BTW, If one was already profoundly hypothermic, would it be unwise to fart?

Top comment is wrong: the short answer to the post title is a hard “yes” due to enthalpy of solvation. The process of fart mixing into ambient air generates heat.

The answer to your followup question would require some modeling — with the main factors being fart composition, body mass, thermal gradient, and room size.
