Farts on Fire: Difference between revisions

Line 40:

* In ''[[Superhero Movie]]'', Rick's sleeping aunt farts next to a candle, resulting in a huge, flamethower-sized jet of flame shooting between Rick and his girlfriend.

* In ''Joy of Sex'' the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hy-NvoSyhA Blue Flamers] at the drive-in.

* In ''Weekend Warriors'' they settle a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMIObEwzbYI bet] with this.

Line 54:

* A fantasy-version of Rygel the 16th as the Black Knight uses this as a weapon in ''[[Farscape]].''

* The ''[[~~Myth Busters~~]]'' tried it (in a segment they [[Executive Meddling|could not air]] in the USA but did overseas...and the US execs finally relented for the anniversary "Top 25" special). Although the flatulence was flammable, the flame itself was fairly unimpressive and it didn't remove the smell at all.

Although the flatulence was flammable, the flame itself was fairly unimpressive and it didn't remove the smell at all.

* In ''[[The Young Ones]]'' episode Cash, Vyvyan thinks he's pregnant, backed up by his [[Balloon Belly|rapidly expanding gut]]. Turns out it was just gas. Right after it's released someone(I think Rik), lights a cigar, and blows the house up.

** It was Mike. When Vyv started 'going into labour', he left the room because he didn't want to watch, and came back after the fart had filled the air to congratulate Vyv. Clearly from this scene, Mike has ''no sense of smell''.

* [[Stephen Colbert]] attempted this to demonstrate how to fix the oil spill in the gulf. It didn't go so well and we instead got some [[Relax-O-Vision]] as the stagehands put him out. On the bright side, he doesn't need to worry about that waxing appointment anymore.

* A segment of a [[Mind Screw|bizarre German game show]] featured a sort of "word of the day." The clue was as follows: [[Ms. Fanservice|A woman in lingerie]] bends over, and the camera does a close-up of her butt. A flame is brought near it, and the result is something like a Bunsen burner. (The word of the day was, of course, "gas.")

* Happened in the christmas episode of ''[[Bottom]]''. Richie had meade a special christmas snack containing year-old sprouts, as well as other rather nasty and spicy ingrediants. The guys all passed out and when they woke up they were randomly spouting and fire from their asses.

* In the ''[[I'm in The Band]]'' episode "Don't Date the Principal's Daughter", [[Gasshole|Burger]] does this {{spoiler|on Derek after Ash, who pulls his finger in order to make him burp fire}} (because he accidentally discovered earlier that pulling the wrong finger will result in a burp when it's Burger), but [[Epic Fail|fails hilariously]]

* Happens at least twice in ''[[1000 Ways to Die]]''.

* Happens in ''[[House MD]]'', when the team is operating on a [[Hikikomori]] with an intestinal blockage. A doctor goes to cauterize a bleed... "Hey, wait! The gas..." *''FOOSH!''*

Line 81:

== [[Video Games]] ==

* ''[[Mortal Kombat Deception]]'': Bo Rai Cho's Fartality.

* ''[[Mortal Kombat: Deception]]'': Bo Rai Cho's Fartality.

* '''[[Splosion Man]]'' seems to 'splode like this from time to time.

* Chimchar from ''[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]]'' has a flame coming out of its buttocks whenever it's awake.

Line 103:

* In ''[[Evan Mather|Kung Fu Kenobi's Big Adventure]]'', several cans of beans are used by the titular character to blow up Jabba the Hutt, and his palace with him. And that's the least bizarre part of that particular short.

* Accidentally used in ''[[Duckman]]'' to fuel a campfire.

* This is actually one of the many superpowers ''[[Johnny Test]]'' gained as Johnny X as a result of one of his sisters' giving him mutant powers.

* A ''[[Camp Lazlo]]'' short tuned this [[Up to Eleven]] for a hilariously disastrous fuel-air bomb when Lazlo was invited to a ceremony right after a bean-eating contest. The beans caused gas to build up and overload Lazlo's tummy. The moment the ceremonial torch was lit, [[Potty Failure|he let it all go]].

Line 110:

== Real Life ==

* In [[Real Life]], pig farms have to be routinely ventilated, or else they risk exploding.

** The ammonia would kill them before the risk of explosion would. At high enough concentrations, ammonia can blind a person and make them suffer severe respiratory consequences.

* This was given in ''The Book of Heroic Failures'', listing an episode in which a vet attending a cow in a barn stuck a tube into "that end which is not capable of facial expression" and struck a light. The resulting jet of flame set fire to the barn.
