http://www.totalfilm.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15838 That bit in LOTR where they're all jumping on the bed - lol'd at that one... Agent Smith: 'I hate this place. This zoo. This prison. This reality, whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell.'  Does the cow in Twister count? The vampires in I Am Legend headbutting everything definitely does Whether film or real life... go! |

Or oldies peeing themselves in the supermarket. Or some little kids saying something that their mum definitely does not want discussed in public. "I am telling granny that I saw you sucking daddies willy" which happened at a friends workplace.

During a video at school I couldn't stop laughing when we were being shown how a chicken abbatoir works. |

The bit in 28 Days Later where the taxi driver dad gets blood in his eye (literally) and turns into a Zombie. Found that very funny indeed though I suspect that's not the response they were going for. Pretty much the whole of Black Sheep, though I suspect that the horror aspect wasn't really the driving force behind that one. Dog soldiers is another blindingly funny horror film. Saw Four Lions last week. As a Chris Morris film it's certainly an excellent example of Jimmy Carr's statement that the best laugh is the one followed by a sharp intake of breath when the brain catches up and says you shouldn't have laughed. |

ANYONE falling over. It somehow seems to be more funny the more it looks like it hurt. This includes drunk people trying to jump over anything and failing miserably. Someone accidentally setting fire to their hair at a bus stop last week. One woman sat next to the chap could not stop laughing. Howling in fact as loud as you like. At the woods on the bike. Coming down a steep slope, my old boss (but then current boss) filming on his phone. Tidy! He goes next. Over the handlebars, face full of mud. YES! He wants to save his dignity so has another go. Comes off again but this time breaks his bike in the process. The 1st fall I managed to restrain myself. The 2nd fall I was on the floor crying with laughter holding my ribs as they hurt so much. |
