One small detail from the Star Fox series that often gets overlooked is Star Fox's metal legs. Look at any of the original artwork or promotional materials, and you see Fox, Slippy, Falco, and Peppy all with robotic-looking legs and feet, with ankles too narrow for them to just be boots. They're even present in Smash Bros! But WHY?!? The Internet's working theory has been that the lack of legs allows for greater resistance to G-forces the pilots' bodies go through when performing high-energy combat maneuvers...but is that REALLY true? I intend to find out!

Think you know why Star Fox has no legs? Think again!
Woooo
hi
I think I do.
Woww Awesome
Do a shovel knight pr shantae theroy please
Okay with all the science I've now absorbed from this video, I have some proposals to make flying SUPER efficient
-If your blood pulled away due to those Gz, fill your body with so much blood that it can't move
-if blacking out is due to the distance between your heart and head, amputate your neck to shorten the distance
-If your blood keeps rushing to your legs, put tiny springs in your body to push it back up
There you go, work some magic on that Government!
I cant think of anything wrong with your suggestions. XD

"Can't you just take my word that I don't have robotic legs?"
I get that reference.
Fox in space is so good
"I'd really like to, but... Can't you just do it for me just this once? I've gotta know for sure."
Ah that reference
Mmmmmm yes
"Don't call me Star Fox. Star Fox is my team, not my name."
if you know this refrence i swear

Exactly:p
It was confirmed in an interview with one of the creators of the original that Star Fox's supposed artificial legs are really just metal boots.

Game Theory: Why is Fox so fast?
@@YukiColburn ...have you rver seen a fox run in real life? They are fast as heck. At least that what (the) Fox says.
Sorry couldn't stop the pun.
THEORY DISPROVEN
Wanna chat with me? For the next hour, I'll be over at my Star Fox Reality Check video (bit.ly/1K9s21t) answering your questions and talking all things THEORY!
The Game Theorists Can you do a theory on why mario can survive in the cold worlds of his games in just his shirt, and overalls and not get cold?
Hey matpat, what's your favorite theory so fair???
hey matpat, how are ya? have you considered doing an Animal Crossing theory of some sort? Or another Mario theory?
Okay, question:
What microphone and/or headset do you use?
I'm pretty sure you already answered this in one of your videos, but I just want to make sure.
The Game Theorists OMG I IS TO WEAK TO TALK WIF THEORIST OVARLORD
Matpat, you may understand anatomy, but this is the realm of fluid dynamics. This is the ratio of blood in the system vs space for that blood away from vital organs. You are correct that the body would not stand a whole human's worth of blood while legless, but look instead at the pilot in the high Gz state.
Blood flow across the body is a combination of muscles and blood pressure. Blood naturally wants to pool in the legs as part of gravity, but pressure and a constant flow makes it easy to keep blood flowing to the brain. A non-amputated human in a high Gz state has the blood sinking into the legs, since the extra g forces overwhelms the careful balance.
This also happens to amputated people, but the lack of legs means that the blood is pooling closer to the heart, meaning the pressure differential at the heart is less. This leads to a higher likelihood that the increased blood pressure near the heart will push blood upward into the brain.
Your icon made be think a spider was on my screen
XD
... I don't understand 😢
You should do theories, bruh. You're so smart...
so much sience😰
Quoting the official Nintendo Power Players guide, "The Arwing's revolutionary G-diffuser system generates a force field that protects the ship from enemy fire and from the stresses of high speed aerobatics." G force is not a factor. Regarding their legs, originally Star Fox was planed to be made as a television drama, akin to Thunder Birds, using puppets (which is a recurring motif in Nintendo's other commercial adverts and even game elements and characters because of Miyamotos long running admiration of puppeteering, e.g. Puppet Ganon in Wind Waker or the puppets used in a JPN Four Swords commercial) the legs (looked) mechanical because they were basically action figure joints and all subsequent media took cues from the original puppet designs, which followed even to the puppets made by Jim Henson Studios for the Star Fox Zero promotion.
Oh cool!!!
Nintendo Power Players isn't even canon though, it's some American magazine, so you are quoting something which no actual Japanese official or creator of the franchise has ever even said, heck you aren't even quoting even the Japanese, who are the creators of this franchise. Your quote is thus useless, it was literally the Nintendo power Player thing that created the myth that they have metal legs, and the actual Japanese creators had to come out and correct this myth and say they don't have metal legs. I am pretty sure I am going to listen to the actual creator of something, over some random American kids spreading around myths.
i always thought they were just metal boots...
***** he's also a talking fox that stands on two legs and operates a complicated space ship. Your point?

