Andy Kaufman was as much a performance artist as he was a comedian, embracing eccentric and sometimes confrontational material that sometimes drew uncomfortable giggles or puzzled stares more often than belly laughs. But Kaufman's best stuff stretched the boundaries of comedy and was remarkably funny, and this video, recorded during Kaufman's 1979 show at New York City's Carnegie Hall, captures his oddball genius at its best. Watch as Kaufman imitates Elvis Presley, sings children's songs, using Native American healing techniques to raise the dead, defends his title as World's Intergender Wrestling Champion, and presents the world's most annoying lounge singer, Tony Clifton.
