Jacob Hurlock, an A level politics student at The King Alfred School, delves into the subjectivity of humour and strives to find out why different groups of people find different things funny. Jacob is in Year 13 studying Economics, Politics and History. He looks at how humour can bring us together, but also keep us apart, and why we all need to think carefully before making a joke. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
