I felt bad for Tomothy Young. He is probably the only one I believed had genuine remorse to what he had done. Not just in the trap but once he hit that boy, his expression alone screams "Oh my god what have I done?' You could tell he was not a bad guy. He made a mistake, Jeff was eaten away by hate and revenge and it blinded him. Felt bad for them both to be fair.

[@Minetendo_Fan]

Jeff may not have experienced any physical pain, but he lost so much

[@KnightOfAwesometon]

Fun fact about the Pig Vat trap: While the pigs themselves were made of foam, rubber, and latex, the maggots were real, alive, and sterilised. That much is obvious, but what's less obvious is that each individual maggot had to be returned to the provider upon completion of the scene.

[@WillieManga]

That's a weird thing to wanna keep, but I suppose they have reasons.

[@ChristianPinnock-u5c]

Someone threw up in the theatre right next to ME

[@Panda72021]

Also...How does one go about sterilizing a maggot? Okay, for anybody that cares... I looked it up, and apparently, you clean the outer surface of the fly eggs and you let them hatch in a sterile environment, which produces clean maggots. Didn't realize that was gonna be a thing I ever learned about, but there ya go.

[@Panda72021]

@@WillieManga sterile maggots are sometimes used in wound cleaning, because they only eat dead tissue, leaving the healthy tissue behind. So maybe that person was originally breeding/sterilizing them for medical use.

[@Charles.II_of_England]

@@Panda72021 how the hell do you clean a fly egg properly and without damaging it? that's crazy, kudos to them.

[@darthmeticulous6901]

I feel like the Classroom Trap should have been in the video. That one was a guaranteed death in multiple ways. Even without Amanda welding the door shut… there’s the chain hooked into the jaw… not removable without losing the jaw, which is death via blood loss. Even if there wasn’t one in the jaw, tearing out the ones in the Achilles Tendons would render him unable to walk, so he would fall down and then die from the explosion. But even if none of the chains were hooked into vital areas and the door wasn’t welded shut, he still had to rip out 11 chains, which would more than likely still result in death by blood loss from all the wounds combined. To me, the Classroom Trap was the most unwinnable trap because even without the welded door, there was no way of surviving it based on how it was intended to be beaten. Literally the only way to possibly survive it is included in this channel’s Saw 3 video, but even that would require the person to somehow quickly piece together how the bomb works, and the timer was only around 90 seconds. So even that is unlikely to happen, making it an even stronger case that the Classroom Trap should have been included here.

[@Mike1064ab]

Obviously by then John Kramer aka Jigsaw was unaware she made a trap like that or unable to do anything about it because he definitely would not have approved of that one since he always seemed to want people to have a chance to learn from their mistakes and live even if they were horribly mutilated as a result since that’s what a lot of these traps would do even if you survived them.

[@aplive58]

It surprises me that it never gets mentioned in any videos. Perhaps because it isn't popular. It's the hardest trap for me to watch personally. The image of the dude chained up is disturbing enough, then when I consider how the Achilles's Heel and jaw are impossible to escape and the doors are welded shut, it was TORTURE.

[@darthmeticulous6901]

@@aplive58 The Rack is the one that’s hardest for me to watch because I’ve broken both an ankle and a shin.

[@ryanhutchinson4467]

The Achilles tendons get me every time. It’s so painful to watch, and just thinking about it makes me shudder. You’re right about it being unbeatable, since ripping out the Achilles tendons would certainly result in death due to blood loss. There are two major arteries located there on each leg, and so you’d bleed out in a matter of seconds.

[@aplive58]

@@darthmeticulous6901 The Rack will always be a tried-and-true answer to the worst fates suffered in the Saw series, and for good reason. The mechanism of injury in the movie ought to be worse than anything you experienced, just given how the structures proximal are stably locked in a static position. It's hard to emulate such injuries in nature.

[@marveler8994]

Imo the Brazen Bull trap is the most evil, in the movie it had both the husband and the wife suffer, but the one who suffers the most had nothing to do with Jigsaw

[@aplive58]

Classroom trap deserves a mention imo, as another user mentioned. Extremely disturbing visually, coupled with the chains through the Achilles's heel and the jaw and the doors welded shut. Torturous way to go. Surprised at how unrecognized it goes. In terms of how evil the traps are, I only put the Angel Trap and the Pendulum Trap above it because you would beat them if they weren't rigged, so you would have to comes to term with the deceit before you die.

