Farts away! Plane makes unscheduled stop after man won't stop guffing

Размещено
 
An elderly man's flatulence forced his flight to make an emergency stop after a fight broke out over his barrage of bottom burps. Passengers flying with budget Dutch airline Transavia from Dubai to Amsterdam were reportedly put out by the man's continued farting, and asked him to stop.

Did the High Altitude Chamber thing with five or six guys and one "flight nurse" who of course was "Hodst Lips". The guys all sat there with a shitty grins on their faces just ripping them out while the nurse lady-like was holding them in...until the pain got so intense she turned white and let to enough she could have played "Oh Canada" with it.
