Unlike a short fart effect, the long version became popular online because its exaggerated duration turns a simple gross-out gag into a running joke. It circulates widely on soundboards and short-form video apps, where creators reuse the same clip for pranks, parodies and reaction edits. It is often grouped alongside other fart jokes like bark&fart and Le fart de Simon, which use the same basic humor in different ways. Its appeal has lasted because flatulence humor is instantly understood, needs no context, and can deflate almost any serious or dramatic scene.
