As I wrote, the laughter is, in my understanding, merely a symptom; the body produces it in an attempt to cope. Attempt laughing out loud right now out of the blue; how does it sound? You will most likely not be able to keep it up for very long. Laughter is produced when our mind is amused/confused. Consider the following; what kind of confusion and elation would you have to go through to laugh out loud while someone is disrespecting you, destroying your body? It is my belief that focusing on the elation while you are being hurt without consent is no different than taking pleasure in destroying oneself.
Alternative example: How would you feel about someone cutting their wrists open with a razor blade while laughing with glee? I see little difference between that situation and feeling pleasure while one is under heavy torture. I believe it carries a certain hatred for the body and a desire to falsify it. Attempting to reproduce such effect willingly is, in my opinion, a very confused move.
