The Funniest Jokes in The World (in The Wizard's humble opinion!)

Tim Horton's joke

The funniest joke in the world is, of course, subjective—but here’s one that became famous when British researcher Richard Wiseman conducted a study called the "LaughLab" in the early 2000s to scientifically find the world's funniest joke. According to the study, this one took the crown:


Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses.
He’s not breathing and his eyes are glazed.
His friend takes out his phone and calls emergency services.
He gasps: "My friend is dead! What should I do?"
The operator replies: "Calm down, I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead."
There’s a silence, then a loud bang.
Back on the phone, the guy says: "OK, now what?"


It's dark humour, quick, and the timing makes it funny to many people worldwide.

Here are three more hilarious jokes from different styles of humour:


1. Classic One-Liner

I told my wife she was drawing her eyebrows too high.
She looked surprised.


2. Absurd Humour

Why don’t skeletons fight each other?
They don’t have the guts.


3. Dad Joke Style

I bought some shoes from a drug dealer.

I don’t know what he laced them with, but I was tripping all day.

Here are five more jokes from a mix of styles:


1. Wordplay (Pun)

I’m reading a book on anti-gravity.
It’s impossible to put down.


2. Dry Humour

Parallel lines have so much in common.
It’s a shame they’ll never meet.


3. Classic Dad Joke

What do you call fake spaghetti?
An impasta.


4. Clever Twist

I threw a boomerang a few years ago.
Now I live in constant fear.


5. Silly Visual

What’s orange and sounds like a parrot?

A carrot.

Here are five jokes with a Canadian twist—a little self-deprecating, a little polite, and a whole lot of maple syrup.


1. Classic Canadian Politeness

Why did the Canadian cross the road?
To say sorry to the other side for taking so long.


2. Weather Woes

You know you’re in Canada when you go from wearing shorts to a parka in the same afternoon… and just call it "spring."


3. Tim Hortons Love

I’m not saying Canadians are addicted to Tim Hortons, but if you cut us, we bleed double-double.


4. Hockey Obsession

Canadians don’t get into fights.
Unless it’s about who has the better hockey team… then it’s a polite brawl with lots of "sorrys" in between punches.


5. True North Strong and Free

How do you get 50 Canadians out of a swimming pool?
You say, "Please get out of the pool."

And they do.
