Go To

1[[WMG:Mr. Basic is [[VideoGame/PizzaTower Fake Peppino]].]]
2* Who knows if he can clone himself?
3
4[[WMG: Mr. Basic is [[VideoGame/BioShock1 Sander Cohen]]]]
5At some point Cohen originally massacred food products in the name of art instead of people.
6* His egg throwing teleportation powers might be some kind of plasmid.
7
8[[WMG: The channel is an attempt to warn us about something.]]
9Mr. Basic is a well-meaning guy driven insane by knowing the horrific, possibly [[EldritchAbomination otherworldy]] fate our world is soon to face. His videos are a scattered, broken mind's attempt to warn the world, and having been driven mad leads to his frequent moments of falling into an egg-smashing frenzy.
10* The EldritchAbomination that drove him mad most likely takes the form of a teddy bear in the human world. Not only does he completely destroy a teddy bear in "How To Defend Yourself From A Bear Attack", but hey, [[NightmareFuel creepy children's toy.]]
11* Maybe the EldritchAbomination mutates people so much that they can only eat the recipes that he knows.
12* This Idea is actually presented in [[spoiler: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSXGagNzNLw Face Reveal]] by [[WebShow/VSauce Michael]] ]] as a precaution against [[AIIsACrapshoot computers becoming too self reliant]]. [[spoiler: This ends up not being true, and [[WebShow/VSauce Michael]] was a part of the joke reveal]].
13
14[[WMG: The channel is an alien attempt at communication.]]
15On the flipside, Mr. Basic may be the [[HumanoidAbomination otherworldly one]] himself, a creature with a human form (or, at least, human-looking limbs) making an earnest attempt at communication with the human race. This explains why his videos often contain at least a nominal hint of normality mixed in with the bizarreness.
16* Maybe the recipes are actual recipes from where he comes from?
17
18[[WMG: Mr. Basic is the chef from ''[[WebAnimation/AwesomeSeries Awesome]] [[VideoGame/MegaMan Man]]''.]]
19"''Take about five dozen eggs, start putting them in a bowl, mix the '''FUCK''' out of them, and what do you get? PENIS!''"
20
21[[WMG: Mr. Basic is a chicken]]
22That's where he get all those eggs.
23
24[[WMG: Mr. Basic is the mentally-challenged [[EvilTwin twin]]/[[LiteralSplitPersonality clone]] of the host of WebVideo/YouSuckAtCooking.]]
25As most [=YouTubers=] noted, WebVideo/YouSuckAtCooking is quite similar to WebVideo/HowToBasic except with less insanity, both having nameless, faceless hosts. Some commenters oh the former's channel even claim that [[JekyllAndHyde he is the latter in civil mode]]. However, as Mr Basic is Australian and the host of YSAC is (suspected to be) Canadian, this is close to impossible. Here is a more probable but insane theory about them both, though- They're two different people, but are closely related to each other. ''Really'' closely related.
26
27[[WMG: Mr. Basic is [[DemonicPossession possessed by a demon.]]]]
28No, really, his behaviour is chaotic, otherworldly, and destructive, he wears no clothes, he makes poor attempts at looking and acting like a normal human being, and he has a fixation for setting things on fire. It all adds up!'
29
30[[WMG: Mr. Basic is an [[Series/KamenRiderAmazons Amazon]]]]
31It all makes sense now...
32
33He constantly seems to change houses to escape the Peston Service
34
35Eggs because protein.
36
37He's seemingly constantly naked because of an offscreen transformation
38
39He's incredibly violent because he starts to awaken in all of his videos, and the things he cooks are the only thing that can keep him from going fully berserk.
40
41He's seemingly superhuman.
42
