Rygel
was a character on the TV series “Farscape.”
He was from a race known as Hynerians, which had the unusual
characteristic of farting helium whenever they were nervous. JT and I were discussing this one day and
wondering what it would be like to have this issue in real life, especially if
you released it through silent flatulations.
There would be no hiding it or acting like it didn’t happen, because
suddenly everyone around you would be speaking in a high voice!
