The Saint-Gervais Mont-Blanc Festival of Humor celebrated its thirthiest edition in March 2014. Young talents are encouraged to try their luck on stage and compete for the much-coveted prize, the Saint-Gervais Henri Salvador prize, named for the famous French singer-songwriter.

In this hilarious video, Allessandro Di Sarno decides to strip (nearly) naked to determine whether Parisians are really as jaded as he thinks they are. Luckily the only violence he suffers is at the hands of an elderly woman, who pokes him with her cane!
