Two weeks ago, the world fell in love with Micah, a baby boy who couldn’t help but burst into laughter every time his dad tore up a piece of paper. The video received over 1 million views on Yahoo! UK alone and was shared by more than 22,000 users.
Laughing baby videos are nothing new, but the way they can brighten even the most miserable of days is probably what makes them so timeless and universally popular. Who doesn’t love seeing a fresh faced newborn find sublime pleasure in the simplest of everyday activities?
The latest sure-to-be-a-web-sensation takes a somewhat different spin on the laughing baby. Sure, five-month-old baby Emerson is full of giggles, but when he hears his mum blow her nose, his bright bubbly demeanour quickly turns to absolute terror.

There are many other baby video favourites from the past, such as this duo of giggling babies. Twins Peyton (left) and Brennan (right) were just four months old when this video of the brothers laughing hysterically hit the web in 2007. Since then it’s reached the height of baby video stardom with almost 50 million views to date.

Some babies, like ten-month-old Theo, find modern technology absolutely hilarious. He simply cannot hold it together while his Dad plays a quick round of Wii golf. Theo’s laughter has been viewed 18 million times since the video was uploaded in 2007.

Much like our fingerprints, each one of us has a distinct and unique laugh. Couple that with a baby’s inability to control their giggles, and you’re often left with hilarious results, like this toddler having a field day during a snack session. His hilarious cackle has been seen over 23 million times since it went live in 2007.
