Now that I think about it, this would have been a perfect moment to have the Three Stooges. Yes, they had a five second cameo much earlier in the movie, but since they were fire fighters it could have been done to where they boys argue over who's turn it was to operate the ladder and be one of the reasons the ladder went out of control.

No, it's because it's 2018 and not 1963 anymore. It's not a conspiracy of stupidity like you need to believe because some reason? It's a natural consequence of something called "time".

None since 1963 in its scope and range. The closest in my experience was "National Lampoon's Animal House" (Jul. 1978). It was narrower in scope, but many more people can relate to college experiences (drinking, sex romps, bad test days, etc.), than to trying to find and dig up $350,000 from a tip from a thief ("Smiler Grogan").
@Niklaus Steffanmullen no fair, Kubric's Dr Strangelove is in another sphere altogether. Kramer's mad world is slap stick at its best. Good one by the way. I believe I have Dr Strangelove in my top 5 greatest films of all time any genre. You could pretend Peter Sellers was going to deliver a show stopper but George C. Scott and Sterling Hayden. Legend has it that George C. Scott had to be tricked into delivering those goofy antics.
There's something slightly humorous to hear Winnie the Pooh screaming, "Hold on...Wait a minute! One at a time! Did you hear me! ONE AT AT TIME!! All right! (slaps one of them). All right! You'll see! YOU'LL SEE!!!" @2:49
This has always been my favorite part of the movie! I only saw the film when I was a little kid (I'm long overdue for another viewing), but I'll never forget this legendary scene!
The special effects for that time (1962 filming) hold up just as well in 2019 as it did way back then. Almost all of the special effects in recent years were computer (software programming) controls. Back in '62, it was humans with great abilities, as when the plane went through the billboard--and almost caused the death of the stunt pilot because he did not know the board material was stronger than expected when the plane had to go through it.
This is my favourite film of all time.Seen it so many times.My late dad said the that the scene where Captain Culpepper slides along the wire and into the pet shop was one hell of a stunt.
Thanks to the ingenious idea (from a book) that the great director Stanley Kramer adopted. He only was known for great dramas, but then did a 180 (reverse) and wanted to do the best comedy ever. He succeeded beyond his wildest dreams, and to our everlasting gratitude that he did it!
For once I got this movie on the Criterion Collection Blu-ray set, it was the most funniest entertaining flick in the 1960s especially to have lots of comedic celebrities ever assembled in filmmaking history. love this ending. Hilarious.
I love this movie! This has to be the biggest collection of movie stars ever in a comedy movie. I remember watching this as a kid and it's still hilarious today. It still holds up today with the children laughing their heads off like I used to when we watch it! My favorite line is that momma's boy Sylvester calling for his momma and doing a header into the table of food! HAHAHA
I saw this as a kid, maybe 7 or 8, and I was utterly shocked on how it ended, because I thought they all had died! I thought it was so dark and brutal, after all the light comedy! But then it shows them in a hospital, but I remember still not liking how it ended, I was so scared...
My first real date (I was 17) was at the Palace Theatre in Columbus, Ohio for the world premier of this film. Jammed shoulder to shoulder in the foyer I felt a pick-pocket steal my wallet with all of my money. Its a good thing the movie was roaring funny. It only cost me about $14 for tickets, $3 for parking and $85 in my wallet, $20 for a new license and $5 for a new wallet. $127 for one kiss and a movie.
As a kid I was SURE that was Bert Lahr AKA the Cowardly Lion - the wail Brown does actually sounds similar to the the wail the Lion had in Oz - apparently Lahr accused Brown of stealing his Vaudeville act in real life so it's no wonder I'd have confused them lol
What sad about this scene that this was Willis O Brien's( the same animator who did King Kong) last special effect before his death in 1962 just about one year before this movie's release.
