Ah, the Dayshift at Freddy's versions of Henry and William.

@@conflictbrooks hey old sport

I see it less as being stupid, since he clearly knows quite a few things about what he's doing, and more so just being cheap, arrogant, and probably careless about his employees' safety, which he has also shown many times.

He's not dumb actually. His goal was to be immortal. He achieved immortality by his soul possisesing the springbonnie suit. He designed it to basically kill the wears

@@roxasveneris1087 He designed the spring suits before he even wanted those things, (as his desire for those things only came after the death of his son) him achieving immortality was basically an accident.

In Metal Gear Solid 3, Sigint spends a long time criticising the concept of a Metal Gear to Big Boss... and then Big Boss spends the next thirty years building Metal Gears. I don't know how much engineering there is to criticise in them, since most of the arguments are about their military effectiveness, but it could be fun to look into

Id like to see him try to replicate the illusion discs

​@@WolfWalrusconsidering the whole point of most non-stationary strategical nuclear missile launchers that were developed is being either undetectable (submarines) or highly mobile and easy to relocate (nuclear powered planes, railroad nuke launchers and those cursed hover pyramids of nuclear destruction that were supposed to ride around the deserts) putting nukes on a relatively small robot that can navigate any terrain is not that stupid of an idea.

@@koghs the main problem SIGINT has is the idea of putting legs on a tank. It increases its ground clearance and frontal projection without offering any meaningful benefit over treads. Even in the modern day having bipedal robots is hard for us, and Big Boss started building these things back in the seventies. Heck, Sahelanthropus straight up _doesn't work_ and has to be puppeted by a psychic in order to actually do anything

Nah, I wouldn't worry about it too much, elevators are some of the safest modes of transportation out there! It's borderline impossible for an elevator to fall down the shaft like they do in the movies, on the very off chance that the cable breaks while you're in the elevator, there are about 5 different things that will catch it after a second or so. Even if the cable did snap while you were in it, you likely wouldn't even get hurt!

Yea that makes sense :o

I don't think afton's under funded, Fazbear entertainment is only one company he owns, he also runs a robotics company, responsible for designing the animatronics and other things, such as illusion sound disks, which have the brand name on them, indicating they are products the he sells, so I am sure he makes quite a lot of money, Afton is just extremely selfish, so likely he didn't take the time to pay for safety measures that actually worked. In the books he had survived being spring locked before, but continued using the suit, because of his pride and weird obsession with the suit.

​@@LucaviHartleyI believe in the books he continued using the suit because he was able to "guide" the animatronics into doing whatever he wanted them to do: he outright says the animatronics think he is one of them and they trust him So basically, he feels powerful in the suit and that's the reason why he keeps using it

@@EmiMayhemYT oh I know that, I mean, he is also obsessed with wearing the suit, after being springlocked a second time with no way out he abandoned his real identity and straight up based his entire identity as springtrap (Twisted Ones)

💀 Why is this a genuine theory that I have (not a joke) is in a bigger theory, but it’s still funny🤣

I've always imagined that the hand-crank probably works a bit like a toy soldier, where it's one big key on the back that you stick a ratchet into or something.

Hand cranks don't look like that though, if you Google it they're more like pedals in a bicycle

The books also use a very different type of suit, which explicitly has the endo entirely removed instead of pulled apart like in the games. In the books, it's just a series of hooks that hold hte suit in place, while in the games, the entire endoskeleton is pulled apart to make room for the wearer while still keeping the endo inside.

​@@syweb2поэтому я не понимаю - Зачем постоянно отсылаться к книгам?Там же все иначе.Это вроде та же вселенная,но там происходят другие события даже изобретения выходят иначе.Поэтому не понимаю людей,которые во время обсуждения игра используют книги,а не игры

@@user-pj9iy5il7w The books establish concepts and characters that are often brought into the games, like the name of the killer (William Afton) and the idea of illusion disks, which are somewhat suggested to exist in the games by Funtime Freddy's comically small "power module" that otherwise matches their description very well. It seems like the books end up using both versions of the springlock suit (the springsuit with the removable endo, and the game-version with the compressed endo), so there's some grey area for what carries over and what doesn't. The issue with the books is that they have some wild concepts and it's never clear what is meant to carry over one to one (like William's name and his partnership with Henry), what's a narrative parallel (like a lot of things in Fazbear Frights, such as Andrew paralleling UCN's Vengeful Spirit who is heavily hinted to be Cassidy, or the events of Room For One More paralleling what happens to Mike in Sister Location), and what is totally separate (faz-goo, Sea Bonnies, Lonely Freddy's mind-swap).

