WEIRD NEWS: Professional Farter Retires
Sometimes working too hard can be bad for your health, even if your job is to fart in a jar.
Stephanie Matto, who starred on the TLC show90 Day Fiancé, has been selling her farts in a jar to her social media followers and revealed that she was earning around $50,000 a week. Each jar-full of flatulence sold for about $1000. But she may have worked a little too hard. She says she recently had to be rushed to the hospital while "working" because she thought she was having a stroke or a heart attack from "overdoing it." She explains that she had consumed three protein shakes and a bowl of black bean soup and just wasn't feeling well.
Doctors told her she was fine and was just experiencing terrible gas pains. They advised her to take gas suppressant pills, which she says has effectively ended her business. More here: (Metro UK)
Scott's Thoughts:
- $50,000 a week? I'm in the wrong line of work.
- Who would buy that? Once you open the jar, it's gone and you're left with an empty jar.
- Was she offering free refills?
- So now when she farts it will just be for relief or recreation.
