The video shows a two-year-old in the Indonesia province who may be addicted to nicotine. The video has been overwhelmingly condemned on the Internet.

Ardi Rizal, the baby, is seen in news video puffing away as he allegedly smokes two packs of cigarettes a day.

Government officials have reportedly offered the family a new car if it can get the toddler to quit smoking.

Rizal’s parents have been quoted as saying the child throws a tantrum when they refuse to give him a cigarette.

His father allegedly gave him his first smoke when he was just 18 months old.
