I had a turkey buzzard crap in the bed of my pick-up once

Isonitriles - they have been called the Godzilla of odors.

Freezer in the shop went out full of meat while I was out of town for a few weeks.

I used to live not far from a natural gas sweetner plant. They had a leak and it was really the worst. Full strength that stuff they add to gas to make you smell it will make you puke in about 0.5 seconds or less.

Back before GPS we did surveys with microwave transponders. Many were atop large channel markers. Covered in sea bird crap. Covered. Add rain and it was truly unpleasant.

Every day the blind man went for a walk.
Every day the blind man passed by the fish market.
Every day the blind man said, "Good morning girls."

I had one puke on my windshield when I disturbed them working on a roadkill jackrabbit. That odor sucked right into the fresh air vent. I've got a pretty strong stomach, but that made me disgorge too.

Corpse flower.

I have a buddy who is a retired Utah state trooper. He told me a story of helping to pull a dead guy out of the cab of his burned up truck. The corpse was kind of wedged in there and when he gave a good tug a chunk of cooked flesh flew off and hit him right square in the back of his mouth. He said he instinctively swallowed then promptly brought the entire contents of his stomach right back up.

^^^^ Winner^^^^ almost made me puke just reading about it

Was fly fishing with a buddy several years ago when a buzzard flew right over & took a giant crap on his fishing cap. It stunk so bad that I made him throw it away before I let him get back in my truck!

Burned decomp.

Sure is. I've had to experience that stench many times on my neighborhood walks. Practically knocks you over, whether it's a dead squirrel, possum, raccoon, or whatever, after several hours in the summer heat.

One of my uncles was in WWII in the Philippines and was picked for a detail one day with several other soldiers to bag bodies
that had been in the sun for a day or so. He said no matter how
times he washed his hands he could not get rid of the smell.

College Chem lab is a good place to encounter some foul odors.

A girl living in our Co-ed dorm was a year ahead of me. She took on a special project for her Sophomore year Organic Chem class. She decided to synthesize some especially nasty mercaptan molecule.

Mercaptans are the trace compounds added to propane to make it detectable.

She spent hours a couple afternoons each week for most of one semester working in the fume hoods in the Chem lab. Of course, the fume hood exhausted out on the roof of the science building. And, of course, the dining hall was downwind of the science building.

Some evenings it was nearly impossible to choke down one's dinner. And this went on for most of one semester.

The odor seeped into the poor girl's skin. For weeks, we knew exactly when she walked onto the wing in the dorm. Skunk smell is nothing compared to the stuff this gal was working with.

Oh, the things we will put up with in the name of science!

met this girl onetime.....

Didn't read all of the posts, but snake shiitt "ranks" up there...

There's some stuff that comes in a little plastic vile that I used to get for fly traps. It's like everything in all the above posts concentrated down into a few drops.

I find it interesting how many have seen and/or found dead bodies.

Only ones I've ever seen were in a casket.

According to my wife........

It's my farts on Sat morning following an evening of fine dining on great beef steak, asparagus, brussel sprouts and fully leaded Grain Belt Premium Beer.
