Andy Kaufman sings to Jerry Lawler

[PaulSpecter]

Just when I thought I saw it all I see Police Women of Memphis on TV, Memphis is FILLED with STUPID SCUMBAGS!!! If you live there your a TOTAL LOSER!!!

[kgrusso]

He was at that.....i missed him on taxi and loved the movie...

[kgrusso]

He was a great talent for his day but people didn't pay to see that!

[Rorix9]

@kgrusso thats his gimmick...give ppl what they didn't expect, create an akward atmosphere. He was good at it

[myfriendangel1]

lol he had these people all fooled 

[psychogorilla]

14 people didn't want complete silence

[sportsoracle]

As classic as Andy was, having Jimmy Hart manage him in the wrestling storyline put this over the top. Jimmy to this day is one of the 2 greatest heel managers ever along with Bobby The Brain Heenan.

[tedcantu1]

one of my ex gfs stole this off me -- this is AWESOME... I love this song, and how he taunted Lawler... its just over the top, and it really angered the South... Hilarious

[LaughingatpainUSAway]

1:22

[dkupke]

Kauffman's villain character was ahead of its time in terms of making the audience feel personally involved in the match. If you watch today, you can see where wrestlers are referencing his character when they mention the name of the town they are performing in or address the audience directly.

[nico44ever]

John Cusack and Robert Smigel has more of a resemblance to Andy Kaufman than Jim Carrey

[tonymontana1974]

im the king im the king im the king of memphis tenesee.

[newpepsipopup]

I love how the people genuinely hate him

[megahyp]

I wish Andy knocked out those two dumbass kids @0:52

[Menegoth]

Everyone in the arena: trolled hard

[Razersun]

The godfather of trolling.

[WoodyLittle]

"I'm the king, I'm the king of Memphis, Tennessee..."

[cha5]

"YOU HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING, UNTIL YOU'VE MET THE IRON FISTS OF ANDY KAUFMAN!!!" :D I love it, this just never gets old.

[CatapultYourMom]

The place is almost empty.

[AntaresInScorpius]

@CatapultYourMo almost emptly?? they filled the mid south coliseum for professional wrestling every week, long before the wwe came along.

[Chrisdrumz]

@AntaresInScorpius Look at all the empty seats. The whole thing had by this point gone on way too long.

[dirtfan91468]

Andy was the greatest there has never been a comedian try the things Andy did and thats what sets him apart from the rest.

[joethecabdriver]

Greatest heel in wrestling history.

[McNugget06]

Troll... lol

[sbarudzija]

damn andry kaufman was a genius. he taught the people of memphis tennesse to hate and distrust hollywood.

[Chetto888]

the irl master troll

[aquaristic]

Andy Kaufman somehow reminds me of Gene Wilder in Young Frankenstein, maybe its the voice or the hair...

[MrXero24x]

Andy 4-life

[MrToniClifton]

He's GOD!

[FreeDogdylan]

@MrToniClifton , Rather he was a jewish supremacist, that with the help of his New York and Hollywood jewish friends could go out in the media and smear good white christian people and call it comedy.

[nilbog44]

@FreeDogdylan put down the crack pipe dude

[kiesha86]

bwahahaha all those people were taking him seriously ?

[FearAcademy]

i see alot of hillbillies who bought into his comedy by thinking he was serious

[ebeneezzer]

There were a lot of wrestling fans all over the country, particularly New York City, who wrestling just as seriously

[BrawlyProductionz]

damn people were aggresive in the 80s

[mrgetemkid]

ahahahahahahahahah silence at a wrestling match classic

[pope6789]

asks for silence, lol, brilliant.

[ljcteehee]

Does Andy have on star-shaped sunglasses? lol.

[handsomebwonderful81]

andy kaufman is awesome

[Ferrymartyr]

look at how retarted the audience is reacting to his mockery of their ignorance

[brabon1]

@Ferrymartyr he was playing the heel and they bought it...it was brilliant

and lawler said it was his fav time in his entire career

[suspekt29]

@Ferrymartyr LOL. Nice

[whothejames]

I've been training man, I have been TRAINING!!!

[BigCarreyKauffmanFan]

Holy sh*t he scared the hell out of me! He`s really convincing; way ahead of his time. ANY TIME! He was a god of performance artistry. God bless him; I enjoy watching him everyday and I hope to trick people during a show. Like, during Barney a horrifying picture pops out and screams for 2 seconds, and goes back to the show. Is that Kaufman-like, or evil.

[DocLeggz]

Both.

[XCisor]

@BigCarreyKauffmanFan that is such low humour man what have you been watching ebaumsworld too much

[BigCarreyKauffmanFan]

@XCisor lmao I know, eh? What was I thinking!? Hahaha.

Nevertheless, we shall still enjoy Andy.

