Can you outrun a fart?

No, you generally can't outrun a fart because the gas molecules travel much faster than humans, but you might escape the main cloud if you move quickly because the gas disperses and slows down due to air resistance, making the smell less concentrated away from the source, though the sound is impossible to outrun.

How fast can a fart travel?

An average fart travels around 7 miles per hour (10 feet per second), but speeds can vary, with some reaching up to 20 mph, depending on the force of expulsion, body physiology, and air currents which can greatly affect smell dispersion. While individual gas molecules move incredibly fast, the overall "fart" as a detectable entity is slowed by air resistance and diffusion, allowing it to be easily outrun.
 

Can a fart escape through breath?

How to do an armpit fart?

To do an armpit fart, cup your hand around your armpit, leaving a small space for air, then quickly move your upper arm up and down (like a flapping wing) to force air out, creating a fart-like sound, often helped by some moisture or a slightly wet armpit for a better seal and noise. The key is creating a sealed pocket and rapidly expelling air, similar to how a real fart's sound is made by air passing through a tight opening.
