DBS = Deafening But Safe
Time to lighten up, Bucko. You can always skip this thread, and be no worse for the wear. The rest of us can enjoy the humor of it all, and we’ll also be no worse for the experience...or better, for that matter. Just momentarily happier.
On the set of Conan the Barbarian, with Wilt Chamberlain and Andre the Giant giving Arnold Schwarzenneger a lift.
On the set of The Princess Bride in 1987, Andre the Giant let out a 16-second fart that brought the entire production to a standstill.
In an interview with ABC News, Cary Elwes, who played Westley in the film, shared some of his favorite personal stories of his time on the set.
Elwes said, when wrestler Andre the Giant, who played Fezzik in the movie, "let out a 16 second fart and brought production to a standstill." "It could be heard three counties away," Elwes said with a laugh. "Nobody said anything except Rob, who said 'Are you OK, Andre?' and André replied, 'I am now, boss.'
16 seconds is a loooooooooong time... about the time it took you to read this post, possibly even longer.
Reminds me of being in the radio station studio, manspreading before any of us knew what that was and flicking the bic at the precise moment of eruption. The ensuing blue flame followed my pants leg toward my shoe. For quite sometime it was segue serenade on air as my partner and I laughed uncontrollably for several breaks. It became legend.
I once cut one while driving that forced me out of my car. I mean seriously.
Each writer is acutely aware that he is standing in front of the greatest baseball player of all time, inside the locker room of the greatest baseball team of all time. It doesnt matter how cynical they may be, all of them feel privileged to have witnessed history. Now they are poised to record historys first draft, to memorialize the Babes final words of the season, which tomorrow morning will appear in every newspaper, in every city across America.
The Babe rips a tremendous fart, then shouts, F**k the Pirates!
Back when I was 21 I ate an orange picked from a tree in AZ. It gave me horrendous gas with farts galore I could hardly control. I was in a store and a few farts later one of the customers said out loud, they must be having trouble with the sewer system. Lol.
He who denied it, supplied it!
A friend of mine used to feed boiled cabbage to his bulldog.
An abiding stench.
“Somebody just step on a frog.”
Fart Havoc and let loose......uh ok enough of this
Somebody stepped on a duck.
The mass media needs to know,
which would we wish to read more about?
this momentous event,
or
the D candidates’ next insane rants?
Hahaha!
Great post that set off a wonderful, hilarious discussion that flushed out the prudes and stuffed shirts.
When it comes to things like passing gas, grown men will always revert to their 12-year-old selfs. It is an unwritten law of nature.
