Ronald Cabañas, 28, ''pushed the outer limits of flatulence'' when he achieved a farting-feat and snuffed out five flames in the village of Barangay Camandag, in less than 30 seconds.

A video has emerged online of the incident which sees Ronald lying on his back in the ''happy baby'' yoga position, holding a pipe to his posterior and using just his bubbling bowls to blow out the candles.

The record was logged with RecordSetter.com, an adjudicating agency that allows people to submit their own wacky world records.
