Watch the BBC first on iPlayer 👉 bbc.in/iPlayer... Bonobo chimps, one of our closest relatives, seem to have discovered the secret of happy, long lasting relationships…and laughter definitely helps!
For centuries it was thought that animals did not share the same emotions as us but new science is starting to change that view. Liz Bonnin sets out to explore the complex and diverse relationships that animals have and asks whether animals love.

"Look how cute he laughs"
*Ape actually having a stroke*
“A AGH AGA GAHAHAG AGH AGH AGH AGHA GAH AGAAGA” lol
LMFAOOOO
😂😂😂
LOL Watefak!!🤣
Hahahahahaahhaah
I've said it before and I'll say it again, bonobos are the hippies of the ape world. How chilled were they?
Laughing, who would have thought it.
Benjamin Matić so no different to humans then?
You can only be a cannibal if you eat your own species.
Not that I'm disagreeing with you but I do know for a fact that chimpanzees hunt and kill monkeys occasionally.
Isn't that part of what made humans human we became omnivores?
'Cannibal hippy monkeys' sounds like the title of a really bad horror movie from the 60's XD
My farts smell like tomato, cheese, and basil. My farts smell like pasta. Should I be worried or horny?
ferrariteddy I'd say your nose was too near your backside.
Ali CG In the wild don't they have sex everyday with anyone in their group? Like..it's not even for mating, they do it like a hug. >v>
YouJustGotKnocked TheBarackOut it does seem that way, they actually think that is part of the reason why they are so chilled!
tickling....FOR SCIENCE
+FemorteFatal why not
FemorteFatal Yes and they started laughing like humans do..
Ether ikr.......
Sounds like something Glados would do.
what u mean?
Bruh idk about y’all but when I laugh when I’m being tickled I don’t want you to continue I just can’t help laughing
True for most people i think
Because it reminds us that we are vulnerable.
But it's a bonding activity anyway
I hate being tickled i get asma. the mom of a friend used to tickle their kids as a punish for bad behivour. I think is torture
PushTo STARt it doesn’t just remind us... we are vulnerable. I feel like tickling can be a power thing when done in an intentionally painful way. Like I honestly think we shouldn’t call it tickling, it had such a goofy and lighthearted connotation
It’s so weird how apes have an expression that looks like their clueless and in deep thought at the same time
I think they are deeply immersed in the moment.
@David Vance I agree
to think early humans also looked like that is interesting
@@417Owsy I DIDN'T COME FROM NO GODDAMN APE! I am an ape! An ape of God!
@@shamusbob7969 You are an ape of god and you are also just an ape
This programme is great. And Bonobo's are too cute!
New video plz
"Mom, can I go to the swimming pool?"
Mom: "We have swimming pool at home"
Swimming pool at home : 2:29
Edward ¡999 LMAOOO
This comment is so underrated
Imagine doing back strokes on grass.
lmfao hes swimming in the grass
omg im actually lauphing that monkey
1:01 he makes a little squeak and hands down it's the most adorable, human-like thing I've ever heard come from a chimp
That's actually a Bonobo
@@g-fanmax1838 thank you lmao I'm so used to saying "bonobo chimp" since they were thought to be chimps for so long 😅✌🏽
hahahaha 2:27 casually doing the backstroke on grass #chilllife
😂😂
Lawrence Hernandes swimming through grass! haha good money
It's probably suffering from fleas and was just scratching its back.
Lawrence Hernandes sz
Jesus walks on water, Bonobos swim on land
This is the cutest thing I have ever seen. Seriously thank you so much for sharing. I can't stop grinning like a total goof *g*
at 0:11 i wasn't sure what happened to it's head... but then i realised... 😂😂😂
hilarious.........
WOW 😵
omg me too XD, I thought his head looked quite unusual.
Me too, I thought it was a decapitated bonobo that could still function and move, I was pretty creeped out for a few seconds!
