how would it be staged, it was a Belgian show and the disabled guy had really high voice, so he thought it was funny.. with how the guy was laughing, no way it was staged IMO

"The stories are as intreging as fictional and have special attention for the 'common man' as he is displayed on television.
The reporters are as fictional as perverted. They do not look for sensational stories or statements, but they look more for small failures or painfull moments.
In de gloria isn't a fullblood humoristic program. The reports are sometimes harsh, tragicomic or intreging. The stories are no scetches, but evolve around a certain object or a -most of the time uncomfortable - situation. The interviewed are no 'typetjes'* but ordinary people of flesh and blood. The reports are closer to reality than meets the eye." "

btw pv, you are wrong...

some german 'news show' reported about some similar incident on german tv, a talk show, some surprising shit and the host was laughing like hell and couldnt stop...

and that news show referred to that belgian show... but they had to correct their statement the day after, as THIS was a comedy show wich produced 'realistic' reports, BUT is comedy! it's all just a comedy show:

this sketch is the 'Boemerang-Sketch', their most successful.

A shortened version of the "Boemerang" sketch from the show gained popularity on YouTube. It features a presenter of a serious talk show breaking into fits of giggles after hearing the voice of one of his guests, who spoke in a squeaky manner due to a failed tonsilectomy. The clip is often mistaken for being real, and was showcased on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Star Channel news as being so.

The fictitious laughing presenter "Erik Hartman" is a character played by Tom Van Dyck, a Flemish comedian and actor. The two guests are portrayed by Lucas Van Den Eynde (as Valair) and An Miller (as Marijke). The full version of the sketch shows the Hartman character as a radio DJ looking back upon the giggling incident that had caused him to be fired.
