Schadenfreude
There'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?

More Train...
Not strictly misfortune of others but...
I was sat at the main station in my town, reading a book (ironically the Viz "Profanisaurus" as it turns out) sat on a bench next to a family of five, mum, dad, two girls and an older girl who was obviously a little mentally disabled. She was dancing around singing and messing about and generally enjoying herself whilst the rest of the family chatted. Without warning she stopped dancing, dropped a fart that would have drowned out any waiting train and then carried on without missing a beat.!
The family issued sounds ranging from amusement (the dad and daughters) to disgust and a light bollocking (mumsie) but it was all too much for me and I suddenly descended from a state of innocence to shaking mirth with tears streaming down my face, much to the hilarity of the entire family.
Maybe that was actually my misfortune.!
