Question

There was a greek philosopher who died laughing at his own joke

Answer 1

Answer:

Death from laughter? Is that even a thing? Apparently, yes. It is a rare form of death, which causes cardiac arrest, asphyxiation or a loss of consciousness, triggered by a fit of serious giggles. This weird way of dying has actually been reported since ancient times, with one particular case that occurred with Chrysippus, a stoic philosopher who died at the age of 73
