* In ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' the recurring spell ''Tasha's hideous laughter'' works by inducing this. If a character it's cast on fails a wisdom saving throw they fall prone and become incapacitated; that is to say everything suddenly becomes so funny to them that they end up on the floor laughing. It was originally named after a young girl who sent Creator/GaryGygax a letter asking him to add a laughter-related spell to the game (or so he says), but was eventually retconned as the [[FromNobodyToNightmare original name]] of Iggwilv, a recurring villain from the "Greyhawk" setting.

Banzaii cracks up as he realizes that the on-screen "Insert disk" text now appears to read "Insert dick", and ends up laughing for so long and so hard that the subtitles suggest that he needs an inhaler.
** In 'We Broke Star Trek," Biggi (playing Spock) dangles from a hole in the ceiling before dropping to the ground... only to find that Spock is stuck in his hanging animation. Banzaii promptly cracks up, leaving Kirk unpiloted as he goes on laughing himself to tears in the background; in the end, the only way the two of them can continue playing is if Banzaii avoids looking at the still-bugged Spock. Eventually, a cutscene appears to fix the bug, only for the hanging animation to return when gameplay resumes. Banzaai loses it all over again.
