It’s difficult to pinpoint precisely why watching someone break character on live television is so hilarious, but the fact remains that it’s side-splittingly funny to watch a person lose complete control of his or her ability to maintain a straight face.
Stoic silver fox Anderson Cooper getting pranked by his co-workers for his basil-scented candle is a great example of how funny it can be to watch someone lose composure on air. He’s a pretty hilarious giggler, as it turns out.
But the video below will likely live on in the hall of fame of character-breaks due to her complete lack of coherent speech as she laughs so hard at a cat story that is, admittedly, hilarious. The poor little guy was in therapy for excessive weight gain and is seen in the clip paddling around a pool in a kitty-sized life jacket looking less than stoked about it.
The silver lining, of course, is that the little guy did manage to drop some weight and get back to a healthy size. But this information is mostly lost in between gasps as the TV anchor tries desperately to form words while laughing hysterically. I dare you to watch this video and not crack a smile yourself.
