"If you survive my traps, you'll appreciate life. The fact that everyone who survives my traps becomes a murderer is just a wacky coincidence."

My problem with the glass coffin trap is that Strahm had so many opportunities to just leave the room before the trap actually started.

I do like how Kramer's pupils end up being just quirky serial killers. It shows that putting a person into a mentally scarring and self mutilating trap doesn't make them all right in the head afterwards. Most people experiencing torture become anxious, depressed and self-isolated. Some get PTSD and/or get major depression. It solidifies that Kramer isn't a good guy (as some people who believe the character that he never technically killed anyone, and is actually the good guy). Even in the best case scenario, his pupils just want revenge and any reason to murder anyone they feel like.

I love that the “supposed to lose” rigged games have a higher survival rates than the normal ones.

Fun fact: the angel trap doesn't kill her immediately. She's still conscious for ~1 minute after getting her ribcage ripped off.

I'm pretty sure John never rigged his games, he always gave the players a fair chance, however Amanda and Hoffman were the ones to rig the games

The saw movies originally were clever traps that still gave people chances to live and in the recent saw there is just a bunch of traps that just straight up just kill the person. I especially hate the angel trap. Allison died in a brutal way just because she was to good at being a detective???? What the heck. I thought these traps were for bad people but she died cause she is good at her job, seriously come on. PS. I know this one was in a early saw film being only saw 3.

The thing that really didn't make any sense in any of sequels was where on earth did a druggie and a cop get the engineering expertise to make such elaborate traps?

The guy with the question mark on his stomach in SAW 1 is also kind of rigged for his life... most of the traps in Spiral were rigged really

There was another one which people tend to forget and that is Amanda's trial from Saw III. Hoffman wanted to be the only survivor, so he switched the letter that Amanda was supposed to receive with something he wrote himself. This was to make her kill Lynn and fail John's test.

Ivan's bedroom trap was rigged in a different way. He was told he was given 1 minute, but the timer started as he was hearing the directions. After playing for 45 seconds, he only had 15 left after he knew how it worked to make his choice. The trap was still survivable, but it was rigged to disadvantage him.

What about the trap amanda was put in? She had to kill someone to survive. It's not fair to the cellmate who was drugged and could only live if Amanda failed. John made that one.

Love the videos! The Spiral one also has the tongue trap that I thought was never meant to be beatable. Like, unless there's a hospital right above the subway station or something, the detective is going to bleed out anyway, even if he does manage to rip off his tongue and crawl aside in time. Quite a few traps in the Saw movies that were beatable, but the people in it had to wound themselves so badly they'd probably die from those injuries later anyway. So how beatable were they, really?

I think one of the reasons why Stram didnt enter the coffin, were the two tubes on the coffin. Like the tubes in the drowning head box. I bet he was scared to get drowned again

Chained in classroom, Angel wings are the 2 worst rigged traps. Especially the wings. The look of wtf defeat on her face after she gets the locks open after getting the key from the acid; and it doesn’t release….

Kinda sad when both detective stram and kerry were killed. they had interesting charecters

Fun fact, Costas Mandalor who played Mark Hoffman is a totally different breed of actor. He wanted real glass in the glass coffin, but of course the director and producers said no, and in saw 4 ,Costas wanted to be tied really Good and extra tight .

Just a slight correction, the ring could be removed in the classroom trap, because it had a section cut out as it shows when Hoffman holds the ring so he had to rotate it to remove it. Although yes, it is inescapable due to the door being welded shut.

In the last trap, could Eziquel shoot the murderer and throw something at the target?

See I think the funniest thing about the angel trap isn't the fact that it is unbeatable but the fact that Allison's hand immediately starts burning in the acid. There were a few videos on NileRed's channel in which he shows that acid doesn't burn your hand that fast unless it is a very particular type of acid, in which case the key would have been nuked in probably like 5 seconds or at least reduced to an unusable state, in which case there'd be no point putting your hand in the glass and you would just kinda have to accept your fate.

Notice a pattern though? These traps aren't set up by John himself. With the RBT 2.0, I'm fully convinced that John would have wanted it to be possible to escape, but it's implied that Jill was angry with Hoffman for setting up Amanda and John's deaths, so she simply left him to die.