[dantheangryman]

@BigCarreyKauffmanFan thats a little something i like to call child abuse.

[droneXA]

King of Memphis

[goldenagenut]

LOL Kaufman ran circles around those rasslin' fans heads! The ultimate heel!

[wotdoesthisbuttondo]

that beeboobooboobebooboobooing cracks me up

[thebestpathetic]

Fuck man you gotta love andy kaufman

[joshula13]

ssjin4gohan,you are a fuckin pencil necked fuck,you don't need to fuck with a grown man like me,you 3 Doors down listening fucker,you suck bitch

[ajax420336]

Andy Kaufman was a genius performance artist and the greatest heel in the history of pro wrestling. Respect.

[Zaxxon2008]

@ajax420336 i wholeheartedly agree

he was even more hated than Flair at his best!

and THAT is saying something!!!

[shatinterry]

Always so entertaining from this guy....

[PaulSpecter]

Memphuss, the A-Hole of the USA. And to the women,it's NOT alright to have children with your brothers and cousins.

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

@PaulSpecter haha and learn to speak english properly, not with some distorted slang. You're gonna wrastle me Lawler, you're gonna wraastle me?

[PaulSpecter]

@LOLDISNEYLAND That's so you FOOLS would understand it. When talking with IDIOTS from "Memphus" you have to lower yourself to their level so they can understand what your saying. Any more of your BIG Mouth and I'll come down there and shove a bar of soap down your throat,don't worry I'll bring it since I know you don't have any there

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

[PaulSpecter]

@LOLDISNEYLAND You seem to have only one thing on your mind Gay Boy. I think your panties are too tight and it's cutting off the circulation to your pea size brain.We don't wear cowboy hats in NY,but I'm sure you can find a cowgirl hat where you live.

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

@PaulSpecter LOOOOSSSSSSEEEEERRRRRRR!!!!!!!­!!!!!!! 

[PaulSpecter]

@LOLDISNEYLAND That's the best you could come up with??? Your even more STUPID than I thought . I doubt you'll reply to this since the gay bars are probably open now. Your nothing but a VERY DUMB PUNK!!!

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

@PaulSpecter DOOOOUUCCCCHHHHEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PaulSpecter]

@LOLDISNEYLAND You are one disgusting little pervert. How can you stand being around yourself???

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

@PaulSpecter PaulSPHINCTER

[34HourzDAiLYmedia]

@PaulSpecter we all know your a serial killing rapist phil

[PaulSpecter]

@34HourzDAiLYmedia This comment is as STUPID as you are. Sounds like your feeling a little guilty about something in your past.

[SevereRepugnance]

Haha!

[GreenWhiteWall]

Hahaha great

[joshula13]

fuck you jizmo123555555555,you couldn't do shit to me,i'll say what i want to,boy

[joshula13]

[Srd1126]

Q: What do you call a roomful of 15 year old southerners in the third grade?

A: The gifted program.

[gismo1235555]

fuck you you southern piece of shit. i should kick your ass for saying that about the world trade towers

[ssjin4gohan]

you can suck your cows boner you pube sucking fuck!!! now you do something about it you fuck

[ganggreensoldier]

im the king of memphis bitch lol

[DrVegasIII]

It is absolutely yet awkwardly entertaining to see how the southerners react to this --- They really get extremely upset!!! LOLOLOLOL

[FreeAvidD]

yeah, Southerners are also really stereotypical...

[PaulSpecter]

I just watch "Real Vice Cops" from Memphis, the cops down there are as STUPID as the people!!! All through the show they're smacking their gum!!! You people need to remame it to Moronphis!!!

[Stereolabdream]

What is so fabulous is that Andy plays the ultimate comedy "Heel"...and now Lawler has become just that!

Great stuff...pure theatre...just look at their faces!

[saj8]

The Miz's unfunny ass should take notes.

[emoviebuff87]

it's hard to believe that in real life, they were friends.

[movieofmenywatch]

LOL AWESOME  Andy is so awesome !!

[Zaxxon2008]

I DEMAND COMPLETE SILENCE!!!!

[psychogorilla]

@Zaxxon2008 That's one of the best lines you can use to guarantee boos, all the way back from the old school days where that never, ever worked.

[PaulSpecter]

Does ANYONE know how I can get a hold of that kid in the red and white shirt? I'll come down to Memfuss and give him a slap side the head, he must be pushing 40 now,the same as his IQ. And Memfuss women get to the Bus Station and get yourself a ONE WAY ticket to ANYWHERE!!!  but PLEASE NO FATTIES !!! You Pigs STAY THERE!!!

[PsycReaper]

memphis dude memphis

[PaulSpecter]

I'm the New KING and I don't want anymore of you Hicks replying to me or I WILL SUE you ALL for HARASSMENT , I'm from NEW YORK and I can do that to ANY of you Memfus Fools,do do do doot doot da do I'm the new KING.

