this is like the 3rd video i’ve seen this week about michel being alive, how did we all come to this conclusion at the same time ? did i miss a new book coming out ???
This will be the 3rd video I'll have seen that is a theory on Michael still being alive. At this point, I'll be surprised if he is revealed to not be in a future FNAF title.
When you said Michael’s an old man what do you mean by that? Michael would be immortal thanks to remnant just like Afton. Also I still kind of follow the belief that the blubber is made from the dark remnant of the missing children as they Freddie says they are all very angry and dark Remnant is connected to negative emotion. I think the same applies to Charlie too since nightmare puppet is the fearful reflection of what William has created and Fear is a negative emotion . so I believe it’s her dark remnant that’s haunting the The pizzaplx
I’ve had the theory Michael is still alive, or at least until recently. I also think about how the original concept of a Security Breach was about an old security guard helping Gregory out. And in Tales an old security guard does pop up in GGY. It makes me wonder if this is Michael.
There's a little thing that confused me, not with the theory but about Michael being an old man. He died as a young adult and I doubt a dead body would age... so he should, in theory, be a young man forever
Cool video! Some thoughts I had while watching: 0:20 From that perspective, I understand. However, it's really narratively and emotionally satisfying, and making everyone return in SB because they _technically_ can feels like a lazy cop-out that invalidates the emotional resolution of the previous games. 5:38 Do note that the version people use with punctuation is technically a creation of matpat and the other people working with him, as the original code had no punctuation at all - no commas, no periods, nothing. It's possible that "the breath" wasn't built at all. 6:52 "remnant can be completely unaffected by remnant" 10:36 He's literally dead and reanimated by remnant. He can't age.
6:51 "This tells us that there is a chance that *remnant* can be completely unaffected by *remnant*." But if remnant was affected by remnant, would effects would remnant remnant on remnant?
“Cry not” isn’t a reference to The Crying Child, I think it’s pretty normal for someone to cry when they’re being chased by a bunch of robots that want to murder them
If it's alright, I'm not really sure how the room can be the same room in the literal sense. Since the Fnaf 6 location is physically beneath the pizzaplex, that would/could mean that the room had to have been over or more realistically next to the fnaf 6 location which in the former case doesn't make any literal sense, but for the latter it still wouldn't make sense to build the pizzaplex around not just someone's home and other homes that may be there (given the size of the pizzaplex, although I recognize that they could just demolish whatever else might be there), but also it would have to be built around that one room specifically. While I can understand some people viewing this as a mute point, I feel like it wouldn't make sense for Henry to say at the end of Fnaf 6 that the position wasn't meant for Michael specifically if his home was close enough to the location to where it would be physically included in the pizzaplex. That being said, I haven't listened to the fnaf 6 speech in while so I may have just misremembered that part of it. Also, I'd like help understanding why Gregory would be a robot instead of being possessed by Glitchtrap/Malhare since we know that regular people can be possessed. I'm not against the idea, I just don't really see why that would be the case when GGY shows Gregory going to school and such. (I haven't read the books myself.)
First of all, it’s heavily hinted at that the fnaf 6 location fell into a sinkhole, which would explain them originally being on approximately the same level and then fnaf 6 ending up way lower down. Second, Henry likely chose to make fnaf 6 there because it’s the building that started it all, so it being the building to end it all would be very fitting. So Michael’s house being nearby isn’t really relevant. And also, Gregory being a robot doesn’t mean he can’t have been possessed by Glitchtrap.
@@ImpulseEvan37 To be completely clear, I'm not arguing or disagreeing with your video or what you've put forward. I'm just wanting to better understand. The fnaf 6 building falling into a sinkhole does make sense, as well as the idea of Henry using one of the original buildings because then (going off of the Fnaf 4 minigames) you'd have the Afton home nearby and potentially the SL place nearby too which I guess lines up with Enard being able to get to Mike's room in the alternative ending. I'm mainly just bothered by the logistics behind the idea that they'd build an entire Pizzaplex around the single room that we see Michael in which had to have existed before Fnaf 6. Regarding Gregory though, I completely understand that he can be both a robot and possessed, but I don't understand why he'd be a robot in the first place. Him being human would make things like him having therapy, going to school, and playing the arcade games feel much better (to me) as well as it would allow for Gregory to become possessed through the Ballon Boy arcade game if that's something you'd like. Plus, with us having situations that allude to glitchtrap/malhare not always being in complete control of people, that could work with why Gregory doesn't know why Vanessa is after him. I don't see how glitchtrap/malhare could lose control of an AI.
