Andy Kaufman at The Improvisation pt2

[psofojohn]

3.56 sounds fucking awesome...

[EpicDoucher]

he should have got a standing ovation

[luckybriaN100]

Talk about talent! This guy had it all. Thanks for this great clip.

[wh1tebr3ad]

random as fuck lol

[JesusFishAndFriends]

the ending when he walks down the hall...

[TheyCallMeSlimDavy]

An hilarious act, but more to the point, boy can he play the bongos!!!

[Seinfeld182]

"Our next performer..." LOL how the hell do you follow such a strange performance like that? I'm not a HUGE Andy Kaufman fan but when he's funny he's REALLY funny. like can't stop laughing funny

[28Carrot]

Where can I get that shirt D:

[andrewdeangelo1]

okay........stop hating on this guy,he was a true artist and a great comedian..you will never match the great andy kaufman...now go cry

[MayorsOffice881]

@andrewdeangelo1 He wasn't a comedian, he was more of a song-and-dance man. ;)

[hamlanzon6]

That guy was great. Totally unique and a great conga player too!

[thisalexstein]

I love how he face fived all the next performers at the end.

[loidspc]

i'm sold! totally! it's like one hell of a roller coaster ride!

[MrHerbsmann]

@gonzomoya420 How dare you fucking say youre glad hes gone. Even if you dont like his incredible genius, go fuck yourself and dont watch his videos in the first place. To say that to someone when you dont even know them? You must be smokin some laced dope there. Of course, you take it even further and chirp Jack Black and Vince Vaughn who are both great comedians. Its as simple as you smoked yourself stupid and you dont understand different methods of comedy. Go trolling somewhere else you fuck.

[Gottzilla]

3:04 Yma Sumac! :-)

[1loveshop]

the sound only comes through the right speaker. Couple of other kaufman videos I was just at had the same problem,

[gonzomoya420]

@mcmillspiece why because we don't like this pie-faced conman? you're just mad because the only people who like him are nerdy white boys with no girlfriends and sticky fingers like YOU.

[Lukypet1]

Andy is great and the best comedean ever!!!

[mrpresident4200]

I want that shirt hes wearing,he had a great style of dressing

[videos4mydad]

I would hate to be the guy who follows that!!

[lisarayone]

Everything he did seems to be planned. He had a method to what seemed to be madness.

[MurariHariDas]

он гениальный. и почему я тоже не стал клоуном? )))))

[mspollybratz]

I LUV ANDY HES SO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kidmongo1]

I like how he used the motions of stand up comedians to get the crowd laughing, w/out telling a single joke at 4:23.

[Ne0mega]

@kidmongo1

that was amazing

[FILMMAKERCHAP]

I like the fact that he just did whatever he wanted

[ReeseMac]

lol@The ending; mushing people out of the way

[kaitlinan]

I keep watching the end (7:43) where he smashes his hands into everyones faces, oh my god I can't get enough of Andy :)

[nacholu28]

@kaitlinan I fell off my chair at that part!

[tetrabud]

he is awesome :D

[sykocop69]

this clip soothes my soul. :)

[themooddisorders]

Jim Carrey should have had best actor for his portrayal.

[ElanaVital83]

Pure magic. I've seen other videos of him doing the same routine, and it's perfectly choreographed. Bravo!

[ste43]

I want that song played at my funeral it's wonderful

[paulblasi4]

OMG he is brilliant. 

[miljenko1]

This was the first "Borat", don't you get it?

[Tulljfette]

I want that T-shirt.

[louis621]

i love how he just smashed everybodys faces when he was leaving, it was great...

[ivorbigonee]

oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh!!! lol

[Lachdenan]

Did they develop the Meisner method of this guy or what? I'm not really clear on that. He certainly seems to epitomize it...you know, as well as being a total goofball.

[gullfiskibolle]

7:45 +++ hahahha. everything else is also pure genius!

[davidrayking]

what a GENIUS!!!!

[screamit1]

whats hilariuos is he has complete control over the audience but seems like hes totally bombing

[likeiis]

A true entertainer.

