...if you were trapped in an enclosed space for long enough (a lift for example), would it be possible to fart yourself to death?

Can a person contain that amount of a gas? Or generate it in time? A news report a few years ago claimed an Indian man who slept in an enclosed spaceee had suffered this fate, but I expect a look at Snopes or similar will help...

Ah. That puts a stake through the heart of that one then!
Snopes is an amazing site, I could read it all day. Very good for debunking some of these ridiculous emails that do the rounds for years. What was the one I got the other day? Oh yeah - don't use your phone while it's charging because you'll get burned to death! I was straight onto Snopes, which confirmed that it's cobblers, basically. -

I heard once that if you set light to a fart it can't smell - do you happen to know if that's true?

only if it were hermatically sealed.
