30 minutes = 1800 seconds
There are 8.2 Billion people
That means there are about 4.5 million farts per second across the globe. And that’s just for humans.
Now do cows and estimate how much methane is released in a single fart and how much warming annually is due to cow farts.
Yeah but steak
But Melon Husk said in the Roe Jogan podcast that the effect animais have on the climate is so insignificant that it can’t even be measured!!!
4.5 million farts per second
now imagine they were all happening in the same place.
you just invented Houston.
Could this wasted energy be harnessed? In this paper I attach mini generators to the most flatulent (self-reported) members of the student body
There was a documentary about this back in the early 2000s, staring Rupert Grint as the scientist who discovered the immense power of harnessed farts.
you ever hold in a fart so long you didnt have to fart anymore? you know what happens?
the gases absorb into the walls of your intestines, into the blood stream, and are aspirated out through the lungs
so let the fart out or youll have fart breath
I haven’t farted in nearly a decade. Not from my butt anyway, (it’s not connected to anything)
How often do people fart? I fart a few times a day and some days not at all. I’ve never tracked it but it’s a low enough number I remember today that I farted once while going to the bathroom when I woke up. I’m off to check webmd to see what’s wrong with me now.
Depends on the day, I’m also leaving in a lot of slack for sleep farting.
I’d say 8-10/day is a reasonable number.
That still puts it at well over a million farts/second
You fart more than that whether you are aware of it or not
That touched me and had me thinking.
If the average fart lasts 1 second, then you’d need 1800 people to record continuous farting.
According to some quick search, an opera may have 50 singers. So with around 90,000 people you could compose a unique masterpiece.