[lordsandwich399]

holy shit i just lost the plot at the end when he was pushing all of those people

[bloosman1]

Ibby dahj LOL

[videovedo36]

I love him.

[cubanscarface]

man, Andy was so ahead of his time. No wonder he wasn't appreciated for his work.

[ElanaVital83]

@cubanscarface He would've owned You Tube for sure.

[MilkyLicker3587]

Kaufman proves that you don't need to actually say anything at all to be funny...the facial expressions and voice inflections do all the work on their own.  Brilliant.

[kurczepieczone]

Was that even a language ? XD

[jbonestoney2]

what a fuukin genius

[yatyas72]

This is retarded!!!! How over rated!! Never seen this guy do anything funny

[PAULFC93]

@yatyas72

Noo...whats retarded is a 37 year old man going on youtube and critisizing videos he knows he dosen't like<<<thats fuckin retarded

Andy Kaufman was a genius

[ivorbigonee]

@yatyas72 nevermind. there must be a part of your humour missing when you was born.

[gonzomoya420]

@yatyas72 Amen! Unlike the rest of this cattle you and I can see that the emperor is naked and unfunny.

[ElanaVital83]

@gonzomoya420 Wow, you're troll commenting all over Andy Kaufman's videos.... you must be a big fan. :) And in the true spirit of Andy Kaufman, you're comments sure do get a response. Kudos, my friend.

[HippiexChild]

What the fuck is so funny about this?

[MilkyLicker3587]

@HippiexChild - That Kaufman could have tricked your mom into giving him a blowjob and she'd think it was an ice cream cone.

[HippiexChild]

@MilkyLicker3587

Oh wow. Why don't you go suck andy's dick since you like him so much.

[MilkyLicker3587]

@HippiexChild - Why don't you get lost, you fuckin' troll? No one asked you to think this was funny. If you don't, that's your major malfunction. No one gives a fuck.

[HippiexChild]

@MilkyLicker3587

I didn't know people could troll youtube.

[MilkyLicker3587]

@HippiexChild - Surprise, asshole!

[lol327]

@MilkyLicker3587 haha a bit ironic that you're telling people to not troll a kaufman video ;)

[gonzomoya420]

@HippiexChild nothing at all. if he did this in a comedy club in my city he would get hurt....badly.

[FromtheLandofGorch]

@gonzomoya420 Jeff Foxworthy is probably huge where you live... glad I don't live there.

[gonzomoya420]

@FromtheLandofGorch I live in Maryland. Comedy here is basically straightforward with jokes about politics, and everyday life. this guy was nothing but a conman, just some rich kid who paid to be on stage and then tried to make fools out of the audience. He probably paid for protection b/c if you do crap like this and you're by yourself you're gonna get your ass whipped. I'm glad this guy is gone too many unfunny ppl already like Jack black & Vince Vaughn

[Warhawk101]

@gonzomoya420 You must be a very boring person. You only like one type of comedy... about politics.. Ugh.

[PixelPwner]

revolutionary

[bartonchief251]

this is so awesome absoulty genius

[BigCarreyKauffmanFan]

Wow that was an amazing song haha

I`ll put it on my mp3 (;

Its AMAZING that he would have NO idea his audience, yet I wish many others knew of him.

RIP Andy

[xxxquentintinoxxx]

That made my life!

[waswss]

uneducated bastard

[ihavelilt]

What the fuck there is no sound you dashed my hopes asshole

[dt1708]

Put the resolution on 360p and you will get sound

[TheKirb90]

omfg its the opening to borat XDD

[R0SECR0IX]

Love the ways it cuts at the end: 'Our next performer...'

is sitting backstage thinking why the f--k did I even bother coming.

[synchrony00936]

Brilliant.

[tawil89]

Andy Kaufman didn't do "impersonations". No. He became someone different during his routine.

IOW, he wasn't ACTING like someone else, he WAS someone else.

