[@mattandtom]

I haven't laughed this hard at so little in a long time! --Matt

[@cammarc]

Matt and Tom And the more you tried to keep it in, the harder you laughed. Can’t say it hasn’t happened to me before.

[@612minigun]

Matt and Tom comment posted 2 hours before the video...

[@SirFranex]

The number of views(49) is nearly eaqal to the number of comments(42)

[@CallyGem]

This happens to me all the time, Matt, of course when it does there's always someone who's going to poke the bunny to make it worse. Yes, Tom, I'm looking at you.

[@htmlguy88]

Probably because he's been laughing the whole time.

[@james1234168]

While true: Laugh

[@vitorcurtarelli254]

do { laugh = true; }while (laugh == true);

[@adon155]

If (laugh == false) { laugh == true; };

[@0xTJ]

10 LAUGH 20 GOTO 10

[@mattymerr701]

If you were going for python, "True" should be capitalised and "Laugh" should have parenthesis after it ;p

[@CreeperGreenMC]

for( ; ; ) { Laugh(); }

[@mileskidson1970]

"The bounciest man on the internet"

[@DanteEsGrande]

This sounds like a "ive had a long day, stressed, and ive finally cracked because im tired as hell" sort of laugh haha

[@AalbertTorsius]

"If you have been affected by the issues in this video, caused by the giggling of this man, known for this image, of this video, please call the number on screen now."

[@theswaff699]

There was a number in the subtitles of the screen but it went no where

[@tscimb]

Did you see the cc on this video? It gives the phone number. :)

[@suzannep]

Did you try that number in the CC? And a side point who is Theresa May?

[@extrahourinthepit]

Answering to this cause I'm quite curious but ain't no way I'm wasting 546€ calling abroad to find out

[@RandomVideoGuy-qy8fu]

Where? i couldn't find it in this video

[@dusteddream3070]

This legitimately cheered me up so much today thanks matt

[@ChairDoorMan]

I realized that you haven’t gotten a response I. 2 years, so Hannah if you’re still on this account, here’s a response

[@jasonthehuman]

Here's another

[@coryman125]

None in 2 years, then 10 months, now 2 in 2 days! At this rate you'll be DROWNING in responses any minute now

[@myladycasagrande863]

It's been 2 years, must be time for another.

[@molybd3num823]

Another one

[@JustOneAsbesto]

What percent of the edited bits of Citation Needed are just this?

[@ghostquartzgrey5639]

90%, the other 10% is insults directed at Derek Acorah

[@computersguy13]

It's here we learn how incredibly patient Tom is. We also learn that this happens often enough to where Tom knows there's no point fighting it, and instead he just pulls out his phone. Also, we learn that Matt has a contagious laugh, not only to himself, but to the audience as well.

[@thesnowedone]

Dear god it's addictive - now I'm giggling!

[@HandreyAlex]

You mean seductive?

[@insertusernamehere1160]

erm... contagious?

[@SallyLePage]

This is lovely

[@Wirenfeldt1990]

Heeeey! My favorite biologist!

[@andrewkovnat]

At_first_I_read_this_as_"Love_is_lonely."

[@frereit]

laughly

[@twodollars4u]

this happened to me during an exam once and my teacher almost kicked me out of the classroom but that threat only made the giggling worse

[@vel0city96]

Matt got stuck in an endless while-loop of giggles.

[@jayzo]

while (true) { laugh(); }

[@user-pv7pn3my4r]

#!/usr/bin/python3 while True: laugh()

[@Flutters_Shygal]

while (giggle == 1){ giggle = 1; }

[@DavidBuunk]

while (giggle=1);

[@RobertT1999]

Thank god he had a try catch at the ready when an unexpected overflow occurred otherwise he'd have died...

[@Ben-nk3cx]

The captions for this are auto generated into German! It’s just [Gelächter] [Gelächter] [Gelächter] [Gelächter] [Gelächter] which I presume means laughter... it’s picked up nearly nothing else!