[24klc67]

This gets funnier every time I see it. Andy Kaufman really knew how to work a crowd.

[PaulSpecter]

Check out those two STUPID kids, they are now full grown MORONS like the rest of those SCUMBAG JERKS!!! Elvis, HOW could you live there???????

[kmillie]

Are you kidding? A lot of successful people are from and still live in Memphis. Have you ever heard of FedEx?

[PaulSpecter]

I'm going by all the people on the tapes,they don't have a brain in their heads,come on, they think wrestling real. Sure they're all not idiots in Memphis but I was talking about all the ones on the tape.You have to agree with me on that point??? I mean Really!!! I made the comment to make fun and piss off those Morons like Andy did. And those 2 kids, PLEASE!! no wonder no ones with them.

[gtz1975]

I have the Andy Kaufman WWE legends figure!

[r2d2ott]

What a heel! Love it.

[vigo894]

Chris Jericho reminds me of Andy Kaufman. In that, he talks too

much, and makes an ass out of

himself. Only, Andy did it to make us laugh.

[iMnOTcRAZYyOUaRE]

This guy is in the zone !

[lonchecaliente]

ya andy!! he makes himself the guy you LOVe to hate@!! ahaha

[YouDickwod]

jim carrey is so funny

[LeFruFru]

you fucking imbecile.  that's fucking ANDY KAUFMAN. not washed up unfunny jim carrey!!

[YouDickwod]

then wheres jim carrey?

[CarlGomes]

lol

(u are funny too, man)

[cheminwey]

He was a master of performance art.. yeahh!!

[jknoble]

no crazy this is andy kaufman!

jim carrey played him in the movie man on the moon!

and he is still alive!

[ButterOnCorn]

So he did not die? I am confused now

[ButterOnCorn]

this is jim carrey right?

[ljsavmech]

He was an American who became famoue for his e-euro act and accent. He was the Borat of the 70's. He was killed inthe early 80's when he told a pro wrestler that his sport was fake and the wrestler did a pile drive on him the broke his neck in the ring. Before that he was on the letterman show and said the same thing and the westler slaped the hell out of him. We will never know if it was all part of his act gone wrong or murder.

[depler]

Andy was killed by lung cancer in 84, you fucking retard

[stonecoldsat]

hahahaha.. man yur hilarious.. wot yu tokin bout.. he never got killed..he died later. the match you were tokin bout was just an act...lolxx...

[ljsavmech]

as I stated at the time this was going on I was a kid. I also was a wrestling fan and the guy who manage kaufman came on national tv and told the world that the king was the one who casue Kafuman's death. I for 30 + yrs had belived a lie. If you look for the vids you will see for your self where Kaufman's made the statement it here on you tube. sorry now that I'm an adult and Ive looked it up I now know diff. thanks for your reply

[stonecoldsat]

[tico8007]

jimmy heart and lawler were young, time has not been kind

[gtz1975]

The match I would love to see is Andy Kaufman vs David Arquette

[ColbyPictures]

hahaha this feud must have been the best publicity wrestling will ever have

[HeroNoah]

LOL The Man On The Moon...one of the funniest movie ever. GO ANDY

[jimikasa]

andy was the man! thats how you wind people up!

[evilmidget]

Now THIS is how you put a celebrity over. Andy was a great promo man and a surprisingly good ring psychologist. I will never forget these white hot promos he did.

He truly knew how to get under the fans skin

[tinybreadwennie]

He yells SHUTUP!!! hella loud on Man on the Moon but its just as funny how he yells I want complete silence.

I wonder if he did the bar of soap demistration like he did on the movie

[GreatReno]

lol i know a lot of u dont like me lol

[ConalCochran]

"I want complete silence!!!!"

LMAO!

Legend.

[Pallindrom27]

How I'd LOVE to find out that Andy pulled the wool over everyones eyes by him coming out out LIVE on Monday Night RAW to call out his old "Friend" Jerry Lawler!!!!

[blueinfinite]

i don't care what anyone says - Kaufman was the greatest wrestler ever, better than Flair, Triple-H, Cena, Lawler, all of them put together!!!

[mpm112599]

I miss Andy.

[StevieSwigginburger]

THIS was Greatness.

[cashdandies]

So funny how the kids in the background really HATE him and pull faces at him. I wonder how these guys feel about it now, 30 years later

[forbiddenvalley]

One crazy genius comedian...a whole audience of southern white trash...a clueless professional wrestler...and one of the greatest hoaxes in show business. Amazing.

[jimikasa]

not exactly clueless, lawler was in on it.

[Zaphrod88]

fearless.

