An Orange? I’ve heard of dried fruit causing immense and deadly gas...but a fresh orange? Isn’t that like farting Pledge?

My husband was a firefighter and said he heard of a run one squad had where the victim died of asphyxiation. He was very obese and had had a meal of cabbage and beans. His size prevented him from leaving his room and the methane gas he released was strong enough to kill him and the emergency people had to wear their air tanks to be able to get to him.

Interesting tidbit: The scientific study of this area of medicine is termed flatology.
