Andy Kaufman gives hygiene tips

[garbageidiot]

It is said that his personality is real, and that he is sincere in his criticisms of the south.

[RonMotta1972]

Andy Kaufman, a non-wrestler, understood the business better than 70% of the people in charge of the business today. Now THIS is how you get heat.

[Dastreagus]

I think the smell is from industry, sulfer smell mostly when you smell something, New York's ocean is gross too though. And women from the Northwest need to shave if anyone does, I agree with: sonic

[SRNF]

I love to see people take this seriously, shows how stupid the world really is.

[kiesha86]

Man, just imagine how MAD those hillbillies must have been. Just look at his sneaky smile when he says soap.

[HylianSpirit]

"Don't know how to brush our teeth"

lmfao

[Texaswolf88]

B)

[medanzig]

Andy Kaufman, the original troll.

[chubbylilloser85]

Lmfao Good old andy. Plays the bad guy just as well as the good guy to a T

[AussieMatters]

Kaufman, just another Jew with his acting perverting decency, morality in the face of reality.

[zof31091]

lol at the gap-toothed guy at 2:57 "he says we don't know how to brush our teeth"

[zfjquery]

Andy Kaufman taking like an idle youtuber

[thtsritesun1212]

lol 2:46 an angry guy in a mello yello shirt. quite ironic

[Petey0707]

lmao this is hilarious

[jeffraizFILMS]

This also applies to people at comic-con.

[SpaceTestMonkey]

he knew this would end up on youtube after it was invented

[diex]

@SpaceTestMonkey time is a circle..

[lol327]

I'm sorry all y'all folk from the south, gahuck, but this guy is right.

Soap, razor, toilet paper. It's really not hard.

[SUpersaiyajinjerkbag]

I am offended by lack of andy kaufman's moral values. I'm here in Texas, and while we're different from southerners we stick up for our values

[Satzbay]

@SUpersaiyajinjerkbag lulz SUPERSAIYAJINS DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MORALS

[kainfury]

@SUpersaiyajinjerkbag

We all should be offended by your lack of understanding second degree humor.

[Petey0707]

@SUpersaiyajinjerkbag its comedy, values are subjective

[hellzbomber]

1:50 OMFG it's JOE DIRT!

:D :D :D :D :D

soap

[rft0013]

THANKS FROM TEXAS!

[walterbritley]

Soap? What is this soap you speak of? Where can I purchase this soap? I'm not sure if it exists here in Mississippi.

[mightyafrowhitey]

lmfao. what makes it so funny is that nick sitting in his swing like "none of that stuff is true, we use soap down here"

and btw, I'm from Alabama :P

[waswss]

u dont kick his ass.....decapitate him

[sonicdeath10]

None of that stuff he said was true: we use soap down here.

[lonelygnome1]

I've actually learned alot from this.

[llNoahTheHeroll]

hahahaha lol andy is hilarious...RIP buddy go stay on the moon.

[mudsiIImusket]

1) One time I had an argument with this Andy Kaufman fella. He was yakkin on about this & that, & got downright rude. So I smuck him on the head with a wrench & dragged him kickin & screamin to ma workshop. I puts his head in the vise & began to tighten it real hard like. Then I gots ma hacksaw & started a sawin the top of his skull off. All the time he kept a fussin & a cussin like nobodys business, & callin for some Mexican friend o his named Jesus.

[danielwerre]

Funny pseudo-southern grammar, but stupid, and pointless comment. -1

[mudsiIImusket]

2) When I finished, I seen his tiny brain sittin real purty there in the top o his head. I thought, hell, he dont need no brain while his heads in this vise. So I pulled it clean out, stuck it in a plastic bag, & put it in the freezer. Once in a while I pull a piece off, & feed it to ma dog while were listenin to Lynyrd Skynyrd.

[osvie01]

It was a wrestling angle in which he got burned by Lawler while he was sitting outside the ring during the match.

[truvelocity]

This is awesome, because it shows an interesting observation. My observation is that this comedian achieved this response when people were not as media savvy as we are, today. What is interesting, is that the yankee and southerner prejudice survives today.

