What's the hardest you've ever laughed? What happened? (it doesn't have to be a good story!)

This week's question and prompt are brought to you by Sam Ketcham, aka frontman of Harlow. Psst- Give Harlow a listen and a follow. Thanks, Sam!
Some of my favorite memories involve gut-wrenching, tear-inducing, “please stop, it hurts” laughter.
From laying in your bunk before bed at summer camp to a moment of silence in a church pew, the best laughs come at the most inappropriate times and often, with just a thought, keep you cackling through the years.
So here’s to the best medicine, the purest form of joy, and, let’s be honest, one of the best things about being alive. Welcome to Chuckle Wednesday.
What's the hardest you've ever laughed? What happened? (it doesn't have to be a good story!)
I am sure there were other events. I think I was 15. It was a jeep ride up a trail on pikes peak. 4 kids I don't even remember who they were. Some kids from some friends of my parents. We were bouncing along and just started laughing every time we hit a bump. It lasted the whole trip. It was epic.
One that comes to mind happened at our cabin. Daughter Annie sang all the parts to Book of Mormon- the harder I laughed the louder she sang. Another- I had a job in college waiting tables. One of my coworkers, Jim, would walk up to me at a table and hand me a note like he was informing me that we were out of the daily special or something. Instead he had drawn a picture of an unfortunate guest at the table. It was impossible not to laugh- it was a fun job because we were laughing all the time.
