The World’s Funniest Joke in Italian

Here’s the translation of the world’s funniest joke, according to the British Association for the Advancement of Science. It was written by Spike Milligan:

Una coppia di cacciatori del New Jersey sono nel bosco quando uno di loro cade a terra. Questo non sembra respirare e i suoi occhi sono assenti. L’amico chiama immediatamente i soccorsi al telefono. Urla: «Il mio amico è morto! Che posso fare?». «Cerchi di calmarsi, l’aiuto io – gli risponde l’operatore – Innanzitutto si assicuri che sia realmente morto». Un attimo di silenzio, poi si sente un colpo di fucile. «Ok. E adesso?»

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 guy whips out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps, “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator says, “Calm down. I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.” There is a silence; then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says, “OK, now what?”
