A hospital security guard, known only as Doug, who filmed himself farting over 75 times while working at a Florida hospital has been sacked.

'It's come to our attention that you've recorded yourself in our uniform on the property,' an unidentified hospital employee can be heard saying in video footage filmed by Doug as he arrives to work.

Doug has been running The Fart Authority Instagram page since March, featuring himself in dozens of videos farting while at work.

'My goal is to be the first person to make a living off farting after getting fired from my job in a public manner,' Doug (above) said

'I'm Paul Flart I make fart videos on Instagram for the joy and happiness of all who see them,' he states in a fundraising page set up following his termination.

'My goal is to be the first person to make a living off farting after getting fired from my job in a public manner.'

In the flatulent footage, Doug faces the camera and farts on cue during quiet periods at work.

'The lobby has really great acoustics, and naturally, we all fart,' he explained in an interview with Vice.

'One day I ripped a rather nice one and got really good sound from it, so the next time it happened I recorded it and sent it to my group chat,' he said.

When Doug arrived to work Thursday morning, he was met by a supervisor who told him 'we need to talk'.

Filming the encounter, Doug is told he has violated company policy which prohibits using phones on the job 'an unusually high amount of times' and by filming himself wearing his security guard uniform on private property.

He is then asked to turn in his badge and uniform and stop recording.

Doug calmly declines, yet does not deny the accusations.

He refuses to sign the report detailing his behavior and walks away, saying: 'It's irrelevant, at this point.'

Going by the pseudonym Paul Flart, a nod to the hit film Paul Blart: Mall Cop, Doug is planning his next steps in his viral farting career.

'My thought process is just run with this and see where this goes,' he told Vice.

Merchandise, music videos and graphic designs are just a few plans he says are in the works.

His Instagram account has amassed nearly 50,000 followers from across the globe who contact him to praise his footage and send messages of support.

'I need the idea of a person living comfortably from farts to become a reality,' one fan wrote.
