That old one - When I die I'd like to go peacefully in my sleep...not screaming in terror like my dad's passengers. I heard it attributed to Tommy Cooper but I saw the other day it was listed as one from Bob Monkhouse.

I suspect George Carlin used it before JC turned to comedy but even he may not have been first.