Wow, at 13:18 MatPat was shockingly close to Miyamoto's actual answer.
HoodieSticks which waas...
Chris Biebel Basically, ( if i remember correctly ) Miyamoto said that it was just metal boots and the fact that it looked like metal legs was just a design choice.

hes gonna do another video on star fox and then wait 8 more years
But he maybe played star fox in 2015 🙂💭
Lmao
They explained this already. This shouldn't even be a theory, honestly
Saw the title and thought the exact same thing.
Xander Davis hes even talked about it before
Xander Davis The explanation was wrong :)
The Game Theorists hi
Death Battle already covered why Fox has no legs anyway.
I did a research paper on Douglas Bader in college. Dude was a total badass.
Call Me Nefret I know someone in my class that has the last name Bader 😫😫
Fox has prosthetic legs... But... But.... NO ITEMS, FOX ONLY, FINAL DESTINATION!
zoingy101 NO FINAL, ITEMS ONLY, FOX'S DESTINATION
You need ti learn some fucking grammar

"Cant you just take my word for it that I dont have robotic legs?"
See? 100% stock
But your skull kid
Yay another parody account
Yeah I don't have robotic legs.
Do you hear that?? It's beautiful silence and there no FNAF fans in sight :').
Daniel Reilly He's still wrong though.
Finally....
Daniel Reilly Still a crap ton of furries, though. That won't change in a LONG time.
Don't jinx it because sooner or later they will be asking for the Five Nights at Freddy's 4 theory once the game releases.
But what if they still request him to do a theory for FNAF 4 even though it hasn't been released? It will happen, I know it for sure.
Isn't it obvious? He performed human transmutation and lost his legs as a result.
Dominic Richardson I hope that doesn't exsist

"My name is Fox McCloud, NOT Star Fox. My TEAM'S name is Star Fox."
ScrapzMask
*Teams
Not team’s
That’s like saying “My team is name is Star Fox.”
But when you take out the apostrophe it becomes
“My teams name is Star Fox.”
Ya see what I’m saying?
ARealyWitty Pun shut up grammar nazi
ARealyWitty Pun - Sorry, but you're the wrong one. That applies to "its" and "it's" but not to most nouns. The apostrophe is used for both possession and contractions. "Its/it's" is an exception. I don't know why; perhaps because "it" is a pronoun, and using "its" for the possessive form keeps it in line with "his" and "her". But that's just a theory - a grammar theory. ;)
ScrapzMask ayyyyy
Yes clearly a fox in space fan
Do a theory what behind the mask of the shy guy is
blokjes meneer it’s already been shown just google it
blokjes meneer Behind the Mask of a Shy Guy...
Is a very irritated person asking for his mask back.
I no
He did
@William Vassar Those aren't shy guys. Those are ghost guys.
[Correct theory at the end of the video] "... Nah, that couldn't be it."
Did...did you call Fox McCloud "Star Fox" the entire episode, or am I just missing something? I thought Star Fox was the team.
He's referring to the whole team, because the whole team as robotic legs.
9:33
"When Star Fox loses a leg, or two, _he's_ also..."
Ace Leader9 I thought that too until I came across this line.
John Of Earth i guess the moral of the story is no one is perfect. Even MatPat. (Let the MatPat fan girl hate flow.... does MatPat have fan girls?)
John Of Earth This and when he pronounced Rosalina "Roz-a-line-uh" is what makes me fear for MatPat's speech sometimes.
John Of Earth who the fuck cares.