[JABBADABBADOODOO]

you're = you are

your = implies possession of something

"This is a grammar lesson. Now, does it look familiar to any of you?" LOL

[some12b4]

are you serious? just to let you know, the other guy wins when all you can do is give grammer advice on a youtube comment. Its YOUTUBE Yes we could write proper but this is not the forum for you're gammer. ideas and stuff are good, giving a shit about grammer, bad.

[JABBADABBADOODOO]

you're gammer.

[JABBADABBADOODOO]

One more time - it's YOUR GRAMMAR, not you're gammer. I should know, I'm from Mayemfis, Tennis-see, see? Duhhh....

[JABBADABBADOODOO]

@some12b4 - No, are you serious? You copy and paste YOUR original, error-filled reply to me, instead of taking the opportunity to at least use the correct spelling that I supplied? YOUR punctuation could use some work TOO, and I am aware that IT'S YouTube, but at least try...I was on the Net before the Web, so I'm not new. Don't try to school me, you can't even compose a proper reply, let alone spell "reply".

[mudsiIImusket]

its a shame that some folks here think they is smarter than others, just cuz they finished high skool. but I bets yall cant trap & skin a rabbit, or milk a cow, can ya now?

[some12b4]

mudsiIImusket I actually can milk a cow. Goats are a bit tricky but i'll get there one day. Thankyou so much. jabadabadoo and you have brightened my day. Keep up the good work, and once again thankyou. chuckle followed by another chuckle.

[kazuo62]

@mudskillet

Most of us high school graduates don't need to hunt animals. We find jobs that pay money, which we can then use to buy products at a place called the "grocery store." Pretty wild, isn't it? We don't need to make moonshine, either, and a man walked on the moon and the Berlin Wall came down. Amazing, isn't it? But, ah... you go an milk those cows and be proud. Good for you.

[mudsiIImusket]

kazuo62

ya but when the Apocalypse comes, & there's no more grossery stores or electrisity, it's youse who'll be scratchin yer head wunderin how to survive.

[kazuo62]

mudsillmusket, I suppose I'll survive the Apocalypse by eating your liver with some fafa beans and a fine chianti. ffffff ffffff ffffff fffffff!

[some12b4]

hahaha followed with a chuckle. I am so very sorry for any offence I have caused. But fuck, you are batshit crazy. faaaaarrrrck, hehe

[danielwerre]

Please explain to the dipshits out there, the difference between "its" and "it's". I know it will be hard to comprehend for some people, but, like you, I'm sick of shitty grammar.

[JABBADABBADOODOO]

@danielwerre - It would be my pleasure to explain the difference between "its" and "it's" to are, I mean "our" hard-headed friends out there.

it's= it is (this is a combination of two words)

its= implies possession of something, such as, "I shot that critter and its head came plum off!"

Hope this helps! (but I know better) :(

[TobiasTunkler]

Hey, danielwerre, I just noticed your grammar policing and thought I'd put out the totally awesome irony that you fucked up on your grammar; you threw in a comma after where it can't be. Your little imperative "explain" is a part of the clause included what needs to be explained ("the difference between "its" blah blah blah"). You just threw in a prepositional phrase ("to the ...there"), which doesn't make a comma necessary. When I see such horrible grammar mistakes, I feel sick. Bzah, SUCKA!

[danielwerre]

@TobiasTunkler, I target individuals who truly butcher their thoughts to unrecognizable heaps of bloodied grammar shit. I threw in a comma where one was not necessary? Touche. The comma's presence did not, however, reduce my sentence to the status of "bad grammar".

[TobiasTunkler]

Daiel Werre, the "bad grammar" label is given subjectively. Your grammar policing, coupled with your comical insertion of a comma where novice writers tend to dump their commas (inserting when a sentence feels long, whether the comma is required or not), certainly looked like bloodied grammar shit to me. Stop fucking with people over their shortcomings, Grammar Cop. One of your superiors might come along to give you a little spanking. *whack!*

-Your Daddy

[danielwerre]

@TobiasTunkler, Tobias, please refer to me as "Daniel" and not "Daiel" as that is not my name. One could consider my pet peeve of having to endure bad grammar as a shortcoming. Considering that, you have demonstrated your hypocrisy. Stop fucking with people over their shortcomings, Morality Cop.

