A joke about heart donation has won the Funniest Joke award at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
The one-liner came from care worker Masai Graham and went like this:
“So my dad has suggested that I register for a donor card. He’s a man after my own heart.”
Graham was announced as the winner by TV station Dave, after winning 27 per cent of a public vote.
With the chances of his profile being increased after the win, Graham said, “Wherever I go from here I’ll go. But I’m not a professional comedian, I’m just a care worker who writes jokes in his spare time. So yeah, it’s just getting better and better. So I’ll just keep doing it till I stop enjoying it, but I don’t really have any plans.”
Previous winners of the competition include Tim Vine and Stewart Francis.
The festival runs until Aug. 29.
