    The Grinch is a holiday classic. Through all the versions that have been made, one thing remains consistent. The Grinch, overcome by holiday cheer, has a change of heart... a BIG change. A 3 size difference, in fact. That can't be healthy! Today Loyal Theorists, we are giving the Grinch a check up to see if he should even be ALIVE at the end of this movie!

    Mat, You put joy in my life. At the end of an hard day, having a new theory , whether game or film , is like a mini Christmas 🎄. It really soothes my soul. My father passed 2 weeks ago and I couldn’t tell you enough how these small moments of joy have made a difference. Thank you Mat.

    Can confirm the whole silent heart attack thing. When my dad had his fatal heart attack last year his only symptom was fatigue for three days. He just thought the heat had gotten to him since we had a heatwave of 115° a couple weeks prior he didn't realize something was actually truly wrong until he was slipping into cardiac arrest.

    I have CFS and I was just on a 2am spree of watching film theories I haven’t seen yet since I can’t sleep and I was actually shocked when you mentioned CFS. CFS doesn’t get talked about a lot and we’re constantly dismissed by medical professionals as just depressed or stressed out or hysterical, so it made me smile when I heard you factually talking about it. You seem to understand it better than literally every doctor I’ve seen. I was kind of like the grinch at first, struggled with walking, noise, light, lots of people, breathing, heart rate, all of that, and now it’s at the point that I can only get around in a power chair and I can’t do anything independently anymore. It’s just nice to see it being recognised as a real thing and a possible reason behind someone being a bit of a ‘grinch,’ when he’s actually been going through it all along. Thanks for being great as always MatPat x

    I originally thought that the Grinch had PTSD.
    When watching the Grinch re-boot I noticed that it gives a flashback of when the grinch was a child, this showed him being neglected by The Who’s on Christmas Day, and and also being made fun of by who children. I think that, all the neglect he got at such a young age made him develop a dislike for Christmas.
    Also I can I just point out how well the re-boot represents an anxiety attack in public. It was so well done and it touched my heart so much I almost started to cry in the theater.
    Thank you for reading this comrade.

    CHRISTMAS THEORY IDEA:

    I kinda figure it is, because of bioluminescence, but what would he use it for? What did his parents suffer through (plus many a generation before them) that cause their son to have a nose that glows? Bioluminescence, sure, but WHY? The other reindeer freak out when they see him, so it’s not for attracting mates. It’s not for defense as it lures the abominable to him all the time. It’s not to attract food because he’s a herbivore!

      Pah. Only saw the Carrey movie, did you? In the book and the original TV special, the Whos already KNEW this. In fact, the realization is what triggered the change. When the Grinch had all the presents, feasts, and decorations at the top of the mountain, he heard the Whos down in Whoville, and they were not lamenting the theft--they were gathered around the town square, holding hands, singing, welcoming Christmas just as they would have had there been presents. After realizing that Christmas "came without presents. It came without tags It came without packages, boxes, or bags." And then the Grinch realized something he hadn't before, something the Whos knew all along: "Christmas didn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, he thought, means a little bit more."

    • @morganyoung3557

      Le Bron James that is only a plot point in the Jim Carrey version, in the book and animated short it is strongly implied that the Whos already know that Christmas is more than just presents and other material items. The Grinch has his redemption because he realizes that he can’t break their spirit because they already believe that Christmas is more than the items that the Grinch stole which was why in those versions they still sing their song even though all of them have been robbed.

      they've been doing that for quite a well.

    In 2019 I was unemployed and so stressed out i had a mini stroke and fell face first on my glasses and broke them. I had thought I had a hypoglycemic episode but when I went to urgent care in 2020 I offhandedly mention the episode which had only been 2 months prior and he (the doctor assigned to me) looked at me funny. Come to find out I had a mini stroke at 25 and now I have to actively avoid stress which is in fact very stressful 😅
