Andy Kaufman's Greatest Prank!

[mark10579]

This is Kaufman-esque in itself

[casestudyification]

Uh huh.....what's he doing in the meantime? Where does he get his money to survive in his little hideout, you?

[howedelamitri]

Dumb video. Not funny or interesting in the slightest. Total waste of time. Thank god it wasn't any longer than it was

[vinzhell]

nice song.

[Badassbubbabear97]

you know im related to kaufman by my grandmother and he didnt die in 84

[kkurrukk]

@Badassbubbabear97 You know I'm related to Hitler on my fathers side and he didn't commit suicide in a bunker 1945. He actually emigrated to America and set up a small business selling table fans. He is now retired in Florida and is with his 122 years the oldest living man ever.

[cobalt100]

In 1997, I pulled one of the best pranks ever. I distributed a flier to high school students encouraging teenagers to smoke cigarettes. If they attended a seminar, they would receive a carton of cigarettes. The next day, the local newspaper devoted almost the entire front page in response, saying that the police were looking for the origin of the fliers. Some guy alerted the police and a lot of people were hopping mad. HA! HA! Of course, that was only one prank out of a dozen.

[Kryptonite1371]

@cobalt100 thats a good one, u've got some balls dude.

[steelydrwu]

0:48 very supsicious.

[steelydrwu]

: PPPPPPPPPPP if your gonna lie about the title then don't bother!! booooooooooooo : PPPPPPPPPPPPPP

[Vampire13Luver]

egh!! whats that high pitched ringing sound!!!! :{

[theheatherhoney1]

the only good thing about this video is the black keys

[begood20000]

His best prank was his snotty nose and asking for money on Letterman. That was hilarious

[wwgt]

Andy,,and the black keys are great

Im still here ...JP ( wb)

[joshgearey]

good song

[SuckItLily]

FLAG this video for SPAM. Don't whine and bitch, people, FLAG the video.

[lakid87]

Haha, i think @JivecrackerZak is pulling an "andy kaufman".....Andy would've been proud JivecrackerZak

[skaterman724]

kaufman publicly disclosed if he were to fake his death, which he joked about and was obsessed with, he would return 20 years later....that would be in 2004...

[zackboomer]

fuck this uploader

[demonface666]

whats the name of the song??? i like it

[belisariusorb]

sad little fuck

[MrStupidhunter]

his death was not a prank, his death certificate is registered in america, if he did "re-appear" he would be charged with fraud and sent to prison for a long time. as much as i wish he would come back- he is dead

[lomaxpapsell]

@MrStupidhunter Fake the circumstances of your death, they put you in prison. Fake the circumstances of your birth, they make you president.

[pa20002000]

It will only be the greatest prank when he appears again and sez - "haha I'm alive". Meanwhile he is just an assumed dead comedian, cruelly conning all his fans and family - not earning a penny, producing no new material for decades - with fewer and fewer people even remembering who he is as each year of this "amazing" prank continues. Pretty pointless and pathetic "prank" if you ask me. I mean who really cares - only true fans BUT they don’t believe he is dead anyway. Ironic, dontcha think?

[hulkmam3]

what prank?

[africanchina1]

i guess he was like the precursor of tom green??

[bigjohn9397]

I just want to point out something that everyone seems to be focusing all their attention to... The fact that Andy supposedly died from lung cancer... He still could have very well died from lung cancer... Lung Cancer isn't just reserved for smokers, it can be caused by second hand smoke and other causes. Is it more likely in someone who smokes? Definitely. Do I hope he is faking? You bet, I will be laughing my ass off if he is faking, do I think he faked it? No...

[ITHEREONETHATHASNT]

Stupid hes fuckign dead dumb video

[thedavecraig]

Haha, never seen a 'celebrity' push his fans faces.

[chi31fan]

anyone who does not get this really does not deserve to be watching Andy Kaufman. Thanks JivecrackerZak, I will be sure to send anyone who appreciates Kaufman to this site. I also like the website attached and did not know about Alan Abel previously. Again, thanks, and keep up the good work.

[kathm77]

Now, that was sad. Not worth getting angry; too Pathetic.

[zwan17]

so gay, this is the whackest shit ive seen

[LucidDivinity]

Sorry, but this is lame, and you're pathetic :|

[MBiggs92]

Anyone getting pissed at this are pretty foolish, he's tricked you all, just like Kaufman himself. I also agree with JivecrackerZak, his death whether real or fake, is the greatest "Prank" because it has kept everyone sceptical, which is what Kaufman loved to do to everyone in his lifetime.

