George Burns turned a simple health question into comedy gold. When asked on live TV how many cigars he smoked and what his doctor thought, he shot back with perfect timing: “My doctor is dead.” Delivered in the late ’80s — cigar in hand, that trademark twinkle in his eye — the line instantly became part of comedy legend. Burns carried that same wit, charm, and effortless cool all the way to 100, a living masterclass in timing, style, and the art of showbiz myth-making! #history #comedy #reels #
