Am i the only person who laughs when someone falls over?

My lecturer fell over a few weeks ago, i was the only one who laughed.
My teacher set fire to his hand in class once. My and my friend had to leave the room and collapsed giggling on the floor in the corridor.
If it was me then I'd expect to get laughed at. It's human nature to laugh at other peoples misfortunes
:yes: same here!
Yeah I laugh when someone falls over on 'you've been framed' or whatever but not just at someone in the street. I feel bad for people that fall over and try to help
I once saw somebody slow motion tumble out of a car at a stoplight and spill a pop all over them. Funniest thing ever.
It would be funny to see kids fall, but then they start crying and it just becomes annoying.
The other day this woman was coming out of the jacuzzi and slipped on the stairs, fell and hit her head on the floor. There was blood all over the place, took the staff about an hour to clean it up. Wasn't funny.
I laughed pictureing that one.
Example: Some years back I was with some classmates and were playing a game. At some point a guy had to jump over a key that was on the floor, but he was dizzy and instead of jumping forwards he jumped to his back and left, falling on a plastic table and breaking it. I sure laughed at that!
Either I laugh or not though, the only way I wouldn't try to help is if they'd stood up before I got to them or someone else was already helping.
I normally have a discreet snigger. But I am usually the one that falls over. :grump:
