I Love To Laugh (Sing Along Songs)

[@Ninji5]

"Last time it took us three days to get him down -starts laughing-" God Dick Van Dyke XD gotta love him!

[@hydracdxv]

FELLOW HUMAN yep

[@christinamitchell6796]

When I was little I always laughed so hard at this scene. I think because I understood that when it's something you should probably not do you want to more. Like in school during tests we had to quiet but sometimes people crack you up to the point of tears and I can't control it.

[@Pfisiar22]

Ed Wynn was a legendary vaudevillian comedian and tv host before his son convinced him to give serious acting a go. Turns out, he was a natural. He earned an academy award nomination for playing against type in the Diary of Anne Frank. I learned through dvd commentary that Julie Andrews found it very difficult to keep a straight face during this scene because she found Ed Wynn incredibly charming and funny. Dick Van Dyke, as a big fan of vaudeville, knew of Ed Wynn's reputation and was also very happy to be working with one of his professional heroes.

[@marvinthemaniac7698]

Keenan Wynn always starred in serious roles.

[@robertmcpherson1617]

​@@marvinthemaniac7698Not ALWAYS...his turn as Planchet in The Three Musketeers was fairly light. There were a few others as well.

[@afriendofbean]

It's a good thing that Uncle Albert never died laughing since at the end of the movie it was mentioned that Mr. Dawes Sr. died laughing.

[@afriendofbean]

@Ryan Swanson My guess is that Mr. Dawes Sr. is more of a senior citizen while Uncle Albert is more young where maybe laughing caused Mr. Dawes Sr. to get a heart attack since he was very old looking like he had a medical condition while on a cane especially in the scene when he tried stealing Michael's tuppence, he almost passed out two times while Uncle Albert is probably more young and healthy and laughing didn't cause any problems for him especially since he was laughing for three days floating in the air as Bert mentioned from 0:56-0:58.

[@lordofthegames6601]

I have a random question. if you die laughing, does that mean you died happy?

[@afriendofbean]

@@lordofthegames6601 That could be an option.

[@gormandagher9415]

And that’s the way I’d love to go.

[@afriendofbean]

@@gormandagher9415 Okay.

[@binghamguevara6814]

Once you know that Uncle Albert is the voice of the Mad Hatter from the Alice in Wonderland cartoon you cannot help but see this as a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, with Bert as the March Hare, and either Mary or Jane (and to a lesser degree Michael) as Alice.

[@c0mf0rta61ynum6]

Michael would probably be the Dormouse.

[@sdgakatbk]

That's a good catch.

[@kathrynhill5796]

I bet Ed Wynn had a blast during the production of that scene. Especially with all that laughing. 😂

[@btsarmyforever4527]

The part where Bert blasted out “HAAA!” at 2:13 kills me every time! 😂🤣

Omg!! Nostalgic overload, I remember these video tapes as a child

[@chimebirdplayer3327]

It's amazing how they were able to hide the cables lifting them up to the ceiling.

[@jasobres]

Well, the wire scenes (which were mostly long shots) were done with the sodium vapor process (nowadays known as green screen) pioneered by Ub Iwerks for Walt's Alice Comedies, but for the closeups, more practical effects were done like having the actors going up and down on a teeter-totter.

[@williamburke8242]

It makes me want to float!

I’m exactly the same

[@maleficentdiva]

well like I always say, "laughter is like a good bra, it always lifts you up"! HA HA! :)

[@erindowning9375]

I think the smartest thing for Mary Poppins to do would've been to either just let the continuous & contagious laughing run its natural course until something Sad catches their eyes, ears, memories, or thoughts or she should've just simply said something sad like it's time to go home & puts them back on solid ground.

[@kotlianz]

Used to watch this alot as a kid....saw it today after 20 years and feeling very nostalgic......good times

You can see her smiling when she pulls Jane and Michael down

I didn't notice that. I'm going to have to watch it again.

[@ravensnflies8167]

she was thinking about whit supremacy...

[@Garrettk41]

And Jane's looking at her like "party pooper".

Wow thanks for the nostalgia! I miss these VHS tapes.

[@eliassmeke3991]

Yep 👍 Ed Wynn who was the voice of Mad Hatter in the Disney animated movie 🍿 Alice in Wonderland (1951) also played Uncle Albert in Mary Poppins (1964).

[@Janillo2782]

HYSTERICAL, AND HEARTWARMING SCENE!

[@rebeccabrown1563]

Even though Julie Andrews isn't singing most the song she is absolutely divine and when she does sing even if it's about how people laugh it sounds like angels.

[@gabrielleclennon6589]

Whatever y'all do, you better keep a straight face 😐, last time it took us 3 days to take him down. Bert starts laughing 🤣 MP: BERT!! You ain’t helping at all.

uncle Albert is the same comedian that voiced The mad hatter in Alice in wonderland Ed Wynn Wikipedia

[@theblondebabexoxo5360]

Dominique Pilon lol

[@hothmandon]

And he voiced King Candy in Wreck it Ralph

[@c0mf0rta61ynum6]

No, that was Alan Tudyk. Ed Wynn's been dead since 1966. Tudyk did base his performance as King Candy off of Wynn, though.