I’ve heard theories that Hoffman was meant to survive his bear trap test The test was to see if he could forgive Jill and not try to seek vengeance nor enforce his twisted justice That’s what Hoffman does, enforce unethical “justice”, and John wanted to test that behavior out of him That’s why Lawrence was meant to watch over Jill, So if he failed and killed Jill in revenge, Hoffman would be punished for failing his test

I love all your Saw videos! But think you missed a trap, the bathroom trap from the first movie. Sure it’s fully possible for Lawrence but the rigged part comes from Adam perspective. As we see in the beginning of the movie once he pulls the plug for he wouldn’t drown, the key goes straight down even though there are many multiple simple precautions they could have put in place to make sure the trap was possible. And all his tape says was to do was ‘Survive’. And even when he was able to do this he was still left for dead, this trap should be an example of “At least you didn’t fluff up as bad as John did.”

it seems possible that you can get into a saw trap by not saying thank you to the bus driver

You have such a pleasing voice I can listen to your videos all day😩

Even after Adam won his game by surviving John still refused to let him go.

I think it's a missed opportunity for the series to not make Strahm the main character. Have him survive more traps and give the audience a consistent character to stick with, and give Hoffman more headaches. Let's just say Hoffman did succeed in convincing the police that Strahm was the killer. Strahm survived but now nobody believes him and he became this vigilante foiling Hoffman's traps and uncovering the truth as a vigilante character. But nope each movie try to one up the twist endings and we got a mess of a franchise. Killing characters for the sake of shock value until they have no main character so they had to pull Dr Gordon out of their asses into this whole thing.

SPOILERS FOR SPIRAL Technically all the traps were rigged in Spiral considering firstly this is a revenge tale and all the guy wanted was revenge not for anyone to survive, and also the time given isn't enough, and or the thing the people have to do is impossible to survive and or it's straight up rigged to the point where they can't escape

I think I know why Amanda rigged their games Cause it was their idea of mercy John wanted to teach people to value life But in Amanda’s eyes Death is a mercy compared to living with the trauma of surviving a Saw trap That trauma sent them down this awful path Just my two cents

These SAW videos are definitely my favorite. Great job on these and the other videos hit start! :)

"The truth is, the game was rigged from the start" - John Kramer

On the angel trap: Would lowkey have been hilarious if she managed to yeet the acid at her killer. Or if the acid could have been used on the trap.

What about the saw 6 traps in which only 2 of 5 people can be safed and they have no control over it. Pretty unfair too

Since the beginning there were traps involving two people where someone had to choose who must die. Semantically it may not be murder if you are forcing someone else to make the killing blow, using your weapons, but it is not better than murder.

I feel like with the glass box trap, if Strahm did actually get into the box, whether or not Hoffman lived, all the evidence still pointed to Strahm as the jigsaw accomplice. Furthermore, if Hoffman did in fact die in that trap, it would be impossible to prove that Strahm isn’t the accomplice, as all the evidence points to him. Plus, his one suspect was just killed where he last was, which is very suspicious to the people who already suspect him.

I can't watch now, have to go to work, but I am so excited every time you post a video, keep up the good work 💪

Bro the tracheotomy part was so clever, i would of never thought to do that, nor would i have the balls to stab myself in the throat either lol, but it just shows how well thought out the traps are in saw, even though this was meant to be impossible.

Jigsaw never rigged any of the original traps but his followers where the ones who did all the rigging and that made Jigsaw very mad

Omg hitstart your channel grew so quickly, it was like yesterday you had around 11k

The glass coffin explanation is one I never thought of but makes SOOOO much sense

Great video, man. Keep up the good work. I'm proud of you

"We should never come from anger...or vengeance. You taught me that," Yeah, okay, John. Does Cecil ring a bell? Also Logan took out Halloran for vengeance against his wife. But Logan wasn't working under Jigsaw that long before being sent to war so maybe he didn't really know John's mantra before he left. This is meant to be Pre-Bathroom events so... It's all convoluted! 😛

Problem with your arguement for the glass coffin trap is that it's all speculative what would have happened had he simply listened to orders. Especially since it wasn't the first time he disobeyed orders to just drop it. It's highly possible that he would have been killed. It's also just as likely that he would have been seen as listening to jigsaw, and thus been more willing to be brought into the "cult" The entire setup OF the trap (each of them against the guy infact) was based on the idea that he would purposefully go against whatever jigsaw told him to do, even if it would have saved him to do so. This is also why people say he should've just gotten into the box. because everything points to the idea that jigsaw would be a 'man of his word' in the situation provided, even if hoffman is basically not 'jigsaw'.

