was so big it basically took a bowl per hit.... but man one hit was enough!!!

I've always reserved the term "gravity bong" for a top that you dunk into water and lift.
A waterfall bong is what he described, a container filled with water that is drained.
It's a subtle difference.

With a gravity bong, you can push it back into the water and force the hit into your lungs. Not so with these, that's really the main difference. It's all semantics 
We used to take a 2-liter bottle on the lake with us and use the lake as a the basis for a gravity bong.

Then it is just a semantic thing, because we call what you describe in your first post a gravity bong.

Just because it's semantic doesn't mean it's insignificant. This is a debate on semantics.
The thing he describes in the first place may be considered a gravity bong, but it also a waterfall bong.
Perhaps we can agree that the waterfall is a subset of the gravity bong category?

My brother got me busted when I was like 16 hitting the gravity in the bathroom. He said he was gonna rat me out if he couldn't watch with his friend. "You're not smoking my weed fucker" "I just wanna watch"
7 minutes later the bathroom is quite smoggy and their being loud as fuck and my brother whacks his head against the mirror making the wall shake. I grabbed him by the shirt, "Dude shut the fuck up your gonna wake up-" "WILL!? WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN THERE!? YOUR GETTING HIGH!?"
Bam, she takes my weed, it takes me 3 days to find it (but I got some of her NL which was the BOMB DIGGITY!) and the jig is up for me. No more home blazing for me. At least she was nice enough to not harrass me about it till the next morning. She was always cool like that. Just took my greens and left me alone.
But the moral of the story is, I don't like gravity bongs for this reason. Biased? Maybe but I thinks its so much easier to load a bowl and cash it quick.

It is what it is, call it what you will.
We actually sarted calling gravity bongs made from a Sobe bottle "Sobe Bombs".