[ivorbigonee]

@KingOfFreeWorld u sad twat

[KingOfFreeWorld]

@ivorbigonee u sad fuk

[ivorbigonee]

@KingOfFreeWorld u sad cunt

[BeatDemon08]

@tawil89 Who said he did "Impersonations"?

[nellgwen48]

@tawil89 I like his impersonation of Archie Bunker.

[john7maheras]

@tawil89 Its says Improvisation no impersonation

[theglitch82]

Beautiful.

[klwewf]

This was one of his best. But, his greatest work is getting many many people to believe he is still alive. I'm amazed at how many don't know how he did it. He clearly knew he had a cancer before he revealed it to ANYONE. Then, he told a few individuals he was going to "fake" his death by having cancer (BEFORE revealing that he actually had it). The man was brilliant.

[batgirl518]

i can't count how many times i've watched this; SO funny.

I love at 2:25 how it looks like he's about to sing, then he plays some more :D

andy's so addicting

[nomad10101]

i know, i've watched all 4 parts like 5 times. i might need a hobby. either way, kaufman is unreal in my book.

[TheChukklez]

@batgirl518 About 16,000 times? ^.^

[lonelygnome1]

lol I love how he just pushes everyone's face at the end.

[JoeB0y16]

Sorry. It was a website I was on that blocked it because I can only get it on one speaker.

[spanischerschka]

Man I'm like watching this for the seventh time now and it doesn't lose any of its wit.

It's killing me how he solely entertains with gestures while speaking this caspian language.

Also the weeping followed by the sinister laugh :D

[TwiPrime]

And the stitch in his side! lol

[TwiPrime]

The sinister laugh following the frantic crying kills me. :)

[Doothe]

Inspiration for the voices in the Sims?

[WarpDriveStudios]

He's pretty good on the conga drums

[klwewf]

Andy really did great work.

[YouDickwod]

Get a fake passport while your at it.

[noreflection]

I have noticed so many people have been inspired by his work.

[MetalJakk06]

Bloody brilliant

[TMack222]

The word genius is overused....but not in Andy Kaufman's case. Doesn't do him justice.

[NixSeb]

4:38

lmao at that face

[jopollak]

Oh Lordy he is funny!

[eternalsunshine75]

he was really special...

[red425]

It's jibberish. All of it is jibberish

[TheOuterMost]

I've heard so many idiotic sex and drug jokes over the past nine years that when I watch this I feel DIRTY. The innocence and brilliance of Andy's act always delivers me laughs but also NEVER fails to hit my heart.

[wildflower12]

This show his absolute brilliance. How he can keep this up for seven minutes is amazing.

[NikosGlasses]

3:04

Heh.. ;D

[ScrapMetal55]

This is closer to genius than the first part. This actually took some initial forethought and talent. It definitely wasn't thrown together, and if it were, and he were alive today, those guys on Whose Line is it Anyway would have some REAL competition.

[klwewf]

Who the hell are you? In fact, nevermind. You're better off staying anonymous writing the foolishness you do. "This part is good, the first part wasn't forethought". If you can't see this was all well constructed, you need an analyst & need to get out of comedy, if in fact you really are a "comedian".

[klwewf]

And, what happen to your comments on parts 3 & 4 of this? There's no way you can deny the awesome creativity of that. Again, probably jealousy & aggravation you have no ability to be that innovate & talented.

[bungbung13131]

how did the first part not take forethought and talent? to think of using a routine bordering on anti-humor, then taking it the other direction and starting to play the hapless comedian, then mutating seamlessly into tribal drumming, and that didn't take forethought?

[busybeingbla]

@bungbung13131 which was the routine part? I'm not as familiar with his drumming works. I'm sort of a newbie. :)

[busybeingbla]

@bungbung13131 OH! I get it. I watched the first part just now. Sorry. ^.^

[huncamunca218]

I think he is slipping into an imitation of cantorial singing at 1:47, not Swedish.

[ALittleBitOfGreen]

awesome!!

[Scientifikally]

inimitable, loved, missed...

