You've never heard of this before? Being around Cheeto, I'd figured the reference would have come up once or twice.

I've kinda wondered whether it would be possible to light bovine farts...and if said ignition would incite a stampede.

if inhaled, cow farts eat the lining of your brain

LOL DAMIT!

The trick is not to light the hairs on fire!

The act of fart lighting is performed by using an opened flame such as a candle or a cigarette lighter. There are web sites on the internet devoted exclusively to explaining proper lighting techniques.[6] Common problems reported are severe and painful burns around and about the anus. Reports of serious burns to body parts are not uncommon but clothing helps to protect one's skin. Wearing pants (e.g. thick cotton sweatpants) is a good safety precaution. As with all fire stunts, cotton clothes (particularly if damp), or even better, wool, are safer than synthetics. The fire point of cotton is 210 °C (410 °F), and it is hard to ignite accidentally. But many common synthetic fabrics such as polyester fleece or nylon can easily catch fire or melt to the skin.[7]

Lighter is better for control.

hehe, no, I've heard of it before, kinda, but never actually thought to see a wiki about it. I never really thought about it as something I might find in the dictionary possibly in the future. Like the work "ain't" it's not a word. I don't know, it was funnier when I first read it because I thought it said fart-lightning...
