We all had pressing follow-up questions when Daniel Radcliffe announced his role as a flatulent corpse in Swiss Army Man. To clarify—we recognize the desire for more context here—Radcliffe stars as a dead man with the all-too-common issue of excessive farting.

Some things in life are better explained with visuals, so on the Moscow International Film Festival red carpet, Radcliffe provided a demonstration when he dropped down to the red carpet and lay there, motionless, much to the surprise of fans and photographers.

No word on whether Radcliffe attempted to recreate his character's signature gaseousness, but we're pretty sure he just let everyone use their imaginations for that.

Swiss Army Man opens worldwide on July 1.
