I do and I've seen other people laugh as well, but then they won't admit they laughed later. I'm not talking about serious injury, just stuff like someone walking into a glass door...

I do and feel a little bad afterwards, but I laughed because I thought it was hilarious. I work at a preschool and tend to laugh to myself before actually asking the kid if he/she is okay after something happens. I like to laugh at myself too, so maybe I find humor in small things. I think the worst was when I was on a date and some waiter knocked a metal tray into my date's head. I automatically laughed as did my date and then finally asked if he was okay.

If the person getting hurt is at least half-way smiling or laughing I probably would laugh, along with "are you OK" thrown in. But what bothers me are these video clips people send into to the "America's Most Funny----" type shows, I just know some of those people falling off bikes, or whatever, are probably hurting! I can't watch some of those.

Depends on how much i know the person.
If its someone i really care about (family and close friends, etc), I'm betting my hearts' gonna stop for a split second and my mind would process what just transpired. and then id react, may it be to help them out or just check if they're OK.
If its a total stranger, id probably laugh my head off right then and there! ha ha

Well it's sort of funny if they're not really hurt. Actually it's better to laugh then to be all serious, because that would be more embarrassing for them.

yes i laugh when some1gets hurt(my best friend will tell ya)and my mom is the same way. i read somewhere that laughing when some1 gets hurt is actually a nervous response not necessarily being mean or ignorant. aka the "nervous laugh."

yes, unless of course it is really serious, I think it is a natural reaction. I laugh when I get hurt too.
