What's so funny about people getting hurt?!


Question: What's so funny about people getting hurt!?
We've all seen them!. The videos of the guy walking right into a nice clean glass door thinking it's open!.!.!.but what's the limit!? I've seen some videos that just aren't funny!.!.!.even if the person did something stupid or is mainly trying to get hurt, it's just not funny to me!.

I mean, is it funny seeing someone hit by a train, or a guy slipping with a chain saw and sawing his face in half!. Hilarious!

I know just what you mean!
When I watch "You've Been Framed!" on T!.V, and it shows all the people on bikes smacking themselves face down onto the pavement and kids running and falling over etc, it just makes me wonder!.!.!. how is this funny!?
I was watching that programme recently and asked my brother after someone hurt themself, "Why do people actually think this funny!?"
and he just says "Cos it is" or something like that!. Oh, cool (!)
I must say I do find it funny when animals do crazy things, but the truth is it doesn't hurt them!
"You've been Framed!" is actually an incredibly popular show!. Why!? I understand if it 'cos of the funny animals in it, but when it's people, I don't know why!.
Do you think anyone, after watching someone do something "hilarious" by hurting themselves actually wonder "Gosh, he must have had to go to hospital because of that" or "Do you think that woman is okay!?"!. Probably not!. Well, I hope people do!
The thing is, overall, people might find it funny because it's not happening to them!. Well what if it IS you!? Do you find it funny!? I don't think I would!.
I don't think you or I will ever know why people laugh at these "funny" things!.

I find it funny!.!.!. when a friend of mine walks into a door and looks like a big dummy I have a laugh!. And same as when I walk into a door, I look silly for a minute and its just damn funny!. Obviously your little examples there are a little extreme as I don't think death is quite as funny as a minor injury like stubbing a toe or bumping your head, where the pain lasts for few minutes at the most!.!.!. Death and serious injuries obviously aren't funny, its just the kind of small injuries that you look silly getting, especially when it's walking into very obvious things like walls/doors!. Anything more serious I dont think anyone would find funny!.!.!. but come on! People always try to put on a show and look good and dress nice and act tought and cool and whatever, apperance is everything, so when thats all stripped away and you look like a fool for a few minutes, thats comedy!
lighten up, my friend!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Well, human psychology is that people feel relieved when something happens to someone, and its not them that the situation is happening to!. So when they laugh, they are thinking, "hey, thank goodness that's not me!."
But, people who think that's seriously funny is because, they never seen it happen around them, or in real life (first hand view)!. They would probably think otherwise if they saw it first hand!. It might be also a factor of superiority They also might think people are not Intelligent enough to avoid that problem, and thus laugh because they think they are far more intelligent and superior than the victim!.
also, the victim might have been doing something stupid at the time, so someone might laugh as in saying they deserved it!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Slapstick is a type of comedy involving exaggerated physical violence or activities which exceed the boundaries of common sense, such as a character being hit in the face with a heavy frying pan or running into a brick wall!.

Personally, I don't understand why a guy getting kicked in the sack or someone getting hit in the face is so hilarious!. I find it to be stupid!. I prefer high brow comedy, as opposed to low brow!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

If so many others are enjoying, find out the reason and if it is genuine, fall in line with the majority!.
If you don't like it, you, after all, have the option to shut it down!.
The producers of films and videos are like children!. The child overdoes something if it is applauded for doing it!. Only difference is that the child wants applause and the producer the fast buck!.
Every one has an option and one only has to exercise it!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

It's all about presentation anything can be funny just as long as its presented the jackass guys had it if you look at the extras in the dvds you will notice something they did wouldn't hurt that bad but the way they presented was as if ut was horrible!. also when they really did get hurt all the laughter and comedy was gone like when Johnny Knoxville gashed open his headWww@Enter-QA@Com

I dont like those too much!. Maybe someone slipping and falling, or something as long as they arent hurt!.
Its kinda hard for me to watch them if I think they are going to be hurt!. I cant watch people make a fool of themselves either!. I have to turn away or change the channel!. If its in real life I have to go away!. :)

The other day on one of those "funny video" shows they showed a bunny chasing a rattle snake and kept playing with itWww@Enter-QA@Com

Falling down the stairs, is my favorite!. Frasier falling off the stage (video) was hilarious!.!.!. too!.

It's the shock of it, as long as people don't get very hurt!. People doing things they're not ready for, like walking into a screen door is always fun!. Not on purpose, though!. By accident!. Hitting isn't that funny anymore!. Like, the Three Stooges style bonking!.!.!. and, the 'pie in the face' seems to run its course!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

there is a certain point where it gets kinda weird
but like, when i watch saw or hostel
i like crack up at that
but thats just cause i know that itd never happen and that its just hollywood being stupid and fake
and many peoplesay i have a twisted sense of humor
but like when i know somethings real
it actually
kinda scares me
yeahh theres deffinitly a certain point where it just gets not funny but hurtfulWww@Enter-QA@Com

it's funniest when no one gets hurt but looks totally stupid, its still funny if there's a bit of pain, and then when there's a lot of pain its mostly shocking, if someones killed its like oh man thats shocking and not very funny unless theyve put a jet engine on a bike then it may be slightly jocular but kinda sad!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Ooh My Groin!
Haha yeah it's not terrible funny humour and it's funny how television shows like "Funniest Home Videos" relies almost entirely upon people injuring themselves!.

I guess the people who enjoy watching and laughing at other people's misfortunes are just "silly people" with nothing better to do!. =)Www@Enter-QA@Com

Ugh!. I hate watching people get hurt!. It makes me paranoid!. On AFV (America's Funniest Home Videos) they show lots of clips of people getting hurt, and I do not find them funny at all!. Except for maybe that glass door one!. :PWww@Enter-QA@Com

I don't think it's funny all the time!. When it's random and stupid, like in family Guy, it's funny!. But in premonition, where the little girl runs through the glass door because she doens't realize it's shut, is SOOOO sad!Www@Enter-QA@Com

i dont think its funny!. really!.
i just think its kind of silly!.
everytime i see shows like people get whack and people just burst out laughing!.
i dont get it!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

it's only funny when it's the little things like someone tripping but not seriously hurt!. once someone gets seriously hurt, that's when it's not funny!. Www@Enter-QA@Com

well its funny if ur not on the receiving end!.!. though definately not if its a major incident and the person is seriously hurtWww@Enter-QA@Com

its funny when someone, other than you, gets hurt!. someone slipping with a chain saw isn't funny!. maybe someone running into a pole is!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I think its funny if some guy is retarded enough to like confuse a telephone with a shotgun, but when like some guy goes out and purposely does it it is not as funny!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The humour is lost as soon as real damage is evident,,then it becomes shock!.
Deviants might not quite feel that way!. It's probably funnier at the extreme end in their eyes!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

i agree people go to some extremes that just aren't funny silly things like walking into glass doors or tripping those are funny but yeah i totally agree with youWww@Enter-QA@Com

it's all fun and games until someone gets hurt





then it's hilariousWww@Enter-QA@Com

You'll generally find that about 90% of what we call humour is based on the misfortune of others!.

A guy walks into a bar!.!.!.