Micheal being alive is something I do believe but is a hard pill to swallow. It just sucks that Fnaf 6 and its ending were made completely useless by Security Breach.
>were made completely useless by Security Breach yeeah... ...no. It was made useless by FNAF 3 + SL, FNAF 6, AND UCN :V And that before VR "revived" Afton.
>Nah l think fire actually kill him and and one point he become glamrock freddy it will be better that way It... really isnt. Glamrock Freddy shares nothing similar aside from "older guardian figure". He doesnt act like Michael, if anything GREGGORY acts like Michael.

@@southerncoastproductions7587 Nah, Gregbot is tenuous at BEST, and the most likely scenario is that he's just A Kid :V One that was emotionally vulnerable, one that Afton targeted, Dominated, and used as a tool to set things up until he (somehow) broke free, and ended up in Freddy. Claiming it's the one and only answer when it's more likely to be completely wrong is INCREDIBLY stupid, you dont need to suck on Matpat :V
I forget where but there is a whiteboard in the PizzaPlex discussing ways to increase revenue and someone with a purple marker writes “increase ads” this is something you can do in FNAF 6 to make more profit.
If I’m honest when I saw the Micheal’s room of SL, it was something weird because that room didn’t have a reason to be there, but if this is true and Mike is still alive, man literally nobody died, ALL the characters that “died” are in SB. Also this could destroy the theory of Micheal been Freddy, I think that Freddy is Henry if I’m honest Good theory Evan keep up man 🙌
I don't mind the idea but personally I kinda like the idea of Michael possessing Glamrock Freddy and sharing the body with him, think of it like a circus baby scenario but on a more protector dad bear version (yes I would call Glamrock Freddy, either papa bear or Freddy Dadbear)
The theory is really cool yeah. I already saw 2 other videos talking about it. But is super unsatisfying from a lore view. Basically first Mike decide to burn alongside Henry and all the other and then after goes like "no well actually I prefer to live". At this point It would have actually made more sense for Mike to glamrock Freddy. I really hope this theory is then revealed to be false at the end. And if it's not I'm not gonna be so happy.
@@ImpulseEvan37 yes I think I understand that. It is like that kind of theory that looks very cool but very unsatisfying. Because then if Mike can't die how is it possible to put an end to his character. If fire doesn't work what is he gonna do? Drowning himself or shooting himself? Your video is great but as I said before everything feels so unsatisfying. At this pint I wouldn't be surprised if the series ended with Mike living a terrible life as dead/alive corpse. In the end your video was pretty good and had really strong evidences!
@@Andreabr77 again, I explained this. The missing kids are keeping him alive. They will be set free when William is. So when William dies, Michael will too
@@Andreabr77 >first Mike decide to burn alongside Henry and all the other Who said he did? Henry ASSUMES Michael wants to. He hasnt actually asked, he just goes "well you're here, you seem like you wanna burn with us, i had an exit and all that for you..." >It would have actually made more sense for Mike to glamrock Freddy. It kinda doesnt fit Michael's personality at all though. Infact, GREGGORY fits Michael's personality closer. >Because then if Mike can't die how is it possible to put an end to his character. If you take the theory CC was in GFreddy, who was incorporated into Ennard, when they left he stayed behind to keep his Brother alive (at his Sister's assurance), much like TOYSHNK keeps William alive. Both Aftons held back from Passing On, forced to possess their own Corpses by their Past Victims. That's at least one means to do so, and it doesnt even involve any Steel Wool or Illumix content. Michael and William CANNOT die until those spirits decide to let them die. William 100% wont because Cassidy wants to keep him alive forever, torturing him for eternity for what he did. >I wouldn't be surprised if the series ended with Mike living a terrible life as dead/alive corpse. To be fair, it IS kind of inferable that Michael MAY actually enjoy management positions... At the very least he HAS a Knack for running a location (the Canon ending is the "successful" one)? Knowing his Father will simply KEEP coming back (unless a method is found to REALLY destroy Remnant, or to convince TOYSHNK to let him the fuck go), why not stick around, POSSIBLY raise a family, move on from The Shit, and put William down if he rears his ugly head again, while doing a job he enjoys? Kind of more satisfying than you seem to think it is though :V
he actually most likely would have been healed by the remnant, eventually looking like a normal guy. i’m not sure if that would make him effectively immortal or if he would just age normally though
Part of the video I didn't like was what you claimed about Vanessa. Her being 23 and her birthday being in September was scrapped. We can't use it, it's not true anymore. So Vanessa was still born in 1997, she's just 38 in SB