[TobiasTunkler]

@Werre. At the whim of your better, I'll refer to you as Daiel, Dickhead, or Blickleberg. There is no hypocrisy in my upright efforts at educating you, my child. You're a little grammar cop because you haven't studied linguistics. Read about prescribed vs. described grammar and read about register and languages used in social groups (like Internet chat forums where people don't give two shits about grammatical issues). Class is out, son. We'll meet again after you've done your assignment.

[PaulSpecter]

You Southern IDIOTS should take his advice and try to improve yourselves,but no you just like being Smelly Pigs.And to the guy who said he'd punch Andy in the face, Andy would kick your ass PUNK just like I would!!! If your a woman from down there and happen to not be a Big Fat Slob get to the Bus Station and GET OUT of there!!! Other States have normal men with brains!!! And don't even think of replying to this Hillbilly's or I'll Sue your ass, I'm from NEW YORK I can do that!!!

[T0PSLAYER117]

I'm assuming the reason most of these comments are so stupid is because most of these comments are from pro wrestling fans.

[PaulSpecter]

@T0PSLAYER117 I'm not sure what you mean? but you have to admit the fans from Memphis that are on all of Andy's clips are deserving of being made fun of,check them all out. When someone gets all upset with comments made by a "Bad Guy" wrestler it means big money for them which is the name of the game. I mean Really, those idiots thought it was real.

[34HourzDAiLYmedia]

@PaulSpecter u know this is a joke,i been to NY and half of the city is a dump and you know im not lying + NY has the worst Graduation percentage in the country,some of the worst schools in america so u really cant honestly say your better than ANYBODY

[PaulSpecter]

@34HourzDAiLYmedia I agree, I don't live in Buffalo,I live 20 miles away. But your comment calling me a serial killer was just STUPID!!! Was that suppose to bother me? If we were in person you'd be eating carpet now,then I'd hose you down. Don't worry I'll bring the the soap. Any more comments and I'l sue you!!! I'm the KING,I'm the KING,me me me,ma me me me.

[34HourzDAiLYmedia]

@PaulSpecter You would "hoes me down" & "make me eat carpet"? You send me a comment like that again & i`ll sue you for soliciting sex to a minor ,pervert.

[PaulSpecter]

@34HourzDAiLYmedia Well at least you finally admit your a pervert. "hoes"??? You should have stayed in school one more year and finished the Third grade. I'm the KING,I'm the KING,do do do,do do da do!!!

[34HourzDAiLYmedia]

@PaulSpecter i told you i dont want to be gay with you ,homo.Keep Fuckin with me & i`ll go get Chris Hansen on your old ass ,Phil.

[PaulSpecter]

@34HourzDAiLYmedia I NEVER brought up any of this man on man stuff which is obviously on YOUR mind. I've talked to my lawyer and we will be sueing you soon because ANY New Yorker has that right to do that to any southern hillbilly. Please let me know the Gay Bath House you go to so we can serve the papers.

[34HourzDAiLYmedia]

@PaulSpecter get over that shit all ready I AINT GAY MUTHER FUCKER GO SUCK SOMEBODY ELSE DICK U PERVERT!

[PaulSpecter]

@34HourzDAiLYmedia HEY,SISSY BOY,your the one that brought up all the gay stuff not me,it's sooo obvious your gay and your all upset I'm not. Just try to accept what you are,a BIG clue would be for you to look in the mirror and see the rash on your chin from all those hairy balls.

[34HourzDAiLYmedia]

@PaulSpecter STOP SENDING ME GAY MESSAGES WHATS WRONG WITH YOU,YOU SICK PERVERT!

[PaulSpecter]

@34HourzDAiLYmedia ONCE AGAIN FAGBOY, You brought it up because YOUR into that, NOT ME!!! And you keep replying because it must excite you. So Phyllis go wear your panties somewhere else.