[stronghandyman]

I beg to differ with you......his video SUCKS THE SLIMY DIAREAHA OFF THE BALLS OF A FLEA INFESTED ELEPHANT!!!!

Thank you...

[jessjr74]

Your an asshole! Trying to ride the wave of a comedic genius! Do the right thing and take this down! It's not funny! It's not a SUPER COOL PRANK! It's really just dumb!

[lakid87]

@jessjr74 you would've hated Andy Kaufman

[ChelseaODB]

booooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rgmztxy]

@ChelseaODB The joke clearly went over your head.

[ChelseaODB]

Oh and what was that?

[Bornandbledfilms]

waste of time

[Rimsa]

What was the prank?

[RedHatFilmsUK]

TIMEWASTER



[aVeryAngryDuck]

whoever made this video sucks.

[eNRGy27]

Kaufman's greatest prank was making the suggestion that he would fake his own death after he was diagnosed with terminal cancer and knew he didn't have long to live.

[ac120479]

Like this video or be a faggot. If you did not come here to see Andy, gtfo.

[ZachWildSuxxx]

Your video sucks.

[lol327]

Andy Kaufman didn't die - see "Basil Marceaux.com" for proof

[eNRGy27]

@lol327 Oh my god... I think you're on to something!

[simwrangler]

@lol327

Yeah, JFK didn't die neither.

[simwrangler]

@lol327

Yeah, JFK didn't die neither.

I went to that website, and it doesn't exist. You are a lying asshole

[cciemail]

this type video should always be flagged as Spam->misleading text.

[grandolddrummer]

HAHAHA 2:18 Facepalm.

[AnotherMasterMind]

The good die young. Pricks die old. But legends, like Andy, legends never die.

[CapitalgCapitals]

Awesome...Awesome...!!

[Gronstar]

misleading tittle

[sirlonghair]

Andy lives in my heart

[peacefuljeffrey]

There is absolutely no point to this video -- just a total waste of time, and not entertaining in the least. Thanks for nothing, ass-wipe.

[bijibadness]

this is "for fun"? what is fun about it? youre just a faggy nerd who wants subs more than anyone ought to. i feel bad for ya.

[JivecrackerZak]

try youtube.com /BuryBurdenTV

[Prinzmetal49]

@JivecrackerZak I got the message man, don't know why others complain. It's a point of view, a very cool one actually.

[ArmoredFelix]

@JivecrackerZak Sorry no, you misrepresent your video. That=faggy nerd who wants subs more than anyone ought to. I feel bad for ya.

[arizona89]

well JivecrackerZak, you pranked us too...but you could make it more wittier

[pigum]

Ha ha ha ha...

[malcointent]

great song

[uhgvitybvouv]

not everyone can be andy kaufman though

[greenteagod]

Everyone that sees this should vote it as advertising spam as that is all that it is.

[mellowmark1]

I hate that they got rid of the old rating system. i never would even clicked on this video if I saw how poorly rated it was beforehand. Fuck you youtube.

[btwall60]

When I heard Andy "died" I laughed my ass off for about an hour. It was the funniest thing he ever did. a ledgend

[Djarra]

Every once in a while Andy appears as a contestant on game shows.

[ZenithPlacidity]

how do you know he didn't write the script after finding out he had cancer so that it could seem like he faked his death if he dies, thus allowing him to embrace the inevitable by making it into the greatest prank of all time: keeping morons like you guessing for the rest of your life.

[cyberwurst]

sex offender shuffle!

[Damegotor]

Flag this video.

[tritonrocks]

Andy Kaufman really is dead. People claiming he's alive and that his death was a hoax (including it being implied in the movie Man on the Moon) is a bunch of BS. He is buried in NY and there is a death certificate on file in Los Angeles. Thank goodness he's gone. He sucked.

[kentekent]

Is this supposed to be in the spirit of Andy Kaufman?

[thebilldozerrr]

you obviously dont listen to reason... so im just going to leave it at.... youre a rabble rousing cunt... good day to you sir

[abucket888]

can someone tell me what song this is?

[MuddyG]

I love Andy Kaufman, I love The Black Keys, but this video is bullshit.

[PauwelsMax]

who's song is this?

