Antton Puonti delivered an unforgettable version of John Lennon’s “Merry Xmas (War is Over).” If it doesn’t get you in the holiday spirit, nothing will.

Puonti is, however, not the world’s greatest manualist—the proper term for hand-farters. That honor belongs to Gerry Phillips, the original master of the hand-fart, who’s amassed more than 24 million views on YouTube since his first brush with fame in 2007. Phillips has been in semi-retirement for the last five years or so.

“I don’t plan on making any more videos for YouTube unless I find something that really makes me want to do it,” he told the Kernel last year. “How much more fame would it bring me?” 

Can someone please make a duet happen?