I personally just think Michael is in Glamrock Freddy. But that's just my opinion. I'm not saying you're definitely wrong or anything - God knows nothing is straight forward in this franchise :D And I do think some of the things you bring up could still be important for one reason or another. I will say, I think when Steel Wool says you're already playing Security Breach by watching the cartoons they're talking about the codes in the cartoons which are required to decipher the Sister Location room wall code. Also super minor nitpick but Michael wouldn't really be an old man in Security Breach :3 His body is infused with remnant and he's also essentially a zombie, so even if he is still around in non-spirit form, I doubt that he is aging :3 (this 100% does not matter at all but I just thought I'd mention it) One last thing - I'm not completely sold on the Vanessa birthday bit. The thing is, if you take her stated age and add it to 1997, that gives you 2020, the year Special Delivery came out (and when Security Breach was meant to come out). Honestly with as incompetent as Illumix was, I sorta just think they didn't know Security Breach took place in the future (2035) and not present day and Scott didn't catch their dumb mistake here. This has been my longstanding belief on that anyways.
Remnant basically heals you and keeps you alive. If it heals you, then he’s not a zombie, and if it keeps you alive, that doesn’t mean it’s the fountain of youth. He’s still age. Also, Vanessa’s birthday literally is stated in the emails to be September 7th, which is the 7th day of the 9th month. 97. It’s not up for debate, it’s simply a fact
My main problem with using the Completionist certifict cutscene is that Henry planned to find a way out for whoever completed the mission. You kind of ignore that in this theory. The only way this is proof that Micheal survived is only if Henry also survived to know that Micheal survived and he made the video after figuring this out. We know Henry commits suicide either during or minutes after the fire meaning unless the gun jammed and Henry didn't just tried a different method or he's fireproof like everyone else is then Henry is dead. It's more likely that Henry made the video before it even launched the program. This was basically him talking from beyond the grave. So Micheal got the email, but his email still being set up after he supposedly died isn't proof that he's still alive.
He could be a "glitch" in Fazbear's system, using his email still? And if he's in Glamrock Freddy he could be synced to the internet. Also who's to say he couldn't build Gregory as Glamrock Freddy either with the same system used to fix him and the Glamrocks? Now this is way too farfetched but just thought I'd throw it in there.
@@ikaiju-eu9wn Thats a lie. You don't even have solid proof. Mike is DEAD after fnaf 6 fire. Anything that doesn't have life in it, The eyes arent lit. We don't see him anywhere. Case closed. You idiot.
there's alot I disagree with, yet alot I do agree with aswell. ESPECIALLY the files for the AR game. Apparently-- and I have to go back and double check this, but apparently it was said at one point that the scrapped content or hidden elements within the code of special delivery are relatively canon. I'm pretty sure the reason WAS because it was going to be implemented, but AR shut down recently sooooo it never came to fruition. As for Mike, I do like the theory he IS alive. It's proven William survived a fair bit from fire already, so if this is Mikes first time burning, whoes to say that he actually died. That and the evidence for the email thats in the scrapped content + the room in SB.
I have a theory that id like to see your opinion on it: I think Henry is a villain in the story too for not destroying the animatronics right away when he heard about the corpse smell from them and he couldve let those kids chill and rest way earlier and we wouldn’t need William doing that later on and we would not have fnaf 3- etc anymore
Ngl I don't really like this theory story wise, even though there is some compelling evidence. I do have to problem with everyone surviving the fnaf 6 fire. There are no implications of remnant having anything to do with the surviors. The only reason William survived is because he got turned into virus due to FE scanning his circuit board, Cassidy went along with him because they've attached themselves to William and Charlie chose to stay because William did. I don't really see that much evidence for the others staying around
Charlotte is freed in happiest day with the other kids so if shes not free, neither are they. And if they're not gone then Michael is alive because those kids are keeping Michael Alive. And Remnant doesn't get destroyed in fire meaning the kids couldn't have been freed regardless of Charlotte
>he only reason William survived is because he got turned into virus due to FE scanning his circuit board No... He's very much implied to have survived BEFORE FE ever found and salvaged him after the fire. TOYSHNK is keeping him there to torture him. "They" tried to burn them, *tried* to release them. He may be trapped in a Coma, unable to act in the moment, but he's VERY much still alive. Then VR's events happen, he slips out of TOYSHNK's fingers and gets loose in the Game, then later the Pizzaplex. Also a parallel to FNAF 3's events even...
