He talks about one of his experiences while he was working at 19 years of age, saying he saw many things. One time, he saw a man sliding into intersection in Boston and while he was sliding, he saw the man sipping his coffee :)) hahaha. This is funny because, remember our main mantra for comedy " coming against our emotion and logic", we can also say "coming against our expectations or doing the wrong, mistake, negative. Why the wrong is coming against our expectation is, because in our minds everything goes from negative to postive, this is our intention, direction. Wrong is the violiation. Also,on the more embracing term, "coming against our expectation"... Here, we do not expect driver to be so calm to the level that he could sip his coffee at that time! This is the technique of comedy. The subject is " being unnaturally calm in an emergency stiuation"..
Now, do not worry, techniques are comedy are not too complicated. Once you learn the basics, applying them to whole range of subjects-stiuations is not that hard. The subjects of comedy, can be much more, but then again, there is a way to organise that information. This will diminish your load of work.