[@thetimetraveller2671]

Wow, so yes, Gelächter is laughter, but why are the captions in German??? ^^

[@viveladecadence]

@@thetimetraveller2671 You can choose German subtitles in the settings of the video. But since those are auto-generated AND in another language, I'd really suggest the English ones. 😁

[@abirbhavgoswami]

Matt.exe has stopped working

[@zacm.2342]

*Files under 'I didn't know I needed this'* Honestly my favourite parts are Tom's actions while he's laughing (not to make fun of you Tom - just don't really see that kind of bouncing laugh often!), and Matt's face at the end when Tom says "It'd be a bad idea to set you off again" it's kind've "I feel guilty but sure I'll do it again" and caught me out a bit. But yeah it's quite nice to just laugh for no particular reason.

[@Halosty45]

The subtitles really helped make this

[@louis.davies]

That's great. Thanks.

[@elbowsbuns1896]

Thanks. Made it even better

[@violetskydiver7684]

...And here we see the wild laughing Matt in its natural habitat...Tom's a bit confused...

[@eblovesdb]

Involuntarily laughter is the best kind.

[@stridenbear]

Not if it goes on passed the stomach hurt and you almost can't breathe

[@Symbioticism]

I would love a video about why people do this if there is any research out there!

[@sirBrouwer]

Symbioticism i kan say from self experience that the sound og laughter can be the reason to start laughing. And the closer you are with the persons around you the stronger it gets. And in a way no one is that close to your self as you are.

[@Zizzily]

Sometimes when you try not to laugh, you end up focusing on the thing that made you laugh to begin with. Kind of like being told to not think about something.

[@JustOneAsbesto]

My current working hypothesis is that it depends on a person's bounciness factor.

[@AaronRenner]

+1 to this. I’ve had involuntary fits of laughter to the point that I start to get really frustrated at the fact that I can’t stop. Would love to see the science behind it if there has been any research into it.

[@DemonofChaos264]

Coupling covers the Giggle loop pretty nicely.

[@Throckmorpheus]

Quality content this

[@tommyrichards1589]

Finn Else-McCormick one week you give an idea next week they use it 😂

[@Zestrayswede]

yes, this is the kind of quality shitposting i subscribed for.

[@Klarden]

[Matt Gray laughing in the background] would be a good caption for many things

[@catherine865]

I laughed along with Matt the whole time

[@ailaG]

Now that's friendship. Matt needs a rest, goes off camera, Tom points another camera at him.

[@ValsLagun]

I've never quit studying to go watch a video so quickly. Matt is such a cinnamon roll ♥

[@OliverONeill]

I'll take 2 of whatever he's on.

[@FoxDren]

Don't "try not to laugh" it'll just make you laugh more. Just let the laugh run its course.

[@NewGalaktos]

“Do not try and stop laughing. That’s impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth.” “What truth?” “There is no joke.”

[@austinheath9439]

That's exactly what happened to me

[@MaraK_dialmformara]

May I teach you to knit so that you can pull off this gag in the future?

[@ThatGirlWithTheCoffee]

It looks like he's tying two knots, he is in no way knitting

[@burgersnchips]

Putting this in my favourites for when I'm having a "down day" - cheered me right up!

[@Spirit532]

He was holding it in really hard at the end

[@kairon156]

I can see the next hand full of videos will be Matt giggling randomly causing Tom to giggle in return.

[@velvetsrose]

Not "my stomach hurts from laughing", it's "my diaphragm hurts"

[@Lahbreca]

Rockin', rockin' and rolling. Down to the beach I'm strolling.

[@theswaff699]

Lahbreca [glares]

[@ziginox]

Tom's face is "I should be annoyed at this, but I'm struggling not to giggle myself"

[@countertenor5890]

Clicked on this because I'm a big Coupling fan.

[@abursh]

Jeff from Coupling taught me about the giggle loop

[@TrevorPike]

I did a quick check, it looks like Coupling defined the term "Giggle Loop". I can't find any references predating it, but Coupling is awesome. _"I've got the keys to the gates of paradise, but I've got too many legs!"_

[@dylgamesh2848]

Not many Americans are going to get that though. I had a huge crush on Gina Bellman a few years back and that's what got me into it.

[@BenVacher]

This is so therapeutic.

