Idk, I feel like there's something distinctly human about "let me see".
It's like when someone announces how bad something smells and everyone takes a big wiff of the air. The odds are good that someone close by will grab it and verify.
I recently experienced this when someone let one go in a server room. Multiple people walked in to check and I was the weird one for just watching and laughing.
Ah, the ole 'courtesy sniff.'
