I don't enjoy a scary puppet on a bike, nor do I enjoy a scary psychotic killer with
a terminal illness hell bent on social revenge.
For these reasons, I am pretty sure myself and fictional Saw character, Jigsaw, would
not get along.
Luckily he isn't real….or isn't he?
Hello and welcome back to a spooktacular episode of Life's Biggest Questions where we are
celebrating the scariest time of the year with a few themed questions for you.
I am Rebecca Felgate and today we are asking What if Jigsaw was real?
Before we play a little game, I just want to remind you guys that we have a Patreon
– so if you want to check out what supporting this channel can get you in benefits then
I'll leave a link to that in the description box below.
Okay, do you want to play a game?
No Jigsaw…I don't….but for the sake of this video…lets.
Jigsaw refers to a serial killer who tests victims in deadly scenarios, or games, as
he would call them, and if the fail, he carves jigsaw shapes into their flesh.
The man behind the original murder spree was fictional character, John Kramer, a civil
engineer diagnosed with terminal cancer, which somehow drives him to kill people he doesn't
think appreciates life.
Then, after the cancer takes hold of him, copycats who consider themselves apprentices
start popping up.
So…what if this was all real?
So actually, in a few cases of life imitating art, there have been some sickos inspired
by the Saw movies who have drawn inspiration from the franchise, deciding to enact their
own brutal killings.
In 2013 Matthew Tinling mimicked scenes from Saw 6 when he killed Richard Hamilton at a
homeless hostel in London.
He tried to severe Hamilton's spinal cord, as he had seen in Saw.
This nasty trick has earned him 30 years in prison.
In 2009, a mother from Salt lake City turned her child into the police as she heard him
and his friends plotting to kill two students and a police officer in a game like death
play scenario.
They had even purchased cameras to record the murders and when questioned, they said
they wanted to harm people that had harmed others.
This is just two of dozens of examples of copycats inspired by the fiction of Jigsaw,
bringing him to life through their actions.
But, what if the character himself was real all along?
Let's have a little look at the Jig Saw job description; He would require exceptional
skills in subterfuge, planning, building and evading the police.
He would also need a willingness to travel.
People would probably notice that members of society went missing around the same time
as one another and start suspecting a serial killer, which means he would constantly have
to change the locations of his murders.
He also would have to have a lot of patience and a skilful mind for planning events.
Furthermore, he would also have to not be afraid to get his hands dirty.
Cleaning up all of that post murder scene must be a bit of a nightmare, I don't know
if you have seen the saw movies but, blimey, what an absolute mess.
It is all very well murdering someone with a bear trap, reverse bear trap, constructing
a pit of needles, putrid pig guts pool, building some limb twister machine….
The end result is pretty messy.
Jigsaw would need a strong stomach.
Okay, but jokes aside, historically, there have been men, and women, like Jigsaw out
there, and there still are… serial killers, many of which believe they are enacting their
own form of justice.
In 2006, Steven Wright served as a modern day Jack the Ripper as he murdered 5 women
in the sleepy town of Ipswich, England.
There is currently an unknown killer murdering people along the so called highway of tears
in Canada, there is the Long Island serial killer, the Mexican Ripper a killer on the
loose in South Africa targeting gay men….
The list of those we know about goes on, and then of course there is those we don't know
about.
Perhaps what makes Saw such a scary and compelling, *COUGH* if at times a little ridiculous* franchise,
is because we all know that dark people like Jigsaw are out there and we don't want them
to take issue with us.
However it is important to note that, despite the real life existence of people like jigsaw,
for every sick twisted individual, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of good people
who act within the law to bring these people to justice.
In other words, any real life Jigsaws days are numbered.
Spooky spooky Halloween….. don't worry….
Jigsaw isn't real… but other bad people are…but what can you do…other than just
be safe and aware and good…….
A little Halloween ditty for you there.
