Sadly, Andy is "most-likely" dead. I think he had a plan and told his close friends that he would fake his own death (by cancer) just to make us wonder if his death was genuine and to continue playing with our heads after he was long long gone, which is what he loved to do.

I am a big Andy fan, and I think its a cooler thought that right now he and Elvis are chillin somewhere up there together. Andy is the best!

Dude I wish he was alive. It would have been interesting to see what he would have done. Very ahead of his time.

@DaNoles1999 Actually.. before talking about "Federal Crime's" you should know that no where in any book or law does it say you can't fake your own death.. But, what could make it illegal is if you fake your death while, or to, avoid a debt, avoid going to prison and I can't remember that last one.. So yea, learn the law's before saying them. And it's a shame, I'm only 17, how old are you? And I know my laws.

Kaufman's death certificate is on file with the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services and is also available on the popular website The Smoking Gun.[31]

Andy would be very unhappy at the way his fans are ruining one of the world's greatest bits (whether he's dead or alive). Go listen to "Man on the Moon". The song says it all but no one appears to listen. The idea is to leave the question open yet his fans seem to always need to believe he's absolutely dead.

@ MrKingzingsting what? what are u talking about? what does that have to do with andy kaufman?

[MrKingzingsting]

"As a magician I promise never to reveal the secret of any illusion to a non-magician, unless that one swears to uphold the Magician's Oath in turn. I promise never to perform any illusion for any non-magician without first practicing the effect until I can perform it well enough to maintain the illusion of magic."

If he could, Andy would love this "he's alive" nonsense...but he can't, he's dead.

There's no way a prankster could keep this going for 26 years, and then just turn up...a 62 year old man...5 years, maybe. 10 at a stretch...

Enjoy the footage of his life and performances that is so easily available to us now, and leave his poor dead soul alone.

when he's almost about to die for real he will be on tv and most people wont know who he is so thats the best joke and ending

[DaNoles1999]

If he is alive he would never let the public know as it is a FEDERAL CRIME to fake one's own death!
