Both sources use laughter to make a bad situation worse and to ease the tension. The both have a great sense of optimism and out look on life and that is critical when your in a bad situation like that. In the video they talk about how many injured war veterans come home and are just down and depressed. This is why I also use laughter and joke around when I'm in a bad situation or when something bad happens. It helps me from getting all depressed and makes living much more enjoyable. Towards the end of my sophomore year and then again at the beginning of my junior year in high school I dislocated my knee. This was really tough on my because it meant that my career as a high school athlete was pretty much over. But instead of getting down I joked around about it and made the best of my situation and was able to play sports again my senior year.
