We just can't get enough of Anderson Cooper's adorable laugh. 

In honor of CNN's 35th anniversary, the network has released a four minute and 15 second blooper reel highlighting some of the more embarrassing moments any live news network is bound to experience. 

While the entire clip is sure to make you laugh out loud, our favorite part has to be Cooper's epic fail from 2011 when he simply couldn't contain himself and burst into a fit of giggles in an attempt to make a potty mouth pun. 

The viral moment appropriately occurred during the "Ridiculist" segment of Anderson Cooper 360 when the 47-year-old journalist was reporting the story about French film icon Gérard Depardieu peeing on a plane.

But unfortunately, the giggles really got to Cooper when he pointed out that the incident could've been much worse if Depardieu had happened to relieve himself of something more. 

"All I have to say is they should thank their lucky stars it wasn't Depar-two," he said, beginning a rapidly downward descent into a giggle fit. "Sorry. That made me giggle every time I read it."

Of course, this isn't the first time Anderson has lost it on air. He previously couldn't contain his laughter during a 2014 Ridiculist segment while sharing a story about a man who got stuck in a sculpture that resembled a vagina. 

"I'm certainly no expert on the topic of..." Anderson says in the video, pausing as he reads the teleprompter to giggle. "Vaginas...They really aren't my wheelhouse, so to speak. But I know enough to know that you're not supposed to go in feet first."
