huge bongs?

I am not trying to be cute here, I'm asking a serious question.
I see these huge bongs, three feet or whatever, I was wondering what the difference is between a smaller one or a huge ass bong? I don't use bongs, I've only done it once, I like my pipe. But just wondering what the difference was?

Its a change in air pressure, and a longer pull, plus the smoke has alot more time to cool before it gets to you which ultimately lead to a smoother hit. I like the occasional didgeridoo, but the fact it takes ages to pull and you have to use so much breath makes them a special occational smoke for me, that's my friends 3ft
Edit: and my usual bong

I like shorter bongs. I have a 11" beaker type. Glass on glass set up is the best, nice clean rips with no air leaks at the downstem.
Two reasons why I don't like the huge bongs, it takes too long to pull, and its just a waste. I can pack mine nice and tight and get it around the circle a few times. I load like 3 bowls and everyone is done (excluding me). Not a lot of people I know can handle the smoke from a 3 footer. Ash catchers do help though.

The major thing to consider with a larger bong for me is just sheer volume of smoke you pull. My wife can't even think about clearing my (now confiscated) 2 1/2 foot beast even though it had a double perc and percolated downstem. Also, I love bong rips, but I use them sparingly because my lungs HATE me after a night of pulling thick swirling clouds.

I like keeping my bongs under 2 feet
I would love to get a 4 footer with a skinny chamber but they are hard to find and one with a big chamber requires too much lung capacity

i would likely fail smoking a bong much over a foot and a half, would just be a waste of precious smoke. and safely storing anything over 2 foot would be a hassle for me anyway.

I don't like big bongs, when I'm smoking by myself I like to pack my bowls a little small so that I know that I'll cash the bowl in one hit. I hate seeing the smoke just float away while I try to decide whether it'd be better to hurry up and exhale so I can take another hit or just keep it in and take my time..
But basically, bigger bong, bigger potential rip. I say potential because you might waste most of your lung capacity before you can even get to the smoke, or you might just not have the lungs for that big a bong. I prefer to pace myself and waste as little as possible personally.

I'm pretty positive my lungs couldn't take anything bigger than two feet.

I like small compact bongs. 18 to 20 inches. Single perc'd with an AC.

And clean. Gotta be super clean. New water once a day, rinsed out once a day, cleaned once a week.

Glad I have my medical card. Where if I am out I can charge it
3 more weeks though until I don't have to buy any for a long time.
