Who is the funniest comedian alive?

Post by Ben the Tiger »

In your opinion who is the funniest comedian alive. I would have to say Rowan Atkinson. Just watch this...

For my money, still Jerry Sadowitz. The only comedian to have me genuinely wet my pants laughing.

Rowan Atkinson's good and definitely my all time favourite. My current comedian of choice is Maz Jobrani:

I'd go for Peter Kay, Lee Evans or Rowan Atkinson.

Wouldn't go to my front door to see Eddie Izzard. :smt011
