The first time we had Mark Malkoff on the show, he was sleeping in an Ikea while exterminators fumigated his New York apartment of roaches.

Malkoff documented the adventure on his Web site, MarkOnAirTran.com (AirTran was his benefactor and sponsor). Here are a couple of the video highlights -- including a highly scientific airborne pastime (ever heard of the Toilet Paper Experiment?) and a desperate pursuit of cleanliness.
