LONDON - British Association for the Advancement of Science, in its largest ever scientific study into humour, asked Internet users around the world to submit their favourite jokes and rate the funniness of other people's offerings.
After a year of more than 40,000 jokes from 70 countries and two critiques later, this is it:
Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other pulls out his phone and calls emergency services.
He gasps to the operator: "My friend is dead! What can I do?"
The operator in a calm, soothing voices replies: "Take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead."
There is a silence, and then a shot is heard.
Back on the phone, the hunter says, "Ok, now what?"
