SPONGEBOB THEORY: The Flying Dutchman is a Roman Death Genie 

I like how casually you say that Garry is a 4th dimension alien or whatever like "yh it's the four one this week"

3:42 wait the Atlantians have an exposed brain under some kind of transparent dome. What if the Dutchman wasnt spooked by spongebob having shaved his head, but instead the Dutchman thought he was an Atlantian?

I wonder if Patchy the Pirate, The Flying Dutchman and Burger Beard are related somehow

I love how we are collectively casually insane at this chanell

I like how no one's talking about 17:01 "Until next Theorizer, I'm the time"

You forgot the flying dutchman crossed over with danny phantom and tried to use the ghost zone portal to revive himself as a full god

"Until next Theorizer, I'm the time." - The Theorizer, 2020 This is wonderful

A soul for 62 cents is a pretty good deal

I wonder what Mr. Krabs could have possibly done to get him to almost go to the deepest depths of the Underworld, and if it has something to do with both chum (which was part of the original Krabby Patty) and usually fake crab meat (which was part of the formula for the KP that was/is in Nickelodeon's website) containing fish parts.

The Perfume Department is the Macy's in the Burbank Town Center Mall in Burbank, California. It's just down the street from the Nickelodeon Studio. I remember walking that very store when they were recording that B-Roll footage.

I think the fact that the flying dutchman Has a ship and clearly Shows some Kind of connection between souls and money suggests that He is Charon, the greek god who carries the souls of the dead across the river styx in exchange for gold

Wait. The flying Dutchman died 5000 years ago. But the photo of his body is in colour, and shows him in a modern store, completely unrotted. So. Spongebob takes place 5000 years into the future?

"Sells spongebobs soul for 62 cents" My god the writing for this show was brilliant.

Selling a Soul for 62 cents. Mr. Krabs is more evil than The Flying Dutchman

I've heard that the Shanghaied episode was originally a special where Patchy the Pirate hosted a contest on how that episode would end based on who got the last wish, based on fan votes. SpongeBob obviously was the winner. How Patrick and Squidward's endings ended had the trio getting eaten by the Dutchman, due to Patrick wishing for gum or Squidward wished he, SpongeBob and Patrick never met. The special was later turned into an 11 minute episode an the original special was never aired again. But it does appear on the first 100 episodes DVD box set. Anyways, good luck with the Penguins of Madagascar analysis, make sure you can watch every episode because if your using Hulu last I checked not every episode was on it, so make sure you check the list of episodes to keep track.

It's awesome how in every video you somehow use a manner which is simultaneously sarcastic but serious and keeps me wondering how literal you're being about this, it's really entertaining.

Why would he send them to Davy Jones locker if they’re already underwater

I've been wondering about Squilliam Fancypants for some reason. He's only been in a few episodes, but in all of them he's only there to belittle Squidward in some way. This guy is supposed to be rich and famous, but he would take the time and effort to put down someone who he claims is inferior? Why? Also, has anyone noticed that Squidward's music playing was VASTLY different in the end of the Bubble Stand episode? How, normally, he's horrible; but it was just... so much... better (for lack of better words) before his giant bubble popped and caused his house to fall? Why? HOW? If his music is CAPABLE of being better than "nails on chalkboard" bad, why doesn't he play better ALL THE TIME? Is it because he's normally in a negative mood? I heard his mood is connected to his music, so... could that be it? Could Squilliam be JEALOUS of Squidward's music when the guy is happy? Is that why, whenever he showed up, it was to try to make Squidward feel bad? So Squidward couldn't play at his best? If, for whatever reason, I ended up rich and famous, I wouldn't waste time going around and making people I knew feel bad. ... just an idea that's been bugging me for a bit. If you want to try it out though, thanks ahead of time.

I mean, it seems like he’s just a ghost, so idk how the whole mermaid/Roman god thing fits in but…

12:11 they really put a hanging body in the show. I know it’s from a hook it’s just the thought they put that in there is a bit funny

I do have a problem with this, oddly enough we never hear anything about the flying Dutchman being a god while Neptune is technically just poseidon with a different coat of paint. But I don't think the flying Dutchman is Pluto himself but is instead Charon who brings the souls of those who passed away to the underworld. And there is more grounding in this then that he's Neptune's oldest brother, oddly enough I don't recall the two ever even calling each other out for being related the two don't even acknowledge one another. I also find it strange that a ghost like the flying Dutchman would gain god like powers after his death supposedly thousands of years ago, Charon would be a better pick for the Dutchman's true form than as the Roman god of the underworld.

