50 Funniest Jokes of All Time!

Researchers in the UK examined more than 1000 jokes and placed them before 36,000 voters to determine the "official" 50 funniest jokes of all time.

A spokesman for www.OnePoll.com, the organisation behind the research, told the the media not all the jokes were to everyone's taste.

"The majority of these jokes are clean and genuinely funny - but a lot are pretty subjective and what one person finds hilarious, someone else may not," the spokesman said.

"Many of the jokes in the list are fairly timeless and will still be making people chuckle in thirty years or more."

"Being able to tell a joke is a fine art and telling a classic joke correctly in a pub full of people can be tricky."