@@syweb2 А разве это не является ленью/неумением автора нормально написать историю,а не использовать параллели,или просто что-то делая каноном,а что-то нет.Это выглядит так,будто книга это просто черновик,куда Скотт пишет все что ему придет в голову,а уже потом что-то добавляет в основную вселенную,а что-то нет.Согласись,было бы куда лучше если бы книги были во вселенной игры.Они смогли бы не меняя персонажей рассказать историю самой игры,без всего лишнего.В тех же серебрянных глазах,вместо того сюжета мы могли бы подробнее узнать о мире игры,о сотрудниках,о взаимодействии Генри и Уильма(коего очень мало).Что ты считаешь?

william was desperate and delusional when he went into the suit because of tha ghosts

It’s not even good engineering prowess, he just stole an already existing mechanism, made it worse, and called it a day!

@@TheChiptide To be fair, doesn't that apply to most arrogant show-offs?

I didnt think Henry made this suit. It was from Baby's pizzeria, Wich was William's restaurant

​@@erickamakeeaina1649 So, this theory kind of draws on a few separate things from across FNaF. One, Circus Baby's Pizza World was early, and there is a reasonable likelihood Henry and William were both still involved with Fazbear at this point in time. We know it's early because a spring lock suit was designed for it at all, and this is backed up by the AR Faz Facts that mention animatronics with claw mechanisms as among the earliest. In fact, Baby implies the suit has killed someone before, so it may very well be responsible for the incident that gets them retired. Two, Funtime Chica appears to exist at the time of Sister Location (one of the teasers mentions Chica's Party World as a client of Afton Robotics). However, when we get her in Pizzeria Simulator, she has no liability attached despite being part of the Funtime line. This suggests to me that while William built the Funtimes we see most, he may not have designed _all_ of them-why would he make them all capture bots but then leave Chica as normal and safe to be around? Three, in the novels Henry implies he's taken steps towards killing William. William also has gone through a spring lock failure between when he was last seen in 1985 and when he reappears in 1995. Adding two and two up, it seems that in the novel timeline (which of course does have a lot of differences from the games timeline), Henry sabotaged a spring lock suit he knew William would use. (Probably Spring Bonnie in that continuity, there's some weird stuff with it and William in _The Silver Eyes_ that seems supernatural.) Four, the suit in Sister Location is _absurdly_ deadly. Like, I know these things are walking death traps, but Spring Bonnie has been sitting in that back room for a decade getting rained on and breaking down, yet before it fails William _still_ can move around in it more than we can move in this thing. It's almost like it was _designed_ to fail or something. Wait... Put it all together, and it seems fairly plausible to me that when Henry began to suspect William of being behind Charlotte's disappearance but knew he didn't have enough to go to the cops with, he offered to pitch in on this new restaurant that was being started under the Fazbear umbrella, designing this suit to trigger easily and get rid of him. Unfortunately, in this timeline some random person got caught in the crossfire instead, likely part of why it takes him so long to act a second time. (I actually think the suit might _be_ Funtime Chica, because the face shape looks pretty similar and we never see any extra Funtimes besides her, but there's no hard evidence for that.)

@@TheChiptide This suit, along with Spring Bonnie and the Twisted Ones, were built with the intention of the Spring Locks purposely failing, essentially acting as some sort of bear trap for unsuspecting prey, hence the nickname "Springtrap". The animatronics pull you inside btw.

It’s genuinely impressive that he managed to make a fully functional robot/suit hybrid that sucks in just about every way

I thought that too, (because that would be the smart thing to do) but if they were they wouldn’t slowly unwind like they do in sister location, if the bolt failed the spring would just immediately snap open

@@TheChiptide it’s a bit hard to think genius William Afton would implement such a complex mechanism to the suit

They literally made a point in one of the games that people were complaining that the suits were starting to smell like death… boy oh boy, wonder where those kids went??

yooo I didn’t know id see you here

@@adminbosskiller4010 I'm everywhere there's springlock at! haha

they also give a decent explenation about thespringlock when the suit failed

Yeah, I don’t expect him to know all the ins and outs of how real Springlocks work and where you would want to use them, but it does kinda undermine William’s mystique a bit when you realize he was kind of a moron…

I might be late to the party here but.. Is it possible to use the crank to lock all the springs in the suits at the same time with enough force? I mean.. taken into account that W.A got away with these 10 million safety hazards. Because if so.. Yeah he's still an idiot.

To answer your question, yes! He easily could have done that!
