Super Serious Question

Would farting make you lighter or heavier?

Lilly_the_Hillbilly

Do you fart helium?

When you smell a fart, are you actually breathing in really small poop particles?

EricJonrosh

Lighter. And pee comes from the balls.

You are welcome! Have fun in your next elevator!

Do you fart helium?

Nope, methane...CH4, which at atmospheric pressure is less dense than the other components of air (O2, N2, CO2) and therefore, like helium, rises.

So.......heavier, then.

I think so. Not by much mind you and of course it doesn't matter I'm just having a bit of fun but yeah, I think heavier.

We need 500 volunteers and some Taco Bell for this controlled study.

False, unless my kids are farting something else. Cuz that stuff sinks into the sofa cushions and lingers. Forever. And...makes my sofa heavier. So I vote for farting = weight loss. For my speshul snowflake "sinking fart" family, at least.

Don't know, but it sure seems to be a handy tool for keeping the machines next to me clear at the gym Swear it speeds my running up too...fart powered.

Not to change the subject here but what about burps?

To me, fart-powered running is accompanied by The Jetsons' hovercraft's sound effect.

MelsAuntie

just gas, so no difference. There ya go.

If farts contain fecal particles and one releases said particles with every fart wouldn't one be getting lighter?

missyjane824

I'm picturing something like this occurring also.

Sadly, this didn't work for me. Just sounded like I was being chased by Donald Duck.

Only if you're naked.

I suppose if you weren't they would just collect in your pants and maintain your weight.

If you can't clear the machine next to ya, you're eating the wrong foods is all. Meal planning is everything./

I think when you burp all that is happened is you have taken air into your stomach and you are expelling it back out. If that is the case it would have no effect on your weight. Unless you were underwater, if you were underwater you would be lighter.

Picture air like it was water. Anything that you held onto that floats would lower your weight, anything you held onto that sinks would raise your weight...if you just have the same medium you are in and held onto that it wouldn't change your weight either way.

Add some protein powder to the mix and you will most likely clear the entire gym

Oh, I meant it didn't speed up my running! *giggles* I've been lucky enough not to have a problem at the gym, although there was one day on the leg press I thought I was gonna be in trouble.

Or the fact that gas & particles that were in someone elses colon & they blew out their *kitten* are now in your sinus, mouth, lungs & probably circulating through your blood stream..
