The shoe store woman might be the closest thing to normal looking that David has ever drawn.
bartender.
@@CrispyChikenSammich Him too.
would fukk
Huge emphasis on "closest thing". That lady is still pretty ugly.
DUDE I was literally thinking that
I like how everyone in this one is so considerate and respectful to this guy despite him rambling like a maniac and waving around his plastic hand
It feels like this guy is just traumatized or is schizophrenic, so all the people simply have to deal with that, understanding that he can't do otherwise
Well, yeah... They're English.
@@meursault7030 believe me bruv, English blokes are anything BUT considerate and respectful
That’s exactly what I said he’s genuinely a lunatic that’s like the world n my own family is against me n everyone’s just super courteous while he’s following strangers home n talkin to his plastic hand it’s just u and me plastic hand! Why is he a father XD but then the ending seriously messes with u that maybe he wasn’t insane and this plastic hand was sentient so maybe it was sleepin with his wife u never know I love the way david makes psycho paths cuz they really seem like the typa people who are the real monsters on this earth
It's a bit like when your buddy says he wants to be called Emily now, or that he's given his life to Jesus and just wants to share his happiness with you
i was NOT expecting that little girls voice to be a grown mans deep voice, i always love when theres a slight bit of humor in these
so true
@@orcaroblox_yt it's david firth. This guy is totally unpredictable
@@fvckingtired7269fr
Me too
“How dare you.”
*he said calmly.*
calmly with his wife beater on 🤣💀
David Firth is one of the few OGs from newgrounds that still pumps out good stuff and never disappoints.
And the only one who competes with the ominous and off-putting feeling of watching his videos is MeatCanyon.
Krinkles, too
AlanTheBox is still going strong too.
Yes.
Plastic hand
@@TheAstroflight david firth is the parasite not the brain
always love the sense of dread and isolation you imbue in your work. love you David.
@Don't Read My Profile Photo shut up
Love you too David
but it's very calming in the same time
@Don't Read My Profile Photo ok I won’t
Same 🥰
I literally lost it when he started touching himself mocking the woman with the plastic hand.
after all these years i still can’t believe david firth doesn’t get the recognition he deserves
Indeed, he is playing in the same leagues as junji ito.
you need a plastic hand... He actually did some work for the BBC, but this shit is not supposed to appeal to the average normie!!! You have to be a little sick in the head to be invested in his work!!
didnt he have work in the hbomax show smiling friends?
@@Elizabeth-fo8qt and did a short or two for Charlie Brooker on Screenwipe
The soft tone of davids protagonists are always so calming but even more sinister. To the point simple phrases like "how dare you" are filled with tension of what will happen next
Ya know he is the main character but idk if I'd describe his as a "protagonist" lol
@@wyleFTW he's not really an antagonist either
@@wyleFTW he doesn't do anything bad tho
I read that right as that part played
@@wyleFTW I know it's a plastic hand but idk if I'd describe it as a synthetic appendage
Hey there chaps. (I can't believe some of you haven't subbed yet 😪😪)Thanks for stopping by and watching. It may not be good business these days but UA-cam is still my platform and I will keep releasing here. I'm already halfway through another cartoon and have another instalment from my most popular series planned, written and storyboarded. If you're still watching then I'm still making them. If you want a bunch of extra stuff like unreleased stuff, forgotten videos, full soundtracks to all my cartoons then consider subscribing to my Patreon www.patreon.com/davidfirth - it keeps this as my job. Or grab something fun from my shop. saladfingersstore.com/ I have some really cool toys and tshirts and stuff.
Hi Five Mr Firth! Always a treat.
damn, youve been my favorite animator for like 15 years. every time theres a new video, i have learned to never know what to expect. the last sock was amazing, and keeping up with your streams always inspires me. thanks for the crazy stuff youve put out the last 15 plus years, you still got some day 1 fans out here.
Any chance you’ll make another Spoilsbury Toast Boy episode?
hey man, i can’t afford to support you financially rn but i never watch your vids with adblock on if that makes up for it
Loved it! Remarkable how chilling you can wield simplicity. Brilliant stuff as always.
You don't happen to have any plans for a Spoilsbury Toastboy clock, do you? I've had them for over 15 years but my current ones are broken and I need replacements, you can't get them anymore :( .
A wholesome story about family and faith. ✝️ We need more like this on UA-cam! ❤
💀
4:33 woo :3
It’s very nostalgic seeing David going back to this style of animation. Such fond memories of early UA-cam.
Yes! Feels like I've been waiting for it forever.
Not even UA-cam lol it was Newgrounds back then
I was watching Salad Fingers as a flash animation on somewhere...
