You don't need to speak Swedish...

...but I suspect Jarulf and the rest of us Scandinavians who do understand what she's saying will get an extra kick out of this. It's the end of a news broadcast:

I must have seen this clip a dozen times by now, and I crack up every time :)

There really is no place to run once "it's" out there, especially if you have a hyper-sensitive microphone attached to your person that will pick up even the slightest bodily function.. :P

Come to think of it, I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often. Sure, newsmen and women sometimes mince words and need to take a step back and repeat themselves, but involuntary burps, belches and farts never occur as much on television as one might think. Still, we should be thankful. If not only for letting us watch a news broadcast without having it interrupted every 10 seconds for a spot of flatulence; when it does occur, it's all the more sweeter.  :D

Ouch, if the cameraman had been a nicer fellow, or the producer, they'd have panned away instead of keeping her on a close up to just die there, second by second. Funny, but you really feel for her embarassment.

For whybish: Mrs Occhi's guidance, which is not uncommon among polite circles, suggests not that kids be kept ignorant of flatus, but that glorifying flatulence and drawing attention to farts via jokes is undesirable. As for me, I love fart jokes in good taste, and bad. That puts me in a bad odor with her now and again! :P
