Hey there chaps. (I can't believe some of you haven't subbed yet 😪😪)Thanks for stopping by and watching. It may not be good business these days but RUclips is still my platform and I will keep releasing here. I'm already halfway through another cartoon and have another instalment from my most popular series planned, written and storyboarded. If you're still watching then I'm still making them. If you want a bunch of extra stuff like unreleased stuff, forgotten videos, full soundtracks to all my cartoons then consider subscribing to my Patreon www.patreon.com/davidfirth - it keeps this as my job. Or grab something fun from my shop. saladfingersstore.com/ I have some really cool toys and tshirts and stuff.
damn, youve been my favorite animator for like 15 years. every time theres a new video, i have learned to never know what to expect. the last sock was amazing, and keeping up with your streams always inspires me. thanks for the crazy stuff youve put out the last 15 plus years, you still got some day 1 fans out here.
Loved it! Remarkable how chilling you can wield simplicity. Brilliant stuff as always. You don't happen to have any plans for a Spoilsbury Toastboy clock, do you? I've had them for over 15 years but my current ones are broken and I need replacements, you can't get them anymore :( .
you need a plastic hand... He actually did some work for the BBC, but this shit is not supposed to appeal to the average normie!!! You have to be a little sick in the head to be invested in his work!!
The soft tone of davids protagonists are always so calming but even more sinister. To the point simple phrases like "how dare you" are filled with tension of what will happen next
@@SirMorganD I meant as an experience, like i guess art is in the eye of the beholder. But this gives an uneasiness feel whilst still captivating. It's nothing like most horror or shock media of today.
I was half expecting something violent or gory to happen at some point, but somehow I knew that you wouldn't bring it to that place, and it fits. It's almost like there's this threat that things could go off the rails any minute, and the fact that they never do is really powerful and anxiety inducing. Loved it!
YES you described the tone of the video so well, I was gonna say the exact same thing! The tension is incredible, you’re just bracing yourself for when things go horribly wrong, but it doesn’t happen. Maybe it never will, but maybe it can.
I like it how the daughter asking for dinner talks with a mans voice! is plastic hand a way this man has to absolve himself from anything bad. Or is it a dig at former prime minister Edward Heath?
Two normal hands, and one made of plastic Flesh redundant, synthetic fantastic Behind the appendage, you're safe from sin Though a drop of guilt still seeps down within Blame the fingers, blame the palm Chin stays up, normal hands stay calm When you're caught, the flesh gets the chain You go away, plastic hand will remain
his older animations had a strong vibe of crude yet amazing well made style to them, but with time its grown into a more fine tuned version with the deeper facial features and better mic quality, this is insanely well made, keep up the great work david.
There's a mesmeric quality to all of your works that's taken me two decades to fully appreciate. The strange, sinister, yet all too human surroundscape has a way of distorting time. This video is only five minutes long, yet I feel like I've taken in an hour of heavy content. Kudos David, and I'm so glad to see you still making animation.
You know, something about David's creations, they always end somewhat empty and sad, that's what makes them extremely good and it shows the emptiness of his little world, good work David!
Thank you for making me more artisticly inclined by all of your amazing work across all media! I really appreciate all the memories over the years, never stop bringing joy an creative bizarreness into our lives!
For me, David Firth and Cyriak were the dawn of youtube animation. So glad you're still around! Plus the animation is getting better and better....you haven't lost the jarring chill at all from your videos.
Your art form is so odd but it just reels me in and I can't stop, the scene where he was moaning was very uncomfortable but the rest of the animation made up for it. Good work as always!
@@classica1fungus yeah, never said any opposite. We were merely making an observation regarding pleasure moaning bit (of this piece of art). Hey just got a nice title for a tune of mine: piece o' fart
Wow that was creepily amazing David. One of the last OG RUclipsrs still making new content to this day. Don’t let RUclips and their broken system and algorithms ruin your career. We must protect David Firth at all costs. Other than that bravo David and keep up the great work.
I hope you've joined his patreon and bought something from his merch store. That's the only thing that can help him financially to make his animations. If you have, good on you. Otherwise you're just commenting to get attention.
@@chadwickerman Commenting is engagement. Any kind of engagement on a RUclips video, whether it be liking or commenting, is helpful in boosting it. It’s not simply to “get attention.”
Absolutely beautiful as usual. Oddly liminal, extremely ambient. Always crude and absurd. I love this, I love you, I love plastic hand. If at all you make more Sock episodes, I am 1000000000% ready for more bizarre dream animations.
"Once sharp as a blade, now reduced a Limp Drip of Old Chicken Piss." I feel this way too often about myself, David. But im still gonna enjoy watching your newest videos!
His son at 3:50 looks an awful lot like the "Let the Suffering Begin" meme, character. I wonder if inspiration was drawn from that. Another classic as always, David.
Through many years of practice and effort I've managed to perfect my skill at dropping pints of lager onto the floor and usually, by the end of the night, I can actually do this without needing a plastic hand.
You will always have a special place in my heart for your work. Thank you so much! I will think about what plastic hand might symbolize tonight, like I did back in the day with all your other creations! :D
@@Herr.P Maybe we will find him in the NYC subway. I've never been to the London subway, myself, but I assume it's also a complex of alienated security staff and maniacs shitting in the shadows.
I love how you capture the cinematics of every video. the colors, sounds, and even just the unique premises. these twisted works are truly masterpieces
The little girls voice shocked me,I wasn't expecting that😅😅.. Sometimes I don't know if to laugh or cry at these,maybe I should do both,they are funny but thought provoking.. Love your work..stay safe & takecare✌🏼☮🌻💜🤘🏻😜✌🏼☮🌻💜🤘🏻😜
I try to take a year off from watching my favorite animators, so I was delighted to come back to a handful of videos from one of my top five favorites. But I am very disappointed to hear David censor himself, especially in such a dark and powerful scene. The modern internet environment has broken this genius of a human being, apparently scared to be subjected to "cancel culture" or just the inconsistent content flagging that this particular platform contains. Watch a dog after torture or person being mutilated in war is fine but you have to say "unalive yourself". We love you Mr. Firth, never stop being your absolute self.
It's like you never left, these cartoons make me feel completely uneasy while somehow also enveloping me in a warm, nostalgic hug. Thanks for another banger animation, man, no one makes them quite like you do ✌️
I like how everyone in this one is so considerate and respectful to this guy despite him rambling like a maniac and waving around his plastic hand

