Comedians are always looking for jokes that kill.
One Chrysippus, 3rd century philosopher took this idea way too far, and WAY too literally, when he ACTUALLY died laughing at his own joke! The surprising bit? He isn't the only person in history that has died laughing.
Upon noticing a donkey eating figs, the philosopher asked a slave to give the donkey some wine to wash the figs down. So entertained was Chrysippus by his own proposition, that he laughed himself into the grave...quite literally!
