we should still have hope he's alive, i've read people's "reports" saying they've met a guy who looked like him, and said "did you know you look like Kaufman" and one person said he went crazy when they said that to him, and later apologized saying he knew Kaufman before he died, and they were starting a company together, but he lost everything to Kaufman and thats why he was homeless.
I dont know if these reports are true, but its sus to me!
even tough it is entertainment, a pile driver is a very very dangerous move, and I think it should be banned, even a great professional such as steve austin reported serious injuries after the move went badly.
The last 30 seconds of this show what happened AFTER Andy Kaufman finally defeated Lawler. The "I'm From Hollywood" documentary made it look like the whole thing ended there. It didn't.
In Lawler's bio, he talks about what happened after this; Andy would come back week after week, getting his butt kicked every time. It started to get old after a while. Nevertheless, I'd like to see some of that footage.
No, it went on after that. Watch this video. Lawler throwing fire in Kaufman's eyes happened AFTER Andy doublecrossed Lawler and got the crown. I read an excerpt from Lawler's bio; the grudge went on for a little while after that. The ending of "I'm From Hollywood" was another prank on the audience.
But yes, it was all a bit. And no, no one does really care anymore. Those last two points I won't argue with.
This man was a puuure genius. No other man would have risked that much for a big fat joke like this. It is simply brilliant... I wish I had the guts to do stuff like he did.
priceless ..

Both Lawler and Kaufman are STILL famous.
Lawler continues to work in wrestling as a commentator for the WWE and is trying to run for Mayor of Memphis in a special election.

Does anyone else still wonder about Andy, though?

He "won" in the end. And, got the crown. It DID end when he "defeated" Lawler. It's all a bit anyway. Nobody really cares anymore.

wasn't that match between him and the wreseler a fake

Technically, yes, but Kaufman did take a suplex and three pile drivers, which is pretty badass, and paramedics did take him to the hospital.
I think he had some slight but legitimate injury, but he blew it out of proportion for effect. Called a sprain a broken neck or something like that.

This is from the longer documentary "I'm From Hollywood".

this is not a clip from that documentary, because it is narrated. the documentary had no narrated scenes, just commentary.

Some of those clips are in "I'm From Hollywood" but you're right there's no narration. There's no canned laughter either.
I have "I'm From Hollywood" posted on my channel if anyone's interested.

Contrary to the title, this isn't about Kaufman's intergender matches but his feud with Jerry Lawler.
