A filter cigarette broken near the filter is hard to smoke with all the smoke escaping. Here's a simple way to make it smoke-able without glue or tape.

Steps

  1. 1
    Break off the filter end carefully.
  2. 2
    Remove all the tobacco from the filter end. This leaves behind a 1/8-inch recess[1]
  3. 3
    Carefully shove the other clean end of the cigarette into this recess using a twisting motion. You should end up with a leak-proof seal.[2]
  4. 4
    Remember that the end (the part that you light up) looks broken, but it won't once you light it up.
