    And if so would it be possible to clone someone if you got hold of one of their farts?

    There is not enough internet between me and people like you.

    Cancel away, leaves more space and bandwidth for the important questions...

    Like why is the first fart in the morning always a loud one? Is it due to a pressure buildup overnight or something?

    We're talking about gas only, no solids (this time)

    It just contains gases which I don't believe can be analysed (no pun intended) in order to ascertain (again no pun intended) the source.
    However, it has been established that in 99% of cases, he who smelt it, dealt it.

    I commend you good sir for having the courage to ask the questions that everybody wants to ask but don't have the nads for it.

    Well done. You are a hero amoung men.

    In theory a person could be traced by their fart if there was a fart bank or fart profiling.

    But such is the complexity of the idea of fart profiling that it has been thought up of now.

    It was my idea, I came up with it first.

    Actually, it would be safer to light your farts if you were genuinely worried about leaving traces of DNA. This could cause any follow through to be compromised and unusable as evidence in criminal cases.
    However, I am not condoning the introduction of a naked flame to the act of flatulence.

    Do you think it's impossible to fart while asleep or something?

    No, but pretty much every morning I let out a loud one within minutes of getting up. Some days it may be the only fart or at least the only noisy fart that I disseminate.

    Hence the question.

    Perhaps the force of the fart might dislodge some epithelial cells although these would be deposited on your trousers/undies. If you were naked and farting......

    Thanks, this is probably the closest to an answer I've gotten. I'll need to read up on epithelial cells though. I'm assuming those are brown specks of poo?
