Stephen Colbert reviews last night of DNC convention and the Bernie Fart-in

An average fart is made of:
59% nitrogen
21% hydrogen
9% carbon dioxide
7% methane
4% oxygen
1% hydrogen sulfide, the smelly part
An average person farts 14 times a day.

The most farts take place at night while sleeping.

Most farts are flammable because of the methane and hydrogen they contain. 

A fart has reached the speed of 10 feet per second. This is 3.05 meters per second.

One person can produces about 0.5 liters of farts a day. This is almost 0.13 gallon.

If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.

Men and woman will fart equally. Though a study has proven that, when men and woman have eaten exact the same food, woman have more concentrated gas than men. This was also mentioned as a greater odor intensity.

SCUBA divers cannot pass gas at depths of 33 feet or below. [with rebreathers or using pumped air allowing for long periods of time below one atmosphere, there would be a profound fart buildup which would result in what? And does this mean there is more farting in space? And does a fart in space float around cohesively like we see water do?]
