Mr. Basic is Fake Peppino.
- Who knows if he can clone himself?
Mr. Basic is Sander Cohen
At some point Cohen originally massacred food products in the name of art instead of people.- His egg throwing teleportation powers might be some kind of plasmid.
The channel is an attempt to warn us about something.
Mr. Basic is a well-meaning guy driven insane by knowing the horrific, possibly 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.- The Eldritch Abomination 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, creepy children's toy.
- Maybe the Eldritch Abomination mutates people so much that they can only eat the recipes that he knows.
- This Idea is actually presented in Face Reveal
by Michael as a precaution against computers becoming too self reliant. This ends up not being true, and Michael was a part of the joke reveal.
The channel is an alien attempt at communication.
On the flipside, Mr. Basic may be the 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.- Maybe the recipes are actual recipes from where he comes from?
Mr. Basic is a chicken
That's where he get all those eggs.As most YouTubers noted, You Suck at Cooking is quite similar to HowToBasic except with less insanity, both having nameless, faceless hosts. Some commenters oh the former's channel even claim that 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. Mr. Basic is possessed by a demon.
No, 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!' Mr. Basic is an Amazon
It all makes sense now...He constantly seems to change houses to escape the Peston Service
Eggs because protein.
He's seemingly constantly naked because of an offscreen transformation
He'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.
He's seemingly superhuman.
and GOD HELP US if he uses a driver.
