When we release gas (f**t) is it really flammable gas?

Question

so if i bottled it up and lit the bottle would it explode? how does our body produce gas from food? why don't we use it as an alternative gas?

Answer 1

Due to the organic matter in food as it's digested, the reactions form Methane gas and some sulphur compounds (the smell).

This gas is highly flammable and is ignitable as it leaves your lower o*****e. People have been known to prove this and received singed butt hairs.

Methane is also called 'Swamp or Marsh gas' (as it's also produced from marshy land), and from land-fill sites.

Some farmers now produce it from the faeces of cattle and pigs and store it for use as an alternative fuel.

Answer 2

Yes but it would not be very easy to bottle up.

You need oxygen, fuel and heat to create fire. This is why a bottle is unlikely to explode because there is not a steady supply of oxygen to burn with the f**t.

We dont use it as alternative gas because there is not any easy way to collect it. People would have to walk around with tubes up their butt and this wouldnt happen unless obama gets elected.

as food breaks down in our body there are by products that need to be expelled.  

Answer 3

Yes ,I have seen it and one mate first blew out the flame with his f**t and then with the next one he set his pubes on fire  

Answer 4

The gas is highly inflamable and is Methane.

The biogas plants work on this principle where we use cow dung but the principle is same and human waste can also release the same gas.

Answer 5

yes
