New York, U.S.Medium Television Website http://www.markmalkoff.com/ Mark Malkoff is an American comedian, writer, and filmmaker who formerly worked for Comedy Central's The Colbert Report. He is a graduate of New York University and currently lives in New York City.
He moved into an IKEA store in Paramus, New Jersey for a week as his apartment was fumigated.[1][2][3][4]
In June 2009, Malkoff lived on an AirTran jet for 30 days in order to conquer his fear of flying. After completing this endeavor, he broke the Guinness World Record for most flights taken in a 30-day period with 135 flight segments.[5]
In July 2011, Malkoff tried to be thrown out of a Manhattan Apple Store, including having a pizza delivered, bringing in a band to play live music, bring in a pet goat, and trying to have a quiet candle-lit dinner with his wife.[6]
On Septermber 29, 2011, Malkoff gave free cab rides out in New York with the catch of strange behavior and other quirks from the driver, as well as antics as the passenger area slowly filling with popcorn.[7]
