He is probably suffering from severe PTSD from being in the war or in a field hospital. If he is in the hospital that would explain the disfigured people and the strange dreams. But the PTSD would explain the baron wasteland that the story is set in.
My aunt gave me this to watch when I was having a panic attack, and I went dead quiet and just enjoyed the series. My aunt and I are horror fans, so we just watched it together and then talked about it. I think it was in 2010 when I saw it.
Kinda late, but a theory: Salad Fingers could’ve gone to the Great War, and somewhere around the timeline when he was in the war, he could’ve gotten shell shock. Look it up, it can mess you in the head pretty bad, and I think it’s likely that Salad fingers is in a form of shell shock or PTSD.
To add to this, I think he went to war with his brother. I think he heard the news, one way or another, that his brother died and he just didn't know how to cope. Especially considering that Salad is the older of the two. I think that's why the war never ended for him - his brother never came home.
The guy who voices salad fingers is now the voice of a character on a toddler focused show… my son was watching it and when I heard him speak my brain just melted
coming back to this video 7 years later there's no doubt in my mind there's a story behind Salad Fingers, the amount of symbolism and character development is insane
I think that salad fingers was the result of scarlet fever, 1. episode 9, salad fingers mentions his mother saying "you are going to fall to scarlet fever" This could be inferred to salad's mental state instead of his physical death. 2. Scarlett fever leads to rashes, peeling of skin around finger tips, and other skin conditions. 3. Scarlett fever occasionally leads to a condition called rheumatic fever, which is a condition that can affect the ears (which explains the radio in episode 8) the brain, l (which affects his mental state in general) and throat infections and damage, which explains his wierd voice. 4. back in the time of the great War, 1918, the way people dealer with sick people was to crowd them into areas with people with the same disease. this explains salad's friends in the end of the series. 5. relating to my last point, most of the time when something new to salad comes around, it's in white. this could refer to hospitals being mostly white in his time period. like so matpat can see :-) @filmtheory @gametheory
Professortroll Trollology that's a good theory. I don't think imma watch it tho lol I'm to big a chicken. I'll watch The Grudge JUST FINE but Salad Fingers???? No thanks!!
Honestly, this looks like the story of a soldier with mental illness, trapped in his own mind cause of some tragic event in the war, this hits different if you think of it like that
These videos are the only way I can watch anything horrifying. If I ever want to watch anything disturbing, I just rewatch horror theories🤷 Happy Halloween-ish
This is without a doubt one of the best UA-cam animations ever been created, I discovered it through a friend in middle school and even if I wasn't able to understand almost anything in that time since I still didn't learn English I enjoyed it and pushed me to learn this language just to be able to understand the plot, today I'm C1 in English and I still have room to improve but this little show was the fuel of my willingness to learn English in the first place, who knows? Maybe I wouldn't even bothered to learn a new language if it wasn't for this show and that's why Salad Fingers has its little special place in my heart.
I loved it the first time I saw it, my older sister thought she was going to get a scare out of me... she forgot about my uncanny ability to mimic voices. Heheh "hello there young children, I am here to inquire about your spoons!"
Alabama theory: Salad fingers might have had a sister. In episode 4 of the salad fingers series there’s a bug that he calls “litter sister”. The conversation just gets more weird and unsettling from there because he compliments the bug’s body. Saying he wants to give it a nice “stroke”. He accidentally squishes the bug and he says her body is “all gooey and flat”. And she needs a good wash. And he shan’t “play” with her again. It’s a bit of a stretch because there’s no other evidence of this really, I just thought it was a weird conversation to be had with a rolly polly-

I don’t think he went to war, rather his war was at home trapped alone with his mother who possibly killed his brother, while his father was away fighting at one of the frontlines in Europe or Africa .In the UK we are taught French in school , he talks about sailors being on leave as though he is also at home ( near both London and the south coast towns of Brighton and Portsmouth ) I think part of his hang up was that he was either too young or not psychologically fit enough to enlist - this would have been a matter of shame and a source of further persecution from his mother. I think he was possibly a child during the Great War though - as was my Nan, the generation whose fathers and brothers were all consumed by that war , were quite traumatised anyway- let alone being at the mercy of an abusive mother- like salad. It’s been a long time since I watched it- my own kids showed me snippets and I couldn’t resist carrying on watching when they were at school. Thanks for reminding me - I’ve still got a little picture one of my kids drew of salad fingers talking about his love of rusty spoons . X

Well.. Most of the stuff that's being made nowadays is "wtf is going on and why's this dude eating somebody else's pubes" more or less.. so, "Fingers" here isn't that much of a shocking content. I remember watching "Salad Fingers" as a flash animation on some weird website, before youtube was a thing in my country, it blew my mind back in 2004..
