I guess you can see it either way.

There lungs would be more used to smoke than a non-smoker therefore can cope with it better.

But... fire smoke is normally really thick black smoke so will wtfpwn anyone good lungs or not

Neither, I wouldnt imagine. The toxins from smoke in a fire will be different from smoking, but most if it is probably asphyxiation anyway

What a remalkable question indeed. I suppose it might have something to do with what the smoke comprises of. Are cigarette smoke particles smaller than for other types of fire?

Or, if the fumes were toxic (old foam sofa, etc) and a smoker was so used to it he or she didn't cough and splutter - it might mean more inhalation of very dangerous substances.

I think the issue with smoke inhalation is often the heat rather than the smoke per-se (correct me if I'm wrong) and the heat would bake both sets of lungs equally.
