Today's tropes is the Corpsing
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/corpsing

"Corpsing" (also called "breaking") is actor-speak for having an unscripted fit of laughter onstage, so-called because the worst time to have the giggles is when one is playing a corpse. Corpsing doesn't necessarily mean that the material is especially funny (though, of course, it can be), or that the actors aren't taking it seriously; it just happens, and even excellent actors can corpse. Many actors try to cover this by covering their mouth and muffling the sounds they make. When this is done, a fit of laughter can rather haphazardly be turned into violent sobbing, with varying levels of success.

scene starts 1 minute into the video. It might be my favorite because the guy acting with him makes no attempt to hide his laughter and they just left it in anyway.

I'm still fairly certain this falls outside the realm of the trope since it's scripted....