[@bloodyrose1985]

He also played the Fairy Godfather in Cinderfella with Jerry Lewis

[@scottyarbour2570]

Now that I’m older, seeing Dick Van Dyke sing with Ed Wynn about laughter is something special.

This is literally me (the guy on the ceiling Albert) and Mary Poppins represents my parents.

Oh my. A whole number devoted to nitrous oxide, quite possibly the most amazing substance in the universe, from Disney. This could not be made today, they'd not even think of it. And it's a quite accurate depiction of the effect, it really is.

I wish you could actually go up to the ceiling and defy gravity laughing like that in real life.

That and Mary is also concerned for their safety, because, as we see later in the film, too much laughter can be fatal.

I know this is a movie but can anyone really die from laughter???

[@jamessparkman6604]

Yeah as the weasels from who framed Roger rabbit found out

[@toniroberts8117]

I remember as a small child this scene would confuse me on why Mary Poppins, as cool as she is, thinks it’s absolutely terrible if someone is super happy. Who cares if he’s flying. I’d laugh forever if I thought I could fly. He’s an old man. What’s the worst thing that can happen? He dies laughing? Gimmi a break. With so many people dying of suicide and depression, let the guy be happy. Just always confused me as a kid.

[@Dharmon1]

This is really uplifting.

[@gabrielleclennon6589]

I remember when I watched this movie I thought to myself that Mary Poppins was just there like Oh Dear Lord in Heaven, please help me with these children, Bert and Uncle Albert. Because I have basically have 0 tolerance for this nonsense. Everyone else: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I always laugh during this scene too!!😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣😂😂

Lol The Joker would probably do a dark twist on this though. Where people get trapped in the room because they can't stop laughing. And you can guess how it ends!

[@KakashiRox900]

Is it sad that I started singing and dancing this with my friend at a party? In front of about twenty people.

[@KuijkenGames]

no not at all

[@afriendofbean]

I agree. I remember end of the of the film, Mr. Dawes Sr. died at the end of the film for laughing and floating in the air after hearing the joke from George Bank's which was "a wooden leg named Smith." Also, not only was too much laughter fatal (as you mentioned) but, maybe another reason why Mr. Dawes Sr. died of laughing was because, he was getting very old and died from old age.

[@crazyrabbit1971]

If I laugh I might fly off or hit my head on the ceiling

[@josephmarrison4606]

I am a lot like Bert irl, I understand when to be serious, but I also love to laugh and have a good time.

[@yankeeladee02]

zenbkk 😍 Impossible to not laugh😂 How on earth did Julie Andrews not break character?!

[@josue31588]

I love this song. But it always makes me cry when I hear it. It's because this song came on during a very sad time in my life and I tried cheering up by singing this song and it's lyrics but I was actually crying during the laughing parts. In that sense, the chorus lyrics sound more like a person in denial and forcing themselves to be happy during a sad time. Still love this song though.

[@juliabaldwin550]

My boyfriend and I just last week were talking about this song and about Uncle Albert himself. What’s his story? Is it like Encanto, where he’s the estranged black sheep of the Poppins family? Is he using laughter to cover up trauma of some kind? It’s never made clear.

[@JustPippaNY]

"Mr. Wynn, I have Walt Disney on the phone-" "Tell Walt I'm on my way."

I have a very great memory of me swinging on my blue little tykes swing with the help of my mom pushing me, while I was singing this song and every time I would get to the "TO LAUGH" part, she would tickle me.

[@ellenarochon6123]

I remember last time we were in Ms. Massey's class we saw her and heard her singing and laughing.

[@BigSwitz98]

@Rosmi3 No. Uncle Albert was played by Ed Wynn. The Lion was played by Bert Lahr.

[@afriendofbean]

Maybe that flying only happens when Mary Poppins is in town when anyone laughs but once Mary Poppins leaves town, I guess nobody can float in the air when they laugh.

[@FantasyIndividual]

I used to love this song as a kid b/c I knew that Ed Wynn was The Mad Hatter :D And I used to loooove Bert ^^

She is probably a strict nanny. Also, she is in town for business and not for laughing where maybe she doesn't want to get in trouble by George Banks for having fun and entertainment.

[@ellenarochon6123]

This reminds of Sarah the last two riding even today when I was laughing but by the end I was crying.

[@afriendofbean]

I wonder if Uncle Albert was outside laughing, he would float up very high in the sky and would constantly laugh going up and up and up being unknown if he would reach outer space. Perhaps the only reason he stopped floating up soon because the ceiling stopped him from constantly floating up. However, I'm guessing this laughing and floating up is because Mary Poppins is around which causes magic in the neighborhood and if Mary Poppins is not around, people could still laugh without floating up.

[@afriendofbean]

I know this is a strange question for me to say but, what is the point of flying in the air when Uncle Albert laughs? Does it mean that he's laughing and having a good time where he's like on Cloud 9?

[@ericeasterday5849]

You can definitely tell that Mary Poppins isn’t that fun of a person, just by her facial expression when they tell their laughing stories and are laughing along with Uncle Albert! That definitely explains her character in this movie. Strict, cold hearted, and family disciplined.

[@ellenarochon6123]
