JIM FLORENTINE
CH Awards: Best CD of 2004 - "Terrorizing Telemarketers Vol. 4"
TV Highlights: Crank Yankers, 2003 MTV Video Music Awards, Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn, Jimmy Kimmel Live
Why He's On The Site: Florentine's DVD, Meet The Creeps, features some of the most cringe worthy pranks ever seen...Florentine became famous portraying a retarded boy in his classic "Terrorizing Telemarketers" CDs. The character then morphed into the incredibly popular "Special Ed" on Comedy Central's Crank Yankers...Florentine's act consists of him talking about the fucked up things he's done to others and how twisted he can be...Florentine & Rev. Bob Levy guided a young Jim Norton early on in his career and are all still close friends...One of the greatest things I've ever witnessed in life was watching him & Norton playing the "You Dropped Something" game on the Comedy Cellar boat cruise