The Flying Dutchman is either a god, fallen or regular or he’s a djinn. A djinn is pretty much just a more powerful genie and like to twist wishes

I kinda now want a theory on how spongebob is secretly a rich important person, the amount of money spongebob has is a little too much for a minimum wage worker.

I love how this show is like twenty years old and we're still speculating. What a work of art you know?

This is an amazing video. Can you make theory about Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated? That would be amazing as that show has many secret mysteries and stories.

"Until the next theorizer, I'm the time" is the best phrase I've ever heard really matches the type of theories you make cx

The best treasure a pirate can give you: *Plastic*

RIP Davy Jones. The Monkees were great

Suddenly the "when worlds collide" song Parchy sings seems so much deeper. . When worlds collide... You can run... (Cavey) ...But no can hide! (Robot) When worlds collide You'll laugh so hard you'll swear you've died When worlds collide Hold my hand and I'll be your guide When worlds collide Buckle... buckle... Buckle up for the sweetest ride And prepare to have your mind blown wide When worlds collide (Cavey) When worlds collide it's a curious thing Bet you've never heard a robot and a caveman sing In his metal chest are some working parts How is that different from by beating heart? (Robot) I'm from the furture... (Cavey) ...And I'm from the past (Robot) But that doesn't mean this friendship wasn't built to last (Cavey) He was made in a lab and I was born in a cave So let me hear you holler for this inter-era rave! (Robot) You... you... you can run... (Cavey) But no can hide! (Robot) When... when worlds collide When... when worlds collide

I just realized, the "cyclops" from the spongebob movie has a strange, green glow emanating from the lens of it's helmet, and we never see a air tube running into it's helmet, this could mean the "cyclops" could be haunted and/or undead. Or perhaps he could be the dutchman himself, after all, the dutchman does seem to take the form of long dead seafarers, the "cyclops" likes to torment sea life and we know the dutchman does have the ability to transverse into the live action world, case and point the perfume department. On that note, perhaps Davy Jones isn't the dutchman himself, but a conduit for possession for the malevolent spirit of the dutchman.

i never thought the Dutchman had any skeletons in his closet, well besides Davy Jones. no wait, he's in a locker, my bad.

Love how dark SpongeBob is compared to what I remember it being, it’s pretty much a Lovecraft novel animated

When The theorizer uploads: The return of the king.

I'm calling it now Davy Jones is ghost of Captain Crunch.

Hey Theorizer, I have an idea for a theory. Although the Pixar theory is debatable true, Ratatouille and The Incredibles canonically take place in the Same universe, as Bomb Voyage is in a newspaper and seen performing Could the thumb guy or the other murderer chefs perhaps be supers? Food for thought (pun semi-intended) Can people like this comment so he can see? I don't really care about the publicity but I DO want him to entertain this idea. This was copy pasted from the Total Drama video so if you saw this already thank you

Yesterday the Spongebob Instagram account posted a "Bikini Bottom Mysteries" video covering the Flying Dutchman. It may just be a short bonus video made for casual Instagram viewers, but we all know how far the Theorizer is willing to go for a good theory. I hope this is useful!

“Until next Theorizer I’m the time”. Oh boy, he’s losing it.

3:33 Anyone else realize Squidward only has 2 legs here?

Could the next spongebob dissection video be about Mermaid man, he goes crazy over EEEEEEEVILL, and forgets about stuff.

Can we talk more about the Parfum Store? This was one the funniest moments of my childhood

Honestly man, your dialogue is getting to be pretty damn funny lol. That ending had me dying 😂

I think that Davy Jones resembles Plotu more, as the "lord" of hell (Davy Jones's locker), and the Flying Dutchman is more akin to Thanatos, Pluto's servant, because Pluto wasn't the one who reaped mortal souls of dying people, Thanatos was.

