Maurice Barnett (Blastphamous HD)

Richard Maurice Barnett (born: October 16, 1985 [age 36]), better known online as BlastphamousHD TV (usually abbreviated to BHD), is an American YouTube reactor, vlogger, musician, commentator and gamer. Barnett created his first YouTube channel, maurice barnett, on March 2, 2008, followed by his gaming channel BlastphamousHD Gaming on June 5, 2013. Rise in Popularity (2014-2017) Barnett would go on to create BlastphamousHD TV on November 12, 2014, BlastphamousHD Pranks on November 30, 2014 and BlastphamousHD TV 2 on November 6, 2015. Because they are primarily reaction channels, they are set up accordingly with the majority of their content in response to various videos on YouTube. On some occasions back in 2015 and 2016, these videos had to be reduced to YouTube's standard 15-minute limit as he monetized them and got copyright notices as a result. Commenters have repeatedly pointed out that his videos increase by the duration of the original video, which is refuted by many who argue that the extra time is spent adding content to the video for him to pause. He was praised for this method of reaction.
