Can only imagine how long it took to film some of his scenes with everyone breaking up laughing. The funniest scene in my opinion had to be the one where he played the (nearly blind) dentist who came to the castle to pull the tooth of Dreyfus....when he sniffed the gas and both of them were laughing - you could tell they were REALLY laughing....and his nose disguise was melting...laughing just thinking about it!

@@cw2256 Wow it must have been over 40 years ago since I saw that, but now that you mention it I remember it vividly. I remember our entire school was parroting his ridiculous french english pronounciations at the time. His lines were all famous laughing material, even everywhere in Europe, it was globally understood, strange when you think of the language barriers it crossed. Even the french laughed their asses off at his lines.

Totally agree 👍

i only hope they werent sucking up to appease him

Totally agree, along with Leonard Rossiter

And the worst thing about it was he had heart problems back in the day and he had a heart attack and back then man not everybody survived their heart attacks ot to my back in the 60s didn't nobody back there know anything about CPR they didn't teach that s*** until about around the '70s and the school system and the fire departments in the United States at least will train in that technique what happened was in Los Angeles that had a lot of unemployed Vietnam medics running around and do the fire commission said damn I know a way we can put these out of work medics to work we can help each medic train as a fireman attached to every fire station in Los Angeles so when there's an injury we ain't got to wait on no ambulance and that's how the word paramedic got studied it all got started in Los Angeles and then later they started training cops in paramedic techniques I don't know why cuz cops are not interested in saving lives taking lives not saving and that's when the TV show emergency came on TV and started showing the wonderful feel of paramedic medicine and it caught on like Wi-Fi in the United States and Canada Mexico and then Europe started copying from us and we sent in paramedics to Europe and Britain and New Zealand the teach them what paramedics really were all about and it's been that way ever since even in f****** Saudi Arabia

@@guthabanglasdash8641 They can cure that now.

I am French and I LOVE his French accent ! Cracks me up everytime

Alan Cobbin oh yes we really laughed hard when they ‘nearly blew his yellow little skin off’

knut riis brilliant 😂😂😂😂👍

Yes, I'm 42 now and my dad introduced me to the pink Panthers and I would laugh so much and so hard, it would make my dad laugh from another room!!! I need to watch them again!

I was surprised when I recognized Kato in "the Last of the Summer Wine".

@@MrKnutriis t11

Did you know.. , he said at times he felt he was out of sinch. like another dimension.. like other genius 's .. claimed' ditto". 🙏

Although, sadly, his run of awful films was very, very long.

Become a statue? How, cast him in cement?

@@john_mckinney LOL, look..thta's funny. My English is bad GET is what I mean ;)

And don’t forget Louis de Funes...

@@otto16121970 There you have a point Otto, wen I was young a watched the movies with the crazy funny French man. But for me was Peter softer and not that "edgy" like Louis de Funés (his parents were Spanish)

oh man, that parallel bars scene at 7:53

My Dad was a quiet, serious type of guy, but when watching the PP movies with Peter Sellers, he howled with laughter.

exactly

Steve Martin proved he's a dork.

@@marcryvon Steve Martin is less than funny. The Pink panther remake should never have been allowed to escape.

Yes and the Alan Arkin version was a poor shadow. Sellers set the benchmark in just about everything he did, including - in this context - "corpsing".

I would rather watch paint dry because that's more entertaining than watching Steve Martin, how on earth they can class him as a comedian is beyond logic!!

Too True.. Martin would not even let them dye his hair Black to at least try to be true to the great Peter Sellers role, it stayed white thereby proving Martin had zero respect for the character or the actor Peter Sellers! Plus Martin was and is a twat who never been funny. They been better getting Rolland Atkinson to do the role in a remake.. not only his he British he also a Genius of comedy like Sellers was. It takes a special type of comedy actor to follow in the footsteps of Sellers.. and a twat of a American can't do that.