[Waynereich]

Song: "Flash of Silver" by The Black Keys

[Recovrd1]

Black Keys = AWESOME

[whenhopefailsyou]

i think that, that was kaufmans greatest prank indeed. "what if i died but.........made everybody think i was still alive somewhere" (not a direct quote) but its the kind of thing he would think about doing. The death of andy kaufman i think was real, but what imortalized him was, that fact that with kaufman you never new what he would do next, what extremes he would go to on the next show So i think his death was not a prank but with andy its never not a prank you always wait for the next bit

[darkoath13]

Yes, that was the genius of the man.

[IssenKai]

ppl who make video with fake content opr catchy titles just to get subs....cmon men nobody cares how much subs u get, u never gonna reach a decent place not even top 200 in anithing on you tube...u are simply pathetic

[Zerrith]

@JivecrackerZak Did what?????????

[carolousinclair]

tune - very apt, can anyone tell me who the band is playing in the background?

[JivecrackerZak]

Its in the description, The Black Keys - "Flash of Silver" great band! its off of the Single "Till i Get My Way" thanks for watching!

[prkrsmth]

I loved this video man. Thanks

[JivecrackerZak]

Thanks! I dont get much love for this one hahaha

[MrSquareroots]

waste of everyone time. What an ass the uploader is

[TylerSE01]

ok to all you haters out there most of andy kaufmans co stars and best friends say this, this is a quote "I wounldn't put it past andy to fake his own death"

[JoshFF745]

what the fuck man fuck this shit stupid fuck

[JivecrackerZak]

a dynamic use of fuck. thank you none the less.

[uwomoose]

Great video dumbass

[JivecrackerZak]

thanks

[llNoahTheHeroll]

fucking annoying you!

[JivecrackerZak]

no i am not annoyed at all. thanks for watching.

[badamailey]

Great tribute man!!! All these people that bash this video are ignorant and should do their homework on Mr. Kaufman before they post a rude ass comment!

[JivecrackerZak]

thanks so much!

[kirkindysolospock]

Misleading title, not cool.

[JivecrackerZak]

not really, think about it. whether he is dead or not he made sure people would question it. Its a matter of opinion but he managed to keep people guessing for 25 years and counting. i honestly think he is dead. but it is an interesting thing he did.

[koinshaku]

It's not a matter of opinion. He's dead.

[zelenypelikan]

@kirkindysolospock i think it is tooo kaufman



[capricornbrown6]

what the fek is the point of this video what a waste of time

[deezz1s]

I can't figure out which is more stupid.

The video....or the idiot who posted it.......

[Romosho]

the way he pushed everyone in the face on the way out was beautiful.

[justinhunt233]

This is about as stupid as Kaufman's acts. I'm sure he would have loved this.

[anthmar35]

dude that put this video together is a jackass!

[JivecrackerZak]

@anthmar35 Please elaborate

[Stolehome66]

What the fuck is this? I hope the guy that posted this fucking clip shits himself.

[JivecrackerZak]

@Stolehome66 in fact i have, too much chicken wings and hot sauce i guess! that'll teach me! Thanks for watching!

[glk1107]

stupidest thing I have ever seen

[JivecrackerZak]

@glk1107 that cant be a true statement, you look in the mirror everyday, thanks for the feedback none the less!

[truck2112yes]

This depresses me...I miss Andy.

[diztanguy]

ello...this is andy...i m dead not...long live to tony...i m ready for a comeback...this...will be the biggest prank of my death...dank you very much...watch the news foxes!april the 1st 2010!

[BloodCrustSupperTime]

anybody get a high pitch tone right when the music starts and sorta through out?

[NyteRyd2r]

The first 5 seconds were the funniest.

[FazlokAaAaAaA]

rf?

[gizlone]

It would actually not surprise me if he was still alive, just pranking everybody

No, yeah, I would be surprised actually, but you know what I mean

[TheTupacolypse]

he said if he would fake his death he would come back 10 years after. Now its been 26 years.

[deltafour1212]

STUPID FUCK

[ProWings79]

thumbs up!

[mprwac]

Love the cut....The Black Keys ROCK......goood video diversion its about the MUSIC

[olacoke]

God this sucks!

[xanthemanalender]

What do you mean by "His Greatest Prank"?

This is just the end of an episode of Andy's Funhouse.

[capichow]

I'm 28 years old and all i have to say is he is not dead,, his body maybe,,, but the way i see it he is still alive in all of our harts, we live we die but the memorizes will last 4ever and ever in any form from form to form even when youtubes gone,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,­,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Mr.Kaufman Thank you for your funniness and trickyness and singing

hope you are making them smile in heaven cause your still making us on earth

[Y2JROCKFAN]

Even though his face was chubby, he was in fact healthy and vegetarian.

