The Psychology of Sharing Fear and Pranks
In this chapter, they discuss the psychology behind sharing fear and pranks. They talk about a cheap prank where one person pretends to be scared and another prank where a person is made to believe that they are invisible. They also touch on the idea that laughter may have originated as a way for monkeys to signal that a perceived danger was no longer a threat. They find it interesting how comedy and laughter provide relief and soothe us.