While the idea the Vanessa is Michael’s daughter is cool, we already know Vanessa’s dad is “Bill A.” (And we know “Bill” is short for “William,” “A” could be “Afton,” so we get “William Afton” outta that, yadayadayada…)
Do you know VRs help wanted Halloween and dread bear and he is a metaphor of crying child so if dreadbear is a map of the crying child what about grim foxy what is he the metaphor Michael Afton and grim foxy is on fire so does that mean he did died in the fire and also he was an animatronic in FNAF 6 so that means in security breach he is a animatronic grimrock Freddy and there is also the 3 OG books that premature tells you that he is possessing Golden Freddy
I wrote mine a couple of months back, haven't had time to work on mine, I rewrote, and released mine a couple months later. Lmao Also I don't need the credit or shoutout
For me, the big thing that I thought about with Mike surviving is the fact that Henry says that the person working is not intended to be there, showing it's not Mike that burns down in the restaurant.
What? No. It is Mike who burns, because if it was a random person and not Mike then Henry’s line saying he thinks we want to stay and die makes no sense. Or Tutorial Unit’s line saying this company is all about making up for past mistakes. What Henry was saying was that he didn’t expect Mike to be here, but it’s a good thing he is
@ImpulseEvan_37 Well Henry said that the job posting was "not intended for you" means that he has an intended person in mind, likely Mike, and the person burning is not the same person. Because if it was Mike who was there, he wouldn't say that he wasn't the intended target
@@ImpulseEvan37 And that Henry might be lying for the point as giving the guard an out would likely give the animatronics an out if they knew something was up, especially as some of the pics in the ending depict some of the animatronics trying to get through a closing door
Or he didn’t have an ideal guard and just expected a random one, planning an out for them, but Mike found the job listing and Henry found that to be a good thing.
@@intotheindie8821 you forgot one thing though, the dialogue from the animatronics. The dialogue implies that they knew who the “brave volunteer” was. Molten Freddy said “Together again!” William says “you may not recognize me at first but it’s still me” That dialogue and so much more points towards your character actually knowing them The reason why Molten Freddy knew who you were and said “together again” was because most likely; you were Michael- Molten Freddy’s former vessel from Sister Location. Springtrap recognizes you because you were his son. You most likely ran into him before and the only other recent time you ran into him was FNAF 3 where Michael is theorized to be the protagonist.
Do you know the 3 og books and do you know that Michael that in mention that he possess Golden Freddy and those 3 books are connected to security breach and grimrock Freddy is Bass on fredbear and fredbear is Golden Freddy so that means Michael Afton in the games is Grimrock Freddy because of the books
Side note: I do think F.N.A.F.6 is the best ending, while not perfect. Also I believed Aubergine Man would’ve died in the fire, but Cassidy kept him alive to torment him with nightmare’s. So Henry’s plan almost worked had that spirit ruined it.
Imagine they just go Michael afton was actually alive but he was killed off screen along with all the other staff during the meeting. Sorry guys he will probably come back next game anyway
>but he was killed off screen along with all the other staff during the meeting. Yeah... I dont think that'd kill him if he literally got de-organ'd in SL and used as a fleshsuit.
I actually beileve this theory instead of glamike theory honestly glamrock Freddy being Michael Afton THEORY makes no sense matpat didn't even tell origins how Mike is possessing glamrock Freddy so I do beileve that glamrock Freddy is possessed by Henry or I beileve that glamrock Freddy is not possessed by no one leave like if u agree that glamrock Freddy is possessed by Henry or leave a comment if u beileve that glamrock Freddy is not possessed by no one
You are literally the only one who I’ve seen think that micheal is alive thank you!! Edit: you make excellent points can’t wait to see the videos you make in the future!
