*sighs* No, it was not Fredbear.

Kids: *tears apart Mangle* Mangle: You have lost your frontal lobe privileges

Everyone knows Scott caused the bite of 87 to make matpat’s brain explode

I always hated how everyone assumes the victim was a child at the party. Remember the Night 4 call, where Phone Guy states the animatronics were acting aggressively towards the staff and get along fine with the kids, but stare when they see an adult. I actually think Jeremy Fitzgerald was the victim. He was on the day-shift that day. And the animatronics have been trying to jump him for the past week, and it was a perfect chance to do so.

I always thought it was mangle, the way his jumpscare animation is literally her swooping down and biting you in the head gives you obvious clues that he's the one who did it. I also always liked mangle because of her design, and because of the brand new mechanic he introduced.

when withered bonnie looks like an accurate depiction of what the bite of 87 victim's face would look like

I could see Scott one day revealing the culprits randomly online in like 12 years. It just feels like such a Scott move to wait years after his retirement, and to never mention the series for ages, and then just return from the grave and casually unveil one of the greatest mysteries in the entire series

I like how scott made the lore so confusing people need to create 34 minute videos just to explain who bit someone in the frontal lobe

I always felt really bad for phone guy. He seemed relatively wholesome, and even though they never met, it felt like he was a friend of the night guard. He seemed genuinely terrified upon his demise

I love how realistic Scott sounds in the phone calls, like he’s actually relating information about events he saw

I think phone guy’s death went like this: he closes the left door, causing Foxy to bang on it. He pulls up the camera, and opens the kitchen cam where he hears Freddy playing the Toreador March. Chica sneaks in while he’s looking on the cam and starts making noise, and phone guy then switches to the left door cam, where he sees the Golden Freddy poster. He quickly pulls down the cam, where Golden Freddy kills him before Chica can, explaining why we hear his jumpscare. Despite being paranormal, he is capable of killing, as he can do so to Mike Schmidt.

For the Freddy handprint: It is seen on FNAF 1 Repaired Freddy. The bite took place back when Freddy was withered (FNAF 2), and Withered Freddy lacks the prints. That means they are literally not connected to the bite in any way

It’s all fun and games until Scott reveals the culprit as balloon boy. This would be absolutely terrifying.

despite being such a huge debate in the fandom, the bite of '87 is nearly irrelevant from a plot perspective, aside from leading to the closing of the fnaf 2 location. but great video- i love this analysis.

I'm glad someone decided to finally solve this mystery once and for all. It really feels like you put a lot of effort and dedicated a lot of research into this.

I personally think toy chica could be ruled out because unlike many of the other animatronics, toy chica doesn't have a jaw hinge. Looking at her design, it doesn't look like there's any way for toy chicas mouth to open any more than it already is, so she definitely couldn't have bitten down on somebody's head.

5:15 "They interact with the kids just fine, but when they encounter an adult, the just. . . stare." that gave me the chills lol

Wow, can’t believe you hired Candy Cadet to do the voiceover for you. Must’ve been hard to get in touch of him due to how famous he is.

5:15 bro this is just perfect when he says the word “stare” toy bonnie opens his eyes its just perfect

As a wise man once said, WAS THAT THE BITE OF '87!!!

Alternate title: Candy Cadet Talks About Who Did The Bite of ‘87.

I always thought the Bite of 87 was highly over analyzed by the Fandom. It's clear Scott Cawthon never intended for it to be important, and I think he just needed a way of telling the player that the Robots are dangerous and are capable of hurting people, so he added a small story about one biting a kids frontal lobe off. That sends the message that they're dangerous perfectly fine. However it became another case of Fans taking something in the lore and ramping it up to grand importance.

Great deduction, that really makes a lot of sense. Good video!

It also makes sense for Mangle to be the culprit because phone guy said "stay close to the animatronics make sure they hurt anyone" and Mangle is literally torn apart and is the one to most likely to hurt someone due to malfunction sense her circuits are scrambled.

5:13 I like how the "they just STARE" perfectly syncs to toy Bonnie opening his eyes

maybe the handprints on freddys face were people touching him resulting in the rule dont touch freddy?

