Can't Keep A Straight Face

So I was watching the news, and saw how when the Nobel Committee spokesperson announced that U.S. President Barack Hussein Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize, the people in the room couldn't believe it.  They all at the same time made gasping "Uhhh??" sounds.  In fact, I was waiting for someone to either yell out from the crowd, "You lie.", or maybe see someone throw a shoe at him.  I guess the Norwegians are too polite for that.

What really got me, was the un-named man in back and to the right of the screen.  Watch how he himself can't even keep a straight face when Obama's name is mentioned when first announced (18 - 23 seconds in), and then again, even more so, when announced again in English (36 seconds in).  I couldn't stop from cracking up watching him not being able to keep a straight face.
