Kai the Hitchhiker
When Kai hitched a ride with a stranger he probably wasn’t expecting to save a life or become an internet sensation as a result. However, that’s what happened when an interview with the laid back hitchhikers took the internet by storm and resulted in several parodies. Perhaps this proves everyone does get 15 minutes of fame.
Tobias Fünke
Tobias Fünke was at one point a standby understudy for the Blue Man Group. He “blue himself” and waited until 8:01PM every night in case he was needed to fill in for a spot. After being disappointed each time, he would remove the makeup and be left in his infamous cut-off shorts.

Alistair Hennessey
