My favourite video of all time... made even better by the fact that I know the dude in it!
Laughing is probably one of the most important ingredients for health and happiness. I heard about this woman before who was diagnosed with cancer, and responded by spending the next few months watching funny movies, hoping that doing so would kick her body into self-healing mode. Apparently, it worked.
Anyway, I was sitting around with a bunch of friends yesterday, watching youtube videos, and I remembered how great it is to laugh at random, slap stick shit that requires minimal commitment and no brain powerPlease post your most hilarious links here, so that if someone is having a bad day they can drop in and laugh at other people's misfortune

I don't think watching a man (even if you know him) fall and hit his head that hard on the pavement is funny.
But, I do believe in laughter and laughter yoga is the trick. It's not based on jokes at all, or what you may find funny (as jokes can go cruel or crude or what have you -- still funny, but. . . different feeling). It's just movement/sound and eventually your body starts laughing. It's great.![]()
Oh well.. We're all entitled to our opinionIMO it's not like the videos are malintentioned - if someone had pushed the guy over it would have been mean. Unless something is deliberately cruel or inciting hate I'm fine with it.
I've never tried laughter yoga! I'll give it a shot sometime![]()

Funny videos, in my opinion, don't involve someone getting hurt. Try this one:
Cat Putting On A Hat! - YouTube
Got to admit I don't laugh at people getting hurt, that guy falling on the ice looked really nasty, that sort of impact can kill if you are unlucky. Horses for courses though, I think it's a natural reaction to find that sort of thing funny for some poeple, whole TV programms have been based on people falling over.
However they guy getting decked - well he was asking for that, jump out on enough people and someone is going to punch you, so I smirked at that.
Here is my contribution
Not everyone's cup of tea but I like it![]()