[34HourzDAiLYmedia]

@PaulSpecter this is the last time im going to tell u ,I DO NOT WONT TO SMOKE CRACK AND DO GAY SHIT MAN WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU ,U NEED THERAPY U SICK MOTHER FUCKING PERVERT

[PaulSpecter]

@34HourzDAiLYmedia Yah sure it's the last time you Queer BitchBoy, "I DO NOT WONT TO SMOKE CRACK"??? DAMN just HOW STUPID are you??? You may not smoke it but the you sure sniff a LOT of Man Crack. I'm sure your whipping out you 2 inch dick right now you Disturbed little PUNK!!! I see you wrote at 3:00am, so be honest,how many guys GangBanged you last night??? you SICK piece of SHIT!!! I'm the KING,I'm the KING and YOUR the QUEEN,the QUEEN.

[origongas]

@PaulSpecter you sir are an asshole, sue me. greetings from Europe.

[mcschoep56]

@PaulSpecter Congrats Paul!! I couldn't have said it better myself......Mike from Wisconsin

[tygersflowerz]

I think the real reason that guy on the porch swing is so pissed is because he barely fits his pants.

[FusilliJerry82]

He was so ahead of his time. It makes perfect sense today in a context such as if it were a sarcastic Daily Show segment, but then it was unique.

[chasebcc]

what happened to the side of his face?

[mgrchip]

It looks like he really REALLY got banged up 'wrastlin' or he had a bad acne problem

[doctorspankluv]

Goin ta Vegas soon. Gonna see Clifton too.

[dknox60]

I don't know what he's talking about - we use soap down here - If I saw him walking down the street I would kick his ass - LOL

RIP Andy - your a genius!

[chucknchar]

these folks are now republicans

[AltruisticPervert]

Ha, the guy says; "no good for nothin".

[Lollarcoaster]

My favorite part was the guy who said "...(we) don't know how to brush our teeth" and he had a bunch of teeth missing. Funny shit. :p

[MechaDefta]

What happened to the side of his face?

[wherestheunity]

yeah whats with that

[gtz1975]

(LOL) directed toward Hillary Clinton 2:01

[peashow]

He is kidding around making fun of southerners...but he really does a good job of exploiting the stupid ones who don't get the joke.

[gtz1975]

0:54 product placement?

[klwewf]

You were wise to remove your comments. You can remove this comment as well.

[gtz1975]

"That dumb hillbilly Jerry Lawler"-funny shit! R.I.P. Andy Kaufman 1949-1984

[imgordonfreeman]

its funny because people actually take what he said seriously.

[pwnORdie]

Everyone that is offended by this must not be a fan of Andy.

[Phillovich]

what happened to his face?

[klwewf]

Jerry Lawler "threw fire" in his face. Good make up job, right? Brilliant.

[klwewf]

You can't be this dumb & ignorant. It was a bit, and over 25 years ago, by the way - long enough to get over. Jerry Lawler was in on this as well (from the South). He assisted Andy in planning this hoax. So, what do you think of Lawler?

[NotEvenSmoozed]

simply amazing isn't it? Over 25 years and people are still confused.

the man was a genius.

[PsalmLove]

sure was. rip andy.

[shadowrider6]

what kind of moron takes this as anything but entertainment.

[Kravis63]

Come on.. I'm convinced that you are just playing a ruse like Andy himself.

If your not and your really think Andy is serious with all of this, I am surprised you even figured out how to use youtube.

[elviswasSTRUNGOUT]

I don't know why people think he's being "funny" -- I give him credit for trying to educate Southerners about hygiene and use of cleansing products. God knows they need it.

[klwewf]

I hope you're joking. There are tons of mindless people here on YouTube. So, forgive me if you're NOT really thinking Andy was serious during this well constructed act.

[crazyivory09]

Its so funny how they take him so seriously!!! So naive!

[Edgaros]

1:07-1:23  lmao.

[esterinosevilla]

Man, this guy was a genius

[crazyivory09]

A true genius! And hilarious at it! Its so sad that the good ones always die!!

[jimmysplifff]

lol fuck thats funny he had huge balls rip andy thx for making me laugh

[gramfg]

Rip Andy Kaufman you will never be forgot about because you're a funny guy

[SignGuyDino]

If ANY celebrity should be in the WWE Hall of Fame, it's Kaufman. Genius.