I think it’s improved since then.
These "nostalgia" comments feel so patronizing lol
The feeling that these animations give can't be explained. It's good and rewarding but at the same time it makes you think something is not right.
Yeah it’s like unsettling but also nice at the same time
Edit: you can call it uncanny
It's like watching a dream sequence unfold
Oh you think something is not right? What give it away? The guy talking with the plastic hand?
@@SirMorganD I meant as an experience, like i guess art is in the eye of the beholder. But this gives an uneasiness feel whilst still captivating. It's nothing like most horror or shock media of today.
@@someguysomeone3543 yhea, David does special stuff that's right
Thank you, plastic hand! You've brought much joy to the masses!
For me, David Firth and Cyriak were the dawn of youtube animation. So glad you're still around! Plus the animation is getting better and better....you haven't lost the jarring chill at all from your videos.
cyriak and david firth should collab
Actually choked on my drink at 2:33 i didn’t expect him to go on for so long 💀💀
SAME i was caught so off guard
Frfr 🤣🤣
Ikr lol 😂
REAL HELP
I was half expecting something violent or gory to happen at some point, but somehow I knew that you wouldn't bring it to that place, and it fits. It's almost like there's this threat that things could go off the rails any minute, and the fact that they never do is really powerful and anxiety inducing. Loved it!
YES you described the tone of the video so well, I was gonna say the exact same thing! The tension is incredible, you’re just bracing yourself for when things go horribly wrong, but it doesn’t happen. Maybe it never will, but maybe it can.
It's one thing I love about his work, he gets the vibe and horror across without resorting to gore unless absolutely necessary.
@@The_Queen_Chrysalis i wish the milkman would deliver my milk
Omg I felt the same! You described the feeling perfectly!
@@The_Queen_Chrysaliswell… that’s true for some of his work haha.
Damn, dude. That song that starts playing at 3:25 is really beautiful. I need that song by itself.
It's mad how this dude is still animating these shows, this was a huge part of my early teens... Takes me back to a different time, it's weird how cartoons like this invoke nostalgia for summers of my childhood..
Wholesome 😅
3:10 From now on, anytime something falls on the floor, I will quietly whisper "That one's for the Lord..."
Firth's impression of a woman getting finger blasted is honestly too accurate 😳
lmfaoo
It was so random lmao
I felt so too, it was scarily well acted
I was watching this when visiting my parents... Their living room, with the stereo full blast xD
Lol truth
This is the first video I've watched from David Firth other than salad fingers and this is the most scariest but calmest thing to ever exist, the art is so weird and just the characters talking in a calm voice makes everything about the video more interesting and sinister
I like how his nose is a smiley face
the guy's voice is asmr-worthy, i was legitimately getting tingles
Edit: nvm the part where he was moaning threw everything off
Seek help
@@topkek996 get a grip lmao
@@CartoDarko Seek help
@@ARG0T good comeback I'm shaking in my custom baby seal leather boots
@@CartoDarko I'll give you points for the Megamind reference, at least
Two normal hands, and one made of plastic
Flesh redundant, synthetic fantastic
Behind the appendage, you're safe from sin
Though a drop of guilt still seeps down within
Blame the fingers, blame the palm
Chin stays up, normal hands stay calm
When you're caught, the flesh gets the chain
You go away, plastic hand will remain
please tell me you made this up
holy crap batman may i please use your lyrics in a song and credit you
@@telesamgram Go for it
ai?
@@leonconnelly5303 No, just me. I mean..unless..
Let's try not to throw me into an existential crisis, please.
0:54 If you were around for the earliest videos, this was anxiety buildup. The video feels almost "normal" by comparison.
2:28 This is no longer canon to Salad Fingers, it has changed to South Park. What happened.
i have no idea man
What are you talking about
@@shitlordflytrap1078 It was never canon to Salad Fingers, but it was a joke, because now it seems more like South Park than Salad Fingers or any other David Firth creation
The voice acting is phenomenal as always. I love how everyone speaks so gently, it's calming yet off putting at the same time.
It's an aggressive... er... threatening calmness. Really puts me on edge.
Agree 👍💯
I like it how the daughter asking for dinner talks with a mans voice! is plastic hand a way this man has to absolve himself from anything bad. Or is it a dig at former prime minister Edward Heath?
@@hoppinonabronzeleg9477 yea same 💯
No idea why 2:22 made me burst out laughing with the censorship. Love this animation very cool, fun, and disturbing! Thank you David for your amazing work!
CAUSE ITS HILARIOUS
That whole bit with the voice is hilarious🤣
I'm surprised there was no censorship
What censorship?
