At times laughter is part of a defence mechanism.

My xx girlfriend was offended while her late Father's casket was being lowered into the ground, his friend was laughing. Aside from the xxgf who was choked up, I thought it was nice how everyone understood it and let the laughing man be, while this sweet little old lady sang acapella like a bird while the box went down.

Another funeral I was at was celebratory. I recorded his sons do a final toast by his open casket by the ditch, he then emptied the rest of the bottle of Absolute Vodka on his Father's dead body and closed the casket. Minutes later a guy on a ukulele started shredding away while we chanted...

🎼I don't want, the mash up you're married wiiiiife......I don't want to mash up your married wiiiiife..... ( High then low and again )

If someone laughs I think it's fine.

Comedic Sociopathy mostly, Black Comedy somewhat, and an immediate ingroup ego boost versus the sudden outlier. 

As an inversion, laughing as the one who got hurt seems to confuse people.

Yeah the more severe the injury or pain I personally am experiencing the harder I laugh 

 

one time I slammed my hand in a door and like busted my hand up soooo bad it was bleeding profusely out of my fingers 

 

and I was just holding it over the sink and looking at it just laughing maniacally for like 10/15 minutes

I did the same thing when I broke my arm 

 

and I was in a hospital waiting to see the doc and I was laughing at a clock 

 

I don’t remember why 

 

I was like laughing at nothing basically and finding comedy in every inanimate object and nearby person 

 

i couldnt even stop cracking up when the doctor came to talk to me 

 

he was like explaining what they were going to have to do and I was like holding back the laughter as best I could but like not really well 

 

and my friend apologized for me and then he was like “oh it’s ok this reaction happens a lot”

It looked like you were possibly sincerely asking a question, but after elaboration it turned out you weren't interested so much in an answer as you were in another opportunity for self-expression.
