Why do we love watching people get hurt? Fall on their asses. We laugh at it, so we can't hate it. Programs like AFV showing countless of clips where people fall, get hit, hurt and so on. Or we read sites like FMyLife. A site that includes various types of incidents that makes peoples life hell.
Is it simply because it's funny? I don't think that's all there is to it. Some people seem to think that people who are depressed think they are alone about it. People who have gone through something horrible, might think they're all alone. That something like this never happened to anyone else. But I honestly don't think that we're more miserable because we might think we're alone in the shit we're in. So that would be the reason why we love seeing others pain and misery.
No. Quite frankly, I think we just need to know someone has it worse than ourselves. That maybe we have it bad, but at least someone is worse off.
