There’s a certain magic in comedy — the kind you can’t plan, polish, or predict. And somehow, Tim Conway and Harvey Korman carried that magic with them everywhere they went. Their brand of chaos wasn’t just funny… it was eternal.
Tim once said he “had no idea it would spiral into total mayhem,” and when you watch the clip today, you understand exactly what he meant. It all begins innocently enough: a tiny costume mishap, a harmless adjustment. But within moments, it dissolves into glorious, uncontrollable hilarity. Conway tugs and twists like he’s fighting an invisible force, while Korman struggles — and spectacularly fails — to remain composed. His shoulders shake, his eyes water, and that unmistakable half-formed laugh bursts out of him before he can wrestle it down.
That laugh is what fans still cherish. Because when Harvey cracked, it felt like you were sharing a secret joke with two men who genuinely loved making each other break. It wasn’t polished. It wasn’t perfect. It wasn’t meant to be. Every mistake became the punchline. Every misstep turned into something unforgettable.