Never thought I'd see Pillz-e pop up at Game Theory. Foamy the Squirrel is probably my favourite old online cartoon series.
Damn, I haven't watched Foamy in years
Oh! that's why Fox falls Fast as f##k on Super Smash Bros
yep
It's also the reason when I play as fox on smash bros and he never goes the way I want him to. HE CAN'T CONTROL HIS LEGS
But foxes eat hedgehogs
Loophole..
That's not how gravity works m8
So, one day they had to get Krystal and hold her down as Peppy got the hatchet.
crazyinsane500 Then clearly she would no longer be interested in fox and I can...
Jamal Davis Krystal-senpai will never notice you.
Imma be a party pooper and say that since Starfox Adventure they retconned the whole robot legs as you can clearly see in the designs for the following games since adventure.
MrLCGO You don't know that. They could simply have more realistic robot legs.
Jamal Davis they said in an interview, because they felt it was too dark. If you look at the designs, Fox wears bulky boots and Krystal uses more tight boots but they're still following the form of her legs. You can find the info easily in google, even in Dykgaming about Starfox.
Just a thought, considering the futuristic setting of Star Fox, couldn't the robotic legs also be designed to increase blood flow and stuff to reduce the effects of G-force?
+Nickolas Marchuk Maybe, but what's more interesting is the fact that people with a higher blood pressure would fair better in the air. This means Biggie Smalls is a good candidate for being a fighter pilot.
+Matthew Geiberras "Biggie Smalls" is a bad choice for a fighter pilot because dogfights are really stressful for the body, WW2 pilots after Midway had to be lifted out of the cockpit because they were so tired. Also the higher his weight the more effect G has on the body.
+Nickolas Marchuk i have the nintendo power that goes over this, the magizine it says, "Early Fox designs had his feet stuffed into constrictive metal boots. These new kicks (it was star fox assault's model) are far more comfortable but still offer plenty of protection." he has legs in the newer models, so im calling this game theory 40% true because there were more games without the metal legs.
+Matthew Geiberras So is that why there was a fat guy in the red squadron in star wars?
That Oscar Pistorius sounds really cool I hope he doesn’t kill anyone
😭
Hello fellow South African what I rare breed I have found here in the wilds known as the UA-cam comment section.
He is a fighter pilot so highly unlikely but the chance are never 0
Lol
I remember reading an interview with Miyamoto (or a similar high up at Nintendo) who said the only reason they had metal legs originally is because they didn't think the feet of the puppets would be photo'd, so they just built something that would support the top half of the body. He even pointed to Starfox adventures as an example of fox not having metal legs as he's wearing boots instead.
metal prostetics still sound more awesome tho
It's kind of weird that he just referred to the Star Fox 1 character images as "artwork". He never even seemed to realize they were photos of actual puppets.
I always thought they were boots, until I saw the old version of the game.
Me too lol
Foxy?!Is that you?!
No
Aww
Hero LumiEre Lumanite Fail.
The whole idea that star fox's metal legs make them run faster can't be canon or true. Look at them in any other game, adventures/ assault, etc. They don't run very fast, even when compared to landmasters in the multiplayer. Maybe the reason they're running so fast in the N64 multiplayer was just due to good old fashioned N64 fantasy fun, and to create a somewhat balanced multiplayer addition. Maybe the whole reason the creators of star fox gave them metal legs was because back in the good old SNES days, it was still earnestly believed that having no legs as a fighter pilot would make you a better pilot as you would be less susceptible to g-force (case in point, the cultural and historical impact of those three fighter pilots from world war two who had no legs)
PokeYankeefan Also, we see krystal, a fox assumably, walking on two feet, while clearly having her natural, biological, and non-amputated legs.
