I do not disagree that skill, skits and persence are part of what makes people find clowns funny regardless what they wear. I just wanted to include that was a scientific test i believe done.

I will have to find the article. It does say that there are other factors that affect people with laughter when it comes to clowns.

However it pointed out that it noticed that colors, regardless whether in the form or hobos, auguste, white, character where somewhat an inluence.

I am not saying that the person has no part on it. I do not want to insult those on here that spend countless hours or training research in heart into the craft.

I just wanted to point a portion of what does effect the human mind when it comes to clowns and laughter. This study also indicated that skill and skills were important, it just focused soley on how colors and the word was a part of the mental influence to the brain when they are watcher a performer that is known as a clown.

I will find the study reference. Again i did not intend to rile anyone up, just some the reasearch i have been doing.
