Comedian pranks TedX at DrexelUniversity

Watch comedian Sam Hyde take the piss out of TED talks at Drexel University's TEDxDrexelU. From Philadelphia Magazine:
The event concluded with Sam Hyde, billed as a video documentary filmmaker and journalist from Brooklyn who recently returned from Mogadishu, the most dangerous city on earth, where he shadowed the heroic al-Mahamud women on their quest to clean up their streets and restore humanity to their war-torn country. TEDx organizer Dhairya Pujara introduced Hydes presentation, titled 2070 Paradigm Shift. Hyde, 28, is not a journalist; hes a member of the Massachusetts-based comedy troupe Million Dollar Extreme, which employs a type of shock-value comedy along the lines of a more goalless version of Yes Men sabotage.