I'm laughing so hard right now! I had to go back and look and was horrified for about 2.5 seconds. Looked like a really hairy headless turkey. lmao
Absolutely nobody I know likes being held down and tickled
the people in my family that hate being tickled are the ones with the worst interaction skills and have issues with respect. they are always hiding something and are ruled by their fears.
Curiously, I have noticed that the people who hold down others and tickle them are the ones with the worst interaction skills. Perhaps they are the reason why others around them are secretive and fearful of them.
Tickle torture is regarded as so dehumanizing that it is the only form of torture that is referenced directly in the Third Geneva Convention, which provides guidelines for treatment of prisoners of war. Tickle torture is a particularly cruel interrogation method in which a feather, or sometimes an entire feather dusting implement, is applied to the bare skin on the bottom of a subject’s foot. The tickling sensation immediately elicits full-body convulsions and horrific screaming laughter, often causing the subject to urinate on himself.
Historically, torturers would bind a person, dip their feet in salt water, and allow goats to lick their feet. In some instances, people were actually tickled to DEATH.
During WWII, Nazis tickled their prisoners. From Heinz Heger's book The Men With The Pink Triangle: "The first game that the SS sergeant and his men played was to tickle their victim with goose feathers, on the soles of his feet, between his legs, in the armpits, and on other parts of his naked body. At first the prisoner forced himself to keep silent, while his eyes twitched in fear and torment from one SS man to the other. Then he could not restrain himself and finally he broke out in a high-pitched laughter that very soon turned into a cry of pain."
One who enjoys tickling an unwilling victim is a sadist who enjoys inflicting pain and dominating and controlling others.
And drinking 6 Lts of water at once causes water intoxication and death. Anyone handling you a glass of water is a sadist who secretly wants to murder the person he/she's giving water to. **rolls eyes**
How on earth do you conflate the obvious sadism of 'tickling an unwilling victim' to 'handing someone a glass of water'?
If you do not see a difference between the two, you should not be allowed to interact with other living beings.
Humans laughing: hahahaha
Bonobos laughing: kekekekekeke
This was so adorable, I can't even pretend otherwise.
When I hear Bonobos giggle, I can't help but giggle with them. It brings so much joy to my heart. :)
If only Koba had been so well socialized.
That still bothers me.
Like, that movie had the potential to create an entire faction where the Orangutans and Bonobos form an alliance to oppose the attempts of Chimps and Gorillas to go to war with the humans.
I would love to imagine that a lot of humans would join the Bonobo cause, with our many similarities. While the more socially-conservative humans would fixate on "war is a necessity" and "it's us or them".
The entire dynamic of the show would pain a more optimistic view of humanity as we fight between our potential for great peace or great war.
Had he not been tortured in a med lab for most of his life he would likely exhibit more Bonoboesque qualities.
Koba you piece of shit!!
Jack Coleman I know, right?!
Looking forward to when the Apes take over, or Sky net, anyone but Trump.
Love the laughter! But he needed a break to get a breath! Just to cute.
0:11 BRUH I WAS FRIKKIN SCARED TO DEATH FOR A SECOND I THOUGHT HEAD CAME OFF XDDDDDDDD
I'm dying xD I thought the same thing hahaha
OH GOD LMFAO
me too :))
OMG 😂😂
IT TOOK ME SO MUCH TO REALIZE IM DYING😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
“In the name of science, we’re going to tickle him.”
"Safe and sound" at the end made my day
“Play is a safe way to test the boundaries of a relationship”
Hold that thought, I need to invite my crush to a game of cards...
Oh sure sure, when THEY tickle it's for "science", but when I do it, I'm "making grandpa have a seizure" and "no longer allowed in the retirement home". Smgdh.
1:55 watch the one in the background - his face says - "uh oh, you're in trouble now!" so cute ❤
*LOL* He even triedto run away as well
soooo it's a good thing that my girlfriend laughs during sex
kostis metallo and she looks like a bonobo
kostis metallo
My sex doll never laughs, her facial expressions never change and it's starting to piss me off. After sex she just lays there, with her mouth wide open.

Aw bonobos are just the best. we should consider it an honour our bloody genus even shares kinship with this hippy species. In their metaphorical history, bonobo Adam and Eve never left Eden.
That's a perfect analogy, too. The theory is that the Garden of Eden was based on our lives before agricultural society.
If that's the case, and the Garden of Eden was indeed the Fertile Crescent, I would think that we "Left Eden" and THEN "ate from the tree of knowledge", because stagnant civilization based on agriculture seemed to spring up out of necessity after the middle-east started drying up.
History books treat agriculture like it was this great human triumph that resulted in easier lives. But everything turned to shit, and it took thousands of years before the quality of life caught back up to where hunter-gatherers were.
They didn't ate the fruit of knowledge, they just smoked the weed of love.
@@webx135 that's actually a really good analogy also. Never thought about it like that
That's funny because in his lectures about the psychologycal meaning of the bible, jordan peterson theorises that the story of adam and eve falling out of heaven symbolises the turning point of when us humans became rational animals
Lol good metaphor. I wish I were Adam just f'ing all the time.
The video: Lets make a Bonobo laugh
The title: making a Chimpanzee laugh
I DONT NEED SLEEP. I NEED ANSWERS!!!
Their laugh is a bit creepy for me, but I love it at the same time. So cute.
Bonobos are so sweet! They are sooooooooooooooooo cute when they laugh! Gosh!
Fun fact: If giggling baby Bonobos don't make you smile you might not have a soul.
Their is no evidence for a soul so i'm fine with that.
@@nealgrimes4382atheists try not to make everything about atheism challenge go
1:13 u could hear the baby laugh fart too 😂😂😂
When someone tickles me and I laugh, doesn’t mean I want you to keep going, lol
Bonobos. Spending their days playing, laughing, eating, screwing... sounds pretty damn good to me.
"It's so important that they continue to play as adults. And that's unusual in the animal kingdom."
Lol! I'm definitely related to Bonobos then!
I STILL laugh EVERY FREAKIN TIME I watch this... I think to myself... what a wonderful world.
The conceit in humans is amazing, the way we assume everything we do is unique.
Omg the song they play at the end is capital cities safe and sound! It is my favorite song ever! I play it so much it's like my mantra. I even have it as a ringtone!
This video released the stress I felt in my chest. ❤❤❤
i just fell in love! precious precious creatures. love the giggles....more more more!
"Scientists have only recently discovered that laughter is not unique to humans..."
Well all they needed to do was open their eyes.
I mean, unless you're privy to some information that's known to basically everyone except scientists, this statement doesn't make a lick of sense. And just so there's no misunderstanding here: Rhetoric about scientists being wrong, or religious views, or hippie pseudoscience... yeah, those won't fly.
Oh god here they come...lmao the miserable do gooders of the inernet here to correct everyone
And their ears.
@@Asterra2 Wow what is it like being all knowing? Being able to tell everyone else what is the "right" way? You are by far one of the biggest butt dumplings I have ever seen.
@@EdsterIII then i'm afraid you haven't seen that many butt dumplings in life.
That is the most adorable thing I have ever seen....just dying!!!!
I know it's a weird compliment but this has truly AMAZING videography! It looks like a feature film and we got to see the people's faces and monkey's cute reactions so vividly as if we were there and we even saw the boom guy! Amazing work videographer!
yh i agree
Laughter and joy are healing, connecting, and essential. Life lessons thru others.
Video title: "Making a chimp laugh"
Actual video: *makes a bonobo laugh*
EDIT: I know bonobos are a type of chimp, I was just being specific, or trying to make a joke, I dunno.
They are another species of Chimp. The other name for the Bonobo is Pygmy Chimpanzee. So I guess it still counts.
@@pierrebegley2746 I guess.
@@pierrebegley2746 but this a good peaceful chimpanzees the others a dangerous and killed people
Bonobos are a kind of chimp
@@Rubywing4 does really anyone other than someone who studies monkeys know and/or care about the difference between a chimp and a bonobo
Best video of Capital Cities
2:27 aha just swiming on the grass
😂
I hope Bonobos inherit the earth when we're gone.
@zs 02 I think nihilistic humor is becoming all that's left to us.
Omg!! I am bursting at the seams lol I love him 😩😂😍😍😍😍😍😍 he is so cute I can’t handle it😭😍🥰🤗💗🙏🏻 bless his beautiful pure soul 💖
I think I purely just fell in love with Bonobos
Bonobo's are such fascinating creatures... So relaxed and chilled out.
Then you have typical Chimps which are hairy little psychos...
Humans are.. weirdly somewhere in the middle... Prone to both ridiculous levels of aggression, but also being completely relaxed and benevolent..
@TheCatsMeow PrettyHorses We're primates, you idiot.. It's very much the same.. Let me guess, you also think god made us in his image and that the world is flat...
This is the cutest god damn thing
Laughter is the closest expression of pure joy that I know of. It’s healing.
I want to be reborn as a bonobo.
Living happily in a society that doesn't see me as something to profit on in exchange for few brain cells seems worth it.
Gigatony fuck you dio
@ArchRetard Nick Well, Fuck you too,
I don't. They're still very stupid compared to us.

Man :L Doctor I am depressed ..
Doctor : How depressed?
Man : VERY depressed
Doctor : Ok 5 Bonobo videos a day for a week...
A WEEK LATER
Doctor : How do you feel?
Man : GREAT I am moving to the Congo.
Doctor: GROOVY ! say hi to Mobutu!
Just like in "The Book of Mormon" of South Park creators. =)
Gets ebola
You said it SO well.
That's not depression but sure
best line in this video....... " in the name of science we going to TICKLE them ".
the face of tht guy whn thy were doing it
this is the cutest thing i have ever seen
These creatures are so cute and what I find even more amazing is the fact that they don't kill.
"The researchers have seen three instances of successful hunts in which bonobos captured and ate their primate prey. In two other cases, the bonobo hunting attempts failed." - from the LiveScience article "Bonobos Hunt Other Primates"
Omg their giggling gets me 🤣
Why is the title called making chimps laugh but the video is about making bonobos laugh?
Technically they are chimps
Not COMMON chimps but the same genus
I THINK LAUGHTER IS SO VERY IMPORTANT ! KEEP UP THIS EXCELLENT WORK !
Aww this is sweet. It's all fun and games till it tears your face and hands off.
Recluse bro listen to 2:19
bonobos aren't aggressive unlike chimps
@Recluse why this negativity?
what i wouldn't give to have just 20 minutes with a trampoline filled with little bonobo babies to play with
What I see: A bonobo toddler laughing being tickled by their carers.
What self-made peta volunteers see: A bonobo being hurt, maimed, forced into mimicing a laugh, pressured and poached.
Thanks for ruining the mood of the video
The mood was ruined way before I made that comment xD
*****
xD
+Joseph Bertini Just remember: those self-made PETA volunteers are incredibly miserable shits who can find absolutely no joy in their own lives.
+CobNasties fat
This video gives me joy
Rats laugh too, and they like to be tickled provided they trust you.
chimps are lunatics, at least a bonobo and a gorilla would give you a hug lol
Make him laugh without "tickling" him. That would be something
What a gift it would be to be able to play with these kids!
"They continue to play as adults- and that's unusual in the animal kingdom"
-The makers of this video must have never met a Labrador Retriever, lol.
domesticated animals dont really fit into the animal kingdom though, do they?
I thought I had a funny laugh. I could not help but laugh with him. XD
Tickling is actually torture
So fascinating. It makes me think of playing with my dogs. Dogs don't laugh, but I definitely noticed body language that had equivalent meanings. I even noticed a particular posture that was one making fun of the other for a blunder, and the one getting made fun of would often raise their fur and act pissed. It was too funny. I miss my doggies.
I know when I laugh while being tickled it is definitively not me saying , I want more”.
Oh come on if it's done playfully and not forced then it can be fun.
Are you a chimp?
In the name of science,, that was incredible laughter. Lol!

THANK YOU KIND SIR
Yes, was just trying to figure it out! Thank you
Thank you sir
Hi BBC! Bonobos are not chimps or "bonobo chimps." They are an entirely different species that needs protection - which starts with awareness. Please update your title and description! The bonobos in this video, who live at Lola ya Bonobo sanctuary, are orphans from the illegal international trade in wildlife, and they need the help of people willing to protect them. Thank you for showing how wonderful bonobos are! Let's continue to make more people aware of these peaceful primates!
Random chimp event is near everyone get prepared
In the name of science… we couldn’t be bothered to get the video title correct.
Hey thats the soraka that got me demoted :)
you boosted animal
I’m sorry but if I’m pinned to the floor or couch being aggressively tickled and I’m crying and laughing, I do not want to continue 😂
I did the same thing to a bum earlier today, ironically he looked identical. Although I don't think he was laughing from the tickle...it was definitely the heroine
Bonobos are the lucky chimps who don't live in violent societies
Bonobos continue to play as adults, "and that is unique in the animal kingdom."
Except for dogs, domestic cats, big cats, whales and dolphins, people and chimps, crows, ravens and magpies, pigs, seals, bears, wolves, pandas, cows, horses, kangaroos, mice... more recently scientists have found evidence that alligators, crocodiles, turtles, fish, octopus, and even insects play. www.sciencenews.org/blog/wild-things/five-surprising-animals-play
anyone care to offer more examples?
Media Stereotypes there was a Discover article a while back that also included geckos playing with a loose ID tag and juvenile spiders playing at mating rituals... discovermagazine.com/2017/june/the-plays-the-thing

Thanks for the link. I will check it out.
I have found a few BBC Animal shows that are pretty lacking in some of their assertions and basic facts. They did a similar one on Orca Whales over-analyzing the whales playing in the waves of a moving boat. Sometimes the answers are a lot more simple than animal behaviorists want to admit. As well, most times, animal behavior is far less limited in scope than than assumed by behavioral researchers. I do love the animals - they are marvelous!
Insects play? Please don't take it the wrong way when I say _fuck right off with that bollocks!_ Not having it. It. I. Not, Having. Am. Playing? The publication you cite seems legit - no creationsts in the closets so far as I can see - nonetheless, ending the section on insects with the sentence: "But those behaviors (sic) do look a lot like the play fighting seen among mammal species, the researchers say" is cringeworthy and not fit to be published in a reputable scientific journal.
It is good to check your sources. "Science News" cited here is a legit non-profit for the promotion of science and science education, but bear in mind it is not a research journal or for the publication of peer-reviewed papers; it is a news magazine specialising in science.
BBC documentaries however, make for some glorious images, but I would recommend taking the narration with a pinch of salt. The misinformation presented in their nature films are abundant, and sometimes quite fundamental errors. The BBC is not an educational institute, but one of entertainment. For the true facts I would always recommend checking what the professionals in the particular field(s) in question have to say. Which ultimately means scientists rather than the medium of news and entertainment.
"that's UNUSUAL in the animal kingdom"..but yeah...all species continue to play as adults obviously not as much as toddlers but yeah
Bonobos are so awesome. Such peaceful creatures! Man kind learn something from them.
Actually, studies have shown that they've been known to hunt other primates.
Let’s also acknowledge how beautiful our human experts look!
For real thoughh
chimps and bonobos are my favorite animals!
Now I know what species is my brother
A cousin more like but yea I agree they behave a lot like humans
@@Robespierre-lI yh DNA Levels
I wonder if anyone has ever tried to introduce and integrate a human baby, a baby bonobo, a baby chimpanzee, a baby gorilla, a baby orang utang, a baby macaque and all of the other species of primates, and study how they interact and behave?
That is something that I would definitely like to see.
Contrary to the title, these are NOT actually "chimps".
They are so pure
Why is this called "Making a chimp laugh" if these are bonobos?
They are truly amazing animals
2:00 she laughs like a bonobo... 0:46
