Yes, it is possible to die from laughing, but don’t let this stop you from enjoying your favorite sitcom. There are just a handful of reported cases, usually due to intense laughter causing a heart attack or suffocation.
People have also been known to faint from laughing, which can lead to injuries, and some narcolepsy sufferers report temporary losses of consciousness triggered by laughter or other strong emotions. Some very rare fatal brain conditions can cause uncontrollable laughter.