PokeYankeefan Game logic
PokeYankeefan You can make the "ignorant game developer" argument for almost any of the Game Theory videos. I think that argument kinda defeats the whole purpose of the videos.
Yeah, that makes sense. Like metal feet could have very well have been a design choice only because it looks badass
PokeYankeefan Yeah, I was thinking that the whole time. Its kinda dumb he's ignoring things that disprove his theory outright, especially when its visible in canon material at a glance.
I thought it was kinda weird how fast Fox could run in Star Fox Assault. But the whole not being able to balance on their normal animal feet is disproven with Krystal. In Adventures..you see her wearing sandals. Her feet are kinda humanlike, but still look like paws. She walks and runs normal in that game.
And krystal still have legs
Ruby Holliday exactly! I’m suprised Mat Pat didn’t touch on her *no furry pun intended 😂 *
We never amputated our feet in the first place bud...
"Ugh a frog?" Are you some kinda frog racist, MatPat? A frogcist? Or... Fracist? D:

Microfrog our universe is a frog in homestuck: mspaintadventures.wikia.com/wiki/Genesis_Frog
nah it's actually pretty great
***** I bet you haven't even read it
***** random unfunny pop culture? Let's take a look at this plotline. I don't know why, but random things introduced in early acts coming together in unexpected ways to produce something amazing is beautiful to me. (act 3-5 spoilers below):
Jade and her dream self are introduced in act 3. We're meant to assume that her dream self is merely a way of seeing images of the future, as well as a potential way of talking with John after he wakes up. We also meet Jade's dog, Bec, who is the world's "first guardian", and therefore is near-omnipotent. In the first flash he's in, we see Jade shoot him and him teleport throughout the universe.
In the end of act 4, Jade's dream self dies. We think that this happens just to put the kids at a disadvantage, and turn Jade away from sleeping after that horrifying dream bubble animation.
In act five during the Enter animation, John tries to prototype Jade's kernelsprite with something stupid, but Bec won't allow that. He prototypes himself into the kernel, giving all the enemies (and most importantly, Jack Noir, making him unbeatable). Why? Nobody knew at the time, but if he presumably loves Jade, then why would he strive to make an almost unbeatable final boss?
The kernels second prototyping is with Jade's dead dream self, an act done to try to resurrect her like she did with the bird outside of Dave's window (-.-), however, her dream self hates it and runs away to the battlefield.
Later on in the act, John god tiers, and we learn the true purpose of the dream self. When you ascend got tier via quest bed, your physical body combines with your dream self to give you powers based on your class and aspect.
At the end of the act, Jade dies, and Jack Noir, combined with Bec's undying loyalty for Jade, carries her to her quest bed where she ascends God Tier. If her dream self had remained dead, this would be impossible and she just died. However, since she combined her dream self with the sprite HUNDREDS OF PAGES EARLIER, she god tiers on the battlefield, combining herself with Bec and also gaining most of his powers.
However, that's not even why Bec prototyped himself. Act five introduces the green sun. It was talked about earlier, but in this act it's revealed that it's the source of the first guardian's power. Dave and Rose went on a mission to destroy it, and take out all of Jack's powers so they could kill him. The mission fails, and ends up actually creating the Green Sun.
Now, if you'll remember, first guardians are also omniscient, meaning that Bec _knew_ what was going to happen. He knew that prototyping himself would lead to an unstoppable boss, leading Dave and Rose to destroy the source of his power. He also knew that they would fail, and create the source of his own power, allowing him to exist at all.
TL;DR trivial act 3-4 stuff comes together to form a beautiful act five

