We all fart occasionally, even if some people pretend otherwise. Of course, there is nothing to be ashamed of. It is an entirely natural process.
Having said that, we usually fart when there is no one around. It’s common decency. You make your way into the toilet or make sure that the coast is clear before breaking wind.
However, there is no such thing as etiquette in the animal kingdom. So animals fart whenever they want, which opens the door to very amusing situations.
Like in the clip below, where we can see a hippo shattering the world record with its farts.
The hippopotamus is a majestic and imposing animal that usually weighs between 1 and 2.5 tons, making it the second-largest mammal on land after the elephant.
In other words, it’s no surprise that their stomachs can contain a lot of gas.
World’s biggest fart
Living in a cage is not fun for anyone. Even if they are well taken care of in most cases, their natural environment is not supposed to have walls constraining them.
Being trapped in a zoo and being watched by humans every day affects animals differently, creating different reactions. Still, the question is whether or not this hippo’s response is the most impressive among its captive fellows.
The people making noise around the zoo can’t miss the hippo’s message—he releases a fart so massive while pointing his ass toward the unsuspecting audience, that you would think he wanted to stink them to death.
