In January, we set out to find the funniest joke in the world by asking our readers to send in their American favorites. Our judges, led by comedy legend Sid Caesar, trimmed the thousands of gags you sent in to ten. Then readers voted for the best. Meanwhile, Reader's Digest editions from around the globe did the same. Some of their jokes will make you guffaw, some will leave you confounded (that's the culture divide for you), and others will look familiar (that's the Internet for you). Read the 30 funniest jokes in the world and check back soon for the winner.