In star fox assault ALL the characters have real legs! And I also like how you never mentioned that game either.
Aawww that game was cool :(
+Zesto Star Fox Assault takes place after the original and n64 versions.
Chris Hayes It was a change in canon. They originally had the prosthetic legs, but somewhere along the way everyone forgot why, ha, so when third party teams picked up the franchise, they just turned them into metal boots to make things easier.
Chris Hayes I Completely agree he only had 3 things as evidence that were all 10 years old take a good look at the fox amiibo he has legs and BTW MatPat his name is Fox Mcloud not "Star Fox"
Chris Hayes We dont speak of that game.
I used to be an adventurer like you, til I took an arrow to the knee and had to get an amputate my legs
Goat Simulator theory next.
tsgambetty Yeah. Why does its head spin like mad when you touch a wall? I'd like that explained.
tsgambetty I would like MatPat to explain why that shitty game is so popular.
Ethan Puckett ikr the game is only fun for about 5 mins then it gets boring. the glitches/bugs are intentional
Default Can a goat really do that?
But...do g-forces work in space?
TheLifeMeaningof Well they also fly on diffrent planets and those planets could have a greater gravity then where ever they come from
They do, after all acceleration is still a thing in space. Sure there might not be gravity, but acceleration doesn't need that or air, just an outside force applied to the object.
TheLifeMeaningof Yes. G forces are a result of chances in velocity (acceleration), not gravity itself. Gravity is an acceleration (or a force), and as such, the unit of G-force is in relation to what g-forces Earth exerts on us at the planets surface, which we arbitrarily called one G.
TheLifeMeaningof Why wouldn't they? I suppose you are assuming you need gravity present. I'll rephrase it so you can picture it. If you are in car and the car accelerates fast, you get pushed back in your seat. this has nothing to do with gravity, but is an example of the Gx force. In space, if your space ship accelerated rapidly, you would experience the same thing. this has to do with inertia, but not really the point, other than gravity is necessary for G-forces. G-forces are just forces measured relative to gravity.
Nick Trotsky The G-Diffuser negates all gravity, whether in space or planetside.
You should do a game theory on Phoenix Wright sometime.
HOLD IT! What would it be about?
TitoKeytarHero OBJECTION! Maybe...uh... *(come on Phoenix, think)*... Damnit, the games have too great of logic.
TAKE THAT! It should probably be a theory on Pheonix's or the real details on Maya's mother.
Ethan Tran What do you mean real details on Maya's mother?
It should be on what the legal system would be like if we had one like Ace Attorney
"Alright, I waited til we were alone to ask this. That's me being nice. Can I (snnrk), can I see your legs?"
"You're...you're serious."
"Well you know, people talk, word gets around, I'm genuinely curious."
"Can't you just take my word for it that I don't have robotic legs?"
"I'd really like to, but (heh), can't you do it for me just this once? I gotta know for sure."
...
Me don'ts has metal legs.
So.
Fox, Falco, Slippy and Peppy don't have legs ?
Guess Mettaton wouldn't dance with them.
WOW.
I just busted out laughing.
but undertale is cancer?
+ExplosionsOfIron No it's not.
Starlight Dash the game isnt, but it just makes me cringe when people reference it
YEP.
METTATON WOULD HATE THEM.
Finally a game theory that is about a real game. Not FNAF or puppet gamers.
Red Key FNAF is a real game. Just because you don't like it does not mean its not a game.
yosheth lol if Fnaf is a realgame dose the order 1886 fit in to the name game too?
Think again fnaf 4 is coming.
More fnaf theories incoming :(
Red Key It's fine if you don't like FNAF but it's still a series of real games.
Red Key Thank the Lord
I hate to be that guy...I love your videos
but his name is Fox McCloud. . .starfox is the name of his team
Skorksis Avro
*Star Fox is the team name not starfox
Get
It
Right
Yeah starfox is a marvel comic super hero
The Star Fox team has no legs! All of them!
Did aerosmith from that band aerosmith tell you that? Haha
Yea but after this video I'm going to go play as that dude Zelda.
Fox McCloud: “See? They’re 100% stock.”
Wolf O’Donnell: “Yeah, I suppose so.”
*door opens and random guy walks in on them*
Um, the argument at 10:30 makes sense and all, until you realize that if there is no legs, the blood can't pool up so far away from the heart, and while blood pressure at default may stay the same, the blood pressure increase from G-forces is much closer to the heart without legs than with.
The rest of it makes sense though.
CreeperOnYourHouse My thought precisely!
CreeperOnYourHouse I don't think you understood the video. G-forces do not actually change your blood pressure. What the video says is that as g-forces go up, your body's blood pressure must go up to accommodate the extra force, or else blood will not be able to circulate. The reason why a g-suit works is because the balloons in the suit can increase their size and apply more pressure to the body, raising the overall blood pressure in the body. Metal legs do not have this benefit. They cut out the veins and arteries to shorten the distance, but since the body is producing less blood to compensate, your overall blood pressure is unaffected.
So in short, unless the metal legs are hooked up to the circulatory system and have the capability to alter blood pressure as needed, they are literally no different than having normal, biological legs without a g-suit. The distance is irrelevant, it's all about pressure. Having a shorter distance just would mean that the blood would pool at the thighs and knees instead of the calves and feet without a change in BP.
Wolf Guard His argument was that it doesn't matter because the heart stays the same distance from the head.
Also, arteries can act like balloons, blood can pool up in them. If they're pooled closer, more of the blood stays closer to the heart, which does matter when you realize that the pressure buildup in the arteries can have the effect of having enough pressure to keep some blood up. The pressure is the way that G-suits work: The legs expand from the blood, so the suits expand to compress the arteries, making them smaller and have less room for blood, and forcing more blood to stay in the body. Eliminate the feet factor, and those arteries expanding are much closer and any back pressure from the blood is more effective.
If you keep the feet, the blood pools up in the feet, and the back pressure is mostly effective in the legs, keeping little for the torso.
Hey! Nobody better reply nasty things to that, because that is good!!! Construction is key... Meh... Anyway, yeah, I expected there to be a lot of haters here. :/ the internet is weird. (Unique)
Creation Realm Wait, hold on while I disect what you're saying.
You're insulting me to try to compensate for the surprisingly small amount of hate on my comment as a joke, yes?
Havent you thought that they might just be boots.
Mike Schmidt IMPOSSIBLE!!!! WHY WOULD YOU EVEN THINK THIS???
Because erm they don't look like bionic legs
Mike Schmidt The legs look as if they overlap the pants, so it could just be boots.
I was being sarcastic before but no the metal part doesn't really overlap the pants and the ankle joint is too small to be flesh and bone so it's definitely automail.
i know
Mat got to ride in a fighter jet? That is so fucking cool...he's so young yet so accomplished. Makes me feel like a total loser by comparison. :p
It wasn't a fighter jet it was. A stunt plane I think
Good.
You guys sound like you like riding on things :)

