laugh....I nearly died

**manor** · 26-02-2008, 12:02 PM

On 24 March 1975 Alex Mitchell, a 50-year-old bricklayer from King's Lynn, England, died laughing while watching the Kung Fu Kapers episode of The Goodies, featuring a Scotsman in a kilt battling a vicious black pudding with his bagpipes. After twenty-five minutes of continuous laughter Mitchell finally slumped on the sofa and expired from heart failure. His widow later sent the Goodies a letter thanking them for making Mitchell's final moments so pleasant

That's it 100 posts

I'd like to die laughing. That's a very happy death

Congratulations on the 100 posts

Ive seen that episode it is very funny

Well done on the 100 posts, even better is that they have all been decent ones. What I mean is some people post junk just to increase to increase their post count.

I'd like to die......... erm I cant say because I'd have to ban myself

I thought they where funny when I was a kid, however Ive recently watched an episode and it just seems weird

I think it has dated very badly.. I'm sure when there were only 3 channels on the TV instead of 500 (!) you found more stuff funny.. now, we just flick over to something else as we have so much choice - but usually all rubbish!

Ahh yes. I remember the episode well. It was all to do with Ekky-thump. A martial-art involving black pudding.

Okay showing my bad sense of humour and my age.
