Hoaxing an infrared fart



Uploaded by: wbeaty
Video Description:
"Freeze spray" is cold and looks black under FLIR thermal camera. But propane is invisible. (Propane and methane are basically the same to thermal cameras, in the 3-micron long-IR spectral region.) "Thermal Eye" camera TSC by L3/Raytheon

Sure you can. Hoaxers only survive because we can never be *certain* whether it's a hoax. But nothing is certain. Ever.
So think probabilisticly rather than in terms of certainty. Enough info exists to make a decision.

1. Youtube is a hoaxer-magnet. Automatically be VERY suspicious of fakery.
2. A hoax is trivial: stand sideways and hold a can of freeze spray behind your body.
3. In the fart video, the gas penetrates their pants as an incredibly narrow jet. Is this person some kind of alien? That, or it's just freeze spray.
On the other hand, "GasFindIR" cameras have a narrowband filter and gasoline fumes become visible: youtube com/watch?v=j_NswgZFgzA So was it a real fart? No, because see #3 above.

If you notice, the guy in the "infrared fart" vid is standing sideways and you never see his left arm. He's holding freeze spray. Gas coming through fabric wouldn't come out in such a direct stream. wbeaty, perhaps you should have explained your point a bit more clearly in your vid so people will actually get it instead of you having to explain in text notes.

> perhaps you should have explained your point a bit more clearly in your vid
I thought I already had! I hadn't imagined that any more would be needed.
It's a very simple and obvious hoax, and the lies are exposed if you know two things: cheap FLIR cameras see "black equals cold," and hydrocarbon gas is invisible.
When I made this video, I hadn't noticed the thinness of the stream. That is supporting evidence. But the key fact is: black equals cold (extreme cold in fact.)

Are there any cameras (infared cameras) that project images like those on the movie predtor?

> the movie predtor?
This camera works that way, but if you want a false-color display, you need a more expensive version like this one:

yes but let us not forget the methane comming from the human body is not room temprature but rather a much hotter 98.6 degrees or even warmer sometimes so it WILL show up on infrared camera because it is a large temperature variant.

> much hotter 98.6 degrees or even warmer sometimes so it WILL show up
Nope. Watch the video carefully, and you'll see large amounts of hot gas *not* showing up. Perhaps if the gas were around 200F you'd see white flamelike images.

I think he's talking about the gas escaping from the crack of a human being being at a higher temprature than the average room, or airport. You've got to take the room temp into account too... if the room where the gas is being "injected" into is cold, then the fumes escaping from the hole of indecency might show up as a diffrent temprature...
also, bum joke...

Or more accurately said compare the spectrum of the human body to the colour of the so-called fart. The "fart" is black, while the FLIR is clearly set to a white-hot mode (the bodies of the people are tending toward white). The fart should be in the temperature range of the human body (about 37 C).
