Salvatore Edward Anthony Vulcano

Sal Vulcano (born November 6, 1976), born Salvatore Edward Anthony Vulcano, is an American improvisational and stand-up comedian, actor, and producer from the New York City borough of Staten Island. He is a member of The Tenderloins, a comedy troupe consisting of himself, James Murray, Brian Quinn, and formerly Joe Gatto, with whom he stars in the television series Impractical Jokers, which premiered on TruTV in 2011. He is of Italian, Cuban, and Puerto Rican descent, attended Monsignor Farrell High School, and received his undergraduate degree in finance from St. John's University in 1998.

After reuniting following college, Murray, Gatto, and Vulcano began practicing improvisation at Gatto's house and toured as a sketch comedy troupe in 1999, calling themselves The Tenderloins. They posted sketches on YouTube, MySpace, and Metacafe, accumulating millions of views, and in 2007 won the $100,000 grand prize in the NBC "It's Your Show" competition for the sketch "Time Thugs." Impractical Jokers premiered on December 15, 2011, was watched by over 32 million viewers in its first season, and became the most popular series on TruTV. In one notable punishment, Vulcano received a Jaden Smith tattoo, which became a running gag for the show.

Vulcano has also appeared in The Misery Index, hosted by Jameela Jamil, and made a cameo in the 2022 film Clerks III. He co-hosts the podcast What Say You? with Brian Quinn, which was named Best New Show at the 2013 Stitcher Awards, and the podcast Hey Babe! with fellow comedian Chris Distefano. He has been part of live Impractical Jokers performance tours since 2012 and released his first full-length stand-up special, Terrified, via 800 Pound Gorilla on May 31, 2024.
