I heard of someone who died in his sleep from his own emissions of methane gases.

A recent episode of Mythbusters tested this particular myth. They sealed off a room and began filling the room with artificial 'gas' to see how long it would take to reach lethal levels. What they found is that it would be impossible to die by breathing in your own emissions, even in an environment completely devoid of air circulation.

No, Metane gas is a Human-Produced Gas. It is impossible for someone to Die from their own Flatulence. Did you know that Methane Gas (Flatulence) is Flammable?

Really? Incredible. Amazing. I would think the sniffee would have a higher probability of kicking the bucket.

Not a chance,
if my husband isn't dead yet, no one will die from flatulence!

Oh, you have got to choose Ron as best answer, that was funny! I was gonna say, perhaps from someone else's, but he was much funnier. Great question! Thanks I needed that.

No, but if it smells bad enough I sure it can kill those around you.
