Boy, there are a bunch to choose from including Buster Keaton, WC Fields, Jonathan Winters, Robin Williams, Harold LLoyd,, Charlie Chaplin, and many others I likely forgot to mention.
But my all-time favorite is Curly (Jerome Howard! He was insanely funny. His improv bits and moves were genius level funny. Of course, I grew up on a steady diet of The Three Stooges in the '50's and '60's.
If you've never watched Buster Keaton, you should. I think he's my 2nd favorite. He wasn't just funny, he was great filmmaker who used the media brilliantly to create his humor.