Been getting into the saw franchise recently because i wanted to see saw X, and i’ve been bingeing all your saw videos too. Love them all! Also heavily agree with your point on the glass coffin, there’s no way in HELL that even if Strahm had done everything perfectly and stayed in that coffin, surviving the walls, that Hoffman would ever let him out alive.

What sets me off the most about any and all saw movies is the fact that, No Matter how good a Person you are, no matter how much you and jigsaw actually agree or whatever... You still have no chance to prevent ending in his games. Like, he literally snatched people whose only "misdoing" it was to love the wrong person, or life the wrong lifestyle etc. In saw 3d the girlfriend had LITERALLY done nothing wrong and was still murdered in the most disgusting way So no matter what you do, you can never rule out that john/amanda/hoffmann is gonna take you

[@gardenburgerr]

The needle pit scene always made me angry because technically Amanda succeeded. She got the key in time, it was Xavier that couldn’t put the key in the lock for some reason. Amanda did everything right (Albeit she was in on John’s plan) and still “failed” that trap.

Just in case anyone’s wondering why Seth Baxter ended up in the pendulum trap in Saw 5, here you go! He was the one who killed Mark Hoffman’s sister, Angelina. In a flashback, you’ll see her body being found and the cause of death was her throat being slit! He was so hurt when he found her body What really made Hoffman mad was that Seth only served 5 years out of his original sentence for 25 to life for her murder and got let out because of a technicality! Angelina was the only family Hoffman had left, so he put Seth in the trap as revenge for his sister’s demise!

1:32 Nah dude, we feel pain through our nerves and while I imagine twisting/tearing our limbs is pretty painfull the damage to the nerves is somewhat limited. Maximum pain would be targeting the nerves themselves, ideally all over the body, with some sort of chemical that makes those nerves fire like crazy. Not sure if that ever happened in Saw but I'm willing to bet there were more painful traps, even if they did less damage.

[@GooberPrime]

[@TMikrutMusic]

I wish “Saw Mythbusters” could be a thing safely, but that’s not realistic for obvious reasons…. Sometimes the victims just die immediately from injuries that are brutal but don’t seem instantly fatal. Like Ivan in Saw 4… all of his limbs get ripped off and he’d definitely bleed out fast, but he goes limp right away. Would be super interesting to have someone like a trauma surgeon explain the realism behind the injuries/reactions

[@Shadowcat753]

Most Evil trap Award to me (outside of rigged traps) has to be a tie with the Electric Bathtub from Saw 5 vs. the Shotgun Carrousel from Saw 6. First, as someone that has Epilepsy (getting that in my mid-20s), all electric traps touch a nerve for me here. Part of what makes this trap evil is exactly how only one person can be turned into a human conduction device while alive. I know the person killed during this trap gets killed with one stab, but that's lucky for her! If she had been alive while stuck in that bathtub, talk about full-body, constant, full-brain pain until the right brain bits shut down!! As for the Shotgun Carrousel, John's basically making Easton do exactly what he did to random patients, except Easton has worked with every single one of these people. Sure, I hate the job in mind that literally every single one of them had, but Easton's the guy making the ultimate "Yes or No" on people's survival with healthcare. Those folks are just there for the paychecks, and likely, basic medical benefits for themselves and their families (one of the women that survived mentioned her kids, so we have to persume that's likely a similar enough situation for at least one other victim of this trap). As a cashier at a car dealership currently, if some angry serial killer tied me to some trap due to what my boss did, I'd certainly have a similar reaction to the last guy killed by the device if my boss decided, "No, I want these other people to live instead".

[@BmanTheChamp]

If I had to choose I'd say that the Shotgun Carousel was worse, because the bathtub wasn't meant for one person, it was meant for all 5. The idea was if they had listened to Jigsaw and done the opposite of their natural instincts, then they all would have suffered a small shock. The Shotgun Carousel, 4 people were going to die regardless.

[@Shadowcat753]

@@BmanTheChamp Fair point there, but Jigsaw made it so all the traps in Saw 5 could be done either via killing people or by all working together, since he was pretty sure that all the victims would stick with their instincts and be utterly selfish. And the worst thing is that he was actually right about that until the last trap! With the Shotgun Carousel, 4 people die either way.

[@Shadowcat753]

The dact that someof the electric-based parts of the Electric-bathtub trap shows if they take the "not working together route" Jigsaw assumed this was actually more likely overall too.

[@zombieponcho]

I will be very sad if the twist in saw x isn't that John has a twin brother, who didn't see eye to eye with him until he was in his shoes, with a terminal illness, and now he's continuing his work.
