Timothy Tackett

Timothy Tackett, also known as Mr.UNST@BL3, is the 25-year-old Ohio man who uploaded the video Morning Coffee With Mr. Unstable on his MySpace page in early August 2008.

In the video, Tackett says he is taking a bubble bath in the large utility sink in a Xenia, Ohio Burger King, to celebrate his birthday. Other restaurant employees are seen laughing and joking while Tackett enjoys his Burger King bath. As the video circulated, it was eventually seen by the local Greene County Health Commissioner, Mark McDonnell. McDonnell immediately sent inspectors to the Burger King to search for health violations. The sink was sanitized, the utensils were discarded and all of the employees seen in the video were fired.¹
