  Zaphod Beeblebrox - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zaphod invented the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster, and is the only person able to drink more than three of them at one sitting.
As a character, Zaphod is hedonistic and irresponsible, self-centered almost to the point of solipsism, and often extremely insensitive to the feelings of those around him.
Zaphod is played by Sam Rockwell in the film version of the story that was released in April 2005.

 BBC - h2g2 - Zaphod Beeblebrox
Zaphod Beeblebrox is a native to Betelgeuse Five and grew up with his semi-cousin, Ford Prefect.
Thus Zaphod Beeblebrox is one of the best Presidents the Galaxy has ever had, having already spent two of his ten years in office in prison for fraud.
Zaphod Beeblebrox is notorious for having run off with the most technologically advanced ship of its kind, the Heart of Gold, (which runs off the Infinite Improbability Drive, meaning that it passes through every single point in the Universe simultaneously) when he was in fact supposed to be launching it on the planet Damogran.

Zaphod Beeblebrox was now the ex-President of the Galaxy, and though every police force in the Galaxy was currently pursuing both him and this ship he had stolen, the Vogon was not interested.
Possibly the horror that Zaphod experienced at the prospect of being reunited with his deceased relatives led on to the thought that they might just feel the same way about him and, what's more, be able to do something about helping to postpone this reunion.
Zaphod felt he was teetering on the edge of madness and wondered if he shouldn't just jump over and have done with it.

His friend Ford Prefect, he comes to learn, is actually a researcher from a planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse, but before he can even begin to comprehend this fact, he finds himself zipped up into the confines of the Vogon space cruiser that has just destroyed the planet Earth.
Things become even trickier for him when he discovers the great usefulness of sticking a Babel fish into his ear and then meets the singular President of the Galaxy Zaphod Beeblebrox and his shipmate Trillian, both of whom Arthur actually met months before at a party.
Everything from the characters' names (e.g., Ford Prefect, Zaphod Beeblebrox) to the omniscient and sarcastic narration (e.g., the head of the construction crew at Arthur Dent's house at the start of the novel being a descent of Genghis Kahn) makes this novel difficult to overlook.
