Tell me you didn't laugh..

Really? You get kicks out of someones pain? Really look at yourself for laughing..this isn't funny at all its tragic. I watched that show and remember Rocky in his prime.He threw his life and career away and his son's suffered.The internet has allowed some to expose people sometimes at their worse all for your and others enjoyment..laugh! It could be you or someone you care about someday. SAD!

I thought he was doing a Chewbacca imitation.

I don't believe in reality TV, so I don't feel bad. That was probably the 4th or 5th take. "C'mon feel it, FEEL IT!!!"

I'm normally a very sympathetic person, but I laughed at this--it's the context. If this played out in public in front of me, or someone taped a private exchange like this and put it up on the Internet, it wouldn't be funny.

No, because we won't choose to appear in a reality TV show.

Not talking about someone you know and love being on a show. I was saying this type of situation could end up effecting someone you care about...lets see how funny it is then..TV show or not.

One could argue that you're the one lacking IQ if you think that one's Intelligence Quotient is, in any way, indicative of what they should find humorous or vice-versa :p. Your use of the word "troll" (read: Troll), is also wrong. And like Stu said, Let It Fall's been around here for a while. So what's that, 0 points awarded for 3 points attempted? We call that a fail where I come from. If you don't like it, that's perfectly fine but you're throwing throwing around words, phrases and "facts" that don't make any sense in the context that you present them in.

Worthless? Not at all. Hilarious? Absolutely. Karma? Don't believe in it. Have a nice day.

You can't build an argument without proper support. I've learned that the hard way ;).

I feel like I need to clarify this point though for everyone: No decent person that finds this funny is laughing at this man's misfortune. I doubt any of us even know what is going on in that scene. We're taking it completely out of context and just laughing at how these guys sound. The first time I saw this I fell out of my chair laughing but not at the pain that these two are going through, that would just be wrong.

This is from a reality show? Then the emotion's fake. IRONYYYYYYYY.

But in all seriousness, let's say this is real. No one's saying "HAHA LOOK AT THEIR PAIN IT AMUSES ME!!!", they're saying "That noise is weird and somehow entertaining. I believe I shall partake in a slight chuckle."

If you're offended, leave. No one made you watch it. I personally didn't find it funny, but I wasn't thinking about the people's emotional turmoil, I was thinking, "Well there's 37 seconds I can never get back."