“So Gary the snail is a 4th dimensional alien God” I mean, I saw the video and I agree, but that still cracks me up for some reason.

Spongebob isn’t just based in Roman mythology. King Neptune and Poseidon both appear as separate characters.

You can tell this was made during The Theorizer's Mort era. It has that destinct style of writing and analysis as Mort part 1-6.

This is the guy who creates the lore to every single game you’ve ever played

8:15 “Krabs implies he sold his soul to other entities before” can be used towards the television theory, since it can imply that krabs sold his soul to the film cast, since he has a room above the krusty krab that monitors everyones house and when the boom and camera mine were there, they fled

Wow I didnt realize that the show spongebob is much much more complex and dark that the first impression everyone gets

You didn't mention that in the episode where the Dutchman grants wishes, he actually interacts with our dimension where people from our dimension vote on the outcome of the episode.

The insanity, I live for It. It's so exhilarating. *Super villain laugh*

Is there a theory on the episode where Neptune's moon and sun come out and transform them into real fish?

I always thought the "the robots are taking over the world.. our world" line was hilarious just because mini me was like robots can't go in water that's why they're scared now XD

Yay! You're still doing Spongebob theories! Love your intro.

*Puts soul on table* Gamestop employee: *_Best I can give you is 62 cents._*

“Patrick to interchangeable to be self tormented ends up tormenting the system itself” 💀💀💀

The 9:19 sentence, "Davy Jones is 3-dimensional in his base form" got me LOL

when I was young it took me a long time to recognize the dutch part of the flying dutchman name in context I am dutch and here he was named vliegende Hollander worst I knew already knew the word Hollander at that time I just couldn't link it

Here's a wrinkle, in actual maritime lore, the Flying Dutchman is the SHIP not the master (Captain) of the vessel. The ship grabs a crew and makes it part of it permanently. (I work in maritime and this tale is pretty universal with sailors across the world in some form) What if the Dutchman is a personification of the ship? It takes a different soul when it no longer wants the current captain and sees a new one it wants. The soul takes the memories of the vessel which would bungle its own memories. This would explain a lot of which follows. And why the other ghost crew looked different, they weren't part of the vessel, they were just haunting a vessel. Think of the SpongeBob Flying Dutchman Ghost like the characters in Arpeggio of Blue Steel anime.

It is October, I am dressed up as the Flying Dutchman in 2020 for cosplaying and entertainment.

When you did the gary theory before the into how could you say that he create life 🤔

I like how he came to a random conclusion then worked on it from there forward instead of explaining how it's possible

Man you really should have 1mill already like wow, things like your theory movies,(Coralie is my favorite) should have a lot more people waching , you really have a way of keeping us waching

Could he be related to the pirates who raised Mr. Crabs.

I truly love these Spongebob theories, but I find more and more often ending the video with the sound of bees buzzing in my head as I try to process what I’ve just witnessed 😂

Have you watched Rocko’s Modern life or Camp Lazlo?

How about an episode on how Plankton was able to *split an atom with his bare hands and surviving a nuclear blast*

I’m delivering food right now and I’m gonna crash if I try to understand what he’s saying

I think the flying dutchman is a real ghost (in the shows actual universe) the idea with legendary powerful ghosts or spirits etc is that the more people pay attention to them and fear them the more powerful they get until they turn into something as real and powerful as Freddie Krueger. This is proven by the flying Dutchman becoming powerless after people stopped being afraid of him. But I think the TV show theory works with this character.... the humans filming bikini bottom are witnessing this ghost... feeding the spirit even more whenever he's the center of an episode but the same viewers grow to like him instead of fear him... causing some big fluctuations in how scary or powerful he actually is.

The ad I got mentioned "a veteran who honorably served" I know the flying dutchman was a pirate but I was looking at him as the ad said that and I can't accept anything else now. He was a veteran who went crazy stole a ship and became a pirate.

You are my literal favorite RU-vidr

I always wanted to have a real life pirate ship. Or just any old school wooden sail ship. I think they look so kool.

You my good sir are the definition of an over thinker but I’ve watched many of your videos, it’s good background noise, even if a bit ... out there. Love it tho keep up the good work mr. Theorizer!