7:42 Thanks for bringing up the counterargument for the Fredbear and Friends! 1983. It grinds my gears when people use that piece of evidence, I also like how you present evidence in favour of bite of '83 with better weight.

Thank you for informing me about your transformers videos imma go and watch them after I finish this video!

Mark be like: Was that the bite of '87!? 😱

The bite was probably caused by one of the toy animatronics, because they were noted to have gotten more aggressive, even at daytime. My guess is that it might have been Mangle, because she was torn up by the children. This could lead her to do this because of two reasons. First reason is that because of how damaged she was, she could have malfunctioned, and bit the child. The second reason is that she held a grudge, and couldn't take the pain anymore. I don't blame Mangle, though. If I got torn up by children, I would be mad too.

You are literally the best text-to-speech channel out there.

>Named Charlie >Immediately disqualifies Puppet as a potential biter Damn I wonder if there's any bias involved there 😆

I would like to add something! It's implied the '87 bite victim was an employee rather than a customer! The toys are connected to a criminal database so they can protect the kids from possible predators. However this facial recognition system doesn't really work well, causing their staring problem with adults. In the same line where phone guy 2.0 states they act differently with children, they also state they're almost aggressive towards staff workers. Due to their nature, I doubt it would be a child victim as they show no resentment towards them and that includes Mangle so that slightly makes her less likely.

I believe that those handprints on Freddy's face are actually from the bear himself. In the West Hall corner, there is a rare chance that the Freddy poster hung up on the wall will change to a poster of Freddy pulling his own head apart, with his hands in the exact same positions as the handprints on his head in the photo.

Reasons why I think it’s Mangle: She has a large enough jaw She can open it big enough No, it isn’t Withered Foxy, since he is deactivated in Parts/Service during day Mangle can be the ONLY animatronic to dangle on walls and knowing now that the bite was on the Frontal Lobe, she might have swung down from the ceiling and bite him.

Wanna know something? If you listen to the noise mangle makes, it's a radio convo with two security guards. During this convo, we hear "We have a kid without a frontal lobe!"

5:42 Yeah, I personally believe that Jeremy Fitzgerald is the only night guard without any prior affiliations with fazbear entertainment. He's just a regular guy with no idea what's coming for him.

5:14 the way you perfectly timed him saying "stare" along with Toy Bonnie staring at you is such a cool yet subtle detail

5:15 i love how the word stare syncs with bonnie opening his eyes, attention to detail man

Bro really ruled out the puppet before the paper pals 💀💀💀

I've always thought it was Mangle, and since the mystery of the bite has been silently dropped, we'll never get any evidence disproving Mangle and no other animatronic fits the bill as well so my verdict is that it had to have been Mangle. As for who killed the Phone Guy, I loved how you were able to use sound to determine who it was, I think there aren't many people out there who really think about the fact that Phone Guy was in your office at the time of his death, so game rules and sounds apply, I've never really seen an analysis like that. However ii still think Golden Freddy killed him, just the fact that he can jumpscare the player and end their game in both Fnaf 1 and 2 proves he can kill and interact with physical objects to a degree. Also its possible that the Fnaf 1 GF is not exactly the same as Fnaf 2 GF, we know that two souls inhabit GF, Cassidy and Cryingchild, it's possible that Fredbear/Fnaf 1 GF represents CC and Cassidy is represented by Fnaf 2 GF so different ghostly rules apply. Since Fnaf 1 GF only disappears and reappears as apposed to having a floating head appear in a hallway, it could suggest a more physical presence than Fnaf 2 GF. But that's just my interpretation, since Chica was in the office at the time of the attack its always possible that she held him in place while Golden Freddy actually did the deed, but I'll let you decide what you think

In an alternate universe "And then there was the Bite Of 87, yeah, it's incredibly confusing how a character like (*insert character name here*) could bite an entire frontal lobe off."

I Love The Thumbnail Because Fredbear Is Crossed Out But Toy Freddy, Springbonnie, The Balloon Kids, The Puppet, And The Paper Pals Are Definitely Suspects

I also beleive that the attack was coordinated amongst them, with Foxy notifying the others by banging, Freddy playing his music box to distract Phone Guy, Bonnie and Chica BOTH moaning, and Golden Freddy appearing as Phone Guy lowers his camera, killing him.