[Jughand]

from what I understand dying of cancer is not generally considered "healthy"

[Y2JROCKFAN]

dying from cancer came as a surprise to Andy and many around him.

He was said to be very healthy and a non smoker.

[aaronboi07]

Sure Anyone Can Die From Cancer ? Healthy Or Not!!

[feloniousbutterfly]

How can you be "healthy" and die of cancer? Those are like two mutually exclusive terms. You cannot be healthy whilst enduring a disease.

[aaronboi07]

So what are you trying to say then? Healthy people cant get cancer? wise up!!!

Andy Kaufman was a Genius :)

[vicarious205]

what are you talking about those two go hand-in-hand obviosly he was about to die so he had a reason to state that he died of cancer when you think he was healthy.when you have an issue dont you keep it in and say your okayso no one knows you are feeling like shit.

[oplivecrime206]

wow that was prolly the most emo thing ive ever heard. dead is dead no matter how u c it

[nolanb21]

Andy's greatest prank was FAKING faking his death. It was his intention to make idiots think he was still alive, even after he was dead.

[whatisbestinlife]

exactly

[ButterOnCorn]

are u saying i am an idiot? :-(

[nolanb21]

Yes. Andy Kaufman was working on an intellectual level far higher than yours. You got fooled.

[ButterOnCorn]

I'm a fool, but I'll love you dear

Until the day I die

Now and then there's a fool such as I

[YouDickwod]

yes

[nextandykaufman]

jesus, really? click. learn. promote.

[daysofthenew60]

Did u see him pushing those people's faces?

[usernameindc]

1 star

[jiminiflix]

what does this shit music have to do with the vid?!!!NOTHING!

[blueinfinite]

i think it's supposed to be "haunting" so that one wonders what the truth of his death really is ... maybe that's it??

[JERRYKNIGHT84]

What was the prank ?

[blueinfinite]

can anyone tell me what song this is playing??

[JivecrackerZak]

"Flash of Silver" by The Black Keys

[blueinfinite]

jive - thank you very much!!

[JivecrackerZak]

no problem!

[alhenrymc]

0.02 best part of this vid

[BJZnRPZ]

HAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH­AHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHHAAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH­AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA­HAAHAHAHA....aaaaaa, hgaagagahahahahahahahahahahaha­ah.

[Razersun]

fuck you you worthless piece of shit mother fucker

just kiddin

[alhenrymc]

ats no nice my friend

[HeyArnoldsspleen]

ROFL

[TodaysCountryStar96]

when they cut to freddie and hes glaring at andy, priceless...

[runway27r]

Andy was goofing around with Elvis in Kokomo, Indiana just the other day. He told me to say hi to everyone.

[MosheNL]

You lie! he died together with me and all our office buddies jumping from the 79th floor of the World Trade Center ten days before the explosion.What a conspiracy that was.

[mahafetissi]

he is fucking dead

[paulmacgek]

Anyone came up with the amazing idea that the prank might be the opposite???

Andy was really terminal and made his final and greatest prank before he died.

He spread the rumour that he would fake his own death and would return 20 yrs later to explain all.

While noone knows if they will even be alive 20 yrs from now! And while every fan awaits the return of Andy, his memory lives on... that's how he's alive, get the picture?

Regarding Andy... don't take anything for granted!

[calisaetia]

the mans a genius

[burtoncharlessmith]

I saw Andy Kaufman at "The Georgia Pig" barbecue restaurant just last week. He was stuffing pork ribs into his face. He weighs over 300 pounds now and has grey hair, what little hair he has left. It was a sad sight.

[jdp97]

he is dead not a good thing but its true

[mkess85]

Andy Kaufman is dead you guys, Im pretty sure Jivecracker is living in a fantacy world.

[quidwitch]

Why would anyone fake their own death? He said that if he were to fake is own death he'd come back 20 years later. 20 years later his friends held a welcome back Andy party to which he did not attend.

Faking your own death is sick. I don't think he went that far.

Then again..

[thedude888890]

Is that The Black Keys music?

[JivecrackerZak]

Yea it is. "Flash of Silver"

[yyy2012yyy]

I liked the end of this video as far as visual effects goes. It drew me in. Just some thought food for you to absorb.

[JivecrackerZak]

thanks, im glad you liked it!

[Gerogiancounty]

Andy is not dead, just saw him at Mario's

[RealDefentertainment]

thanks for this clip because i just discovered a GREAT song to listen to on my way to work

I HATE MY JOB so this will get me by

[Muscovado74]

What is the song in this clip?
