Jackie Mason – Age 87

Jackie Mason’s caustic and politically-incorrect sense of humor could easily lead you to have a heart attack (probably because you would giggle like a maniac). Drawing inspiration from his Jewish ancestry, he often made jokes about different cultures too. That didn’t always please everyone, but in the end, his two specials, The World According To Me and Jackie Mason in Broadway have now become classics, proving that comedy can truly be a cross-cultural medium.