I watched all of the episodes and came to a theory that he lives in a post apocalyptic world after a war, a soldier that goes crazy because he was alone. all of his friends and family are gone and wasn't able to cope up with it.
Caleb Lee I watched it and I’m fine, you should be fine if you watch it. But then again, I’m interested in anything scary cause and can sleep fine after anything :p soooo if you can’t take gross stuff then maybe don’t watch it?
When I was like 18 I ended up meeting up with this dude I met online who I really shouldn't have. He lived with only one neighbor who ignored him, by the ocean with torn down buildings, his house had 3 rooms but his bed was in the living room, it smelled like sweat, weed, alcohol, and something I can't describe. I stood by the door the whole time and he made me watch these videos while laughing. Dude was unhinged and I made an excuse to leave as soon as I could and basically ran to my car.
The f*cked up thing is that I discovered Salad Fingers when I was a kindergartener, and I actually enjoyed the videos and continued watching them. To this day, I still don't know how I thought it was entertaining.
For every saying Salad fingers isn’t scary: Yes, I personally didn’t find it scary but that doesn’t mean it isn’t scary It’s just not scary to me, please be mindful that tons of other people ARE actually scared by stuff like this.
Yeah like dhmis I can’t watch puppets that well especially when in physiological horror I want to watch it but it unease’s me but salad fingers doesn’t scare me it all depends on the person 😊
Yeah, not scary, I'm not scared easily, but it's like one of the images from the reddit 50/50 challenge(but it's the bade gorey ones). So more disturbing.....ugh
It's just depressing with level 1000000. Most importantly the background music, it sounds like I am being teleported to a realistic depression of loneliness and nothingness.

I dont even have to look to know everyone in the comments is saying "Um actually its not scary I watched it when I was six months old and din't flinch" ☝🤓
I honestly love things like this. Scary at first glance, but end up being one of the most best of stories. It honestly makes you think what goes through someone's mind when they create this. In a understanding tone.
I found salad fingers when I was 8 years old. I liked strange things, and I thought it wouldn’t be so scary since the animation was bad. I saw a few episodes. I was wrong... salad fingers gave me nightmares. (My poor 8 year old mind Q-Q)
I saw it at 8 or 9, and oddly enough it never really bothered me as a kid. Probably because my older brother showed me a lot of weird internet shit besides just salad fingers. I was desensitized pretty early.
“We know that he lives in the UK” As a British person, Salad Finger’s voice was an immediate giveaway. It’s an unnerving impression of that old lady at Tesco’s who holds up the queue at the checkout whilst looking for her glasses. Creepy stuff.
Person: How tough are ya? Me: I'll have you know that I've watched every single of Salad Fingers. Person: ... Me: and I only cried for ten hours. Person: Jesus Christ..
The fact that David Firth felt the need to call out this video specifically makes me wonder if it hit a lil too close to home. Especially since in the same thread he says that it should mean whatever it means to the individual...
hey matpat! I've always wanted to know if you could make a film theory about how much spongebob makes. know this is kind of silly and irrelevant but I've always wanted to know. hopefully you can make this happen.
salad fingers didn't end, the creator, david firth himself said, that new episodes will come. but since david works on other projects at the moment, it will take some time.
Its like salad fingers is stuck in a weird track of innocent insanity. Its so etching that sucks in the viewer and makes them want to watch more despite the gore.
Salad Fingers isn't over.....
David Firth I was very curious of what you had to say after this video.
How does a series like salad fingers conclude, anyway?

He is probably suffering from severe PTSD from being in the war or in a field hospital. If he is in the hospital that would explain the disfigured people and the strange dreams. But the PTSD would explain the baron wasteland that the story is set in.

Caleb Lee if you wanna be traumatized

*Me sees video on salad videos
Brain:
Don’t do it
Don’t do it
Don’t do it
Don’t do it
*Me clicks video
Brain: Gawdamit
Yes, I am truly horrified by salad videos.
Yeah
Well if you press then it means that your mind wanted it
That's exactly what happened to me xD
ikr
When I was like 18 I ended up meeting up with this dude I met online who I really shouldn't have. He lived with only one neighbor who ignored him, by the ocean with torn down buildings, his house had 3 rooms but his bed was in the living room, it smelled like sweat, weed, alcohol, and something I can't describe. I stood by the door the whole time and he made me watch these videos while laughing. Dude was unhinged and I made an excuse to leave as soon as I could and basically ran to my car.
Good Call.
It really fucked me up when he said "Cowdenbeath." THAT'S LITERALLY ABOUT A MILE AWAY FROM MY CURRENT HOME.
f u r r y
Fuck you am I not a furry I'm a Anthro.
Same thing, f u r r y
What the fuck did I do. I comment on one fucking thing and suddenly the whole fucking world judges me. FOR NOT EVEN THE TOPIC I COMMENTED ON.
