I think it would be a great party trick and get me lots of dates. But how did the greats like Petomane produce so much (let alone on cue). Is it swallowed air or a bad diet? Any tips appreciated . I have done a little searching but Wiki etc wasnt much help
So it appears the fart gas was not the result of diet or air swallowing, but a unique ability to inhale rectally. Good luck with that.
Are you sure about this?
I’m pretty sure most people can flatulate without special training.

“Pujol”? Really?
I had a friend in high school that could do this… probably not something he puts on his resume, but he was pretty proud of his “skill”. Later in life he did experience intestinal problems. He thought it might have been related to showing off his skill way too often (often just about every party).
And play the ocarina?
You must know some interesting women.
I’m visualizing a bicycle pump. A helium balloon. Fix-a-flat.
I just read about this guy the other day, and that was my first thought too. Was that his real name, or did he change it? If it was his real name, I wonder if it somehow influenced his choice of career.
Kind of a “chicken or egg” question, I suppose.
I had a sigmoidoscopy recently. (This is when they insert a camera up your bottom, so to speak.)
The medical staff were both professional and polite. They explained the procedure and asked which side I would like to lie on “do you want to watch the picture feed, or not?” (I declined!)
Then the consultant asked if a student doctor could observe the procedure. Naturally I agreed - it’s a real chance to learn,
As it happened, the student was a gorgeous young blonde female. 
She was most reassuring to me throughout. As us chaps do, I fell in love. :eek:
Now bear in mind they needed to constantly pump some air into me to keep the camera going up the passage. (It didn’t hurt.)
Finally my bowels are given the all-clear 
and I start thinking how to ask the student out on a date.
At this point they release the pressure on the tube and I fart…
…and fart…
…and fart…
…for about 2 minutes, continuously.
This blew my dating plan (so to speak.)
Did he get a lot of dates?
The appreciate a good farter! Women of Cambridge
It’s becoming more difficult to distinguish yourself in the field without further education.
Formal training toward certification would include seminars in choosing the right food, controling your bowels and disrespect for others.
If you could learn to “inhale” 151 proof rum–and aren’t afraid of matches–I can guarantee you a date at Carnegie Hall.
Well, first you’ll need a flute, and then… oh, flatulist? Never mind…
well at least they would notice me 
thanx for the replies. I suppose the next question is how does one learn to control ones muscles like that. Do they teach that at pilates?
With a med student? It sounds to me like you missed the opportunity to take advantage of a great icebreaker. She’s seen (amd heard and smelled) plenty of grosser things before, I’m sure. But someone with the balls to ask her out afterwards? That would probably have impressed her.
I think he’ll need one of those little flame guards attached like on the 151 bottles… just in case…
Umm, I would rethink the “I think it would be a great party trick and get me lots of dates” part of your post.
Because I am reminded of an old joke about this guy who could so control the escape of gas that it came out as a whistle. And, he could modulate that “whistle” so as to do our national anthem.
A talent scout, seeing this one night, called a theatrical booking dude at 2 am, saying “You just HAVE to see this!!!”
So he did, and after the performer went through the anthem, the agent turned to the talent scout and said:
wait for it…
“You got me out of bed at 2 o’clock in the morning just to hear some asshole whistle The Star Spangled Banner?”