Any chance you’ll make another Spoilsbury Toast Boy episode?
hey man, i can’t afford to support you financially rn but i never watch your vids with adblock on if that makes up for it
Loved it! Remarkable how chilling you can wield simplicity. Brilliant stuff as always.
You don't happen to have any plans for a Spoilsbury Toastboy clock, do you? I've had them for over 15 years but my current ones are broken and I need replacements, you can't get them anymore :( .
“How dare you.”
*he said calmly.*
calmly with his wife beater on 🤣💀
I literally lost it when he started touching himself mocking the woman with the plastic hand.
My face during the scene :😬😕😐😐😐😐
David Firth is one of the few OGs from newgrounds that still pumps out good stuff and never disappoints.
And the only one who competes with the ominous and off-putting feeling of watching his videos is MeatCanyon.

It’s very nostalgic seeing David going back to this style of animation. Such fond memories of early RUclips.
Yes! Feels like I've been waiting for it forever.
Not even RUclips lol it was Newgrounds back then
I was watching Salad Fingers as a flash animation on somewhere...
I think it’s improved since then.
These "nostalgia" comments feel so patronizing lol
The soft tone of davids protagonists are always so calming but even more sinister. To the point simple phrases like "how dare you" are filled with tension of what will happen next
Ya know he is the main character but idk if I'd describe his as a "protagonist" lol
@@wyleFTW he's not really an antagonist either
@@wyleFTW he doesn't do anything bad tho
I read that right as that part played
@@wyleFTW I know it's a plastic hand but idk if I'd describe it as a synthetic appendage
The feeling that these animations give can't be explained. It's good and rewarding but at the same time it makes you think something is not right.
Yeah it’s like unsettling but also nice at the same time
Edit: you can call it uncanny
It's like watching a dream sequence unfold
Oh you think something is not right? What give it away? The guy talking with the plastic hand?

Omg I felt the same! You described the feeling perfectly!
@@The_Queen_Chrysaliswell… that’s true for some of his work haha.
The voice acting is phenomenal as always. I love how everyone speaks so gently, it's calming yet off putting at the same time.
It's an aggressive... er... threatening calmness. Really puts me on edge.

2:15 MAN that was hard to watch. I cringed so bad
Feels Weird That This Was 6 Months Ago And Not 11 Years Ago. It’s amazing how consistent David is with his style throughout the years (decades).
I actually have always found comfort in your animation and voice acting styles. Thanks for the years of unsettling creations!
Love the daughter's voice, another slapper from a banging animator! Keep being you!
Every time I think I'm used to David Firth's humor I'm immediately proven wrong and creeped out all over again.
