The hilarious violent battles between Inspector Clouseau and his servant Cato in The Pink Panther movies.

Those are hard to beat, movielover.  Another hilarious scene and one which never fails to make me burst into laughter is from the same film The Pink Panther Strikes Again (1976), which is of course the part where Closeau has once again masterfully gone undercover as an dentist and is now on his way to "relieve" the pain of his poor and very unstable former boss, Charles Dreyfus. It is comedy gold and also one that I never grow tired of watching over and over again. Love the part where he pulls out the wrong teeth, followed by having his nose starting to melt, all while both of em' are high as hell due to the laughing gas. By the way, great idea for a thread/topic as well Ass_E9. I will try to come back with some more, sadly Youtube seems to have either deleted/removed or made a lot of my favorite clips/scenes unvailable for my country, which sucks.

I will probably spend a lot of time in this thread for a while. Love discussing and watching great comedy clips/scenes, and hope that others will join in with their own favorites. I have always had a big soft spot for comedic scenes involving actors (funny ones) going undercover in very cheesy and over-the-top ways, and for me John Candy were one of those who just never could do any wrong, no matter how poor the films might be, he always made me smile and laugh. While Who's Harry Crumb (1989) might not exactly be a great film, it is however one I have always enjoyed as an huge John Candy fan and it contains svereral "Peter Sellers" Pink Panther moments, where he plays a similar kind of goofy/clumsy but very likeable detective who ends up stumbling into all kind of weird and silly situations throughout the movie, and it also helps that it have both the stunning Shawnee Smith and Annie Potts in one of her most "vampy" parts or at least of the ones I have seen of her. Here Candy does a funny job as one of his many weird but hilarious characters in Deszu Djizlas and Vijay. Almost "lost" it when his chesthair fall down on the woman's private parts then he picks it up and are now suddenly the proud owner of a big hairy beard, and says: "Maybe your eyes are playing tricks on me" However, when it comes to combining great comedy along with a little more seriousness, I think Candy's finest hour came in the part as the lovable curtain salesman Del Griffith in John Hughes classic Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987). Here he got to play a character which showcased a more fragile/human side not just being a big funny sidekick but one who actually had a little more depth to him and I love watching him and Steve Martin together in this film. It is hard to pick just one scene out of so many, but it is one where both the lighthearted comedy goes so well together with the more serious approach, but never having any of them completely "dominating" too much, and the chemistry between the two actors is fantastic. "What did I do to get hooked up with this guy?"

Can't pick out a scene, but 'It's a MMMM World' may be my favorite physical comedy.
Of course, that's excluding the WWE