There are actually more direct indications (easter eggs?) that he's still alive in security breach. There are a few other recent videos that cover more stuff about this.

When you said Michael’s an old man what do you mean by that?
Michael would be immortal thanks to remnant just like Afton.
Also I still kind of follow the belief that the blubber is made from the dark remnant of the missing children as they Freddie says they are all very angry and dark Remnant is connected to negative emotion.
I think the same applies to Charlie too since nightmare puppet is the fearful reflection of what William has created and
Fear is a negative emotion .
so I believe it’s her dark remnant that’s haunting the The pizzaplx
I'm pretty sure Freddy is talking about his bandmates when he's going into the Afton Ending, as he always refers to them as his friends.
@@syweb2 But why are they angry?

“Cry not” isn’t a reference to The Crying Child, I think it’s pretty normal for someone to cry when they’re being chased by a bunch of robots that want to murder them

>Because then if Mike can't die how is it possible to put an end to his character.
If you take the theory CC was in GFreddy, who was incorporated into Ennard, when they left he stayed behind to keep his Brother alive (at his Sister's assurance), much like TOYSHNK keeps William alive.
Both Aftons held back from Passing On, forced to possess their own Corpses by their Past Victims.
That's at least one means to do so, and it doesnt even involve any Steel Wool or Illumix content.
Michael and William CANNOT die until those spirits decide to let them die.
William 100% wont because Cassidy wants to keep him alive forever, torturing him for eternity for what he did.
>I wouldn't be surprised if the series ended with Mike living a terrible life as dead/alive corpse.
To be fair, it IS kind of inferable that Michael MAY actually enjoy management positions... At the very least he HAS a Knack for running a location (the Canon ending is the "successful" one)?
Knowing his Father will simply KEEP coming back (unless a method is found to REALLY destroy Remnant, or to convince TOYSHNK to let him the fuck go), why not stick around, POSSIBLY raise a family, move on from The Shit, and put William down if he rears his ugly head again, while doing a job he enjoys?
Kind of more satisfying than you seem to think it is though :V
How does Michael's age matter if he is already a walking corpse?
Because he’s not
he actually most likely would have been healed by the remnant, eventually looking like a normal guy. i’m not sure if that would make him effectively immortal or if he would just age normally though
Charlie room is the logbook continued; it's more then one spirit communicating through imagery manifesting onto paper notes.
Part of the video I didn't like was what you claimed about Vanessa. Her being 23 and her birthday being in September was scrapped. We can't use it, it's not true anymore. So Vanessa was still born in 1997, she's just 38 in SB
I personally just think Michael is in Glamrock Freddy. But that's just my opinion. I'm not saying you're definitely wrong or anything - God knows nothing is straight forward in this franchise :D And I do think some of the things you bring up could still be important for one reason or another.
I will say, I think when Steel Wool says you're already playing Security Breach by watching the cartoons they're talking about the codes in the cartoons which are required to decipher the Sister Location room wall code.
Also super minor nitpick but Michael wouldn't really be an old man in Security Breach :3 His body is infused with remnant and he's also essentially a zombie, so even if he is still around in non-spirit form, I doubt that he is aging :3 (this 100% does not matter at all but I just thought I'd mention it)
One last thing - I'm not completely sold on the Vanessa birthday bit. The thing is, if you take her stated age and add it to 1997, that gives you 2020, the year Special Delivery came out (and when Security Breach was meant to come out). Honestly with as incompetent as Illumix was, I sorta just think they didn't know Security Breach took place in the future (2035) and not present day and Scott didn't catch their dumb mistake here. This has been my longstanding belief on that anyways.
Remnant basically heals you and keeps you alive. If it heals you, then he’s not a zombie, and if it keeps you alive, that doesn’t mean it’s the fountain of youth. He’s still age.
Also, Vanessa’s birthday literally is stated in the emails to be September 7th, which is the 7th day of the 9th month. 97. It’s not up for debate, it’s simply a fact
My main problem with using the Completionist certifict cutscene is that Henry planned to find a way out for whoever completed the mission. You kind of ignore that in this theory. The only way this is proof that Micheal survived is only if Henry also survived to know that Micheal survived and he made the video after figuring this out. We know Henry commits suicide either during or minutes after the fire meaning unless the gun jammed and Henry didn't just tried a different method or he's fireproof like everyone else is then Henry is dead.
