At the ongoing Invictus Games in Vancouver, Prince Harry shared a fun moment with a former US Marine, showing that despite everything, his military humor is still as sharp as ever.
Michael Harrod, a veteran who has been through the battle of testicular cancer, was the one who challenged the Prince to tell his best “bad joke” during a breakfast meeting earlier this week.
When the two met again at a swimming event later, Harry didn’t disappoint.
The Snowmen Joke That Got Everyone Laughing
The joke Harry told was about snowmen, and it instantly cracked up everyone around.
“What’s the difference between snow men and snow women? Snowballs!” he said, to which the crowd erupted with laughter.
Michael, who had already shared a joke his son made, was glad to see Harry follow through on his promise.
What made this moment even more special for Michael was the fact that, in 2022, he was diagnosed with testicular cancer.
His experience with the disease made Harry’s snowball joke particularly amusing.

“He’s got a good sense of humor and is very engaging,” Michael said of Prince Harry, expressing his admiration for the way the Duke made time to connect with people.