HAHAHAHAHAHA, fezzes keep you out of court, Oscar still ended in one
Until

I though the title was why Starfox has no legos

Cesar Hernandez I was excited from the teaser b coz of clooney and brad bird but after this trailer it's surely a let down.
They lost that 2x4 block for the engine. oh shit
Your comment made my day xD

Everyone chant with me, FNAF IS GONE, FNAF IS GONE!
Harry Mcleod Brace Yourself, FNAF 4 beggars are comming
SKsuprakirby Our chanting can stop them! We can do it!
nah you can stop the fandom we got until halloween for FNAF4 😈 us fans hear to stay lmao
svdd sosa Lord help us :(
Harry Mcleod FNAF is here while Silent Hill franchise is nothing more then a corpse.
It was revealed that he does have legs
Yes me does :P
Well you are incredibly gay. Also, this was made in 2015 and Matpat plays literally every single game that's related to his topic. If fox mcloud had real legs, mat pat would know.
More like 'WHERE YOU LEGS AT WHERE YOU LEGS AT
OHH
OH MAH GAWD
NO-MO LEGGO
OOOH
GET YOUR LEGS GONE'
+KritzkriegKane Was that a bassment jaxx reference or a rap song reference?
Jake Nash Nope

+KritzkriegKane I laughed at this more than expected.
Sir Krigeon i didn't get it
`YOU DONT NEED LEGS!´ -Jackaboooooi 2015-17
I don't know they say in the comics their just boots they showed the character take them off and show their bare feet
More likely metal boots
thats exactly what i thought
It has been confirmed by the creators.
*they're
*they're
ok, so the Star Fox team amputated their legs to allow them to walk on two legs and use their other limbs as hands.
then, what about Krystal? clearly no robo-legs in Stairfax Temperatures, and she is a master of hand-to-hand and melee weapon combat. or General Pepper? Star Wolf? any of the other members of Star Fox added in SF Command? Andross, to an extent? General Scales?
also, I think Death Battle stated that Star Fox's Arwings had built-in G Diffusers, which could mean they help lessen the G Forces on the pilots.
One like for JonTron Reference.
+TheLegend1800 Alright some things to tackle here. Although i'd argue that Death Battle is not a valid source of information, they are correct in that the Arwing ships are equipped with G-diffusers which prevents the problem of blood rushing into your legs and feet, among other problems. However this concept wasn't introduced until Star Fox 64. The Star Fox team has had their robotic legs since Star Fox on the SNES (if you look at promotional art). And the reason why Krystal and Fox and the other characters in Star Fox Adventures don't have robotic legs is because it's a different developer that made it. Rare ware made the Adventure title, and their design features Fox and the other characters with normal organic legs. I can't explain the Star Wolf team or General Pepper because i've never seen them with their legs in sight. (Well Pepper looks like he has normal organic legs but i'm not sure).
* Cuts off Falco, a bird's leg *
Matpat: Maybe you can get *chicken wings*
also if you sit in an airplane for too long your legs will fall asleep
i do not think it would be possible for fox McCloud to jump off of his plane and run away after flying so long
Yeah but if you sit on the bog for too long your legs fall asleep and when you try to get up you break your arm I mean nothing...
link you mean to tell me that they invented near-infinite amounts of power to power spaceships, but not special chairs that absorb and properly cushion your body?
Androvsky budget cuts
Aren't they also in space a lot? You need gravity for your legs to fall asleep.
Catherine Rathbone i just said that -.-

PhantomSpectre He's not. He's predicting what ll most likely happen.
I hope he doesn't. He keeps on saying that the only impossible candidate to be the killer (phone guy) IS the killer for some reason.
Shadow Quill It was me all along lol.
There is one huge hole in your entire theory...
If the creators and writers couldn't even get some of the most well known flight maneuvers... they would have no clue about any of the science...
They just did it to make them look more futuristic and cool...
It's just an interesting theory man, it doesn't mean that's what the creators had in mind.
I know it is a theory but did you know my post was just a joke?
Joshua Baker Not a very clear joke.
Joshua Baker I wasn't sure how to take it, it's the Internet. They need to make a sarcasm/joking font, so people like me, who can't tell without body language and vocal intonation, can get a bit of help.
14:16 return of the star fox memes xD
Do a stanley parable theory plz
Everyone would die and MatPat's brain would explode.
The Potato King ... yes, in ONE of the video's endings. What about in all the other endings?
〈-thatguyoverthere I hope he does the broom closet ending. That one's my favorite.
Jason did the narrarator tell you to say that?
steee zaragoza Sound good!
Hey Matpat, I know you probably won't see this, but I think that your Theme would make an AWESOME ringtone!! I don't know if anyone else here thinks the same way about it, but I would certainly buy it and I know a lot of other friends of mine that would TOTALLY love to buy it too. Just a request but I love it and I think others would too.
Like or comment if you agree so we can get supporters!!!💪👍👊
Or you could just rip the video to an mp3, cut the audio track to just the intro, save it as a song, send it to your iTunes, and set it as a ringtone....that's what I did for JonTron's theme:P
😆Haha omg I would except I don't think I have the software for that. Awesome idea though!
Wow thanks!
Thanks everyone for the sources, but I don't know how to use any of these, anything else in mind?
That's just a theory.
A GAME THEORY!

collin lopez No that's what's gonna happen when FNAF 4 comes.
MatPat can't stop thinking about a particular horror game and goes, "Look what you've done to me!"
And I can't help but feel the exact same anger whenever he brings up that game in all his videos that have nothing to do with that game!
I'm surprised I haven't seen a comment about when MatPat said he screamed like a girl and calling it sexist.
Steve Stevenson
DAT WUZ SEXIST!!! AUSJKDHASDSAKJDHASJKH ASD *Spazzes on the floor with foaming mouth*
(This is a joke btw)
Steve Stevenson same..
Heh, faith much in the women?
You do realise screaming lke a girl's a good thing, right? If all men scream like a girl, it shows their shock. It wards of predators with the high frequency and it is just cool. And, you're sexist obviously, +Steve Stevenson assas you pointing that out showed that you recognized how it may link to sexist remarks, so YOU are the sexist, my buddy.
Connor Swoonscoe Apply cold water directly to burn.
wait so the guy with no legs has an unfair advantage in a race against guys with legs...
Yeah.
Wow (claps slowly) just wow. Mom! Get the axe!!
Look up Amy Mullens TED Talks.

Nope it really doesnt change anything to have the advantage you need to run in a different way
A quick counter to the whole idea that senses get amped up when you lose one of them. That is not actually true. All that happens is people practice and adapt to using their remaining senses more, and thus hone in on those sense making it look as if they have super hearing or super sight.
Actually something called plasticity in the brain normally takes place when a region isn't in use, and the same goes for people who lose a sense, their body (and brain) adapt and cover the loss creating a more heightened version of their existing senses. So albeit yes they aren't super human and do take time to *develop* it, the body actually DOES compensate.
Andre D. I've been told that this isn't true in the case of the senses. You don't suddenly become a supertaster because you can't see, for example. I recognize that plasticity might be more possible for some sense losses than others (I don't imagine a loss of taste or smell heightening the other) if it does exist.
StyxTBuferd "I've been told that this isn't true", I've been told that a rabbit hands out chocolate eggs on the day Jesus came back from the dead.
***** Its chocolate cause its the same color as the cross right?
But yeah OP's arguement is that your sense don't get better cause you have to adapt and practice and THAT is what makes it appear to be better. Correct? How do you get better at anything? By practicing and adapting.
***** What I should of said is that I was told this by multiple professors.
Love how you just drop the truth in one short sentence after spending 15 minutes of over analyzing and over thinking obscure scenarios. And then dismiss it instantly because it's too logical and boring.🙃
Long story short I never got my legs amputated. :P
I don't watch your fnaf videos. Thank you for finally doing something different. And it's Star Fox! Couldn't have picked a better topic! ^_^
Lyndan You can blame all the kiddies who think FNAF games are the best games ever. And then of course screaming in the comments for a video about them. Or you know some people could just find FNAF's story very interesting but don't have or want to take the time to figure it out (as it is kind of confusing). I don't mind the FNAF videos but after having three in a row I really don't want them even being mentioned anymore.
Lyndan I hate the games but like the videos because of how much work he puts into them.
TheLegless101 brush
Lyndan Same here man, It feels like haven't watched a game theory in forever
Agree totally.
Why is no one talking about the G-Diffuser systems, the fictional devices in the Arwings that counteracts high G forces making all of that unnecessary? Seriously. All of the whole blood pressure argument is for naught because Arwing pilots don't have to worry about G forces.
What are you talking about?
Josh Lucas The blue things on the wings are the Gravity Diffusion/G-Diffuser system. That's the part that fires laser and generates the force field that protects the pilot from enemy fire and the stresses of high speed aerobatics. (Official Nintendo Power Player's Guide) It's called the G-diffuser anti-force generator in the game’s manual. Google it.
Jerade Hensley than yeah its a moot point.
Jerade Hensley well that would actually support the point that this video comes up with that the amputated legs have nothing to do with the G forces and have to do with standing up on two legs and running faster and being able to better able to handle the foot controls while in the plane
robert gosney Yeah that's what he said.
Maybe the legs act like Chell's leg brace things, allowing Fox to bail out of his plane and land safely on the ground without use of a parachute?
Love how you added Van Halen in the beginning
So...you made this video to show off that you'd gotten to fly in stunt planes?
Do you need me to get the peanut butter and bread because you are JELLY
Andrew McCue he jelly
JELLY!
jesus fucking christ you're all so unoriginal
Lindsay Braun I jelly too
An interesting theory all over though you seem to have missed a rather interesting point when it comes to Star Fox. You mansion how evolution into our current stage caused humanity to develop feet that allowed for upright walking. Well I would assume because of convergent evolution that the anthropomorphic animals seen in the series that evolved opposable thumbs would also evolve feet that would naturally allow them to walk upright.
I'm not saying your theory is wrong, I'm just pointing out something you never addressed in the video. I don't know if there are cutscenes, comics or other articals that states otherwise in the Star Fox canon.
Wound't it be more likely that they are indeed for out of ship combat but possible also double as an advanced form of the G suit?
This is a rough theory that just came to mind while watching the episode but it's conceivable that these prosthetic regulate the flow of blood throughout their length like the original legs so the brain won't compensate for the missing appendages and lesson the pressure. However in times of need the artificial veins and arteries within he prosthetic tighten up to provide higher pressure within the rest of the system to combat the G effects
They are confirmed to be robo legs
Plus in the game you really fast to the warp points on Meteo, but the true question is How fast is the Arwing?
I don't know why, but I felt really uneasy watching this video...
Ted Fausak Same here :/
Ted Fausak I k r
furries? even known I am one.
Nytrofoxx ! Wow you are now a weirdo
