text: can a fully conscious person fart without realising that they had done it? a man sitting on a couch next to a friend is accused of farting. apparently the friend had 'felt the rumble'. the man denies the deed, and the arguement builds.... could he have dropped one without even knowing it?  we await your answers with held breath lol.  i highly doubt he would not be able to feel his own fart, if another had felt the rumble.  was there a smell afterward?  if there was no tell tale fart smell, maybe it wasn't a fart.  otherwise, i think he's just not fessing up.
