Fart: A Documentary Page #2

---

( violin music playing )

When would you like to start

discussing the said subject?

( chuckles )

The camptown ladies

sing that song

( fart, fart,

fart, fart )

No, it is not.

You fart anywhere.

You fart anywhere.

In front of everybody.

The camptown racetrack's

five miles long

( farting )

I should be able to fart

anytime I want.

( woman laughing )

For God's sake.

- Gonna run all night

- ( farts )

- Gonna run all day

- (farts )

Well, I suppose

you don't expect women

to fart, do you?

Of course. We have

the same pipe works as you do.

I'll bet my money

on the bobtail hag

( fart, fart,

fart, fart )

So what about, um,

in the states,

is there a different attitude

to-- to farting?

( leaves rustling )

Woman:

Some of it's

gonna come back up.

Woman #2:

...And once it gets

to the stomach,

Woman:

It-- from the production

of changing

your food to poop.

Man:

Have you ever heard

of anybody

- lighting a belch?

- ( laughs )

Well, that's because

it doesn't-

Seriously,

it's two different gases.

( woman laughing )

Lighting a belch.

Probably wasn't funny

for the first caveman

that farted on the fire.

( laughing )

I'm just saying.

( farting )

Steve Baxter:

Anyway, going back to

the basis of farting,

it's-- it's a--

a metabolic process.

Quite natural.

So why do people

find it obnoxious?

- Well, the thing is--

- It's rude!

it's a bit

like smoking, isn't it?

When you smoke,

you affect other people.

And when you fart,

you can affect other people.

No, I think it's a problem

of education.

Just people,

society has established

that you don't do this thing

in front of people,

and that's it.

But there are some people

that do it.

Because men like noises.

Or a reaction.

And I have to wa--

I have to wait

to expect--

expect is the word,

I have to expect that my fart

will be a silent one.

- So nobody hears it.

- ( laughing )

That's when your cheeks

start to bulge.

( church bells tolling )

( man farting )

I get really upset

about this. Honestly.

- So you want equal rights

for farting.

- Exactly-- of course.

This is for my ladies

out there

Who have a problem

with their gas

- ( glass shattering )

- Man:
In contrary

to what they would have

you believe...

girls do fart.

Fart is the bodily function

of passing

intestinal gas

also known as flatus

through the anus.

Female interviewer:

Have you heard

of Mr. Methane?

- No.

- Gentleman that does the...

I guess you could give

a little...

Male interviewer:

He's a professional farter.

Female interviewer:

Do you know of any

professional farters?

Uh, no,

as a matter of fact...

No, but do you know

who might pay him?
