People who are funny no matter how many times you see this movie:

1. Ethel Merman (Mrs. Marcus)
2. Dick Shawn (Sylvester Marcus)
3. Mickey Rooney, Buddy Hackett and Jim Backus flying the
airplane
4. Terry Thomas
5. Milton Berle
6. Jonathan Winters destroying the gas station

Sylvestor and that goofy girl still cracks me up. Favorite scene-Jack Benny pulling up to Ethel Merman and asking her if she needs any help. LOL Well!!!

Yup-—that airplane scene is hilarious-—
especially flying through the billboard.

Paul Ford falling out of the airport tower is also funny.

But Sid Ceasar and Edie Adams trying to break out of the hardware store is the funniest.

And who can forget stopping Phil Silvers who later picks up Don Knotts. Must be seen in Wide Screen to see Don’s reactions upon seeing the helicopter behind him and Silvers.

Then the cabbies, Rochester and Peter Falk. I notice the scene where Rochester lands in the lap of Lincoln has been cut from the film in just the last few years.
