The evolution of laughter has been traced back to falling, according to evolutionary biologists.

According to them, when a member of a group tripped on something, they would laugh as a sign to each other that something was wrong, but it wasn’t too serious.

This is the reason why we find John Cleese’s “Ministry of Silly Walks” and Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) funny.
