Will Smith is trending on Nigerian social media after Barry Sonnenfeld, a movie director, claimed a crew had to leave the movie set for three hours due to flatulence caused by the Hollywood movie star.
Sonnenfeld, who directed Men In Black, which featured Smith in 1997, claimed the actor once broke wind so severely that an entire crew had to be evacuated.

According to Sonnenfeld, the incident occurred when Smith, alongside Tommy Lee Jones, was in a transforming car that required them to be ‘hermetically sealed’ in a pod.
Recalling the incident, Sonnenfeld said,
‘So we race the ladder over, Tommy reaches his leg out as the ladder is coming over, and races down the stairs. And what happened was, Will Smith is a farter.’
He continued: ‘It’s just some people are. And you really don’t want to be inside a very small hermetically sealed space with a Will Smith fart.”
Sonnenfeld said this while appearing on the Let’s Talk Off Camera With Kelly Ripa podcast.
