So yeah, as the title says. If you fart do you become lighter because you loose mass or does the loss of buoyancy make you heavier ?

    You get heavier, totally anecdotal evidence on my part but I’ve stepped on the scale in the morning, let a glorious one rip, and the number went up by 0.1.

    I am not saying that I gained 0.1 lbs, just that afterward the scale rounded it up instead of down.

      Sounds like solid scientific research to me, I will now carry this nugget of information as an absolute fact.
