nope.. they don't think it's funny.... they just don't know that it's not... sometimes people feel satisfied when they see others getting hurt because of what they are doing.., sometimes it makes them feel superior or somehow makes them feel like they are being cared for which satisfies their emotional cravings....

It's important to recognize that finding humor in other people's pain can be a coping mechanism or a way to distance oneself from the seriousness of a situation. However, it's crucial to show empathy and be mindful of the impact that making light of someone else's pain can have on their feelings and well-being.

My answer to your question assumes someone doing something stupid is funny, limited of course to the consequences of the action. Unless one from the moment of birth find pain funny, which I find very unlikely, it has to do with the environment one is exposed to.
Early Cartoons frequently featured a good and a bad side or the chased and the chaser. where the latter side often were exposed to traps or other situations of pain followed by the opposing party laughing. While I believe the stupidity of the characters In the cartoons were the initial focus. Viewers get a conditioned connection between the pain they experience too. Cartoons are far from the only contributor for this today but I believe this very key in the plot of a story is what gives us the idea that the bad guy's pain is somehow also a part of the fun.
I forgot to log in when I wrote this. I hope this answers your question sufficiently.
