The videos of this farting preacher have been around for a long assed time. I remember seeing one back in like.. '97? Anyway, it's still funny. It's the timing that makes it funny.
Here's some Wiki information (check out the URL )
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Farting_Preacher
| Quote: |
| In 1985, two American men began distributing a video they compiled lampooning Tilton and his ostensible conversations with God. The video exploits Tilton's facial expressions and preaching style. Entitled Pastor Gas, the video featured a medley of footage from Success-N-Life, overdubbed with well-timed sound effects of flatulence. Unofficial VHS copies of the video circulated in the United States through the late 1980s, under such titles as Heaven Only Knows, The Joyful Noise, and The Farting Preacher. After the hosts of The Mark and Brian Show, a radio program in Los Angeles, mentioned the video on the air, the video's authors saw the market potential and began selling official copies of their creation. The video distribution (including digital bootlegs distributed online) expanded public awareness of Robert Tilton and his controversial "television ministry". |

What I find hilarious is that someone - clearly someone after my own heart - took the time to compile and edit such a thing. God bless 'em and hallelujah. |
