Line 46:
* ''Peräsmies'' is a Finnish superhero parody comic. The title hero is a hobo who developed super-powered flatulence after eating irradiated pea soup; he flies by breaking wind, and knocks criminals out by farting on them. The name of the character is a combination of "Teräsmies" (Superman's Finnish name) and "perä" (rear end).
* In one of [[Lobo]]'s stories, he resolves an epic duel with his daughter by eating a can of beans (an obvious Popeye spoof) and setting his fart on fire to create a nuclear explosion.

* A similar thing happens in ''[[Gorsky and Butch]]''. In a scene that is a direct spoof of Vasquez and Gorman's death from Aliens. Except here they use canned beans and a lighter. That, and the aliens are replaced by sheep as a result of an untranslatable [[Visual Pun]].
* The titular Johnny Fartpants from ''[[Viz]]'' uses farts to various effect and can alter the effect by eating different things i.e. a tranqualizer fart made by eating 200 paracetamol or an electric fart to power a life support machine by drinking battery acid.
Line 61:
** B&B also utilize burps and farts as (non-lethal) weaponry in their [[Licensed Game|video game]].
* In the opening of the first ''[[Shrek]]'' movie, Shrek farts in the water, and a fish floats up. Ogre astrology and mythology includes "Bloodnut the Flatulent", whose constellation includes hunters fleeing his stench. Also, when reaching the brimstone-smelling dragon lair...

'''Shrek:''' Donkey, if that was me, you'd be dead. }}
* In their second movie, [[Shrek]] and Fiona fart into their hotspring to make it bubble like a spa.
Line 74:
== Films -- Live Action ==
* ''[[Mystery Men]]'' features the Spleen, whose superpower is superpowered flatulence. The origin comes from the curse of a gypsy woman. (A deliberate [[You Fail Biology Forever]], as even curse-enhanced farts have nothing to do with the spleen.)

** And, naturally enough, he is virtually the only team member whose power is both effective and can be used on demand....
* In the film ''Zoom'' one of the potential candidates for the team is "Jupiter the Gas Giant". He doesn't quite make the cut.
Line 99:
* The (aptly-named) Gasman, a.k.a. Gazzy from ''[[Maximum Ride]]''. Not only can they incapacitate foes with their smell, they're toxic green.
* In the war novel ''SS General'' by [[Sven Hassel]], Porta has a sudden attack of deafeningly-loud farts while they're trying to sneak through the Russian lines.

"Stick a cork up your bum," suggested Tiny.
"Germany's secret weapon," I said sourly. "The human champagne bottle... turns his back on the enemy and wipes out whole regiments at a fart!" }}
* ''The Day My Bum (or [[Cultural Translation|Butt]]) Went Psycho'', and the sequels. Farts, in this, are used by the bums not only as weapons, but also for flight.
Line 113:
** The Slitheen have really smelly farts. This isn't much use to them (it has to do with "gas exchange"), but it is useful to the Doctor, who realizes what species they are from the way their farts smell.
** In the charity spoof episode "Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death", the Doctor and his companion are exploring the ruins of the planet Tersurus, which was inhabited by a now-vanished race called the Tersurons, the most kindly and peaceful race in the universe. They were shunned by all because they used flatulence as their means of communication.

"They discovered fire." }}
* ''[[Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide]]'' has the dreaded Timmy Toot-Toot, who actually refers to his brain-blasting farts as his gift. On one occasion, an attempt to harness them as an alternative fuel source [[A Worldwide Punomenon|backfired]], and forced the school to evacuate.
Line 146:
* The web-based Flash game ''[[Puzzle Farter]]''--well, come on, [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|the title pretty much says it all, doesn't it?]] This one has the "rocket propulsion" brand of flatulence.
* Pey'j in ''[[Beyond Good & Evil (video game)|Beyond Good and Evil]]'' has a pair of Jet-Boots than run on-- well, I'll let him explain:

* ''[[Boogerman]]''. The titular character fights monsters with an arsenal of bodily functions, which of course includes long-range fartillery. After collecting the 'Chili Pepper' powerup, he can also use his flaming flatulence to reach new heights!
* Earthquake on ''[[Samurai Shodown]]'' has a fart attack as his special move...
Line 182:
* After losing a battle, O'Chunks from ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' will blast off using fart propulsion.
** There's also a common enemy, Cherbil, which somewhat resembles a... well, [http://www.mariowiki.com/images/b/b2/88_CherbilCard.PNG just look at it.] It attacks by spraying a gas that causes various status effects from between its... cheeks. The in-game tattle information even alludes to this:

* In the custom built fighting game ''[[MUGEN]]'', [[Family Guy|Peter Griffin]] uses farts as a flamethrower (known as the [[Fan Nickname|Anal Torch]]).
** The goblin character Menelikke does the same in his super. There's also the giantess Delilah who, in one of her alternate versions, has a full screen gas attack.
Line 228:
* Baby Man of ''[[Axe Cop]]'' jets around with his.
* In ''[[The Order of the Stick|Order of the Stick]]'' it has yet to be seen "on screen", but [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0651.html this dialogue] implies that the Monster in the Darkness's farts are quite powerful:

'''O-Chul:''' No, friend. I think that earth-shattering sound did not originate in your bowels, for once. }}
* Dave Johnson's "Flatulene" uses this as its central premise, a heroine with a "brimstone butt". Read the origin story [http://devilpig.deviantart.com/#/d3dp9yo here] (Warning: NSFW)
Line 247:
* In the first ''[[South Park]]'' episode, Cartman's [[Farts on Fire]] were needed to summon the aliens. In a more recent episode, Cartman ''injected apple juice into his veins'' to worsen the frequency and potency of his farts as a weapon against a Muslim couple he was demanding information from.
* In the episode of ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]'' in which they premiere, the Rowdyruff Boys create a toxic cloud of gas to stop the Powerpuffs.
{{quote|
** Likewise in ''[[Demashita! Powerpuff Girls Z]]'' they use noxious gas to terrorize the audience locked in a TV studio.
* On one episode of ''[[Dexter's Laboratory|Dexters Laboratory]]'', Dexter eats a huge burrito and gets a stomach ache. Thinking he's about to explode, he goes to say goodbye to his parents. His dad tells him to "let 'er rip" -- and he does, with such force that the TV behind him is totally demolished. Dexter's parents are ''aghast''.
Line 280:
* [[wikipedia:Le Petomane|Le Pétomane]], a French performer, made his career out of breaking wind. Even performed at the [[Moulin Rouge]], although did not appear in the film. Could imitate musical instruments, blow out candles, and with the help of an ocarina and a rubber tube, play ''La Marseillaise''.
* [[Jeff Foxworthy]]'s "Courtesy Sniffs" bit.
{{quote|
* [[George Carlin]]'s solution to the terrorist problem? The Flatulent Airborne Reaction Team, or F.A.R.T. Three guesses as to what kind of weapons they used.

Line 287:
* Howard Stern doesn't dress as Fartman anymore, but he recreated his alter-ego for the first few minutes of his movie ''Private Parts''.

* In his biography, Andre the Giant is mentioned as having cleared many a restaurant of pesky autograph hunters (the obnoxious kind who won't leave a celebrity alone once identified) with flatulence. Where does a gassy 7' tall, 500 lb gorilla sit? Anywhere he wants to.
* The Swedish word for "speed" is "Fart." Make of that what you will.
