Farting Sheep Cause Divert
They couldn't blame this one on the dog.
A Singapore Airlines jet was forced to make an emergency landing last month because of 2,186 flatulent sheep.
The Boeing 747-400 freighter plane was traveling from Sydney, Australia to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, but had to be diverted when a smoke alarm went off in a cargo bay, the Aviation Journal reports.
After the plane had made an emergency landing at an airport in Denpasar, Bali, investigators sniffed out the cause.
There was no smoke, fire nor heat in the bay.
Turns out, the gases from the farts and poop produced by 2,186 sheep sandwiched in the cargo bay set off the alarms, according to News.com.au.
Officials didn't have a cow about the stinky sheep.
Instead, they left the airport about 2.5 hours later and arrived at Kuala Lumpur 2.5 hours after that.

Those guys just wanted to go to Bali and were desperate for an excuse.
"Errrr, the sheep are farting too much...yeah! That's the ticket! ...Let's do an emergency divert to an exotic tourist destination!!"
