Comment on If I stood on a precision scale and farted, would I get lighter or heavier?

  My volume changes a lot. When I’m full of gas, I look like I’m pregnant.

  Well your guts and skin and other tissues do have some elasticity, I suppose it is possible that a large gas bubble might be able to expand your abdomen slightly.

  We’re very much into spherical cows in a vacuum territory here. I don’t think there’s any way this would be realistically measurable,just fun to think about.

    It would have to expand your abdomen slightly, assuming you don’t have access to a fourth dimension.
