World Champion Craig Valentine suggests you prepare humor for the times when things go wrong. Prepare humor lines in advance and use them when the situation you prepared for happens. Be careful, however, to be aware of how the audience might take the humorous comment or how the audience is reacting to the comment. If you think the comment might cause an issue, or if the comment does cause an issue, adapt to the situation and make it clear that you are only joking.
In the moment,
