Samuel Whitcomb Hyde was born on April 16, 1985 in Fall River, Massachusetts to Lena (née (((Goldstein)))) and Joseph Hyde. He was raised in a secular Jewish household and attended B.M.C. Durfee High School. When Hyde was 19, he spent 100-120 days on a heritage trip to Israel through the Birthright Israel organization. He attended Carnegie Mellon University, and after one year transferred to the Rhode Island School of Design and graduated in 2006 with a Bachelor of Arts in Film, Animation and Video.
Hyde created Million Dollar Extreme (MDE) in 2006 as his senior project at the Rhode Island School of Design. He stated MDE's mission was to "prep the bull, challenge cultural norms, ask big questions, tackle stale paradigms and enstill [sic] an inquisitive spirit into the minds of the 21st century generation."
"Hoaxes"
Hyde 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 as being responsible for the suspicious death of a restless negro in Piedmont Park. Most of the "hoaxes" prove that Hyde is an "absolute madman", and complain that "he can't keep getting away with it." These hoaxes, in some cases, have even been picked up by journalists as factual. Some of these hoaxes, the media doesn't even know what they are.
