He wasn't even laughing at anything particular! MATT: / unnamedculprit | TOM: / tomscottgo There's nothing else to say, so have some socials! :P / unnamedculprit / tomscott instagr.am/unna... instagr.am/toms...
This happens to me all the time, Matt, of course when it does there's always someone who's going to poke the bunny to make it worse. Yes, Tom, I'm looking at you.
"If you have been affected by the issues in this video, caused by the giggling of this man, known for this image, of this video, please call the number on screen now."
It's here we learn how incredibly patient Tom is. We also learn that this happens often enough to where Tom knows there's no point fighting it, and instead he just pulls out his phone. Also, we learn that Matt has a contagious laugh, not only to himself, but to the audience as well.
The captions for this are auto generated into German! It’s just [Gelächter] [Gelächter] [Gelächter] [Gelächter] [Gelächter] which I presume means laughter... it’s picked up nearly nothing else!
@@thetimetraveller2671 You can choose German subtitles in the settings of the video. But since those are auto-generated AND in another language, I'd really suggest the English ones. 😁
*Files under 'I didn't know I needed this'* Honestly my favourite parts are Tom's actions while he's laughing (not to make fun of you Tom - just don't really see that kind of bouncing laugh often!), and Matt's face at the end when Tom says "It'd be a bad idea to set you off again" it's kind've "I feel guilty but sure I'll do it again" and caught me out a bit. But yeah it's quite nice to just laugh for no particular reason.
Symbioticism i kan say from self experience that the sound og laughter can be the reason to start laughing. And the closer you are with the persons around you the stronger it gets. And in a way no one is that close to your self as you are.
Sometimes when you try not to laugh, you end up focusing on the thing that made you laugh to begin with. Kind of like being told to not think about something.
+1 to this. I’ve had involuntary fits of laughter to the point that I start to get really frustrated at the fact that I can’t stop. Would love to see the science behind it if there has been any research into it.
I did a quick check, it looks like Coupling defined the term "Giggle Loop". I can't find any references predating it, but Coupling is awesome. _"I've got the keys to the gates of paradise, but I've got too many legs!"_
Wait, that doesn't happen to everyone. Who hasn't a two to three minute bout of constant laughter? I've never had mine filmed, but still, I have had it, and I thought everyone has.
I had one a couple of days back while watching a movie. The joke wasn't even funny but my sis and I just couldn't stop laughing for several minutes. I was crying and running around to make it stop but we just couldn't! 😂
I had one the Tuesday just gone. Nothing particularly funny happened, but I was babysitting and teaching two of the older children silly word and improve games to pass the time because the Internet was down and we all just started laughing to the point where just looking at each other set us off again. We were still at it when their mum got home and my diaphragm still hurts.
Aw, man, this has genuinely made me smile so hard my cheeks hurt. It's been a lonely day, and this was pleasant to come across scrolling through old videos on the channel.
You should do a reaction video to this called “Trying Not To Laugh, 3 years later” or something like this! I bet Matt will laugh in sync with himself in the video!
Giggle loop leading to hysterical laughter story! I was in a car with my family a few weeks ago, we were travelling a few hours, returning from an engagement party. i was tired but happy, had had a bit of wine but not heaps. My little brother was playing a finish the logo game on his ipad and i was helping, for something to do. My dad and I tend to swap dad jokes, so we'd already had a few laughs. Then I made a really stupid joke that I can't even remember. I had a giggle, no one else laughed, which I thought was funny. then I remember thinking "that wasn't even funny," and I was off. With my brother staring at me in confusion, and my dad trying not to be distracted from the road, my giggles became chuckles, then just plain laughter. it went for so long. I had tears running down my face, and my chest hurt from it! absolutely ridiculous. Good fun, though.
God I love this video. Watching Matt crack up on Citation Needed is one of my favorite things about the show. This is Matt distilled down into pure laughter and it's great
Unfortunately we witnessed the end of "Matt and Tom" here, because from now on, every time a video is about to start, Matt will remember this very moment. 😝