I always took it as mangle due to how he swoops down but I’ve always liked her as a character due to his name, design (not in a weird way), and just the unique gameplay mechanic she introduced.

I always though the Bite of 87 was a Lobotomy Coverup where an employee saw the Withered Animatronics with dead children in them but since Fazbear Entertainment wasn’t gonna shut down another restaurant the Employee was Lobotomised

“But when they encounter an adult, they just stare” and then toy Bonnie opens his eyes just as phone guys says stare. Best unintentional timing ever.

I think that it was one of these animatronics, toy bonnie, toy chica, or mangle. My reason is that all of them attack the frontal lobe (or the head) like mangle comes from above, toy chica says her beak is logged in our head, and toy bonnie lunges at us

There’s multiple things we need to know. Withered Bonnie, Balloon Boy and The Puppet get eliminated because of no functioning jaws to bite with. The Withereds can’t do it, because if they did, the toy animatronics wouldn’t get scrapped, the older models would. That eliminates Freddy, Chica and Foxy. Then the Toy models. I doubt Toy Bonnie. His jaw doesn’t open that far. Might scrape a bit of your head, but thats it. Same goes for Toy Freddy. I also doubt Toy Chica. Can she open her beak? She can remove her beak, but can she open it substantially? That leaves Mangle. The perfect culprit. Close to the kids and the adults. Kids keep taking her apart, Jeremy tells the kids not to mess with Mangle, boom, Mangle strikes.

if it was mangle, she really do be like "im done with you crap"

We could also imply that Michael Afton was the character we played as, this would explain how FNAF 2 was set in 1987. As you researched before mine cannot speak, move, or problem solving. We know that Scott (creator) hasn’t always exactly been perfect with medical accuracy but we can certainly assume this is not Michael. Fitzgerald can be confirmed as a character but a side character. Due to the fact pointed out that he was sent to day shift where the bite occurred. - So sorry if this was already mentioned >_< : Tysm if you read!

In five nights at Freddy’s one, the phone guy also says that it’s against the rules to have an endoskeleton without a costume on. I’m pretty sure it was most likely on night one.

Personally, I think the night guard bit himself to he wouldn't have to witness the awful ships.

Also, consider the following: Foxy is thought to be, even by the employees, the most dangerous animatronic of the original four, with sharp teeth and a metal hook. Other Foxy's keep the tradition of looking stabby like, but that's because they look like FNaF 1 Foxy. Mangle, on the other head, looks way too nice and friendly to ever be considered scary, with a white and pink body color palette and red rosy cheeks. Funtime Foxy also looks a bit like Mangle, albeit with more parts everywhere. Funtime Foxy actually has no hooks, if you notice; both are hands. But how do both Mangle and Funtime Foxy attack when they get you? They appear from below/top and open their mouths wide. If they can't claw you, then they'll have to bite off, keeping the Foxy tradition of being dangerous. Edit: Forgot to write this here but Mangle's circuits and body parts being mish-mashed by kids could also explain the hostility of Mangle, allowing her for maybe even sharper teeth than they seem. I dunno, they took out an eye and put on a freaking head on him from nowhere, so really these kids' magic have no limits to whatever they feel like pulling out of their asses.

"non of the fun times will be included" Toy funtime foxy as mangle: are you sure about that.

And than you realize the phone calls were prerecorded. Though yeah the call asking what you're doing there (can't remember if it was night 5 or 6) had to have been made in the present as you're playing since he wouldn't know you were at all. Also about the Phone guy death, honestly the scream makes it likely that it was Golden cause it's his scream. Considering that Foxy was banging and Freddy had the music box, Phone Guy might have been in the kitchen. We may not be able to leave the office during the night but he can Holding the door shut with Goldie being the only one able to kill him. Maybe that's why the camera's broken his body's in the kitchen and they tried to destroy the evidence. -starbonnie

The animatronics don't see you as a endo skeleton this has been obvious since 2014, hell bonnie in fnaf 1 walks past a endo skeleton and did absolutely nothing.

