SchadenfreudeThere's nothing like administering first aid to cyclist who has just spanged into the back of a milk float when you have tears of laughter running down your face. The world is just one long episode of You've Been Framed - when have you laughed at the misfortune of others?

Edinburgh, some years agoI was outside a pub (The Festival Tavern), stook with two friends. It was the summer, the weather was good and people were sitting outside enjoying cold beer. As we were chatting a group appear across the road, rounding the corner. They are shouting across to their mates (the ones sat outside), the lead guys shouts something along the lines of "guess what we jus...." at which point he face plants. Much laughter from the group was had. NO ONE rushed to his aid, in fact i am pretty sure the guys he was crossing the road with walked past him. He swore a bit and eventually got up.
What made it funnier still for me. There was an A-frame outside the pub, which meant that when he hit the deck he disappeared from view. And stayed out of view for several minutes. It was weird to look up and see a guy saying something one sec and then gone the next.
I think it might have been funnier at the time....