@@aaronamour6101 "oh it feels so f**ing good"
You know, something about David's creations, they always end somewhat empty and sad, that's what makes them extremely good and it shows the emptiness of his little world, good work David!
I suspect childhood traumas are the reason this stuff feels so good.
Good show!
1:48 0_0 is no one going to mention that ?
"Um, I'd like some dinner please daddy.... daddy?...... oh um, plastic hand?" "Thank you".
The fact I get a slow smirk on my face and giddy when starting a new David Firth animation just shows me how much I love your work.
Me too ❤️
The guy at 1:43 gave a Jim from the office stare lmao
Feels Weird That This Was 6 Months Ago And Not 11 Years Ago. It’s amazing how consistent David is with his style throughout the years (decades).
It's nuts how many different artstyles David Firth can pull off.
Ikr😍
It's comforting to see I'm not the only one who wears pajamas to the bowling alley.
2:53 sh sh sh shake it baby
You played Shrimp in smiling friends you did great mate. He's one of my favorite characters in the show
The legend has returned
his old animations had a certain vibe of armature and home brewed horror but now it's pure, pulsating, physiological, raw, and unflinching horror and I love it so much! keep up the great horror david!
I for one loved his experimental shit from like twenty years ago
@@Nova-vk5qb i did too i grew up with this stuff
I couldn't agree more ❤️💯
Why did I genuinely want plastic hand to recognize all the hard work he’s been putting in?
I know David Firth for 15 years and he still making good videos. Keep it up David.👍👍
2:15 MAN that was hard to watch. I cringed so bad
We love you David ❤ keep up the with your animations!
ofc, david is super talented lol
we ?
i like how his nose is just a smiley face
I like even his hallucination of the plastic hand talking is like “Stop trying to appease me, nothing is going to happen between us.”
There's a mesmeric quality to all of your works that's taken me two decades to fully appreciate. The strange, sinister, yet all too human surroundscape has a way of distorting time. This video is only five minutes long, yet I feel like I've taken in an hour of heavy content. Kudos David, and I'm so glad to see you still making animation.
Yes it does have a memersic quality, I concur
Every time I think I'm used to David Firth's humor I'm immediately proven wrong and creeped out all over again.
Good times, never disappoints
After binge watching content, him confronting his wife had me crying laughing.
Thank you for still creating content, David Firth. I've been following since Salad Fingers was first on UA-cam and just love and appreciate your style of storytelling, it still excites me to see new uploads from you all these many years later!! I love your work and will keep watching and hoping it's enough to keep it going as your job, I can't thank you enough for providing content for my weird self to enjoy in a silly-dark way most things just don't touch 😊
In a sense, a high-five for Plastic Hand is basically like getting slapped in the face 😂
Have you ever been slapped in the face? It's a true delight.
Love the daughter's voice, another slapper from a banging animator! Keep being you!
She gave the cutest kiss 😂 the impression imitating his wife with the hand sounded so real 😂😂😂
I gotta be honest this one feels like another classic. This one gave me a similar feeling that I got as a teenager watching David Firth videos. And I feel like this is a more mature, easier to digest version of some of the characters in his earlier works.
Really enjoy this one.
Absolutely beautiful as usual. Oddly liminal, extremely ambient. Always crude and absurd. I love this, I love you, I love plastic hand.
If at all you make more Sock episodes, I am 1000000000% ready for more bizarre dream animations.
Where is the sock episodes ?
@@Steve-si8hx they're on his channel too, check it all out.
Your art form is so odd but it just reels me in and I can't stop, the scene where he was moaning was very uncomfortable but the rest of the animation made up for it. Good work as always!
It made you squirm, like a little scared baby. Squirm, little scared baby
I'm guessing you just started watching David Firth's stuff? He goes beyond cringe if you've ever seen his content on newgrounds.
Uncomfortable? Really? I found it a little irritating... ok. Quite irritating, at least he was quick.
Ok now that again sounded bad i guess haha
It's called ART guys hello!
@@classica1fungus yeah, never said any opposite. We were merely making an observation regarding pleasure moaning bit (of this piece of art).
Hey just got a nice title for a tune of mine: piece o' fart
Love seeing your content pop up after all these years. My brother got me into your work (Think he shared the Spoons video with me) 10/15 years ago now.
Also introduced me to Boards of Canada through your work. My brother unfortunately passed away in 2021, but its nice to be reminded of something we both enjoyed ❤❤
I feel we need a part 2 on this...Stewart can't possible be done yet.
The legend returns to drop another gem :)
@Don't Read My Profile Photo Alright.
