Comment on Is it possible to bottle a fart while maintaining its freshness?

  haha, this is amazing. The only thing I would add to that video is to lift the base of the jar out of the water while the rim is still submerged before putting on the lid. Otherwise the jar will have a positive pressure and the fart will explode out when the lid is opened.

  As hilarious as this is, it doesn’t really address the question of whether farts will maintain their potency in a jar, or if they’ll degrade in the presence of air.

  If farts never lost their potency, the entire planet should be unbearable by now.

    The collection method the way it’s described prevents it from coming into contact with air (just water), but you bring up an excellent point I hadn’t considered, which is that maybe millions of years of farts are to blame for the current state of things

  And yet, somehow, I’ve very recently seen a video of someone actually farting into a bath jar.

    So did I haha, but I found this one first and figured it was a better example.