[klwewf]

Hey "genius", one of the people that Andy admired tremendously was Elvis Presley (who was from the exact place Andy is goofing on here). This whole thing was a carefully planned bit. Don't take it seriously. You must be from there.

[klwewf]

Yankee Doodle, pal. Get over this, get a sense of humor & enjoy. By the way, only the classLESS Southern "hillbillies" were offended by this, because it hit too close to home. You have anything else to confess to the world? Hmmm...

[klwewf]

Oh, it's just you. I almost forgot what I wrote. Anyway, in regards to your having nothing to confess, too late. But, it's cool. I'm sure you do have manners. No one said "y'all" didn't. Just remember to use soap (not saop - not siuop - it's SOAP), tell your ladies to shave & for heaven's sake - use toilet paper!

[BlackieHugeHands]

Elvis freak, you seem to be confused. No one thinks these things that Andy is saying. Not even he believes what he is saying. He is playing a character you twit.

[elviswasSTRUNGOUT]

> I am proud of being from the South, where people have manners and treat others with respect

...as long as dey's white and Republican....

[lucybean975]

he didn't mean those things. he was playing "bad guy" wrestler and saying whatever he thought would make the crowd hate him. since Jerry Lawler--the good guy wrestler--was from the south, he just said whatever outrageous, nonsensical thing he could think of about it.

i'm sorry if i ruined the joke for some on the board. but Andy was never trying to hurt anyone. i hope you weren't hurt.

[elviswasSTRUNGOUT]

> you must be a Yankee huh

Really? Cool!

What position does he play?

[tattleboad]

boy, you a damn fool

[kromaniumb]

Dude, seriously! You still do not understand that Andy was playing a wrestling bad guy? This interview was all part of the act for his feud with Lawler in Mid South Wrestling.

You do know that wrestling bad guys are not REALLY bad guys right?

[guerrillajack]

@kromaniumb him and jerry lawler were actually good friends, lawler considered this "a shining moment for wrestling"

[OhNoItsGojira]

@kromaniumb Yeah, Andy Kaufman is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. What he did with Jerry Lawler and the Memphis scene at the time was utterly brilliant. He played it so well that the vast majority of people, even wrestling promoters from other regions thought it wasn't an act. Old school trolling at its best.

[js560000]

@kromaniumb This is a major problem in the South. A foul, foul smell in the air. Just take a breath, right now, as you're watching me. Take a with. You smell it? Urgh, it's terrible. Ladies and gentlemen, this is toilet paper. It is sold. All you people gotta do is buy it and use it. And you people should use it. I tell you and I guarantee you that that will stop the foul smell. It will bring the smell up to a level so that at least the air in the South will be almost breathable.

[Jma0322]

"don't know how to brush our teeth",

Is it just me or does the guy who says that have a few missing teeth?

[jadegizmo]

exactly what I was about to say then saw you already said it lol.

[sspdirect02]

He's living proof!

[54spiritedwill54]

this is hilarious.

[PukkPukk]

hehe

[Gettinghitonattheban]

Is that acne?

[DOGGYSAW]

Actually, that's a burn mark where Jerry Lawler threw fire in his face during the taping of Championship Wrestling. I was watching when it happened.

[usrbin1]

make up

[amadays1]

I got it then. This was taken from a movie that chronicled the Lawler/Kaufman feud. I saw it about 17 years ago in San Francisco. I had tears running from my eyes it was so funny. To me, anyway.

[zodiaczombie]

Greatest ever!

[fretkills]

say soap...

[Biffs1010]

R.I.P Andy Kaufman

[bedlum47o7]

This is funny but the problem is that NO ONE GOT his jokes until years later. when people cant see your joke then its not really a joke is it. I mean now YES his stuff is funny but he took a joke "TO FAR" and never told anyone. that really hurt him more then anything. his own family did not believe him when he said he had cancer... that is sad. But for all that i loved him he was just way ahead of his time. he is the only true free radical comedian ..ever!!

[tygersflowerz]

Good points... When I first saw this special I thought he might be mentally disturbed. lol

It's not easy being a trailblazer. Today, I think people would be a little more quick on the draw because we're more used to unique artists now.

