even 'tough guys' will cry at some point , they won't tell you about it , but they'll do it !
Takes a man to cry IMO. I cried at the birth of both my kids, cried at the Christmas concert last year when my lad had a solo part.

As Mamba says, the toughest of tough will cry, but as adults we cry over pain in the sense of losing someone than we do physical pain. Kids cry through physical pain because of the shock more often than not, but as adults you just stop doing that and gasp, then swear and then go fucking bonkers.
A bloke I used to know once accidentally cut into his little finger with an electric saw. He didn't cry, infact what he did was take himself to hospital, have something for the pain and then casually ask for it to be removed rather than sewed back on. It is to this day one of the most bizarre things i've ever heard of.

Hard to say why we do it - maybe it's just a bodily reaction to physical or emotional pain or happiness.
Sometimes the most unlikely thing can trigger it,such as a particularly poignant episode of 'Lark Rise to Candleford',or running out of Special Brew.

They did a thing on mythbusters that proved that swearing reduces the amount of pain a person feels. Fun fact!

Yep , certain things that happen in life will trigger emotions of tears within anybody ... it could be life , death , events , births , anything.
