"An Australian (https://www.foxnews.com/category/world/world-regions/australia) appeals court on Friday ruled that repeated flatulence targeted at another individual wasn’t a form of bullying or assault.

The ruling by the Victoria state Court of Appeal came after David Hingst, a 56-year-old engineer, brought a case against his former supervisor for constantly farting toward him, demanding $1.3 million in damages from his former employer in Melbourne, Construction Engineering.

The court upheld an earlier ruling stating that even if Hingst’s allegations were found to be truthful, breaking wind doesn’t constitute bullying."


The man testified in court claiming that the bullying forced him to move out of a communal office space to avoid supervisor Greg Short's flatulence.

Yet Short would still enter Hingst’s small, windowless office a few times a day just to break wind, he said. This led him to spray Short with deodorant and call him “Mr. Stinky.”


“He would fart behind me and walk away. He would do this five or six times a day,” Hingst said outside court."

Gotta admit - that is pretty bizarre!:laugh:

I saw co-workers do the same thing; fart in an enclosed space, then
hightail it!:laugh:
