Why do people laugh when being tickled - Some evidence suggests that laughing associated with tickling is a nervous reaction that can be triggered. Indeed, very ticklish people often start laughing before actually bein g tickled. Men and women are just as “ticklish”. But a few studies suggest that, if either, men may be slightly more ticklish than women.  85 per cent of adults in some way or another enjoy being tickled, tickling others, or watching others being tickled. An odd tickle!! One of the oldest and strangest ways of fishing (called trickling) is still used today by an old New Zealand Tribe.  The fishermen wade out into the waters of streams or lakes, making sure that they move quietly so the water doesn’t ripple. The fish in these waters dart in and out of rocks or clumps of coral, and sometimes hide there for quick naps.  The fishermen sneak up behind the fish, reach down, and tickle the fish’s sides. As the fish tries to wriggle away, the fisherman grabs it with his bare hands and holds tightly to his slippery supper. You can also tickle people by using a feather. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickling
