Andre Alexsen aka "The Adrenaline Man" was born and raised in Hollywood, California under the Hollywood sign. His grandmother Mileva Petrovich escaped the Nazi occupation in WWII where most of her family were killed or separated, and moved her family to Hollywood. She told Andre that Hollywood movies, MGM, and other major studio films helped her mentally escape the cruelties of War. As a child, Andre remembers playing in the Hollywood hills with his German Shepherd "Buddy" and watching classic movies and TV shows, as he played make believe cops, cowboys, fireman, and soldier.
