Wacky Facts by Agent K #28: Did You Know a Herd of "Farting" Cows Once Blew Up the Roof of a Farm?

in #animal7 years ago

 One cow can emit several liters of methane on a daily basis according to animal science, which makes you wonder what a large group of cows could do. Especially if you're the following type of dude, you have probably put some serious consideration into this...

The good news is that we've got some wacky answers for you. The bad news, however, is that if you're anywhere near to a herd of cows with a "mad ass," you could easily end up being dead!

The Menu of the Day

Apparently, a herd of farting cows are capable to explode a whole building, or to be more precise, they can blow up their own barn's roof by "synchronized" farting. 

According to the Independent News, a roof of a farm in Rasdorf, Germany, was exploded from a "ferocious" attack by some angrily explosive cows’ arses. 

I know you're probably think that I am kidding, but I am deadly serious when I say that 90 dairy cows literally blew the roof off their barn in Germany, when the levels of methane they released by farting caused an explosion. The timing of cows was so perfect, to the point their buttholes turned into Hotchkiss M1914 machine guns.    

According to the local Hesse police's statements, “A static electric charge apparently triggered the detonation, and a spurt of flame at a farm in Rasdorf. The roof was slightly damaged and one cow suffered light burns. No people were hurt.”   

Right after the "explosive" incident, emergency services rushed to the farm in order to collect gas samples to examine a possible risk of future explosions. The investigation revealed that a small herd of cows can emit up to 500 liters of methane on a good day, a fact that makes a cow’s ass a public enemy pretty much!

Moooooo!!!