Oh, you hate furries? Please tell me more about how much you love vore.
The f*cked up thing is that I discovered Salad Fingers when I was a kindergartener, and I actually enjoyed the videos and continued watching them. To this day, I still don't know how I thought it was entertaining.
Clorox Bleach Me as well.
SAME
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Jesus fucking christ
Wow.
Fun fact:
They actually called World War One “The War to End All the Wars” until World War Two came around.
The day of the doctor came to mind and I have no idea why.
Britain actually calls it "the great war"
1. no one cares
2. everybody already knows this
@@iamdarthvader998 wait, me or her?
@@c731-enfi her
The amount of lore put in 70 minutes is insane
For every saying Salad fingers isn’t scary:
Yes, I personally didn’t find it scary but that doesn’t mean it isn’t scary
It’s just not scary to me, please be mindful that tons of other people ARE
actually scared by stuff like this.
Salad fingers makes me more disturbed then scared
That’s how I feel about htf and this show and shows like salad fingers
@@Sillybat-x2r Sorry, what's htf?
Yeah like dhmis I can’t watch puppets that well especially when in physiological horror I want to watch it but it unease’s me but salad fingers doesn’t scare me it all depends on the person 😊
@@zo2silly happy tree friends
When u was younger I always wondered how my sister was so good at naming things, I think this show taught her how
,
"Soo good at naming things"
May i get an example?
@@dq38aj ok like what
@@MyNameIsHeh idk but like how? Give them human names or giving them names based off what they do?
I*
It’s not scary, it’s more just...disturbing😔
Camie The Llama yeah i used to be super scared of this but now it’s just disturbing
Yeah, not scary, I'm not scared easily, but it's like one of the images from the reddit 50/50 challenge(but it's the bade gorey ones). So more disturbing.....ugh
Yeah it's not scary especially when she gets trapped and rubs her fingers
Wow his fingers are too long
Yeah
I honestly think that Poppee The Performer, DHMIS and Salad Fingers are the most creepiest and unsettling series I've watched on UA-cam
same
When I was like 6 or 7, my older sister made me watch the whole series with her. . . I had some nighmaes
Sad
My cousin did the same
Same 😔😔😔
I'm so sorry
O gosh I'm 14 and I still frick out watching salad fingers
your channels are some of my favorite on youtube
Lol no one notice it's the real Gabbie
The Gabbie Show OMG HI!!!! I LOVE YOUR VIDS AND YOUR VINES!!!!
Oh holy shit wassup Gabbie
same
me too and sup
It's just depressing with level 1000000. Most importantly the background music, it sounds like I am being teleported to a realistic depression of loneliness and nothingness.
that's my life after my phone dies xD JK
Ah yes welcome to my mind
hey its SylviaGames2004 and mine
Do you know what the soundtrack at 9:00 is?
“Fingers actually gives- BIRTH.”
“Ready to toss some salad” wasn’t the best choice of words
True. Especially if someone takes it the wrong way.
@@KlidesCorneroftheInternet wait what does that mean?
@@gachastorys5129 best to leave you innocent.
@@KlidesCorneroftheInternet Sorry I’m a stupid kid, mind telling me? I don’t want to have to Google it.
@@iamnotcreativeenoughforana5875 I never called you stupid, you're just putting words into my mouth. You can google it if you're that desperate, but I'm not gonna tell you.
"what's actually going on here is a bit of a question"
*understatement of the century*
😂😂😂😂😂
Salad fingers wasn't that scary to me but it was disturbing
Red brick prism same
same
Red brick prism i remember watching it on NewGrounds around 6th grade and i couldnt sleep at night by my self for a couple of days but it is pretty interesting.
thumbs up
Newgrounds was were most people saw this. I was thoroughly intrigued myself. Nothing like it at the time.
I dont even have to look to know everyone in the comments is saying
"Um actually its not scary I watched it when I was six months old and din't flinch" ☝🤓
Ye fr
Honestly, salad fingers was precious and I actually felt bad for the poor guy
Triggered Dun yeeeessss
Me too. He just strikes me as childishly naive and alone and alienated by society for not understanding social norms.
Minoru Mineta there’s something called opinions. No one should EVER be told they deserve to be in a mental hospital.
Minoru Mineta well that’s rude...
@@brandy8832 You shut up. He's had horrible things happen to him, and he still struggles to move on. He deserves empathy.
I honestly love things like this.
Scary at first glance, but end up being one of the most best of stories. It honestly makes you think what goes through someone's mind when they create this. In a understanding tone.
That’s like so cute...
@@butterboi4539 what...
I found salad fingers when I was 8 years old.
I liked strange things, and I thought it wouldn’t be so scary since the animation was bad.
