RIP I grew up listening to his albums with my friend in the early '70's, His father had all of them! A lot of Jonathan's comedy rubbed off on me. A genuine , sincere, humble and overall nice man. Not many comedians can compare to him today. You will be missed.
I love to laugh...Jonathan Winters is one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen..or heard....his timing is perfect! And how he paints a picture of imagination is wonderful! I love watching him on Johnny Carson reruns...sure miss him.
OMG! This is the Jonathan Winters I remember. When i was in high school, when I saw in the T.V. Guide that Jonathan Winters was going to make an appearance, even if it was Saturday night, date, night (heh, heh), I would stay home wand watch it. The days before video tape, etc. Bought all his early albums. Non-stop imagination. Great, great natural talent.
No comedian could crack me up like Jonathan Winters, the guy was not of this world - of course not, he was from "Quasiland." Miss him, like I miss Robin Williams - pure improv genius.
well, well there is so much brilliant comedic havoc in here, one would love to quote a line, but there is so much going on for mere mortals to keep up!
how long you been flying? 41 years, "Hold old are you 41 years".. Haha... I drink always to and from the airport.. "Never while I'm flying" ... Jonathan Winters: Classic R.i.P San Diego, Ca
Can't add anything he is the greatest comedian of all times. Although I'm a great fan of Robin. Dean. Jerry. Bob. Abbott. And many others but Jonathan is the cream of top with the sounds he can make
I never laughed so hard until I watched "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad, world" the parts I always loved best were the ones with Jonathan Winters. Then came Robin Williams and it started all over again.
Only one man can compare with J.W.. That would be Red Skelton. True comedy can be defined with these two men alone. Never using the crutch of foul language for a laugh. True artists both of them.
He really is the root of everything we think of as "funny" today, isn't he? I do believe that he's the line of demarcation: Pre-Winters humor (which I also love), and Post-Winters humor (SNL, SCTV, Kids in the Hall, "Whose Line Is It, Anyway?," etc.) really says it all, doesn't it? (I also believe that he improvised every answer he gave, except the last one.) **spactick Good point, and I think your in many ways correct. His impact and influence on stand-ups was profound, to say the least. His ability to make sounds was groundbreaking. @@spactick He contained multitudes.
@tuxguys Good point, and I think your in many ways correct. His impact and influence on stand-ups was profound, to say the least. His ability to make sounds was groundbreaking.
what would you do if a woman on your plane was having a baby? oh i dont know, probably circle around a bit and hope she got over it. Kids take note, this is TRUE comedy.
Yeah. Merth or Mirth from Earth, as opposed to Mork from Ork. Nannu nannu. I liked the part where Mork threw fresh eggs in the air, saying 'you're free, fly away'. JW was a great character in It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World.
This gem of a man is still alive and doing more than kicking --- check out his website! ... I wonder what he thinks of the so called "comedians" of this era??
RIP Jonathan. Thanks for the many, many years of humor you provided us. You were one of a kind.

To make someone laugh as hard as Jonathan Winters makes me laugh every time is like a gift. There is no one better.
I laugh a little less these days, now your gone, Jonathan. These film clips revive that laughter.
Rest in Peace, my favorite comedian, Jonathan Winters.
The greatest improv comedian that ever lived.
It's a Sad Sad Sad Sad World today...
Thank You Johnathan... We will always being enjoying your talent and laughing with you...
"I think I'd probably circle for an hour and hope that she got over it." Jonathan Winters was a freaking genius. RIP.
I love to laugh...Jonathan Winters is one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen..or heard....his timing is perfect! And how he paints a picture of imagination is wonderful! I love watching him on Johnny Carson reruns...sure miss him.
Jonathan Winters was the most funnest man on the planet. He was so real his stand-up improv had been legendary. Rest In Peace, Maude Frickert!!!!!!!
Absolutely brilliant, no one like him today.
Still enjoy his videos
One of the best! Who says you gotta have vulgarity in standup comedy to make people laugh! There weren't too comedians many like Winters.
Kudos to the men who were feeding Winters straight lines. That couldn't have been easy and they pulled it off with aplomb.
Agreed!
There never was and there never will be anyone like Jonathan Winters.♥
Thank you so very much, Jonathan. I needed that.
Laughter, the medicine. Winters the doctor.
Simply A Legend - Great Post.
RIP...you're humor will be missed by millions
I will always remember the memory. Of Jonathan Winters and Robin Williams...❤️😜❤️
This man and Don Rickles is my favorite comedian .
All time
Classy act. A rare treat compared to today's comic venues.
One of my faves! Never gets old....
I love Jonathan Winters!!!
" probably circle for an hour and hope she got over it " 😂😂😂
The best there ever was and ever will be in terms of improv. My favorite comedian of all time.
My all time favorite comic!
The best, always was, always will be.
"I never drink while flying . . . . . to and from the airport - yes . . . . but NEVER while flying!" Comedy gold-dust!
So easy to see how he inspired Robin Williams. Birds of a feather, those two genius comedians. Heaven will never be funnier.
Andrew Graham Robin Williams was far from genius.
Winters was Robin Williams before Robin Williams was Robin Williams.
One of the greatest

