Sam Thorne



Sam Thorne, the full name being Samuel Lucas Joseph Thorne, otherwise known as Strippin, is a YouTuber in the Yogscast.

Summary
Though it was initially rumored that Sam joined the Yogscast after thrashing Simon and Lewis at poker, this has been confirmed as a joke. Despite his reputation as the Poster-Boy of the Yogs team, Sam prides himself on being a no nonsense man. Despite popular belief, Sam is not a porn star.

Video Appearances
Sam first appeared in videos in Duncan's first Tekkit series along side Benjizm as a member of the infamous duo Rail Bros Inc. Sam also assisted Rythian in his HoN hero spotlight videos before the introduction of Zoey.

He was also featured in some of Martyn's videos, including his 12w38a snapshot video, where he tried to fight the witch and repeatedly fell into holes built for lighting purposes and on Martyn's Halo 4 livestream (which was hijacked by Simon and Lewis when the two left the room to get some food).

Sam was very active during the Christmas Livestreams, one of the most memorable moments being him removing his shirt as a reward for reaching £100,000 in donations.

Since Christmas of 2012 Sam started up his own YouTube gaming channel. His channel features action games like Devil May Cry and Deadpool, vlogs and the popular Yogcraft series called Rail Bros Inc.
