Sometimes your day can take an unexpected turn. For instance, when you discover that your thighs can 'fart'. Or, indeed, when you find yourself reading about a teenager who shared footage of her thighs 'farting'. Watch the clip here:

Tia Fanelli discovered the bizarre ability last week and decided to upload a clip of herself demonstrating her unexpected talent to social media, in the hope that others would relate. However, she was left stunned when it emerged that most viewers were left 'amazed or confused'.

The hilarious video starts with Tia saying 'I need answers' before she announces: "This isn't necessarily for people with the thick thighs or the skinny thighs - it's for anybody with thighs in general."

The 17-year-old then says: "Please tell me your thighs do this when you sit down on a chair," before she sits on her bed and points to her thighs, aghast as they let off what has been dubbed a 'thart'.

Tia was quite honestly shook.

The video ends with Tia doing the demo over and over again as she earnestly repeats the phrase 'my thighs fart when I sit down'.

Tia, from Florida, US, said: "I have no idea what makes this video so funny to people. I think that maybe it's the fact that not a lot of people can do it, so it's something the audience hasn't seen before unlike a lot of the content on TikTok.

"I honestly thought that people would relate to my video, but it seems like 95 percent of the comments are people confused and amazed at how I can 'thart'."

She continued: "I am surprised that people reacted the way that they did. I didn't really think that it would go as viral as it did but honestly I think it's hilarious.

"It's funny because someone actually commented, 'How are you still adorable while you're tharting?' That is the first time in my life I've ever heard the word 'thart' but I laughed at it for a good minute or so, and it kinda just stuck."

Tia thinks she discovered her bizarre skill when she sat down to tell her mum something and her thighs made a farting noise.

Tia said this has been her biggest video on TikTok and at first didn't think it was her 'best' but can see now that it is because of how viral it went.

Tia said: "I only recently just noticed that I could do this, I went to go sit down and I guess I sat down with too much force and it just kinda happened.

"When I discovered this, I'm pretty sure I was sitting down to tell my mom something and it happened and she thought that the sound came from somewhere else. But we both had a laugh at it.

"I usually hop on the TikTok trends that are happening. Sometimes I make content that I think is funny, and other times I make content that I believe the people will enjoy. It all just varies."

Tia posted the video on TikTok.

Tia's video racked up more 438,000 likes and 10,600 comments, and while a few people do say they relate, most comment on the uniqueness of Tia's skill - while others suggest she's just using a whoopee cushion.

One said: "Mine do that - I literally though that was a one time thing." Another added: "Mine do that sometimes but not all the time."

A third said: "As a representative of the skinny thighs I can not relate."

Meanwhile, others simply doubted her ability. "You probably have a whoopee cushion under your blanket," one commented.

The mysteries of life, eh?
