Funniest Instagram Videos……Okay, so you know when you’re just mindlessly scrolling Instagram at like midnight, telling yourself “just one more reel” — and then suddenly it’s 2:37 AM and your phone battery is on 3% and you’re laughing so hard you wake up your neighbor’s cat? That was me last Tuesday. And honestly? Worth it.
I’ve watched a lot of Instagram videos. Like, unhealthy amounts. (My screen time app actually judged me last week — like, thanks Apple, I know I’m a clown.) But the funniest ones? They just hit different. They’re like that one inside joke from high school that you’ll never live down.
So, here’s my totally non-professional, highly biased list of the Top 10 Funniest Instagram Videos That Made Us LOL. If you disagree, that’s fine — send me your faves and I’ll waste another three hours laughing at them.
1. The Dog Who “Forgot” How to Bark
This one lives rent-free in my brain. A golden retriever opens his mouth to bark, but instead it’s like… a broken squeaky toy mixed with a kazoo? I lost it. My wife legit came into the room like, “Are you crying or choking?” Both, honestly.
2. Grandma vs. Alexa
This woman, maybe 80-something, is yelling at Alexa like it’s a stubborn teenager. “ALEXA, PLAY THE FRANK SINATRA.” Alexa keeps responding with EDM playlists. The grandma? Furious. The comments section? Unhinged. Somebody wrote, “This is me trying to order at Taco Bell drive-thru at 2 AM,” and I’ve never related more.
3. That Guy Who Tried Parkour in a Grocery Store
Okay, picture this: dude in sweats, clearly dared by his friends, tries to run up the shelves at Target like he’s in Assassin’s Creed. Spoiler: he’s not. The canned soup avalanche that followed? Oscar-worthy. I laughed so hard I had to pause the video to breathe.
4. The Cat with Zero Patience
This cat is just vibing on the couch while the owner tries to film a TikTok dance. Cat looks directly at the camera — like, directly into my soul — and then smacks the phone out of her hand. Zero hesitation. Cats are chaotic little gremlins and this one deserves an award.
5. The Baby Who “Roasted” His Dad
So this dad is showing off his new haircut and the baby — like, still in diapers — takes one look and bursts out laughing. That contagious baby laugh where you’re crying by the end. I don’t even like kids’ videos usually, but that one? Comedy gold.
6. Pigeon vs. Hot Dog
This happened in Central Park. A guy tries to feed a pigeon, the pigeon snatches the whole hot dog bun, and the guy’s face just screams “existential crisis.” Like, sir, the bird just punked you. Only in New York.
7. The Girl Who Tried a “Fitness Hack”
So, apparently, you can “hack” pushups by balancing your feet on a chair. Except this girl? Chair slipped, she face-planted, but somehow rolled into a perfect yoga child’s pose like nothing happened. The comments were like “that’s the smoothest recovery of 2025.”
8. Microwave Karaoke Night
Two roommates, a busted microwave, and one of those cheap microphones from Amazon. They set the microwave timer to 0:07, and every beep became their “beat.” It turned into a freestyle rap session about ramen noodles. Honestly? Better than half the SoundCloud rappers I’ve heard.
9. When Your GPS Betrays You
Dude’s driving, following his phone directions, and it says “turn right now.” He does — into a car wash. While it’s running. He’s just sitting there, covered in soap, filming himself like, “Welp, this is my life now.”
10. Grandma’s First VR Game
This one had me on the floor. Sweet old lady puts on a VR headset, sees a zombie, and instantly karate-kicks her grandson holding the camera. Everyone in the comments is like, “She unlocked a hidden power.” Honestly, I want her on my team in the apocalypse.
The Best Part? The Comments
Half the time, it’s not even the video — it’s the comments. People on Instagram are too creative. Like, the dog-bark video? Someone wrote, “This is what my soul sounds like on Monday mornings,” and I laughed harder at that than the actual dog.
Why These Hit Different
I think what makes these Instagram videos so funny is that they’re chaotic but relatable. Like, we’ve all embarrassed ourselves in public, argued with tech, or been owned by a pet. Social media just makes it immortal.
Back in 8th grade, I once wore two different sneakers to school — not on purpose, mind you. And of course, that was the one day the teacher called me up to the front of the class. Everyone laughed, I wanted to evaporate, but now? That’s exactly the type of video that would’ve gone viral on Instagram.
Side Tangent (because why not)
You ever notice how Instagram is basically America’s Funniest Home Videos but on steroids? Except instead of your mom mailing in a VHS tape, now it’s just your roommate posting you falling off the couch in 4K. Bob Saget would’ve had a field day with reels.
Wrap-Up (but not really a wrap-up, more like me running out of coffee)
Anyway, those were my Top 10 Funniest Instagram Videos That Made Us LOL. Honestly, I could’ve made it top 50. Maybe I will, if my screen time intervention fails.
If you’ve got a fave video, drop it in the comments or send it my way. I’ll happily sacrifice another night’s sleep. Just don’t blame me when you’re up at 3 AM watching pigeons steal hot dogs.
