The one with Baloo seems random and somewhat typical. I did LOL at that one.

The rest, well, not as much. :(

I love the guy who Mike falls in front of. He puts his hands up like "IT WASN"T ME!".
Almost like he expects Disney security to swoop in on him!:ROFLOL:

I found them all pretty funny! You sticks in the mud need to lighten up. I bet all of these performers think it's funny looking back at it. Thanks for posting :)

I also don't find people getting hurt funny.

It may be OK for these performers to laugh at themselves in retrospect, but it's not OK for others to laugh at their misfortune.

It is not okay at all...granted they may look back later and laugh or they may laugh at the moment out of embarrassment like many people do when they trip or fall in front of people but they could be hurt and in my opinion it is not funny at all.

Guess I am just a stick in the mud though..:rolleyes:

Wow! I didn't realize that people possible getting seriously injured was so hilarious. Next time I see someone fall and crake their head open I will remember to point and laugh.

People or characters falling are and will always be funny. As I recall a show on Disney's ABC network has been on for years showing us all people falling, tripping , etc. It stinks that people may have got hurt but the act is still funny to watch!

Lighten up!:lol::lol::ROFLOL::lol::lol::ROFLOL::lol::lol:

Oh wait .. I get it!!

If it were a Bugs Bunny falling over at Six Flags or Spongebob tripping at Universal it would be hysterical. I got it now!! What was I thinking???:D

I haven't seen any of these videos. I'm just curious, though, how many of you who say that laughing at them is wrong, laughed your butts off watching the same exact thing happen to other people on America's Funniest Home Videos?

I know there will be the "but it's different" excuse, but is it really?

And before I get bashed, I have fallen down many times (I'm a clutz[SP?]) sustaining injuries in the process and laughed about it not even a minute later. Just wanted to throw that out there before someone says something to the effect of "me being in their shoes."

A character such as DeVine who stands on stilts falling lets say 6ft or so to the ground, and me tripping up the stairs because I'm a clutz are two different situations.
For the record: No I did not laugh when people would fall on Americas Funniest Videos, instead I wince at the sight of it.

I can understand DeVine. I do remember seeing one of the parades durring the day when I was younger (early 90's) and a stilt-walker fell right in front of me. He was hurt (he was slightly limping off the parade rout to go back stage w/out aid) but he laughed it off. Not because he wanted to "show that he was ok" but because he made a joke about what just happened.

But you did watch AFV, falling people or not, right. Did you laugh at anything on that show? If not, why watch?

For the record: I'm not defending anyone who said the characters falling was funny. Just asking a question. :wave:

I laughed at everyone. Funny!
This guy breaks his face @ 35 seconds and is visibly hurt but the show must go on. http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaJ9zyLcVG0&feature=related Did feel bad for that guy.

If these videos included people being hit in the groin at the same time that would win $10,000 for sure.

I tried to multi quote and just didn't get it, so here is my reply with numbers to your three statements

1) Exactly! as I said before about DeVine (That had to hurt) :dazzle:

2) As for AFV never really got into it! Blah! :hurl:

3) I know, I'm not mad at cha!... :)

I don't find them funny at all, nor did I find AFV funny either, but then I'm an old stick-in-the-mud too. :king:

Did anyone find it funny when Pluto fell a couple of years ago during the parade at the MK? He was run over by a parade float and killed. Did you laugh then?
