Refused? It’s not always voluntary.

Figures the Apple crowd would be up on things that end up in that manner.

Just the act of studying and tracking abdominal gasses, may cause enough inner tension to produce even more gas!
People who expect to be or like to be worried will chose that app.

Bizarrely enough, this is not the first time an incident of this nature has taken place in an airplane. In July 2017, an American Airlines flight had to be evacuated at a North Carolina airport after a man reportedly broke wind so violently, it caused nausea and headaches among his fellow passengers.

That made me laugh out loud. Violently!

Back in 1977 ate an orange off a tree in Az. Caused me horrendous gas uncontrollably so. I was in a shop farting up a storm when one of the customers mentioned ‘they must be having troubles with the sewage system’. LOL olfactory fun for me at least but it was a bad bout of farting I’ll never forget.

I believe it was Cole Porter who wrote:

Flying too high
With some guy in the sky
Is my idea
Of nothing to do

Pretty much also my opinion of today’s commercial airlines.

So the guy was passing gas. It would have to be quite loud to be heard over the whine of the engines. Unless it was odoriferous as well...

Now, about the Arabs on the plane who eat garlic morning, noon and night... Years ago, I worked with an Iranian lady who, although I am sure she bathed and washed regularly, continuously REEKED of garlic. Being in an enclosed meeting room with her was an “experience”, regardless of how far away I sat from her.

Combine a plate of Foul Medammes with Hummus and Moutabel and you could just about power one of the aircraft's engines.

That’ll teach ‘em not to pull fingers on a plane.

My ‘favorite’ is to cut a few, always look around at another and finally say...

HOLD ON!! Trust me, If I were doing that, I would be proud and own up to it. BUT it is NOT me.... (snicker, snicker)

It does help to have zero compassion and absolutely no use for strangers in an elevator or diving bell.

I’ve brought down five aircraft with my gas.

Over at Delta, they call me “The Ace Of Farts”.

And here I thought a tail wind was a good thing when flying a plane

Gives it a whole new meaning!

I had a girlfriend who would occasionally have a "flatulent episode" that she simply could not control.

Fortunately she had other compensating characteristics.

that the incident had occurred due to "a passenger suffering from wind who was not attempting to restrain himself"


(wiping tears..of laughter..)
Not sure which is funnier, their use of English.. or the situation itself :D

Honestly, sometimes you CAN'T hold it back. It's not like he was creating gas from thin air (or thick?! ;^))..