In Amanda's defense, she rigged her traps because Mark was threatening to tell John that she was the reason for his unborn son's death. I know that John knew this already, but Amanda didn't and was scared of him finding out. That's not to say she didn't rig a few things, John did too, like in SAW 2, it was Amanda's job to ensure that Matt's son survived the house and got out. Otherwise, John couldn't have promised they would find him in a 'safe' place. It's because of that, I feel Mark is the only one who rigged things.

Ok… So to point out the problem. The ice cube trap was possible. All he had to do was wait the timer out. That was the ONLY thing he had to do.

The first trap you talk about with the laser colar, the other guy had already lost the game, by tricking logan and cheating and pressing logan's button to force him to confess first, that is why he had no chance of winning anymore. We don't know what would have happened if he had not tricked logan.

Also, starting with saw 3 ,all the traps work in real life as it works in the film, which includes the horrific angel trap

Don’t overlook the safe and candle trap that John made. That one was also impossible to survive

i remember your saw 3 video when it came out love your videos

I think bathroom trap is also rigged..well, not that rigged as Angel Trap or Classroom Trap, but it was impossible for Adam to escape. His key went to the drain, his hecksaw broke and even thought he won the game, he still was locked in bathroom

Not exactly, the only trap that appears to have been rigged by Jigsaw was The Rack, where there is a key, but no lock, so there was not way out. The others always gave the person in the trap a chance, but although he wasn't afraid of collateral. The other traps were rigged by his successors.

I think Logan was waiting for the Detective to admit to the specific crime he explained. But he's done a lot wrong so who blames him for not remembering?

This channel is awesome. Keep up the good work.

Before watching: you better not include any of Amanda's traps. Those don't count. After watching: 2 Amanda traps. Good job on showing restraint and not padding out the video, cos like, ALL of Amanda's traps were meant to be 100% unbeatable

Hands down the angel trap was the most unfair tbh

You explained each trap excellently thank you

John never rigged his traps but every other jigsaw did lol

Basically all traps in spiral are impossible

You'll never stop being a legend, man. :)

I think if Strahm got into the coffin it would have closed without the coffin lowering into the ground, still crushing him. I have no doubt that Hoffman could have set up to where it would only lower for him somehow. Maybe he has a device on him that the lowering mechanism senses.

Oh, that pendulum one is based off of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Pit and the Pendulum”.

At 6:02 in this video, you see Hoffman pick up a ring with a piece cut out of it. My guess is that this is the ring which was in the guy's mouth. Sure, it would still be difficult to pull out, but you could pull it through your teeth and unhook it, rather than having to rip out your entire jaw, so I don't think this part of the trap was necessarily impossible.

Another great video, Most fans believe every trap in spiral is rigged, it would be really cool if you could break down every trap in the movie with your opinion 🔥👏

Can someone tell me where can I get those traps ? I need it for a school project

I’d say the hot wax trap from Spiral is also rigged. The other traps are arguably escapable (Besides the last trap) but the hot wax one, you’re screwed one way or another imo

fun fact! the actor for hoffman requested that the glass in the glass coffin trap be real so his pain would look more genuine on camera. naturally, the film crew and director said no-

Guess who just found a channel to watch on incognito mode with a side of notebook, a pencil and good ol' tea... I'm a writer I swear.

All the traps in saw 3 are rigged because none of the victims had any way of surviving, they just had to rely on Jeff sparing them. They weren't given a chance. How Jigsaw never realized that is beyond me

I thought you were gunna talk about the wax trap in spiral how tf is someone supposed to paralyze themselves with a blade they can't see with precision accuracy while hot wax is poured on your face like wtf is that bs?

I mean marcus wasnt surviving anyway, did you see how much of his blood was drained. I mean him being alive after loosing what looks like 2/3 of his blood makes no sense

When you look back and notice all John's assistants has failed him at the end. Even John was willing to give the man that killed his unborn child a chance to live and become better person. His assistants never gave their victims chance to change. He was surrounded by murderers.

more saw videos please 🙏✌🏼 and keep up the great work

Johns games always have the chance for them to live as long as they're willing to survive. But once he died, his apprentices went overboard with the traps, leaving them to die no matter what

In Spiral when he saved his dad he still chose to take down the killer so he tried to have both options. Not just saving his dad so you can argue that it was just a fail safe incase so really it was just zeke trying to have both options

