Fartillery: Difference between revisions

 

An extension of [[Ass Kicks You]], as well as an extension of [[Toilet Humour]]. Also see [[Ass Shove]].

 

* The evil mice on ''[[Black Cat Detective]]''. Some of them had the ability to knock cats unconscious with their deadly emissions, warranting the use of space-helmets.

* ''[[Kinnikuman]]'' had this as his means of flight. He also farts on his opponent at the end of an incomplete Muscle Spark. Not nearly as damaging as a complete one, but much more humiliating. He escaped Black Hole's alternate universe prison by using his farts as a "white hole" counter-attack.

* ''[[Kaiketsu Zorori]]'': Ishishi and Noshishi have strong gas, and Zorori uses this when needed, to power machines and spacecraft. (That's not to say that Zorori's farts can't power spacecraft too, though.)

 

* ''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.

* The Harrowers from the ''[[Hellraiser]]'' comics, and shortly-lived [[Spin-Off]], has Ovid. A [[Our Angels Are Different|cherub]] who serves the goddess of [[Order Versus Chaos|life and chaos]]. One of his powers is anti-demon farts.

* In the Swedish comic ''Krystmarodören'' (about an anarchic [[Anti-Hero]] with [[Toilet Humor|super-crapping powers...]]) the eponymous hero is [[Let's You and Him Fight|tricked into a fight]] with more upstanding hero Balkongståarn, a half-dressed man with a hover-balcony. After using his power to, erh, clogging the vents on Balkonståarn's vehicle, the guy snarfs down a can of baked beans, singing [[Popeye]]'s theme tune, and averts crashing by some massive farting.

* In [[The Beano]] comic strip [[Super-Hero School]] this is Stink bomb's superpower. He uses his farts to beat the badguys.

* In ''[[Savage Dragon]]'', an entire team of bad guys had with body function related powers. One of them was called ''Backdraft''. Do the math.

 

* In the movie ''[[Beavis and Butthead]] do America,'' there's a scene where the two main characters meet their fathers in the middle of the desert. After having a dinner of canned beans by campfire, Butthead's dad turns around and proceeds to fart into the flames, causing an explosion equivalent to a nuclear explosion.

** B&B also utilize burps and farts as (non-lethal) weaponry in their [[Licensed Game|video game]].

* ''[[Despicable Me]]'': "I said DART Gun!"

** In ''Despicable Me 2'', they're used to deliver a 21-gun salute.

* ''[[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.)

{{quote|"One day, while walking with some friends, I accidentally cut the cheese. Well, in my adolescent awkwardness, I blamed it on an old gypsy woman who happened to be passing by. '''Big mistake!''' The gypsy woman placed a curse upon my head. Because I smelt it, she decreed I would forevermore '''be he who dealt it!'''"}}

* The "I wish I could forget watching it" 1985 Israeli movie "Kompot Na'alyim" (Sweet Shoes soup) - aside from being a crime against the cinematic arts - had at its core this "idea". From IMDB: 'When Igor immigrates from Russia to Israel, he is recruited into the mandatory Israeli army reserve service. When his commanders learn the army food causes him to have very noisy farts, they order him to utilise this to defuse mines.' face-palm.

* ''[[Major Payne]]'' knocks out one of his JROTC recruits with a fart after he tries to pull a [[Laxative Prank]].

 

== Literature ==

* Not actually a weapon, because it was most dangerous to those producing it: Philip Wylie's ''[[The End of the World as We Know It|The End of the Dream]]'' has a sequence when negligence about the chemistry of a new precooked food made it give those who ate it high-explosive flatulence. This was discovered when one gentleman, after a hearty meal, broke wind while his back was to the fireplace, and became [[Ludicrous Gibs|splattered]] all over the room's walls. He was just the first such victim....

 

* ''The Power of Kroll'' is the only ''[[Doctor Who]]'' story centred entirely around farts (methane production from a giant alien creature).

** 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.

* Happens in a case of [[1000 Ways to Die]], named ''[[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Gas-Holed]]''. An ass-man proctologist forgets to tell a stripper with a nice ass to not eat anything before operating on her; she eats a HUGE chilli dog and later lets out a big fart during the surgery... accidentally blowing up the cauterizer and burning the [[Dirty Old Man]] doc's face and lungs.

 

* General Pumpkin of Korean Folklore was both [[Cursed with Awesome|Blessed]] and [[Blessed with Suck|cursed]] by this ability.

* There have also been serious or not so serious speculation on whether the milky way was formed from the gas of an [[Ancient Astronauts|Ancient Astronaut]] released into space.

== Professional Wrestling ==

* During her term in Divas of Doom, [[Natalya Neidheart| certain someone]] had this going for her, much to the dismay of some of the other divas, and even a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C07ZLMFYt7A referee] was caught off-guard.

 

== Puppet Shows ==

* When ''[[The Funday Pawpet Show]]'' started in '99, one of the regular features was the "Poot Board" on which it was recorded how many times and which puppetteer ripped one loose over the course of the four hour show. Generally Yappy and JR are the Poot Kings.

 

== Video Games ==

'''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)

 

== Web Original ==

* ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQbKAZN3h7A The X-Lax Men]'', a scatalogical parody of ''[[X-Men]]''. One scene has literal fartillery in the form of ass-fired mortars.

* In [[Dirty Potter]], JK Rowling farted so hard that she "arseblasted" Ron to another dimension. [[Rule of Funny|Don't ask why, she's JK Rowling]].
