Samuel Whitcomb Hyde (born April 16, 1985) is an American comedian, writer and actor known for his culturally critical, anti-comedic and occasionally shocking style of humor. Hyde is the co-creator of the sketch comedy group Million Dollar Extreme along with Charls Carroll and Nick Rochefort. Their television series, Million Dollar Extreme Presents: World Peace, premiered on Adult Swim in August 2016, but was cancelled in December 2016, which Hyde and Don Jolly attribute to Hyde's vocal support for President Donald Trump.
Samuel Whitcomb Hyde was born in Fall River, Massachusetts on April 16, 1985. After graduating from Wilton High School, he enrolled at Carnegie Mellon University. Hyde spent one year at Carnegie Mellon before transferring to the Rhode Island School of Design, where he graduated in 2007 with a B.A. in Film, Animation, and Video.
In 2013, Hyde delivered a rambling prank TEDx talk titled "2070 Paradigm Shift" at Drexel University that received significant media attention. When asked about the intent of the prank, Hyde expressed his dislike for TED talks, calling them "really self-congratulatory."
Hyde(similar to Ben Garrison) has been incorrectly reported as the perpetrator of numerous mass shootings and terrorist attacks by internet trolls. The first instance of this hoax was the Umpqua Community College shooting. Hyde has also been blamed for the 2015 San Bernardino attack, the 2016 UCLA shooting, the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting, the shooting of Alton Sterling, and for the suspicious death of a black man in Piedmont Park. Trolls who push this hoax typically ask the question: "How does he keep getting away with it?"
