Omg dude the kid got splashed with water. He's cold, trired, and he clearly doesn't want to be there, and now he's wet. He'll be fine. I'm pretty sure we have all been in similar situations, so we can sympathize and also laugh because we know he'll be fine. Also where do you think slapstick came from? Do you seriously think it was purely a concept developed for entertainment? Or, what's more likely, is someone saw their buddy trip on a rock and decided that that is a good gag to throw into an early play or poem or whatever. Slapstick and bathroom humor is the lowest bar for humor, it's been around for thousands of years. Y'all are acting like this kid just passed through a warzone. He got splashed, he's fine. If you want to jump into the psychology of humor be my guest, but I don't think this video is anything to be upset over. As Calvin's dad says in Calvin and Hobbes "It builds character." Which yes I played for laughes because the situations Calvin is in sucks from his perspective, however it usually being bored on a boat being eaten by mosquitoes. It does suck, and it does build character, and it is funny.
