Indian singer Yatin Sangoi hosted India’s first-ever “fart competition” in Surat, Gujarat and expected it to be a blast.
“I farted in the middle of watching a movie with my family and one of them laughed, I said if there was a contest I would’ve won,” said Yatin to Canadian-American magazine Vice.
“That’s when it hit me, while fart contests happen in countries like China, US and UK, we don’t have anything like it in India.”
However, despite it being a historic moment, the competition turned out to be a complete dud, as only three participants showed up to take a shot at the three trophies on offer.
Out of the 60 people who had registered to display their talents, only 20 showed up.
Of those 20, only three took the stage as the participants were reluctant to go on stage as they were possibly shy and had inhibitions due to the presence of news channels, photographers and people.
“We had even roped in a firm to build a special device to measure the fart parameters.”
Regardless of the event’s failure, Yatin said that he plans to continue on with the competition and hold another leg in Mumbai, the city where he was brought up.
He added that this time around, they would install “chambers” to allow participants comfortably flatulate without the glare of the audience.