Pretty interesting! Thanks for uploading!

When I saw the thumbnail, I immediately got excited because I knew he would have to explain how singer Davy Jones fits in the Spongebob deity hierarchy.

Hey, I see you there using your Mort Song! 😉 Flows really well with the video. Also, I've always had this strange feeling that Patchy and the Flying Dutchman are one in the same. What evidence do I have? Not sure, other than they both have a pointy beard, and sound similar, and are both pirates. They both seem to go into these mini life crisis when things are downhill. Hate to get spooky here, but perhaps Patchy got sick of Potty's shenanigans, and sold his soul to the actual Davy Jones? I still think that it is hilarious that the singer Davy Jones rules Hell. But could this be why Patchy does not appear in later seasons? I'm sure you might be thinking the same thing, but this is all I have for now.

Would have been cool if they used the same Davy Jones as the one in Pirates of the Caribbean just to add to it. You should compare the two, see what matches etc. To dissect the one seen in Spongebob.

I feel like listening to you when game theory isnt crazy enough. you balance my theorizing brain i have to say thanks for makin me smile.

I love your videos. I never would think to dissect my childhood shows and movies like you do and I thank you 😊 please don't stop

At the end, he said "Until next Theorizer, I'm the time"

There’s also a statement on the official Spongebob Fandom that the Flying Dutchman is relative to the power of King Neptune so you could use that to indicate that they are similar beings

Jo jo, the french narrator is a marine biologist thats filming this whole tv show and then he realises the 2,5 Dimensional anomaly that accured after the atomic bomb tests and he trys to get more people involved to analyse this anomaly

Just FYI this video isn't in the Spongebob theories playlist ^_^, great stuff keep up the good work!

I think a lot of the numbers the Flying Dutchman throws out are hyperbolic.

Djinn perhaps ? The evil version of a genie (I believe) there's a movie that was supposed to be a horror but made me laugh.

I just wondered what if one of the forms Dutchman takes (if he is Hades) when attempting to scare Spongebob in his living room being his form at 7:27 is his true appearance that is also muscular, huge, and not transparent like King Neptune.

According to maritime superstitions, The Flying Dutchman was a cursed ghost ship said to portend doom to all who saw it. The most common legend goes that the captain of the Dutch ship, his name varies but the most common is William Van der Decken, was sailing around The Cape of Good Hope, one of the most dangerous capes/shipping routes on the ocean. When a storm comes, he refuses the begging of his crew to turn back to stop, and locks them all below deck so that he can keep going. This selfish decision resulted in the death of himself, and the entire crew, and he was cursed to forever sail the seas alone. Though some versions include him having a crew. The name Davy Jones’ Locker is believed by some to be a reference to the Biblical Jonah, with the whale, and would be a sailor’s afterlife, limbo, or hell. It all depends on the version of the legend. Though, with the multiple version of Davy Jones and Neptune, perhaps they are all one and the same type of being, but have the power to appear in different forms.

Wait... If the Dutchman is actually Pluto/Hades, then do we ever see Persephone, or whoever her counterpart is in Roman mythology?

Wow Phantom Hourglass music really fits this theory.

These theories give me a feeling that I can only imagine as akin to what being high must feel like

He HAS to be a time traveler as his beard apparently takes a thousand years to grow and does so in only several months. Also he claims he's never met Mr. Krabs, but does so AFTER he's already contacted him several times.

"The Leeda Leeda Leeda Lee episode" you said 😂🤣

It's not boring yo its really interesting to hear yo theories

I just realized he said “until next Theorizer, I’m the time.” XD

The way he says that Gary is a forth dimensional god so casually *it scares me*

O_O bruhhhhh this show got soooo much darker with that theory. I can’t wait to hear your future theories.

One issue with the god idea is that neither Hades nor Pluto are evil which the Flying Dutchman is.

There’s something I’m not quite getting here: what does he mean when he says Gary’s essence is on an even playing field with his body so his powers are temporarily neutralized?

Oh my god, you said the line🤣 I need to remember the actual title now

Loving This Dark Theories 😍

if he hasn't tied his shoes in 5000 years then he has velcro