It's more likely that Henry made the video before it even launched the program. This was basically him talking from beyond the grave. So Micheal got the email, but his email still being set up after he supposedly died isn't proof that he's still alive.
He could be a "glitch" in Fazbear's system, using his email still? And if he's in Glamrock Freddy he could be synced to the internet. Also who's to say he couldn't build Gregory as Glamrock Freddy either with the same system used to fix him and the Glamrocks? Now this is way too farfetched but just thought I'd throw it in there.
FINALLY, i've been fighting with people on the internet on why mike is still alive and finally i have a video to send them
Before you send them you should tell them who made theory which is impulse evan37 zantom and shycow
@@irladovelasquez975 i always tell people who made the video
Yes
@@ikaiju-eu9wn oh okay
@@ikaiju-eu9wn Thats a lie. You don't even have solid proof. Mike is DEAD after fnaf 6 fire. Anything that doesn't have life in it, The eyes arent lit. We don't see him anywhere. Case closed. You idiot.
My guy cooked, and the dish was delectable.
there's alot I disagree with, yet alot I do agree with aswell.
ESPECIALLY the files for the AR game.
Apparently-- and I have to go back and double check this, but apparently it was said at one point that the scrapped content or hidden elements within the code of special delivery are relatively canon.
I'm pretty sure the reason WAS because it was going to be implemented, but AR shut down recently sooooo it never came to fruition.
As for Mike, I do like the theory he IS alive. It's proven William survived a fair bit from fire already, so if this is Mikes first time burning, whoes to say that he actually died.
That and the evidence for the email thats in the scrapped content + the room in SB.
In the real willian return is just a ai that mimic the actions of THE HAPPY MAN
"Remnant can be completely uneffeced by remnant"
Some of the wisest words I’ve ever said 💀
I have a theory that id like to see your opinion on it: I think Henry is a villain in the story too for not destroying the animatronics right away when he heard about the corpse smell from them and he couldve let those kids chill and rest way earlier and we wouldn’t need William doing that later on and we would not have fnaf 3- etc anymore
Ngl I don't really like this theory story wise, even though there is some compelling evidence. I do have to problem with everyone surviving the fnaf 6 fire. There are no implications of remnant having anything to do with the surviors. The only reason William survived is because he got turned into virus due to FE scanning his circuit board, Cassidy went along with him because they've attached themselves to William and Charlie chose to stay because William did. I don't really see that much evidence for the others staying around
Charlotte is freed in happiest day with the other kids so if shes not free, neither are they. And if they're not gone then Michael is alive because those kids are keeping Michael Alive. And Remnant doesn't get destroyed in fire meaning the kids couldn't have been freed regardless of Charlotte
>he only reason William survived is because he got turned into virus due to FE scanning his circuit board
No... He's very much implied to have survived BEFORE FE ever found and salvaged him after the fire. TOYSHNK is keeping him there to torture him. "They" tried to burn them, *tried* to release them.
He may be trapped in a Coma, unable to act in the moment, but he's VERY much still alive.
Then VR's events happen, he slips out of TOYSHNK's fingers and gets loose in the Game, then later the Pizzaplex. Also a parallel to FNAF 3's events even...
michael afton is my favorite fnaf character
"remnant can be unaffected by remnant" 😂
6:53 you said "remnant can be completely unaffected by remnant"
I think you meant "completely unaffected by fire"?
You are correct
While the idea the Vanessa is Michael’s daughter is cool, we already know Vanessa’s dad is “Bill A.” (And we know “Bill” is short for “William,” “A” could be “Afton,” so we get “William Afton” outta that, yadayadayada…)
Do you know VRs help wanted Halloween and dread bear and he is a metaphor of crying child so if dreadbear is a map of the crying child what about grim foxy what is he the metaphor Michael Afton and grim foxy is on fire so does that mean he did died in the fire and also he was an animatronic in FNAF 6 so that means in security breach he is a animatronic grimrock Freddy and there is also the 3 OG books that premature tells you that he is possessing Golden Freddy
Impulse where is the credit/shoutout to Zantorm who originally discovered all of this in his theory?
I wrote this entire video before his came out
I wrote mine a couple of months back, haven't had time to work on mine, I rewrote, and released mine a couple months later. Lmao
Also I don't need the credit or shoutout
For me, the big thing that I thought about with Mike surviving is the fact that Henry says that the person working is not intended to be there, showing it's not Mike that burns down in the restaurant.