***** actually no. You are believing a stereotypical concept. And people like you are trying to complain with an insignificant amount of knowledge of the topic. Actually only about 2% of us are into any amount of zoophilia.
“Holy hamburgers”
I’m sorry, what?
wha.
Idk if Metteaton would be horrified or slightly turned on .___.
Oooooooor they are just metallic boots and they look different throughout the years and evolved to actually look like boots -shrugs- it's just a though -_- I mean to be honest I believe they are just boots just back then we didn't have the high text we have now so it would look tacky or like what he/you said "metal legs" so my thought is they are just metallic boots
NO,he was amputated.
14:04 :)
what about falco?
Why a bird like falco uses boots with the form of a human feet???
Okay, Dexuz, I understand your question, but if a fox, a bird, and some other animals can speak the same language, FALCO CAN HAVE HUMAN FEET!
Hi matpat I'm from the future
Why haven't you uploaded your fnaf 69 theory yet?
Lel
Moshi Minecraft8 Why would you come to the PAST, to ask something that will happen in the FUTURE.
It's like the Internet Explorer jokes, they make no sense at all.
Moshi Minecraft8 You live in a time when there's more than 60 FNAF sequels?
Wow!! You must be from February 2016!!!
Dark Hinata OBJECTION! I come from 2022 and there IS no FNAF Fighters! I am still waiting for FNAF 302 though. Man! I still remember FNAF 246, that was an amazing game!
Hououin Kyouma Maybe he came from a future that had a FNAF fighters game and it killed the franchise. I am from the past and am curious if they have made 5 nights as Faustus yet?
Omg I misses the days game theory uses soundtracks from games that I knew. Like 7th saga or Chrono Trigger or Zelda.
People take Game Theory too seriously. To those who came from GameXplain's video to "gloat": stop. You are an embarrassment.
U know this channel is always about overanalisis
Thats why its fun
Star fox is the name of a game and a mercenary unit within the same game NOT any character in game.
Calling Fox McCloud "star fox" is akin to calling Samus metroid or calling link Zelda .
It's why I changed my cats name from fox McCloud to James McCloud, got tired of people calling him star fox
+Nick Jones Proves as much how they lack actual knowledge on this franchise before even trying to do any "theory" on it. Seriously. Both of these are bullshit.
Actually if you watch the video again you will see he calls him fox mccloud
He does at some point call him fox mccloud but he repeatedly calls him starfox through out the video
That's because he's talking about the group just because he showing just mccloud doesn't mean he's only talk about him. I mean he's just looking at a foot. This guy knows his Nintendo games he not dumb enough to get stardox and mccloud confused
What about taking into consideration that the metal legs are not actually just steel legs but actually robotic, as they would need to be anyway to preform any walking motion anyway. The legs could be a cybernetic enhancement.
In simple terms: the legs could also act as 2 separate but synchronized hearts. pumping blood back up to the rest of the body when under extreme G force, just like the Jet fighters pants.
Matpat, I know just the "blood sloshing" feeling. As you can tell, i've been on the "Steel Eel" at Seaworld.
so, taking this theory into account, is that why every sonic character where's shoes. pretty much every sonic character is 4 legged and that's why sonic runs stable?
Star fox is his TEAM, not his name.
A Fox in Space
Oh hey its Sir Keaton! I recognise you from Hutt's channel!
Star fox the team has no legs.
Fox McCloud is his Name. And he is in space... So Star Fox.
i just wanted to make a joke like the cool kids ok
I have theory that you have not mentioned, that these pilots have their legs amputated to prevent, or at least reduce, the effect of Spaceflight Osteopenia.
During long duration space flights, excessive bone loss and the associated increase in serum calcium ion levels will interfere with the execution of mission tasks and result in irreversible skeletal damage, due to less gravity acting on the body.
Many astronauts who go on long term space missions suffer with walking when they arrive back on Earth. Maybe the metal legs help them to combat this.
But hey, that's just a theory...
In ww2 there was a pilot that had both legs amputated, he used this to his advantage because now he could handle more G-force without blacking out and could do more advanced maneuvers
9:40 would it help if he was given a blood transfusion to replace the blood he lost?
just tell me now
*****
well, actually the point was that the robot legs would shorten the blood supply and the ciculatory system would adapt, but what i said was if he was just given a transfusion for the blood he lost, he would be fine, just shorter.
+Diamond Warrior It would unnaturally increase his blood pressure, leading to pretty serious health issues lol.
Really? I though he'd have the same blood pressure, he'd just be shorter
Diamond Warrior I'm talking about transfusing blood to someone who doesn't need it, just so he could get better blood circulation under Gz force
FYI in case you were not talking about that, note that he was talking about total blood volume in fox's body vs his total blood volume vs fox's legless body. Am I confusing?
13:10 fezzes, fezzes everywhere
Ha 😊
Fezzes are cool
Wait... That plane I once saw doing flipps was YOU???!!!??1
Er ma gerd
surrrrrrreeeeee
dun dun dunnnnn
omg. did u really see one
Wait WHAT!!!!
Also the legs could be a plugin interface allowing fox to go from tank to aerotech to anything and the machines onboard AI will automatically know what fox wants allowing him to pilot anything with great skill.
