The history and humor of the fart

Of course I do.
Then how'd you know it was me?
We knew.
I don't know what you're hearing, but it's not me.
Uh-uh.
Denial.
You normally don't raise your hand.
( laughs ) - That was me.
- ( fart noise ) Yes, I... I mean, I don't announce it, uh, obviously.
( blowing raspberries ) That was me.
( blowing raspberries ) That was me.
Actually, sometimes I do announce it.
Uh, but, I mean, it depends on the company, I guess.
Sometimes I just-- you know, I sneak them out... Same as everybody else does.
Female interviewer : Right. Yeah.
( fart noise ) Um, originally, when I started, obviously, I discovered this ability to breathe, um-- with the bottom end.
I'm just gonna give you one for level.
Yeah?
( farting ) ( laughing ) That was, uh, that was George Michael, that was.
( laughing ) A careless whisper.
I was introduced by Kelsey Grammer-- Fraser of Cheers... Two, one... ( laughter ) ...you know, and he gives a monologue and then he's with a lady actress, um, I think her name was Brett Butler, and she says, "Oh, that farting guy was awful." You know, his anecdote is... it's the first thing we ever laugh at in life, and possibly the only thing we can always laugh at.
I-- I think-- I think you know what's going on here now.
Um, then it becomes less funny and, uh, adults who are-- who aspire to be more sophisticated and cultured tend to try and distance themselves from that kind of humor.
Uh, but it's like any taboo, I suppose, uh, it always has the potential to resurface in humorous ways.
And so, it always tends to have a-- you know, a-- a humorous potential farting.
