Ted Danson Can Hear Himself Fart With New Hearing Aids: "I Used To Think It Was Silent"

Ted Danson can hear himself "breaking wind" with new hearing aids.

The 74-year-old actor — who is married to actress Mary Steenburgen — claimed that while his new hearing aids have "changed his life", he was left shocked the first time he heard himself breaking wind after having them fitted.

Speaking on The Kelly Clarkson Show, He said: "I love my hearing aids. They're brilliant. They have changed my life. [I can now hear] all the breaking wind that I used to think was silent. Mary would say 'Ted! People can hear you!' and I would say 'Oh come on, they can't hear me, of course not!' But the first time I had them in and I went off I said 'Oh my God, I'm so sorry!'"

However, the Good Place star went on to claim that he "feels sorry" for anyone who can't joke about flatulence.

He added: "And if you can't have fun with a fart then — oh my God — I feel sorry for people!"

Danson — who has daughters Kate, 42, and Alexis, 37, from his second marriage to Casey Coates and prior to that was married to actress Randy Dansonthen explained that he was once advised by a psychologist after graduating from college to break wind because he was "too uptight".

He added: "We all got out of Carnegie Mellon and went to New York but we all used the same psychologist because life was too scary at that moment. He said 'You're too uptight, you should be farting like a jackrabbit! Who knew about jackrabbits? But that has become our little family motto!'"
