Sure I could have picked him as well but since this is personal opinion I picked the ones who have made me laugh the most. Lots of other good ones on others lists as well but we were asked for 3.

“Actor” imposes a limit of sorts. I’m ashamed to say Sacha Baron Cohen has made me laugh more than all combined. He’s also pissed me off and caused me to roll my eyes in disgust.

The guys even funnier as black adder

The final scene of 'Black Adder Goes Forth', one of the greatest moments of television ever.

and I deliberated over Zero Mostel, who actually is hilarious but I could only name 3. He ranks really for me very high.

Sacha was great in Les Miserables and Hugo, he really is a very talented actor, when he's not playing his various characters.

For some strange reason, Jerry Lewis is some sort of comedic genius, ........in France.