[rufusman2008]

Seems like he annoyed more than just the Southerners in Tenn. He annoyed his directors, he annoyed producers, he annoyed [film] company owners, and he got himself banned from Saturday Night Live via a phoned in vote not unlike what American Idol does for its contestants. By the time he died, many people were fed up with his "genius" and not too many mourned his passing...

[cwegers1]

He wasn't interested in playing the game as it was expected from the public. Wrestling is probably the most popular television in the US, and it's also the most purile. It's hilarious how many . morons he would have pissed off by acting insanely imature . He was fucking loving it , good on him. he was just disgusted at the shit the American public were and still are served up with every day by TV execs' that use lowest common denomenator tactics.The articulation is basically identical.

[lucybean975]

Andy was wildly creative, no doubt. one of the few true originals. but the funny thing: i think he actually liked bad-guy wrestling. i believe he was a fan of it.

[klwewf]

Another one of you, huh? You people must be really pleased & excited YouTube forums exist. Your ignorance would not be tolerated otherwise.

[alhenrymc]

this guy is absurd ,,a comic my arse .a freak junkie

[klwewf]

Thank you for adding to the comment count, getting this "freak junkie" (as you call him) even more attention. You're either a fan (as I am) of what he did overall. Or extremely gullible. Either case, you promotoe & publicise Kaufman. Cool. You have any more to add? I hope so. I liked the last one.

[jeffmagic32]

silence! complete silence! lol

[custer1968]

I'm'from England..but i remember this..hahaha...so funny..Andy was lucky he didn't get shot... :))

[BufordStone]

The funniest thing is that Kaufman took time out of his regualr career just to annoy the south.

[peacelord]

I would have enjoyed it too

[PeterMayer]

That's not too hard...

[ViewAskewFilms]

hah jimmy hart was managing kaufman at that time

[Bunnypunker]

You obviously did not understand quite anything about Kaufman...But in the end,according to what you said maybe he achieved what he wanted to do.

[SurfieInACT]

Very harsh. But that's my opinion. He is not everyone's cup of tea. But I loved everthing he stood for and how different he was. Absolutely amazing person. I hope Joaquin Phoenix is going for the same thing...

[Hutchinson712]

did you actually just compare kaufman to borat?

[Daisyxpie]

this guy remind me of sacha baron cohen (not sure if thats spelt right) the guy who plays Borat, like so daring, he can stand in front of a crowd of people who hate him because of the person he pretends to be, and find it hilarious ..like when Borat sang the Kahzakstan national anthem in front of all the patriot red necks in the rodeo LOL

[battlestarmarc]

Kaufman was so funny !! would Memphis wrestling had gone big time if he did not pass away so soon ?

[JonBiggE]

I wish we had an Andy Kaufman to... THAT SONG IS WHAT JASON SENSATION SINGS ON THAT SMACKDOWN COMMECIAL LIKE 10 YEARS AGOLOL... THEN LAWLER COMES OUT OF THE BATHROOM STALL HAHA!

[midge9000]

this is sooo fuckin funny!

[Chrisdrumz]

Lotsa empty seats in the ol coliseum.

[jessie74]

I love how the rednecks wanted to literally kill him.

Andy fed off of this......brilliant!

[nycgangbanger]

I love Kaufman

[chibangin007]

great acting. he's got all the hillbillies thinking its real. no wonder they thought wrestling was real. they're idiots

[molecaster]

he was so funny, i can't believe people too him seriosly.

[jhaul21]

I love how he brings out the stupidity of the South

[Alfrunk]

"I love how he brings out the stupidity of the South "

Yep And they take the bait every SINGLE time. Notice how he controls the crowd by insisting on silence before getting in the ring. They want to see him get beat, so they follow his directions.

[horsesflu]

I didn't think Kaufman controlled the crowd by insisting for silence, and then getting it - he's the heel: he controlled the crowd by insisting for silence and NOT getting it.

When you're the bad guy asking for silence from a mob that hates your guts, they're going to do the exact opposite, as shown in this video. Their booing got more intense with his plea for silence.

They wanted to defy him -- which he understood, and played upon.

[ronvonhesse]

lovn that hairy chest on the luscios one.. yeah

[JosephShlabodnik]

Best IRL troll EVAR

[bblokes]

God I love that man.

[dtan117]

haha, man, what an act!

the crowd is what makes it

[mihiro2]

hahahahahah MASTERMIND!!!

[andrew77claassen]

Andy Kaufman was a genius, nothing like a prank as big as he does.

[entwistle1383]

Im from up north(Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts) and up here we a great sense of humor about our region....lighten up a little, it was all an act, Kaufman was a brilliant comedian

[wwechamp7]

do you live near cenas family

[thetenia]

Glad you said that, fuck Mass. and fuck the Kennedys, they should all be killed, and are.

[condicionXdulce]

they "are" killed? nice grammar.