5:13 That gave me chills. Bonnie opening his eyes when PG said "they just. *Stare.*

In the bonus theory, I think there actually can still be an argument for Freddy. When your power runs out, animatronics cannot attack, except for Foxy on rare occasions. But since Foxy had knocked so much already, it's safe to assume he returned to his curtains by this point. The power goes out, Freddy plays his music box, and while that happens Chica and Bonnie can't attack.

I'd like to add onto the evidence for Mangle a bit: during the phone call where he brings up the party, Phone Guy mentions to not let people near the animatronics (or something to that effect). However, since Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica would be on stage, it's unlikely anyone would be getting close enough to get bitten by one of them-but Mangle, as a take-apart-and-put-together attraction, would be getting close enough to bite someone. Love the video, and great video ♥️

5:11 I like how toy Bonnie opened his eyes as phone guy said stare, was that intentional? I hope

School starts in 10 minutes for me, but I still have enough time to watch this

remember one thing, jeremy fitzgerald was an employee, he may have wandered of to the parts and service and Freddy or Foxy may have bitten him but who knows!

Its so odd how The Bite of 87 honestly does not have that much significance in the plot at all. I just feel like it's just supposed to be some scary thing just to be scary personally. But honestly, the Bite of 87 I believe is linked to actually trying to fix Mangle back together by the staff and that managed to fail.

Can we talk about how genuinely scared phone guy was to hear that someone used the spring bonnie suit

I honestly think there’s a good chance the Bite of 87 was retconned altogether. All the lead up to FNaF 4 pointed towards it being about the Bite of 87, with the teasers saying “Was it me? Or me?” And with Fredbear being the culprit of the bite of 83, and Golden Freddy appearing when putting 1/9/8/7 into fnaf 1 custom night, and the numbers 8 and 7 being in the source code for fnaf 4 teasers, and the fact that the bite of 87 is never mentioned again and seemingly unimportant, unless it was retconned to be 1983 and the victim possibly indirectly caused the murders. Scott has confirmed that there has been one major retcon in the series (after SL came out iirc?) and I think it’s possible that the retcon was either the Bite of 87 or Dream Theory

The night 5 phone call is Golden Freddo/Fredbear rallying the others. The snippets of screams are the animatronics giving their approval to Cassidy's plan. Lighter pitch screams are the main 3, and the deep ones are foxy.

5:15 The timing on Bonnie is just so perfect

Another reason why Mangle may br the victim: Shes the only one who theoretically could probably do very serious damage to someone, sue to having a large mouth and sharp teeth

I don’t think it’s Mangle because of a few big reasons: The Phone Guy told Jeremy to stay near the animatronics during his day shift, and where are most of the animatronics? The Show Stage. Mangle is being taken apart by children, so they couldn’t do anything unless they were quick enough to escape the children (An unlike the logic in SFM animations, Mangle couldn’t have used the force to pull themselves back together). The bite victim couldn’t have been a child either because according to Phone Guy again, the animatronics interacted with the kids perfectly fine. Another thing, the way the jumpscare is positioned makes it to where Mangle bit off Jeremy’s entire face instead of just the frontal lobe. Mangle’s jaw size also is too big to do solely damage to the frontal lobe, unless they didn’t use their entire jaw to bite the victim, there’s no way they could have done it.

If Toy Bonnie did the bite, the pizzeria would need three garbage bags, a shovel, some disinfectant, some latex gloves, and oregano.

There's two details you forgot: Mangle is a canine controlled anamotronic. They were a result of Afton learning to use remnant. They were given a voice in UCN due to fan's arguing about it's gender so you hear both in its speech. Hilarious. Golden Freddy is controlled by two souls - Cassidy (the vengeful child of UCN) and crying child (Afton's youngest son). There is no endoskeleton in his suit. He most likely left an opening for Chica. (Also yes, the second teeth are indeed of her endoskeleton)

