Worlds worst smell?

joejoem

What (in your opinion) are the worlds worst smells, the ones that make you physically ill.

For me

Tinned dog food
Faeces
Feet, wet feet in particular.
Hobo - any kind, this could also be called the unwashed.
Cabbage being cooked

joe_chicken

Fish

Blisterman

Ass Sweat.

Tazz T

death

Stench Blossoms

BoozyBabe

Mushroom factories
Sour milk
chicken guts

joejoem

Really bad BO, as mentioned above. When i was a teenager I used work in a shop, there was this one customer who would come in every day and we would literally have to get the air fresheners out after he left .... gack.

Following closely behind that smelly unwashed ****er is the effluent plant beside the place where I work at the moment, when the wind blows the wrong way it is bloody rank.

The Gnome

Yeah, I'm gonna have to say dead things. Still haunted by the smell and sight of a maggot infested rat under a kitchen press.

Ungh, have to go shower now.

Shrimp

Without a doubt rotten meat. We did a science experiment in third year where we dissected a sheep's heart. We were the last class to do it, a week after they were bought. It was horrific. I was gagging at the smell alone. that was definitely the most sickening smell ever.

Atrocity

The two most horrific smells in the universe:

1. Burning hair

2. When you boil an egg and leave the water boil out and the egg burns in the saucepan. That smell stays for weeks.

One of the worst smells I've experienced was the Jack Daniel's Distillery in Tennessee. The mash was just rank! To think of something so lovely coming from something that horrid smelling...

Smelliest Substance
The smelliest substances on Earth are the manmade "Who-Me?" and "US Government Standard Bathroom Malodor", which have five and eight chemical ingredients respectively. “Bathroom Malodor” was developed by chemists in America as a way of testing the effectiveness of deodorants and air fresheners. It emits an incredibly unpleasant odor that resembles human feces. “It’s very pungent,” explains Paul Dalton of the Model Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia. “It fills your head and gets to you in ways that are unimaginable.”

”Who Me?” on the other hand has a different but equally overwhelming stench. The sulphur-based substance smells of rotting food and carcasses. It was originally developed during the Second World War when it was hoped French resistance fighters would be able to humiliate and embarrass German soldiers by making them smell horrific. The idea came to nothing since it was impossible to properly target the smell – instead, it ended up polluting large areas.

Thats the one. There are a few stories about me being chased with high temperatures refusing to drink that stuff. To this day I cant drink it, I have suffered through sore throats when nothing else was available. Just no way I could handle that in my mouth.

In fairness I'd say a lot of the smells listed are childs play compared to some smells experienced by peopel working in certain industries eg
meat, chicken, fish processing
mushroom production
maggot production :eek:
etc.

I lived in Saudi Arabia as a kid, and one day in September, when the average temperature was approx 40-45 degrees, the corpse of an elderly farmer who had been tending his goats in an isolated oasis was brought to the hospital where my parents were working. The man had been dead 3 days and his body exposed to 40 degree heat in the time it was taken for him to be discovered. They kept his remains in the hospital for 24 hours and you could smell it for miles. NEVER, ever, ever (x 10000000) will I forget the stench :eek:

madrab

Guess who just googled?

Nike air runners when the air bubble bursts. I used to work in a sports shop and people would come back with their nike air runners complaining about the smell.

ohh has to be any cow thats being cooked ie. steak (the worst), any beef, lamb (peuck!)

also the smell of butter makes me sick........ schtink !

another one, remember bout 2yrs ago was on a bus journey, only to come across a serious road accident, got this most horendous smell ever, only to find out it was a truck that had hit something and toppled over, and the contents of the truck went all over the road, and it was full of animal guts.. it was THEE VILEST SMELL ever to smell !!!!

feckidyparp

No way man, guinnesses smell great

liten

the worst smell for me would be alcohol while beeing hung over... and puke.
The smell of toilet roll paper factorys is also unbelievable. And bins.

A teacher once told me that it was scientifically proven that butyric acid is the worst smell. Don't rememer what he said it smelled like but i think you can find it in butter. He also said that if you get the acid on your skin it will take months for the smell to dissapear!

The worst smell by far for me is the rotten gunk that comes out of my impacted wisdom tooth in the morning after a good nights festering. Delicious.
I should really goto the dentist about that.
