Yes and no. Just like Tony Clifton, Kaufman switched identities with cancer stricken Nathan McCoy. Nathan died with Andy's name. Andy, a devout Buddhist, vanished with Nathan's name. Stanley Kaufman proved his love for his son by signing a fradulant death certificate. A select few proved their love for Stanley with total silence.

When did Andy Kaufman die?
I have done lots of research on Andy and he said that if he were to fake his death (meaning he would be alive today) that he would return 20 years later... so he died in 1984 which means that he would have returned in 2004...and I've seen enough proof to know that the great andy kaufman had an outburst on tv lately.... so basiclly what im saying is that it's not just a wish, it is never not true ANDY KAUFMAN IS NOT DEAD!!!
How did Andy Kaufman fake his death and what does Stephen Maddox know about it?
After many years of planning Andy Kaufman faked his death by switching identities with a dying man. Five people assisted him in doing this. Two female friends and three members of his immediate family. The dying man used an alias with doctors until he died. After death Kaufman's father completed the death certificate with his son's information. Andy kept the dying man's identity a secret from his co-conspirators so he could live his future life without fear of being traced. To this day his brother Michael does not know Kaufman's name or his whereabouts. Samuel Maddox & his son Stephen were hired by Kaufman prior to his "death on paper" to help coordinate his after life with the ultimate goal being immortality for Kaufman. Kaufman, unbeknownst to the general public, was a deeply spiritual man and used his performances to highlight various religious customs. He was last photographed in Baltimore in late April 2015.

They didn't, because sad to say, Andy Kaufman died of lung cancer on May 16, 1984 in Cedars Sinai Hospital, West Hollywood, California. There is an official copy of his death certificate, and as far as we can tell, Andy is still dead. But some passionate fans, including the Maddoxes in Indiana, have refused to believe it. Stephen Maddox even registered a website to promote the conspiracy theory that Kaufman's death had been a giant hoax. But believing something does not make it so. To this day, there is no concrete proof that Andy is alive and well and living somewhere secret, despite the various theories and beliefs you can read online.
