Let Us Look At Andy Kaufman’s Best, While He Fakes His Death

Akaufman1ACCORDING to the brother of comedy legend, Andy Kaufman, the star faked his own death in 1984 and is still alive. Appearing at an award show named in Andy’s honour, Michael Kaufman said he had received a letter from his brother, confirming he was alive, in 1999.

He then introduced a woman who claimed to be Andy’s 24-year-old daughter.

Of course, bizarre things like this, farcical situations, uncomfortable silences, half truths and all that fun stuff, followed Andy Kaufman wherever he went. This is likely to be another case.

However, whatever the outcome, this is a perfect opportunity to have a look at some of Kaufman’s wonderful, and weird work. You game?
