Welcome to Crawlspace. In this episode Tim Pilleri, Lance Reenstierna and Jennifer Amell speak about the The Tanganyika Laughter Epidemic of 1962. For 18 months in 1962 a contagious laugher epidemic struck Tanganyika spreading to 14 schools and temporarily closing many. What caused it? We dig into it.
