Why do farts smell worse in the shower?

Andre Canniere, NYC, USA

• Underwear and trousers absorb a large part of the gas that's passed in farts. When you fart in the shower, the gas immediately enters the surrounding atmosphere, and hence they smell worse. The warm air may also be a factor as convection currents will cause the gas to rise straight to your nose.
