Crack up (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

5

5*

extol

'crack up?' is the definition.
(cracking up is a kind of extolling)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for extol that I've seen before include "Praise - honour" , "Praise enthusiastically" , "Highly commend" , "trumpet" , "Glorify - honour" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the King Feature Syndicate, the Newsday and The Globe and Mail.
