this isnt funny and neither are the vines of girls being pushed, punched, hit, and made to slip and fall they really aren’t funny and if u find this funny id like to congratulate u for having the worst sense of humour in existence

to delve into the nature of slapstick comedy for a moment, it’s funny because people like to laugh at the misfortune of others.  the girl here doesn’t seem to be seriously injured by the fall, and having your pants catch on fire won’t kill you.  what’s really going on here is the girl made aseries of very foolish choices.  first off, twerking isn’t the greatest dance move, and doing it upside down doesn’t enhance it.  past that, she decided to twerk upside down in front of a DOOR.  behind some LIT CANDLES on a GLASS TABLE.  really, there was no way that it would have turned out alright.  the girl could do with some humiliation, because as bad as it turned out, it really could have been worse.  she could have died.  so, having a laugh is good for her in a way, as she probably learned that if you do really absurdly stupid things and post them on the internet, people will laugh at you.

It’s a good thing Jimmy Kimmel was there with a fire extinguisher in hand to help her out.