Legendary.
A Comedic Genius!!
If I remember correctly, Jonathan did not make anything up before hand...he always ad libbed ..amazing talent.
I'm 62 years old and I'm not going to shave my legs to anyone LOL RIP Mr Winters.
Never heard of this guy before i watched a twilight zone episode called "A game of pool". Damn, he is good.
well, well there is so much brilliant comedic havoc in here, one would love to quote a line, but there is so much going on for mere mortals to keep up!
OMG!!! I forgot about that. He was great in it.
Fantastic human...gifted to give the best medicine known to humanity...Laughter!
I didn't know he was a pilot too.
Amazing.
Thanks for the laughter!
I couldn't agree with you more. My sentiments exactly.
A comical mastermind..
So funny, can't stop laughing... r.i.p mr. winters
incredibly witty genious. His roast of Frank Sinatra is my favourite. Also, he was great in the movie "It's a Mad, Mad World"
how long you been flying? 41 years, "Hold old are you 41 years".. Haha...
I drink always to and from the airport.. "Never while I'm flying" ...

Such a funny guy!
...the right starboard engine...that's when a pilot knows its a setup.
Pure genius. Find someone today that could do this.
not like Jonathan.
I always thought Mr Winters had a passing resemblance to Babe Ruth
and General Norman Schwartzkof
I agree...but a sense of humor more like Yogi Berra!
Good thing the tree guys had their backs to us because I am sure they were cracking up
Pure genius.
LMAO...the whole time watching this! I love you Jonathan and just know that you are making the Angels laugh big time right now!!!
Can't add anything he is the greatest comedian of all times. Although I'm a great fan of Robin. Dean. Jerry. Bob. Abbott. And many others but Jonathan is the cream of top with the sounds he can make
he was great
RIP Great talent. Thank you for all the laughter!
Robin William's idol! I love Jonathan Winters! My dad has a bunch of his comedy albums. And I totally agree with GOOTENAGEN.
No filth, just brilliant humor
Should be on Mount Rushmore..JW is the Buddha of comedy.One of the best there is..timeless and a true original.
'And you never landed!' ...what became of that aircraft.?' ..'gave it to my boy ' Brilliant ,off the charts ❤ J W

Beautiful..incredible
I never laughed so hard until I watched "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad, world" the parts I always loved best were the ones with Jonathan Winters. Then came Robin Williams and it started all over again.
RIP . The funniest man on earth
irreplaceable , the most funniest person i have ever seen . good luck Lara Thomas in trying to act him in your school play
Clark Van
RIP Jonathan Winters. We have lost a great comedian.
Man i loved this one
Only one man can compare with J.W.. That would be Red Skelton. True comedy can be defined with these two men alone. Never using the crutch of foul language for a laugh. True artists both of them.
Well....I was following this Canada goose.....
Brilliant!
Yes he was so cute and a brilliant comicrip😂❤❤
To all of you (including the heirs and such) Give it up. Serious funny!!
He really is the root of everything we think of as "funny" today, isn't he?
I do believe that he's the line of demarcation:
Pre-Winters humor (which I also love), and Post-Winters humor (SNL, SCTV, Kids in the Hall, "Whose Line Is It, Anyway?," etc.) really says it all, doesn't it?

Good point, and I think your in many ways correct. His impact and influence on stand-ups was profound, to say the least. His ability to make sounds was groundbreaking.
@@spactick
He contained multitudes.
Gee---could FLIGHT be based on this---this man was a genius that we we will not see the like of soon or ever
he is making them laugh in heaven with Robin
he isn't with robin, robin committed suicide, suicide's don't get to go to heaven.
@tuxguys Good point, and I think your in many ways correct. His impact and influence on stand-ups was profound, to say the least. His ability to make sounds was groundbreaking.
Im acting as him in my school play
what would you do if a woman on your plane was having a baby?
oh i dont know, probably circle around a bit and hope she got over it.
Kids take note, this is TRUE comedy.
National Treasure gone!! Even after death, the funniest man ever.
brilliant!
He's not gonna shave he's legs for anybody,jajajaja!!!!
Yes indeed, and an ART which Groucho Marx always practiced!
Yeah. Merth or Mirth from Earth, as opposed to Mork from Ork. Nannu nannu. I liked the part where Mork threw fresh eggs in the air, saying 'you're free, fly away'. JW was a great character in It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World.
JW used to be on Mork and Mindy (Robin Williams). Mork's child I think. Brilliant.
This is true comedy
Funniest person to ever live.
Does anyone know the Season / Episode of Mork and Mindy which features Jonathan Winters?
What a riot!!!!lol!!!
This gem of a man is still alive and doing more than kicking --- check out his website! ... I wonder what he thinks of the so called "comedians" of this era??
Gootenagen...it is your imagination because modern humor is ALL those things!...Winters rules!
Bwhaha love him, always have
About half way through, "Why did you fly 600 miles past the destination?" Back then it was funny, now it just happens.
One of the best...and let's don't forget about Ernie Kovacs...to me Groucho started it all.
the one and only
It gets no funnier than this..... Sounds like Robert Stacks voice in the introduction too.
Robert Worcester dirty harry
RIP!
RIP Jonathan
Jonathan Winters RIP
...he's still alive.
