Question: if you dont fart will you blow up because thats wot someone told me

That someone was havving a laugh with you! If someone made you swallow a lit match then maybe you would blow up if your gut was filled with unspent fart gas. But like all explosive gas, farts require a spark to ignite the explosion. What would happen is a great deal of discomfort, that gas has to escape from somewhere otherwise it would build up in our guts like air in a balloon.
