Let me guess...a passenger reportedly ate several bean burritos topped with sauerkraut washed down with a glass of prune juice.

I have read that B-17 and B-24 crewmembers skipped high fiber breakfasts because the gas buildup would incapacitate or kill them at high altitudes....

Hoo boy, that's a wopper. Those planes weren't pressurized and effectively flew with the windows open. The waist gunners fired through an opening in the fuselage.

Flight attendants have been known to “crop dust” a passenger they are having a tough time with.

Slightly different. I was seated on a flight when this scraggly dude looking like death warmed over and carrying a trench coat came in and sat in the middle of the guys across from me.

Not long into the flight a horrific stench of vomit floated through the cabin. I looked across the asile the the end guy gave me a dying cow look as the scraggly guy got up, tenchcoat full of vomits and walked up toward the First Class bathroom, leaving vomity footprints all the way.

The female attendant came by and sprinkled coffee grounds along his track, and INSTANTLY, the odor was replaced with that wonderful just-brewed coffee smell.

The guy alongside of me woke up and said, "Hey, that smells good!" I told him "You don't want to know."

I always admired those attendant for what they had to put up with.

Why is it that people have that reaction, but it makes dogs want to sniff it all in?

I think for dogs everything smells "interesting" - neither good nor bad.

I guy went to his doctor with a complaint of very frequent flatulence. “The good thing, though”, he told his doctor, “Is that it doesn’t smell.”

The doc gave him some pills and told him to come back in two weeks. When the two weeks passed, he returned to the doctor.

“So, how’re you doing?”, the doc asked.

“Well, not so great.”, he complained, “I’m still farting all the time but now it really does stink!”

“Okay, progress.”, the doctor says, “Now that we fixed your sense of smell, we can start working on why you fart so much.”

Those are great!!! Thanks for posting them! I liked the 12 Days of Christmas and Mr. Methane the best. Mr. Methane had me nearly dying with laughter. Of course I watched several more of his videos and they are ALL hysterical! And watching his videos led to others...the best I found was from a guy who posts under the name GilstrapTV. His aren't songs, but instead are prank sharts. He is the master! Sons of Arkham does similar videos that are also hilarious.

Check out:

Best of GilstrapTV

Thanks again for your post...I've gotten a TON of good laughs out of it!! :)

Incidentally, you can buy the gadget that GilstrapTV and Sons of Arkham use at thesharter.com, lol.

In that video you posted in your related post, it looks like there were two main kinds of reactions -- many people were cracking up laughing about the situation, and other people were just taking off, rapidly fleeing the aisle or area they were in.

That gadget they used is like a new version of the old "Whoopee Cushions".

(There are at least four places that those kinds of noisemakers should probably never be used:   church, the library, a courtroom trial, and a funeral service.   Four places they should probably be used would include:  at boring pompous city/town council meetings, at rallies like the "pink p---y hats" rally, in Morning Joe's live studio audience, and at DNC rallies.)
