** The [[spoiler:Ravioli takedown]] incites this on both the shop assistant filming it and everyone that watches the fight

* ''Literature/{{Redwall}}'': A short but simple example from near the end of ''Mattimeo''

* ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries'': {{Inverted}} in one of the closing scenes of the "World's Finest" three-parter. Mercy Graves, in bandages with a broken arm and ribs, laughs at a news report of Harley Quinn being hauled back to Arkham, then winces as the motion sets off her various sore spots.

* LetsPlay/{{Yogscast}}: The Jaffa Factory series done by the in their VideoGame/{{Minecraft}} [[WebVideo/YogscastMinecraftSeries series]] had a moment where LetsPlay/SimonLane incorrectly builds a Santa statue [[EpicFail with its belt below its butt]]. LetsPlay/{{Sips}} bursts into laughter over this and then every other Yogscast member all starts laughing hard too.

* ''Manga/KenichiTheMightiestDisciple'': In his climatic fight vs. Odin, the [[TitleCharacter titular protagonist]] starts to imitate his various masters in order to throw off Odin's AwesomenessByAnalysis KungFuClairvoyance. Some masters cheer with pride at seeing Kenichi imitate them, while others nervously deny that they look or sound like that — and then Kenichi delivers a spot-on imitation of ThePhilosopher Akisame Koetsuji, complete with a short lecture. Akisame [[ComicallyMissingThePoint states his approval]] while the other masters crack up. Even [[EmotionlessGirl Kousaka Shigure]] has a hard time holding it in.

* In the [[AllThereInTheManual Servant Materials]] of ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', [[FriendToAllChildren Atalante]] learns from Sasaki Kojiro that Medea [[UsedToBeASweetKid went from a sweet child that she cared for to a bitter witch]]. Atalante [[LaughingMad laughs so hard]] from the agony that she faints. On the surface, it's played for laughs, but given how close the two were shown to be in ''LightNovel/FateApocrypha'', it's likely that Atalante [[ItsAllMyFault blames herself]] [[TearJerker for not protecting Medea]].

* In ''Fanfic/TheAFRUniverse'' story "Boys And Queens", Ann falls into a laughing fit when she discovers Ryuji is going on a date to a fancy restaurant with [[Hifumi Toga]].

This is TruthInTelevision: Laughter, especially loud, intense laughter, results in emotional excitement and causes your tear glands to be stimulated, resulting in an inverted version of CryLaughing. Laughing for a long period and with sufficient force can also result in potentially stressing muscles, mainly the cheeks or the stomach.

** When Jabra sees his own [[ShapeShifter Devil Fruit transformation]] for the first time, he laughs himself silly. The reason? He's a giraffe -- his PartialTransformation is even more hilarious. His [[QuirkyMinibossSquad teammate]] Kaku first yells at him to shut it, but when Kaku's own wolf ears twitch during the {{Beat}}, Jabra is sent into gut-busting hysterics.
** During the Dressrosa arc the villain Pica, who has eaten the Stone Stone Fruit and can turn himself into a stone colossus happens to have a very high, squeaky voice. The sheer dichotomy of TheBigGuy having such a voice causes Luffy, Zoro, and some of their allies to bust a gut laughing. It makes Pica go berserk.

* {{WebVideo/Jerma985}} tends to laugh himself hard enough into a headache with all the wacky shit that has occurred in the game he played, most prominently [=GTA4=].
* [[Creator/TheCynicalBrit TotalBiscuit]] wound up in the hospital after a particularly funny game of Superfight caused him to strain himself laughing.

* One of ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'''s mission outfits in "Clothes Minded" was a [[ImpossiblyTackyClothes ridiculous-looking anime-style mecha suit]] that caused Drakken and Shego to collapse in a fit of laughter:

* One of the closing scenes of the ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries'' "World's Finest" three-parter has a variation. Mercy Graves, in bandages with a broken arm and ribs, laughs at a news report of Harley Quinn being hauled back to Arkham, then winces as the motion sets off her various sore spots.

* One episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheBackyardigans'' has the God of Laughter (Austin) inflict this on Tyrone, resulting in the latter laughing uncontrollably. Like, rolling-on-the-floor-clutching-his-belly-begging-for-mercy laughing.

* Commonly displayed by the [[TricksterTwins Hikaru and Kaoru]] in ''Manga/OuranHighSchoolHostClub'', particularly when they manage to get the better of [[RichInDollarsPoorInSense Tamaki]]. See the episode where Tamaki utterly fails to impersonate Haruhi and resulting OcularGushers from the laughing twins.

** This occurred during the Enies Lobby arc between two members of [[QuirkyMinibossSquad CP9]], Jabra and Kaku, both of whom are [[ShapeShifter Zoan-type Devil Fruit users]]. Jabra is a wolf, and Kaku...is a giraffe. The first time Jabra sees his comrade's transformation, both in full-giraffe and [[PartialTransformation half-giraffe]] forms, he laughs himself silly. Kaku finally tells him to shut it, which Jabra does...for a couple of seconds, upon which Kaku's long ears twitch twice and sends Jabra into gut-busting ''hysterics''. Then Kaku actually starts [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower fighting with it]]. And shears the entire Enies Lobby headquarters [[OhCrap in half]].
** During the Dressrosa arc the villain Pica, who has eaten the Stone Stone Fruit and can turn himself into a stone colossus happens to have a very high, squeaky voice. The sheer dichotomy of TheBigGuy having such a voice causes Luffy, Zoro and some of their allies to bust a gut laughing. It makes Pica go berserk.
* In the third ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'' drama CD, Mami makes Kyoko [[CallingYourAttacks call an attack]] while fighting a witch as payback for when she ridiculed Mami's tendency to give her attacks names.

* In ''Anime/KikisDeliveryService'', Kiki falls victim to this after the bicycle she and Tombo are riding goes over a cliff, but they're miraculously unharmed.
