Anderson Cooper had a serious case of the giggles on CNN Wednesday night while talking about French actor Gerard Depardieu, who reportedly urinated on and was kicked off of a CityJet flight on Tuesday.

The speech on Anderson Cooper 360's The RedicuList was chocked full of puns like:

Depardieu created his own little jet stream, or as the French would say, 'we, we'

CityJet? I would have guessed he flies In-Continental.

While the airline was busy putting the Pee back in PR, some of the passengers just couldn't hold it anymore and started spilling their versions of the incident to the press.

Can you blame them? They saw an actual Thespian thes-peeing.

The list goes on, but you should probably just watch the video below to hear Cooper's whimsical retelling of the events.

Did you get it? he asks after nearly every pun.

At one point he asks his producers to stop laughing because it's distracting him.

At last, Cooper reaches what would be his last pun:

At least it wasn't Depard-two, he says several times, adding That made me giggle every time I read it. Soon after, he is hardly able to speak at all he is laughing so hard.

Sorry this has never actually happened to me, Cooper says. You always see this sort of thing on YouTube and you don't think it can actually happen to you.

Well, it did!