🤜🤛
Agreed 💯❤️
Thank you for making me more artisticly inclined by all of your amazing work across all media! I really appreciate all the memories over the years, never stop bringing joy an creative bizarreness into our lives!
Some classic Firth right here. Big ups to the man who got me into Aphex Twin and Boards of Canada 17 years ago.
Keep going mate, with those tight little crumpet lips.
This has great potential for a series. Amazing job, David :) This was a pleasure to watch and listen to. Always love the style, the weird situations (always reminds me a bit of David Lynch's movies) and the soundscapes.
Your art is distressing like no other. Nice work as always.
Angst in its purest form.
Yep you gotta love him ❤️
Salad Fingers: Finally a worthy opponent. Our battle will be legendary.
Whatayatalkinabout?
Cheers man, your work is inspiring!
I always enjoy these videos because they make you think, and I just enjoy the artwork and how it goes from a normal situation to something random
David Firth is one of the few people that can make me creeped out and make me laugh in the same video
Became a Patreon, keep up the good work sir
Same here 🥰
"I'd like some dinner please daddy" made me spill my beer
It’s ok. That one’s for the lord.
@@TheOnlyValken lol yeah, I hadn't saw that far when I typed it honest
I have been pleasuring my self with contents of this film. Thank You David.
"Sh-sh... sh-sh-shake it, baby...
After a rough day wrestling with my own mind, having this appear in my feed made my day immediately.
I try to make my channel soothing and odd but I’m still not the star that is David!
Seeing a completely new one-off in Firth's classic style really brought me back to the mid-2000's.
Always great to see you still making videos, keep up the great work
I can never remember my nightmares, so I'm glad David Firth somehow has access to them and can turn them into animations.
I think we're all ecstatic to see more of this little man and his plastic hand. Hope for more!
He is way creepier than salladsfingers. I feel he can be out there for real.
@@mr.vargas5648 Maybe we will find him in the NYC subway. I've never been to the London subway, myself, but I assume it's also a complex of alienated security staff and maniacs shitting in the shadows.
@@theotherther1 And dudes on the subway asking for dollars.
its always lovely to get a notification and see that you upload, its like a feeling of accomplishment.
These animations are quite disturbing but for some reason they are like ASMR for me.
david firth’s videos have the most random plot but still manage to be really emtertaining
His son at 3:50 looks an awful lot like the "Let the Suffering Begin" meme, character. I wonder if inspiration was drawn from that. Another classic as always, David.
Classic David Firth, i love this
I adore how your videos make me feel. A feeling of peaceful dread almost
You've been my All time favorite creator on here, from childhood to now, love your work mate
Wow that was creepily amazing David. One of the last OG UA-camrs still making new content to this day. Don’t let UA-cam and their broken system and algorithms ruin your career. We must protect David Firth at all costs. Other than that bravo David and keep up the great work.
I hope you've joined his patreon and bought something from his merch store. That's the only thing that can help him financially to make his animations. If you have, good on you. Otherwise you're just commenting to get attention.
@@chadwickerman Commenting is engagement. Any kind of engagement on a UA-cam video, whether it be liking or commenting, is helpful in boosting it. It’s not simply to “get attention.”
You will always have a special place in my heart for your work. Thank you so much! I will think about what plastic hand might symbolize tonight, like I did back in the day with all your other creations! :D
A new David firth video is always a celebration for me :D Glad to see more fantastic work from you!
This gives me nostalgic vibes from your previous animations. I love you 💖
Well well well another amazing animation to bring us nightmares. :)
i want to see more of this man.
its giving me a quite similar essence of Salad Fingers: i can tell the tremendous affection you have towards that character of yours.
its always comforting and pleasant to see a cartoon of yours,David.
so glad to see that david is still making videos of such high quality and ones that stick true to his infamous style
I can't tell if I find this disturbing or hilarious and I love it
David's animations only get better and better, and this one felt special to me for some reason. Thank you David
Even the clown shoe on the right at 0:39 terrified me!
Wow. Had a twinge of devvo nostalgia and wondered what you were up to these days. I really enjoyed this. ASMR Macabre. Love it.
I've been watching your stuff for almost 20 years. Thank you.
This man, is like, the calmest cartoon character ever.
Maybe on the outside but not on the inside.
I’m fighting mononucleosis rn and have been for the better part of 3 weeks at this point and have been feverish every single day without fail and this came out at the perfect time to accompany the feverish dreams that have followed each night since I got sick. This is actually helping me cope with it better ironically enough it’s like taking the beast head on and it’s working so thank you Mr. Firth!
Can't believe this is already a year old, feels like I just saw it come out yesterday
One of your best animations ever