[@morsecode42]

Two years later, in these times of uncertainty, anxiety, and fear, this is still my go-to when I need a bit of a laugh! I love it! :)

[@Keslorian]

this could be slowed down and played in horror movies. that would be so much creepier

[@dcs291]

I can now see why you can only spend so long in each other's company!

[@dannela5321]

Aw, man, this has genuinely made me smile so hard my cheeks hurt. It's been a lonely day, and this was pleasant to come across scrolling through old videos on the channel.

[@matthewbowers88]

I’ve had a tough day. This helped. Much love Matt

[@CattoRayTube]

This legitimately was a good pick-me-up!

[@Teverell]

Matt has a nice laugh. The best bit was when Tom just started laughing 'cause Matt was laughing.

[@velourias07]

I love Matt’s laugh ;w;

[@teipi6020]

_makes realistic knitting motion_

[@deliriousdrama2.078]

Laughter is contagious; I love this video

[@TheSmart-CasualGamer]

I love that at 1:02, it suddenly escalates for seemingly no reason at all.

[@nathanhartanto2544]

Thank you. This made my day. This is damn contagious.

[@endersftd]

God I love this video. Watching Matt crack up on Citation Needed is one of my favorite things about the show. This is Matt distilled down into pure laughter and it's great

[@route2070]

Wait, that doesn't happen to everyone. Who hasn't a two to three minute bout of constant laughter? I've never had mine filmed, but still, I have had it, and I thought everyone has.

[@boxes_of_boxes]

Happens to me sometimes, but usually I get stuck in snort-giggle loops. Sometimes I end up on the floor

[@guspus3050]

I had one a couple of days back while watching a movie. The joke wasn't even funny but my sis and I just couldn't stop laughing for several minutes. I was crying and running around to make it stop but we just couldn't! 😂

[@TheElkMaidenn]

I had one the Tuesday just gone. Nothing particularly funny happened, but I was babysitting and teaching two of the older children silly word and improve games to pass the time because the Internet was down and we all just started laughing to the point where just looking at each other set us off again. We were still at it when their mum got home and my diaphragm still hurts.

[@Woodie-xq1ew]

well matt we will have to start calling you alexa

[@DavidLumm]

I'm not sure which is more joyful, Matt laughing or Tom's unimpressed reaction? Perfect!

[@vaughnrl2003]

Nice, now he has me going.

[@mellclune1519]

I love Matt's laugh. It makes me happy.

[@kirstendick1571]

Matt’s giggle is like a babies, impossible not to giggle along to when you watch it for a little bit

[@peachierose3356]

You should do a reaction video to this called “Trying Not To Laugh, 3 years later” or something like this! I bet Matt will laugh in sync with himself in the video!

[@MinecraftTestSquad]

Perpetual motion machiens may not exist, but Matt's Perpetual Laugh Machine does!

[@au5054]

This came out on the perfect day cause I really needed this by the end of it. Thank you

[@yriafehtivan]

Rolling, rolling, rolling like Keith Richards.

[@CreativeWaste]

I am so happy you posted this. Its nice to see how crazy I look when it happens to me.

[@mart9125]

Loving the subtitles :D

[@louis.davies]

Thank you

[@catercoz2491]

You could bottle Matt as a cure for depression.

[@7211_]

Matt has the most contagious laugh, I was laughing along through the whole video

[@casualonion]

This is my one of those videos I'll keep coming back to.

[@TheDundeeBiscuitLuvU]

I'm going to watch this whenever I need cheering up, Matt's laugh is so contagious hahaha

[@katbutnohat_]

I hadn't laughed like that in a VERY long time. Now I'm sat here with tears streaming down my face, giggling my arse off over Matt giggling his arse off over nothing. Thank you

[@charlie-jay]

Matt laughing is good therapy. Genuine laughing is good to see (and hear!).

[@SeriousNERD1]

Thank you Matt, you have made my day a lot better than it was.

Just before the end of the video you hear “feel good” then that baseline kicks in 😂😂

[@AndrewThibeault]

If it makes you feel better, Matt, your laugh is contagious and I was literally laughing the whole time with you. XD

[@RainaRamsay]

Well that's going on my playlist of things that make me happy
