Dope smoking is often seen as the acceptable face of illegal drug use, and it's easy to assume that smoking marijuana is really pretty harmless. However, a new study suggests that the dangers may be even greater than previously thought.

Regular marijuana users have double the risk of getting testicular cancer, and they seem to be particularly susceptible to the most aggressive form of the disease.
