It was an 18 hour callathon. This happened after 15 hours had passed.. you can just barely make out the clock on the right side.. Anyone would go a little nuts after helping a bunch of people with simple problems and organizing a live tv show for 15+ hours.
 
Yeh I still get his newsletter. Jeez... what a total dork. Holy $*@)$*& hahaha I feel sorry for the guy. No wonder he has to hide behind the net.
 
That happened to me once in a Comm class in college, except I laugh like a man. I'm usually sullen and withdrawn, which is why it was especially funny. I had to read some phrase I can't even remember except that it was about a wooden or severed leg or something and hearing it come out of my mouth was setting me off. My cheeks hurt from trying to stop smiling and chuckling.

This happened Boxing day I believe.. he wasnt fired till mid-march. I think it was more due to ratings.. he just wasnt drawing. That plus the fact that Leo had such a large amount of pull at the station, and I think he was just getting a little greedy and wanted his show back.

He had a laughing fit brought on by lack of sleep and stress.

If you've never had one then you cant understand it, it starts with a silly little thing, maybe slightly amusing and a bit embarassing that you laugh at, then think its funny that you're laughing at it and laugh more and then think how silly you look and laugh even more and finally lose all control of your ability to reason, like the guy in the video.

One of the girls should have asked him if his nuts were salty, he probably would have had a stroke :shocked:
