During the “Ridiculist” segment on Wednesday night’s ‘AC360,’ CNN’s Anderson Cooper delivered a silly, pun-laden soliloquy about French actor Gérard Depardieu urinating in the cabin of a plane.

About mid-way through, right after he delivered a line about how the cleaning crew “should thank their lucky stars this wasn’t Depard-two,” Cooper gets tickled at his own monologue — and that’s when it happened.

Despite repeated attempts to regain his composure, he flops right into full-on teary churchgiggles for a full minute on live television.

It’s nearly impossible to watch without laughing yourself. Check it out — the giggling starts at 2:30:
