smoke rings
Exhaled vapor loops
Smoke rings are circular puffs of smoke blown from the mouth, maintaining their toroidal shape as they drift through the air.
Blowing them is a minor skill associated with cigars and pipes, though the trick works with any smoke or vapor: He leaned back and blew smoke rings toward the ceiling.
The physics involves vortex motion—air spins around the ring's circumference, keeping it intact.