Here’s why I think it’s Mangle ultimately: If one of the original bit them (which the old ones shouldn’t even be OUT during the party lol) there’s no way those old models would later be redesigned to the FNAF 1 location. Phony Guy wants the guy to carefully watch the animatronics to “make sure nothing goes wrong” this would entail to the “FUNCTIONING” animatronics, we would assume the party would take place in the main dining room so try all of the toys to perform for the kids, and with Toy Freddy, Chica, and Bonnie all present, including BB and Puppet, there’s only ONE animatronic that was NOT present! Mangle stays in KID COVE! Also, people say Mangle is just a take apart/put back together attraction now, so they could assume they wouldn’t really need to watch out for her since she’s not even physically capable of doing anything, or so they thought… Here’s comes to the final evidence that PROVES it was Mangle! Mangle can crawl on ceilings, and kids and adults would be focused at the party and the animatronics performing, and of course, if the security guard (the one who got locked in the pizzeria on night 6) was having to watch on the animatronics, he would’ve been able to get away from the animatronics if they decided to start attacking him, as he’s supposed to be keeping a close eye on them! BUT! Nobody is checking mangle as there is no need to! And this ultimately shows how the security guard lost his frontal lobe… JUST LIKE FNAF 2, MANGLE COULD’VE DANGLED RIGHT ABOVE THE GUARD, AND THEN BITE ONTO HIM WITH NOBODY NOTICING! To recap, here’s the reasons why I KNOW it’s Mangle! 1: None of the old animatronics coulda done it cause they were broken down therefor wouldn’t be at the party, this also would make sure the old models were gone for good IF they DID do it! 2: Bb and Puppet don’t have mouths able to do that, and they are attractions so somebody would’ve noticed them. 3: The main 3 were performing on stage while being watched closely by the security guard in the purple uniform. 4: Mangle was the only one not where the party was being held, so nobody had to bother keeping an eye on her, plus, she’s mangled up so they, again, can assume Mangle wasn’t physically capable to even more around at all. 5: An animatronic fox jaw would definitely be able to cause fracture to your frontal lobe knowing the animatronic’s design. 6: Mangle is able to crawl on the ceiling, which would prevent her from being noticed more easily. 7: Everyone else was focused on the other animatronics and the party, they would have no reason to look up at all to see Mangle crawling forward across the ceiling. 8: Mangle is logically the ONLY animatronic that could’ve done it based on where the animatronics were and what state they were in! 9: While the security guard would possibly be able to get away from a bite from the other animatronics that he’s right next to, watching over, he wouldn’t notice Mangle, so he wouldn’t have ANY way to to escape her bite on him! And Finally…The Key Evidence…! *10: Notice how up to this point every animatronic has been used in the same restaurants, despite being on display, or even just for parts? Well, in the FNAF 1 pizzeria, there was no trace of the toy animatronics AT ALL! Just the old models! This is because MANGLE was a toy animatronic! So when she BIT out his frontal lobe in 1987, the company would completely scrap the toy animatronics, for safety precautions, and to avoid future law suits!* With all of this info, MANGLE, WITHOUT A DOUBT, WAS THE CAUSE OF THE BITE OF 1987!!!! >:D

*gasp* WAS THAT THE BITE OF 87’?!

I always thought toy Bonnie did it, since I believe the shadows have something to do with agony (example: shadow Freddy, agony from the missing children who were stuffed in the animatronic bodies, therefore shadow Freddy is the agony of Gabriel’s, Cassidy’s or possibly crying child’s death), and then we have shadow Bonnie. If he was formed by agony, like shadow Freddy then something must have happened in order for him to become a corrupted sorrowful figure of his original form, which led me to think he caused the bite, bringing shadow Bonnie to existence as agony of previous events (AKA the bite of 87).

Freddy's Handprints are him ripping his head off in the easter egg because his jaw is on his right and for you it would be your left and he would put his hand across his eye and to rip the top off he would grab the outside and inside his jaw thats why you can't see fingerprints on the jaw print and then he would break his head... -Confusing Facts 2069 😜😉

Mangle has always been my favorite animatronic. Her schtick is just so unique and the fact that he's so uniquely tortured by her role as a "pull apart and put together" animatronic adds extra intrigue to the character. I also wonder if maybe Foxy's "Out of Order" sign and the general belief from a lot of staff that he's uniquely dangerous could be related to Mangle causing the bite - as they see Foxy as a different version of Mangle and therefore just as potentially dangerous.

