I have never been on buzzfed before, so to me this is my "Try Guys." They are part of a show called the Impractical Jokers which airs on TruTV. The show features four best friends, that together do impractical jokes. The clip above is just a short look at Joe Gatto, who is to do everything his friends tell him to do or he loses this challenge. Joe starts off with the challenge of "laser nipples" and if you had seen the previous jokers complete their task you would understand that every joker was asked to complete the "laser nipples" task too. But my favorite part of the clip doesn't happen until Joe is told to get something from the aisle. From this point forward I am a laughing mess. After two challenges whoever has lost the most receives a comical punishment. Although these guys tend to be more crud than the Try Guys, they still add a sense of relief humor to their audience. They are just a group of guys having a good time. Most of their episodes include them messing with random bystanders that are oblivious to what is happening around them. What I find more hilarious than anything is their laughs. As they joke as a whole they start to laugh harder and harder and you can really see that through their jokes their friendship has really grown.
As stated before, they are not the same as the Try Guy, but to me they are. They will do almost anything to avoid being punished because they never know what their friends will think of as a punishment. These jokers never fail to make me laugh. I admire their ability to be so outgoing and willingness to do almost anything to strangers.
(some punishments)


IT seems like this is a more sadistic version of Jackass, although that was pretty sadistic in its own way. I guess though really Jackass was more masochistic, in that it wasn't usually punishments that were being delivered. Does the punishment make it more amusing? Why?