I saw a few episodes.
I was wrong... salad fingers gave me nightmares.
(My poor 8 year old mind Q-Q)
MatildeTheCrazyOne I'm watching this as a 10 year old this is disturbing gotta admit
I saw it at 8 or 9, and oddly enough it never really bothered me as a kid. Probably because my older brother showed me a lot of weird internet shit besides just salad fingers. I was desensitized pretty early.
A n i m e l e s s it really is...
RavenousRenegadeRon oh shoot
RavenousRenegadeRon same with me
“We know that he lives in the UK”
As a British person, Salad Finger’s voice was an immediate giveaway. It’s an unnerving impression of that old lady at Tesco’s who holds up the queue at the checkout whilst looking for her glasses. Creepy stuff.
Person: How tough are ya?
Me: I'll have you know that I've watched every single of Salad Fingers.
Person: ...
Me: and I only cried for ten hours.
Person: Jesus Christ..
I didn't cry.
I didn’t cry EXEPT ep 10 that scarred me
Katie's Gaming
Correction; the crying was from confusion and terror
I watched it and felt myself actually relating with Salad Fingers.
@@spamspamgringo261 how so? If you don't mind me asking
Honestly, Salad Fingers wasn't really even scary for me. It was more disturbing 😂
Galaxy Gamez a
Yeah. It's really disturbing and it makes my fingers hurt for some reason. *PrObaBlY cAuSe oF wHeN hE sTaBs HIS FINGERS*
Same I just get tingles in my back, which are the same feeling I get when someone is watching me. But idk its just not scary.
says the guy with a catgirl for his pfp
I'm a girl...
10:34: “US Royal Navy”
What a wacky timeline you’ve presented me with
Yeah. I think he meant british royal navy
Yeah, seeing as saladfingers is clearly British
I only know this by
“I like to feel rusty spoons
Against my salad fingers.”
Me watching this when I'm home alone and already have bad anxiety: 👁👁👍
Same
😎 cool;)
same! I'm just scrolling through the comments as to not scare myself
Bruh I have a crippling fear of him and yet I still do this to myself…actually I can’t seem to make myself press the play button..
That is basically my life
The fact that David Firth felt the need to call out this video specifically makes me wonder if it hit a lil too close to home. Especially since in the same thread he says that it should mean whatever it means to the individual...
Punjit Deeprok ikr
lol drag him
Wait, when did David call him out?
The tree calls him daddy?-
i forgot abt this comment but HOLY-
theory: this series is just an artistic representation of the artist’s kinks
@@ryderlead oh no
Oh no our trees are doomed
that must be the child
Kinky
Salad fingers was my childhood and what cause my love for scary and disturbing things
hey matpat! I've always wanted to know if you could make a film theory about how much spongebob makes. know this is kind of silly and irrelevant but I've always wanted to know. hopefully you can make this happen.
tamiaislame EVERYONE LIKE THIS COMMENT
I never knew I wanted this till now
Noisey Menn thanks
Noisey Menn he means how much the character of spongebob makes
tamiaislame minimum wage
salad fingers didn't end, the creator, david firth himself said, that new episodes will come. but since david works on other projects at the moment, it will take some time.
Really?
Yudron Micros U LYIN. tell the truth
i'm not lying, go to the salad finger episodes and look through the comments.
Look in his About section.
Yudron Micros HELL YES
Matpat: Salad fingers is the scariest thing on UA-cam
Petscop: let me hold my pets in my pocket and show you true horror
What?
@@xultra_violetx you really don't know what petstop is?
R.I.P
Candace Newmaker
Yeah its a video from pyrocynical
Bendy: *Twitches unnaturally in the background with whispers emanating from him*
Am I the only one who comes here to "watch" videos they're too scared to actually look up?
no
Now that I think about it, salad fingers is asmr.
It is. Its very relaxing but simultaneously unsettling. The dissonance is just.. weird. its fuckin weird, man.
Its like salad fingers is stuck in a weird track of innocent insanity. Its so etching that sucks in the viewer and makes them want to watch more despite the gore.
Ziulyx
Yep
Falcon Pkbond450 XD yep
2:51
"so we know he lives in the uk"
10:32
"as a member of the US royal navy"
am i missing something here? did you mean to say UK?
"US Royal Navy"... has America been a monarchy all this time?!
We simply swapped out Old King George for New King George.
Conner Neu You didnt know?
God save King Obama...
King Trump?
Queen Hillary?
maybe he went and joined the U.S.
When I first watched Salad Fingers I was more confused than spooked.
lavguy44 yeah me too
lavguy44 Why is your profile pic hitler.....?😦
+SavyGirl reasons
lavguy44 XDDDDD
GAME SLASHER geez why is it whenever there is an antagonist (not really idk) someone has to mention hitler
