Late-game fart wreaks havoc on Philadelphia 76ers bench
Mashable ^ | April 19, 2019 | Marcus Gilmer

The Philadelphia 76ers just learned that a high-pressure situation like the NBA Playoffs can cause the body to do weird things, like dropping stink bombs on the bench.

Midway through the fourth quarter of Thursday night's game between the 76ers and the Brooklyn Nets, TNT's camera cut to the bench for a glimpse of Philadelphia star Joel Embiid, who was out with a knee injury. But instead of finding Embiid and teammates deep in thought, the camera found a group of players reeling from what was probably one hell of a bad fart.

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.

NO discussion of epic public flatulence can be complete with paying homage to Andre the Giant, he of the 119-beers-in-6-hours record...

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.

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.

A friend of mine used to feed boiled cabbage to his bulldog.

An abiding stench.

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.
