The author says there is diaphragm cave-in that has to happen for laughter to occur, preceded by the mind noticing contradictory ideas or acts and their unexpected unification.
A politician went to a town in Southern Somalia, in 1960s, and had asked the residents to vote for him because he will build a bridge that links their town to Yemen. The bridge would extend thousands of miles and have to also cover the Red Sea which divides Somalia and Yemen. Somalis laugh at this because they knew it was impossible at the time to do such things because there was no reason for it. Why build it?