[spankysteez]

amazing

[imsorryfortomorrow]

Andy Kaufman will always amaze me.

[samu999]

guys, pay attention at the end, when he leaves out he pushes people in the face!

[RKD0708]

Nope. It is not Swedish. I live in Norway, right next to Sweden. And I know how they talk in Sweden.

[RKD0708]

That is not Swedish. It`s no language at all. Sorry.

[MonquiJulia]

just today i saw Man on the moon... i got curious about this man... he is so sweet (that's not the impression i got from the character in the movie)!! and i don't understand why i laugh at such stupid things... he really was something special

[tygersflowerz]

"You're hitting nail with your head, buddy boy!" (- Simka Dahblitz)

That's why I hate Carrey's interpretation. (Dont get me wrong, I love Jim Carrey, just not in Andy's role.) He didn't capture Andy's sweetness and childlike heart. He made it seem as if Andy's love for messing with people came from a negative place... and it didn't.

[Julievogh]

@tygersflowerz That is so true! Jim is great, but didn't catch Andy's soul!

[ALittleBitOfGreen]

i also saw the movie and I had to come to see videos on youtube... i think the movie totally gave a wrong vision about him.

[klwewf]

Exactly.

[springsten]

Wow... it's really funny that he's speaking swedish. Just so random

[Kudell46and2]

its that swedish???

WOW

[ACigarCalledRob]

really?:P i thought he was just speaking jibberish haha whats he saying then ?

and that is jut random lol love it

[AlfSpungie]

Seriously, he's talking swedish? Are you sure? It sounds nothing like that.. O.o

It's not like I don't believe you, but I'm from denmark, and danish and swedish sound a bit like eachother.. xD

[springsten]

It really is swedish, he lived in sweden for two years when he was young

[enchantella]

Nope, it really is NOT swedish. Definitely not.

[springsten]

Seriously. It's swedish

[AlfSpungie]

Well, what does he say then?

[xbedroomeyes]

this is so good its beyond words.

[aphexmandelbrot]

Dear Mr. Kaufman,

Please come back.

We miss you.

[CL121076]

7:46...LOL i thought he was high fiving them but look cloesly

[tygersflowerz]

That high note at 3:06 was epic. haha!!

[npowerjohn]

Come back Andy.  We need you.

[CL121076]

But he'll get arrested if he comes back right? It's very illegal to fake your death.

[tygersflowerz]

From what I heard recently, if you're gone up to seven years, and then return, they can't charge you with anything. That's just what I heard from someone. Doesn't really make much sense.

[YouDickwod]

yeh, but he's dead.

[YouDickwod]

What the fuck are you talking about?

I was replying to somebody who said he was alive.

[YouDickwod]

Well, you had no idea what you were replying to so I suggest you sit back and shut the fuck up, mister know-nothing.

[YouDickwod]

Exactly. Your not saying anything....

[klwewf]

The subject of this thread is Andy Kaufman. I am here because I appreciate his work / material. I will be moving on now. You're too silly.

[YouDickwod]

Thankgod, because your an idiot.

That's all you are and that's all you'll ever be! bye bye!

[klwewf]

You know, I used to think that people from the UK were kind, generous, polite, intelligent, rational, logical individuals. I still feel some are. But, you did help to kill that stereotype. You display odd & disturbing behavior. Have you read your comments back to yourself. I mean, you're off the wall. Seek an analyst. And, that's not an attack or me being mean. You should really seek care. Maybe just anger management.

[YouDickwod]

LOL! What does me being British have to do with anything? I think you might be a little ignorant.

[klwewf]

You're right. I agree 100%. There are stupid people everywhere. You're no different. Again, I realize you're not as mature as the British people I have had the pleasure to meet. Try learning though, mate. Cheers.

[YouDickwod]

Wow. Your a complete and utter idiot.

[thedavidstrikesagain]

This is amazing. Thanks so much for putting this up.

[misuruchan]

lol that was pure genius. and i hope i spelled that right.

[SnoocheeBoochees]

you did