Funfact:the actor of hoffman played in movie 8-bit christmas and when they were shoping hoffman as the dad was alone in one shop and was standing next to jigsaw puppet

I firmly believe that from the way Hoffman was speaking on the tape he was trying to get Strahm to join him and become a Jigsaw killer. The coffin seemed like a twisted version of the trust fall. He wanted Strahm to see he wasn't completely untrustworthy. Also look at Hoffman as the room was crushed, Hoffman turns away in remorse when Strahm is killed. It's directly stated in an interview by the actor that "He had a consciousness at some points". I find the constant repeating of "Do you trust me?" as a covert way of trying to plead with Strahm to give his way of justice a chance otherwise why repeat it so often? You might argue his speech at the end of "Your legacy will become mine" is more of him saying he has a plan for both outcomes, live or die. (This is a cut content related thing so it's not 100 percent valid) Remember the original ending of Saw 5 was that Strahm would have beat Hoffman to death in the glass coffin room, it would have shown Strahm was capable of being a killer for the sake of his own version of justice. Also we saw in the original glass coffin in Saw 4 there's a key inside of it, Hoffman might have removed it but the only purpose a key inside the coffin would serve would be to open the coffin from the inside meaning if Hoffman had doubts about killing him he could still open the coffin if he wanted to.

The glass coffin wasn't originally meant to be a trap, Kramer build it as an escape mechanism if something were to go wrong

It is clear he does not wanna let go of the Saw franchise.

I feel as though if Halloran pressed his own button, making him go first, Logan would’ve let him go, all while destroying his career in the process.

it feel like every saw movie except spiral just becomes more violent than their prequel

Detective Kerry was definitely my favorite side character and it was sad to see her go just because she did her job “too well”

What about the first one how was I think Adam supposed to grab the key

Jigsaw: I never actually killed anybody. 😂

I feel like there are more things that could be done in the classroom trap for more chances of survival. The biggest obstacle is the jaw ring, and if that was removed, it would be best to hold that piece back where it was to hold the blood in, but more importantly to at least make discernable noises. Second, while there are mesh cages over the windows, there are still many pieces of furniture in the room which could be used to smash the windows open. If lucky, he could just jump out of the room onto the ground outside if it was low enough, but if not, then he would have to call for help. That's all I got. Despite these few more things for survival, I'm pretty sure it's all for naught

the trap that was most rigged imo was that Hoffman and Strahm looked so similar.. it’s embarrassing how often I got them mixed up first time watching the movie lol

Everyone forgets Adam from the first Saw film. There’s NO WAY John didn’t think about the risk of the key going down the drain, and the game would have played out very differently if Adam had the key from the start. Other tests of John have the victim screw themself over by conscious actions, not by unconscious spasms as they slip underwater. It was always intended that Adam was to be shot by Lawrence and die, or some other horrible fate.

I can not find the How to Beat Every Trap in Jigsaw video on your channel. Did you make one?

Hoffman must have left the pen in Stroms pocket on purpose

I think that the last few traps we seen ( besides spiral) were inescapable and overly hard because of johns waining psyche. Around saw 4 and maybe 3 I think that John believed that he was genuinely healing people. While his pupils were murdering people John just went deeper and deeper into paranoia and psychosis either caused by his deterioration of his brain from cancer or the deterioration of his mental health from the stress of being on the run.

Love ur vids!

Ridiculous or not, I like the end of Spiral

I always thought that with strahm as I never believed that Hoffman would have let him live

All these traps are grusome😮 If this were legal, I would hide myself in a underground bunker

next up: every time jigsaw said anything

You should show this to DougDoug's chat

I always thought the cop in Jigsaw's real test was pushing the right button to admit what he'd done; and when he pushed Logan's button he failed the test. Similar deal with the water cube, had he followed the directions on the tape he would have survived, he didn't listen, so he failed. I don't think John meant for Hoffman to even be there for that test.

I still can’t get over the rack in Saw lll. How do you beat that?!😱

I wish there was a Saw movie where the victims don’t act like fucking selfish idiots. Ik it’s meant to play into their unscrupulous flaws and that they’re bad people but seeing if they can beat the games together would make “horror” movies more satisfying than generic stupidity and repetitive deaths

The Hoffmanator!

The issue with the Glass Coffin is that Hoffman can see the coffin from outside the room.
