Joseph Pujol (June 1, 1857 – August 8, 1945), better known by his stage name Le Pétomane, was a French flatulist (professional fartist), comedian and entertainer.

Goniostat? A specialized, adjustable, and stable instrument used to hold an object, such as a cutting tool or a crystal, at precise compound angles for grinding or honing?
