Arnie hired comedian to become popular
When he first arrived in America, movie star and now California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger reportedly took joke lessons from US funnyman Milton Berle.
According to contactmusic.com, the Austrian-born actor-turned-politician was still struggling to learn English when he asked the It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World star to help him perfect his humour, so he could be a hit at Hollywood parties.

"He had a whole file in his head. Yes, I was really serious about learning jokes. I knew I had to make people laugh. We'd sit down and he'd say, "Here's how you deliver this line..." I was over at his house all the time because I was interested in American humour,' he added.