Это очень интересная теория/анализ. Вы приводите много доказательств и ваши слова звучат убедительно. Конечно, грустно что мы не скоро узнаем правду, но это даёт нам повод продолжать размышлять и делать новые выводы.

in UCN one of tou chicas voicelines are "lets go somewhere private... so i can eat you!" meaning she does actually want to at least eat someone

You know what always pissed me off? The fact that FNAF4 wasted it's chance to show the bite of 87, and arbitrarily made it a SECOND BITE (technically happening before 87) for NO reason! Thanks Scott, thanks for never answering this big mystery for us...

I've actually been a Toy Chica accuser since FnaF 2 originally came out, due to the fact Toy Freddy/Bonnie have heavily obstructed jaws. Sure, they could _absolutely_ rip your face up but they'd never be able to chomp down on a skull hard enough to remove part of your brain, but Toy Chica (and Mangle, of course) absolutely have that capability.

Here’s why I think it can be withered foxy, If the withereds can walk around during the night then who’s saying the parts and service room didn’t have its door left open by accident and foxy snuck in and jumped him

5:15 I like how when phone guy says stare toy bonnie immediately opens their eyes

I personally think it's Toy Chica. She can remove her beak so the endo teeth, the ones that would actually deal damage (A sword made out of plastic sucks compared to actual metal.) so it would make less sense for somebody like Toy Freddy with their big snouts to be able to deal enough damage to straight up remove a frontal jaw. This is also why I don't think Mangle could've done it, she has the most amount of plastic teeth so her endo teeth would be the least exposed. Also, Mangle gets tore apart everyday. Her jaw would be quite bad. The kids have to had messed with her head since one of her eyes are messed up. Toy Chica has A. Easy access to actually sharp teeth B. The easiest place to bite people, most people would be at the stage. C. A jaw joint that hasn't been beaten up. These points are why I think Toy Chica did it.

Funny's line ever "the act of retribution that is the bite of 87."

I always believe it was Mangle. As you stated it is kinda impossible for Foxy or Freddy to be ones since they were locked away in Parts and Service during the day. The other Toys I don't think would really have caused the bite. Plus Toy Chica's line could be referring to how she kills the Night Guard. With Mangle being most likely as stated she would have a reason to cause the bite since she was abused so much would most likely hates all humans espically kids. Poor Mangle. She probably only wanted to make children happy at first. (Yes I see Mangle as Female don't argue with me with that.)

Dang it, I really thought it was the paper pals...😔😔

Dang, I was almost 100% sure it was caused by the desk fan.

"i have a slightly shorter video for you today" *looks at length* *34 minutes* SLIGHTLY SHORTER YOU SAY? tho seriously I'm glad you're making long uploading they are really good.

i love that half of this video is just him repeating things

I usually assume that Mangle did the bite, but one fact always bothered me about that assumption. The bite is said to be the explicit reason that the animatronics cant walk around during the day, which implies that the incident came about due to a roaming animatronic. Was mangle able to walk around? she seems like she was kept to the kids cove exclusively, and even if mangle did the bite, that would most likely be seen as a mangle-only problem, resulting in only her being scrapped, since she's the most unstable. there would be no good reason to throw out the other toys.

I think it’s toy chica, due to the fact that she loses her beak all the time and she has the voice line Where’s my beak? Lodged in your forehead of course.

5:11 The timing on that last word was impressive

The bite of 83 wouldn't have happened if the crying child wasn't crying because his tears set off the springlocks and chomp bye bye

You really don't have to explain that the puppet pals can't bite but I do love how you included them in the video

"Its amazing that the human body can live without the frontal lobe" -Phone Guy

I can't believe that people sometimes confuse the bite of '83 and the bite of '87

Bro it's actually kinda cool how scott made phone guy die on night 4 as if he was telling you to give up. It's not gonna be easy to win. 😮😅

What I want to know is that when where the Toy Animatronics commissioned for use so we can properly clear out the old Freddy Fazbear animatronics.

I personally think that while the bite did a lot of damage, either phone guy was exaggerating when he said they lost their entire frontal lobe, or the frontal lobe was removed surgically after the event because it was too mangled. I mainly believe this because it would be very hard to have a broken robot bite someone with enough force to cut off their entire frontal lobe and preciously enough that it gets the entire lobe out seemingly without damaging other parts of the brain
