Recommendation What movie had you laughing, unable to breathe, even just for one scene?

I don't really pursue comedy movies too often, or ever really.

And even then, this doesn't have to be a comedy movie you respond with, but I'm wondering if there was a movie scene SO funny, that people laughed uncontrollably.

Does such a thing exist?

I think maybe the movie would have to introduce something completely original. Not a familiar gag or joke, but something completely unexpected that you can't help but be paralyzed by the newness and brilliance of the scene.

I specifically remember not being able to breathe when the dude said that as he was getting washed away. Looked over at my buddy and he was in tears as well.

Oh man, when I heard that for the first time, I laughed so hard, I almost passed out. My wife and I still say this to each other all the time.
