A British inventor has undertaken his biggest project yet - firing a fart across to France.
Colin Furze, an engineer and inventor, has more than 500,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel where he superpowers vehicles such as mobility scooters and bicycles, and generally makes a lot of noise and explosions. Taking inspiration from people who say they would hate to be his neighbour, he came up with a "brilliant idea" of making some noise that could be heard by Britain's cross-Channel neighbours.
The Metro newspaper reports that he has constructed a loud pulse jet which, because the noise it emits sounds like a fart, he hopes to install in a giant model of a bottom, before taking the whole thing to the cliffs of Dover and pointing it towards Calais.