Meir Wise Sellers*

@@photom2 In the case of Peter Seller, who the f...k cared !? Certainly not Blake Edwards !

Meir Wise ~~~I’m old enough that I saw these when they came out first run! He in most cases would improvise or just say what came to mind. That’s his comic genius (can’t be taught)

@@photom2 Aye, but that robs US of all the out-takes. : ¬ (

Right....most of the time the crew must have been rolling over the floor holding their stomach...I know I would...

Aaaah, Chief Inspector Clouseau. Please stand corrrecteude !

I once met a Frenchman at the French embassy in London who sounded exactly like Clouseau. I thought he was having me on, but no. Really hard to keep a straight face.

In the Pink Panther movies; even the other French characters couldn't understand Clouseau sometimes. That made it even funnier :)

I am French and love inspector Clouseau !

In most of his films it's obvious the other members of the cast are doing their best not to laugh.

sirrrr that is a doooor. Yes, yes it is. lol I used to have a boss ( civil engineering office ) that would state the obvious to show he was on top of things.. lol Then I was one. I cried laughing at myself when I got back to the car , first time i caught myself being intellectually pompouse. Johnny, i think that is what makes these skits so funny . We can all put ourselves to some degree in those situations.

@@kixigvak like, live stage scenes during the carol Burnett show,, Tim Conway would constantly crack them up... 😁👍

the Louvre

@@anneheimburger3186 No, he was saying 'I'm an officer of the law', in a ridiculous French accent.

@@pauljackson2409 it was like when he ask for someone to answer ' the fewn'...

Strangely, a lot of very successful comedians are very troubled people.

True

Yeah, that’s my favorite movie of him. It’s hilarious!

classic 👍

The Party was brilliant🤣

Loved everything Peter Sellers ever did but The Party was his best.

Legend,, glad to have lived in that era,, to see the series unfold.. as well, the Spaghetti westerns, Trinity series

or does your dog fart while sleeping hahah

"No"...

Zat is not my dog... one of my favorites also.

"Zat is not my dog...."

Too many "favorites" to count. If you put my feet to the fire, I'd have to pick the scene with Clouseau trying to sneak across the castle moat, where something different goes wrong on each attempt.

" He has pulled the wrong tooth!" "Theres only one man who would pull the wrong tooth!"

Ha, me too almost in Austin Powers with the fruit bowl scene in the kitchen and silhouette scene in the tent. Genius direction! I was in a movie theatre in Redwood City, California. It had very low seats and I lost it and was banging the floor with my hand and wanted to roll out of my seat and do a real ROFL! But Sellers is the funniest. He was irreplaceable. Perfect mix of facial expressions, accent and innocence of character. Do see his non comedic roles too, such as Being There.

They are very insecure and need attention,i think they call it ADHT now

lol thats what you get when you try to hoover up the parrot lol

that is a quail not a parrot

@@jaysilverheals4445 yeah. Ok…👌

@@jaysilverheals4445 even funnier

it was nice to see him being himself and cracking up, but what was actually making them laugh, well you had to be there, i suppose.

Seems that not much is funny anymore- sure miss the good old days.

+Steven Baer Steve Martin never wanted to do the Pink Panther as he knew it was impossible to do it justice. My dad is the cousin of Swedish actor Britt Ekland who was married to Peter Sellers, so I met Sellers in Sweden as a 7-year-old a year before Peter Sellers passed away. I never laughed so much as when he fooled around with us kids! Some say Peter was a difficult and angry person in private, I doubt it? He loved playing different characters for us kids in the family and for his daughter.

@@whatshisname3304 With a name like yours you have got to be joking.

More please this is the best medicine in the world 😂Poor Peter Sellers lived such a strangely tragic life and yet Bless him 😂😂

Zhhhchuu

Me too

Birdy num-num.

Howdy partener...

Hilarious 😂

Yes me too I just cried laughing all the way through.

It must have taken them months all they done wos laugh its great 👍