Sarah Silverman is another fave of mine. Sometimes I look at her show and think "She would not get away with her brand of art, let alone be given her own show on which to express it, if it weren't for folks like Andy who had the guts to be edgy/different."

[mk20201]

Andy didn't make his career off of....."doody".

[tygersflowerz]

When you make a doody, is it in your pants? (Or trousers, as they said in the day?)

Sorry I'm just quoting one of my favorite Sarah songs. ;-D

[tygersflowerz]

BTW I was in the middle of turning some trix (with my spoon).. and I started laughing.

Hard.

Toilet paper to wipe their asses.. hahaha!! Funny.

Soap.. haha! Brilliant.

Riling up southerners? Genius.

Doody... now that's just moronic.

?????? ;-) ;-)

[bridgette1510]

Haha, I think this is funny but I love it in the south.

What happened to his face?

[ToferMc]

dumb hillbilly Jerry Lawler LOL

[quietcordial]

Some quality hygeine tips. I think I will go and have a shower now.

[Archigearour]

Absolutely genius.

[crawf061]

Andy could use some wet soap on his face

[veslefar]

KING

[thatobserverguy]

Why all the hate? He was only trying to raise them up from the squalor they were living in!

[gillywandoo]

ok so i comented on how he biggest and i know he is joking now but still omon that isent much humor but ok i messed up but i still dont like his 'joke'

[antivert]

It wasn't meant to be a joke, it was meant to get people excited for the "fight". This was the beginning of modern "professional wrestling".

[Makron5]

Stay away from Andy Kaufman and never come back. Your mind cannot possibly comprehend his type of humor.

[gillywandoo]

i dont even live in thhe south but he is a ignorant, biggest look at me im perfect craphead!he has the nerve to coment on a country that has helped up alot and he repays them by talking about how they cant name a bar of soap!charming!

[holybfd]

He wasn't serious about it. It was all a joke. Obviously you don't know much about Andy Kaufman because this is his type of humor. He used to do stuff like this just to see people's different reactions because it was humorous when they thought he was for real.

So, ironically, you're part of the joke now. Because you fell for it. That's the exact reaction he was usually found hilarious.

[sspdirect02]

Kind of like when you watch professional wrestling and you think it's real but it's all fake. It's called kayfab.

[house5052]

LOL! Southern folks really wanted to kick his ass. I don't blame them though.

[lygophile]

andy goes all out to give ye sutheners some tips to help ye out, and whats ye thanks?

must uh pissed him off i bet.

lol, if people really are so blind they can't see that at most he is actually rediculing steriotyping...

ah but its his way to make sure that people that can't get his humour stay away from his shows.

[WavyG]

Why are these people bitching? Andy Kaufman gave a great public service announcement on important hygiene tips to the ignorant southern wrestling fans, and they all TURNED ON HIM! I guess you just can't help some people.

[benedictanus]

lol ... not everyone can appreciate Kaufman's humor. Personally I think he's a genius.

[nikator11]

you might be more clean then him but you will never, i mean EVER even if you lived forever, reach half his IQ. you will always be a sheep that gets offended by stuff they see on their screens.

[excelsior34]

Supposedly Lawler burned him. LOL this is hilarious stuff ...

[Nikki82]

Aww what happened to his face??

[uhhtheman]

I always felt that this was a sort of counterpoint to racism in the south. "you people".

[abnormaltelepathy]

This is brilliant! The scabby Andy Kaufman telling people to go have a shower.

Haha!

Too much exposure to this sort of material would upset anyone :D

[ZiggyShiv]

add soap to the list of words that sound weird when you repeat them several times

[mrinnocentcody]

the interviews are the best, "says we don kno how to show err."

[fushigilady]

What's with his face, does anyone know?

[ponchowiggly]

this is hilarious.

[Redrobin63]

Ladies and Gentleman, this is Toilet paper!

[hutter71]

I love how the rasslin' fans didn't get the joke.

Kaufman was one of the greatest heels of all time.

[tabber87]

Haha!

"Soap. S. O. A. P. Soap."

Awesome!
