People can tickle themselves it is just the problem with continuing to tickle to the fact that it is laugh worthy, and therefore, ticklish. But gently touching the bottom of your feet (if you are ticklish there) may tickle you.

People can't tickle themselves because the brain anticipates the sensation, making it less intense and therefore not ticklish. Tickling involves an element of surprise and unpredictability to trigger the body's natural response. This is why self-tickling doesn't produce the same response as being tickled by someone else.