What? No. It is Mike who burns, because if it was a random person and not Mike then Henry’s line saying he thinks we want to stay and die makes no sense. Or Tutorial Unit’s line saying this company is all about making up for past mistakes. What Henry was saying was that he didn’t expect Mike to be here, but it’s a good thing he is
@ImpulseEvan_37 Well Henry said that the job posting was "not intended for you" means that he has an intended person in mind, likely Mike, and the person burning is not the same person. Because if it was Mike who was there, he wouldn't say that he wasn't the intended target
@@ImpulseEvan37 And that Henry might be lying for the point as giving the guard an out would likely give the animatronics an out if they knew something was up, especially as some of the pics in the ending depict some of the animatronics trying to get through a closing door
Or he didn’t have an ideal guard and just expected a random one, planning an out for them, but Mike found the job listing and Henry found that to be a good thing.
@@intotheindie8821 you forgot one thing though, the dialogue from the animatronics. The dialogue implies that they knew who the “brave volunteer” was.
Molten Freddy said “Together again!”
William says “you may not recognize me at first but it’s still me”
That dialogue and so much more points towards your character actually knowing them
The reason why Molten Freddy knew who you were and said “together again” was because most likely; you were Michael- Molten Freddy’s former vessel from Sister Location.
Springtrap recognizes you because you were his son. You most likely ran into him before and the only other recent time you ran into him was FNAF 3 where Michael is theorized to be the protagonist.
Do you know the 3 og books and do you know that Michael that in mention that he possess Golden Freddy and those 3 books are connected to security breach and grimrock Freddy is Bass on fredbear and fredbear is Golden Freddy so that means Michael Afton in the games is Grimrock Freddy because of the books
6:52 *fire* :)
so what side are you on
afton returns
or
it's just the new character mimic who becomes an afton clone
Side note: I do think F.N.A.F.6 is the best ending, while not perfect.
Also I believed Aubergine Man would’ve died in the fire, but Cassidy kept him alive to torment him with nightmare’s.
So Henry’s plan almost worked had that spirit ruined it.
I don't think he'd be old
Imagine they just go Michael afton was actually alive but he was killed off screen along with all the other staff during the meeting. Sorry guys he will probably come back next game anyway
>but he was killed off screen along with all the other staff during the meeting.
Yeah... I dont think that'd kill him if he literally got de-organ'd in SL and used as a fleshsuit.
@@higueraft571 yea I doubt it would, I was just joking about it
I actually beileve this theory instead of glamike theory honestly glamrock Freddy being Michael Afton THEORY makes no sense matpat didn't even tell origins how Mike is possessing glamrock Freddy so I do beileve that glamrock Freddy is possessed by Henry or I beileve that glamrock Freddy is not possessed by no one leave like if u agree that glamrock Freddy is possessed by Henry or leave a comment if u beileve that glamrock Freddy is not possessed by no one
Well he died in the scooping room if you want to be specific/literal.
On that note why are you assuming he can age?
Atleast someone is using the Tales of Pizzaplex novels to confirm it. But I need to watch the full video 1st :>
You are literally the only one who I’ve seen think that micheal is alive thank you!!
Edit: you make excellent points can’t wait to see the videos you make in the future!
Michael would be in his fifty’s now, hopefully he’s still living a good healthy life
I am
@@Michael_Afton40 Are you 53?
The Mimic is listening . . 🤫 . .
Good theory, I also think Michael's still alive and well and is out there somewhere to end the company for good.
I believe it also I personally believe Gregory is Micheals son I think it’s possible
why?
@@Ethereal_Spectacle honestly idk
He can't have a kid as a corpse
Didn't Scott confirm the emails were canon
Yes.
I'm right here
I think Henry is also back. Per the Bear and Fox anime.
Yes. Pretty sure the email itself confirms it.
I've already knew Michael was alive for like.. ever now but sadly I never convinced anyone
And I've been trying to say this for 4 years now
I don’t think Michael isn’t going to heaven 😢anytime soon 😢 no even the missing kids going to rest in heaven yet
There are actually more direct indications (easter eggs?) that he's still alive in security breach. There are a few other recent videos that cover more stuff about this.
I always believed he was alive since 2020
Love this and possiblity Henry possessing Glamrock Freddy.