This is one of the top five comedies ever made in the history of time and with an all star list , of old school stars , that were actually funny in their roles, there will never b comedy again, to match these old school shows, thank God, I grew up when comedy, was true comedy,
this just shows us 2 things we shoudnt climb on fire truck ladders with 10 crazy greedy people and we shoudnt let go of the frickin ladder like idiots and our world and life is a huge giant crazy ratrace
this film is hilarious so many big stars did you know stan laurel was offered a cameo roll but turn it down due to his health problems . Brilliant film
Stanley also did not want to appear again after Oliver Hardy died on Aug. 7, 1957, at 65. That was another reason, besides his health. He died on Feb. 23, 1965, at 74, a day I'll never forget in how sad it was to lose a comedy genius. He wrote many of the scenes, besides appearing in those terrific two-reelers of the 1920s and early 1930s.
Imagine if "Air Bud" had an ending like this, it would've been outrageously madcap to see the adult characters and the villains dangling back and forth and flung in different directions.
Apparently the top of the ladder is motion animation, and it was done by Willis O’Brien which sadly this was his last thing he did before he passed away in 1962
I see from the comments that the fire chief was Sterling Holloway the original voice of Whinnie the Pooh. At the time I first saw this movie on VHS, I had no idea that was him. I honestly thought it was Curly Joe Dorito making a repeat appearance.
A couple days after I heard Gilbert Gottfried died I watched this scene because I thought if this film would have been remake today Gilbert Gottfried would have been perfect as Sterling Holloway's fireman role. Original I thought of Billy West being the fireman but after watching Sterling Holloway in this I thought Gilbert Gottfried would have been perfect in the remake. For over 7 years I have been thinking what if It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World were a remake and it would have Kelsey Grammer and Jerry Seinfeld as the big top roles and because I wanted it to be like a Frasier and Seinfeld crossover with also other 80s and 90s and early 00s TV show stars like Katey Sagal, Will Ferrell, Alec Baldwin, Ray Romano, John Lovitz, Tim Curry, John Cleese, John Goodman, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Eddie Murphy, Tracy Morgan, Danny Glover, Kevin James, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, Jason Alexander, Danny DeVito, Jim Carrey, Michael Keaton, Johnny Depp, Ed O'Neil, Adam Sandler, Drake and Josh, and a number of Seinfeld and Frasier stars. And this was back around late 2015 when I thought about it so originally I thought what if Jerry Lewis and Carl Reiner could have replayed their roles as cameos. Also before 2016 I thought if Alan Young could have made some kind of cameo.
Good catch, Barry! Are you thinking of his famous "hanging off the clock above the street" gag in his 1923 silent classic, "Safety Last!" one of the most enduring images in all of film history. He was then 30, and the gag was manufactured as a "trick shot" although he did many of his own dangerous stunts. Yes, HL was alive, but very old by then; 69 in the Summer of '62 when filming started. He died in Mar. 1971, a month short of his 78th birthday.
Love "Benjy Benjamin" (Buddy Hackett) exclaiming in getting on the ladder when everyone is in mortal danger, "Get on, alphabetical!" Later, when the gang is swaying on the ladder, "I don't want the money! I don't want the money!" Too late now, Benjy, you have to suffer the consequences in first getting high voltage, and then falling into the shallow pool. I've always wondered how come none of those 3 were electrocuted in touching the electric wires? LOL
Joseph Bologna was not in the movie. He did, however, play a Sid Caesar type in "My Favorite Year." And Sid Caesar is on the ladder. (He's the first to go.) Hans Conreid wasn't in the movie either. Peter Falk, Mickey Rooney, Milton Berle, and Dick Shawn were on the ladder, as was Sterling Holloway, who played the fireman.
In 1963, Charlie Chaplin had been living in Switzerland, basically thrown out of the U.S.A. It would've been nice to have him, but he would've been in his mid-70's at the time, so he may not have been able to do much

It’s both intense and hilarious at the same time. No other comedy has ever or will ever pulled this off ever again I love this movie.
