I have Pooh books from when I was a child, and I remember that Pooh actually ate other things than honey, like apples. Granted, those apples were coated in sugar to make candy apples, but it still contains other things than just sugar.
Matt Pat at the start: This isn't about a character dying At the end: Pooh's diet will lead him to malnutrition and multiple health problems. So he mine as well be dead unless someone intervenes
Gotta love that matpat brings up 12 species of bears and immediately narrows it down to the basic two that everyone knows instead of literally any of the interesting species he could have been
I haven't gone through all the comments to see if anyone else points this out, but Pooh does eat other things: carrots, strawberries, jam, marmalade, bread, butter, tea and cookies/biscuits, cake... He prefers honey but there are other things it shows him eating.
Nah, because Winnie the Pooh is a character in film and television sooo.... If it was a theory about food without a loveable children's character attached to it then yeah. Sorry mate.
If it leans to fictional facts as basis to mimic into real life facts then it's either film theory or game theory. Food theory focuses on fast food myths and real life capitalism. I don't really know if there's enough material to cover but this video could have been food theory if it wasn't so focused on Winnie The Pooh.
As a person living in Winnipeg it’s cool to see you talk about our pride of Winnie the Pooh, the bear was named by one of us after WW2, they served in the war, carrying bullets and supply’s and boosting morale for the soldiers, after the war ended Winnie was given to the zoo you mentioned. Very cool stuff!
Yup yup! I learned this from Canadian Heritage Moments as a kid from Ontario. It made me feel proud of where Winnie name came from. Also, wasn't Winnie a female??? Or is that rumour. Much love from a fellow Canadian 💕
And we actually know that Paddington bear is a spectacled bear from South America [having grown up in “darkest Peru“], And therefore has the furthest thing from marmalade in his diet.
There is also a theory that all the characters are based of mental dissoders Pooh: represents eating dissoder because all he eats is honey and eats a lot. Piglet has anxiety cause he is scared of everything. Eeyore has depression because he is always sad. Tigger has ADHD because he doesn't pay attention very well and quickly changes moods. Owl has Dyslexia and short term memory loss because he often misspelled and missreads words and forget things that he said. Rabbit has ocd because he is extremely ordely and wants everything perfect. Kanga has social anxiety disorder because she is very over pretected of her child roo. And for the final christopher robin has schizophrenia because he see his friends or things he doesn't see in real life.
The honey addiction of bears is just like MatPat's addiction to diet coke, and diet coke has sweeteners, which is what makes bears addicted to honey, the glucose. So MatPat might be a BEAR. *but hey, thats JUST A THEORY*
Personally my favorite Winnie the Pooh theory is they're all representative of a different mental illness. Like rabbit is OCD, piglet is anxiety, Eeyore is depression, Tigger is ADHD, Pooh is binge eating disorder, ect. To be honest I have major nostalgia for these type of so theories cuz they are so old like in the vein of the Rugrats or Pokemon theory.
@@joshuaschulze-reimpell5000 That's incorrect - the first medical textbook describing something that sounds like ADHD was in 1798 - and some 1800s medical textbooks mention children who have what we now call ADHD, its core symptoms were first formally lectured about in 1902, and it wasn't in the DSM until 1968 as "hyperkinetic impulse disorder" and then ADD with/without hyperactivity in 1980, and finally changed to ADHD in 1987, with the 3 subtypes (predominantly inattentive, predominantly hyperactive, and combined) being added in 1994... however, descriptions of what look to be ADHD behaviours have been found dotted around history in literature and art, and even the bible. The earliest known mention of what we consider "modern ADHD" was by Hippocrates in c.400 BCE... so it's quite possible Tigger could have been modelled on people with ADHD but without knowing it by name 😅
"Milne’s introduction to his 1924 book When We Were Very Young traces the origin of the second half of the name to a swan: “Christopher Robin, who feeds this swan in the mornings, has given him the name of ‘Pooh.’ This is a very fine name for a swan, because, if you call him and he doesn’t come (which is a thing swans are good at), then you can pretend that you were just saying ‘Pooh!’ to show him how little you wanted him.”" It makes more sense to call him Pooh because that's the point of the name to begin with - If he doesn't come, then it doesnt matter.
In one episode of Winnie the Pooh rabbit tries to make pooh hibernate and he fails, when he wakes up from his nap, he says that he cannot hibernate because he is not a Norma bear, but a Pooh bear, which means that pooh is his own species of bear, the pooh bear.
MatPat does mention in his theory that an over-reliant honey diet kills the bear's biological ability to hibernate. Perhaps Pooh is simply experiencing the negative connotations of his dietary choices?
Bears eating honey has historical precedence. The Norse hero Beowulf's name roughly translates from Old Northumbrian into Bee Hunter, which was a term for Bears. This name shows a connection between Bears and Honey as far back as 700-750 A.D./C.E. when Beowulf was first transcribed from oral tradition.
@@mykl-anarche2201 you gotta remember this is thousands of years ago.... Humans didn't make that connection for the protein rich larva and just saw the bears eating the hunny
MatPat, Ollie definitely did not let you get far into "The Many Adventures...", because you have forgotten your stoutness exercises. Despite that he's never shown eating any (he gets distracted by being out of hunny of course), Pooh does mention milk and chocolate along with his honey, both of which actually do contain some protein. Probably not enough to sustain, but that would've been an interesting avenue to explore, especially since it opens the door to Pooh eating more than hunny. Good video though, always enjoy your work.

I’ve never heard the 7 deadly sins theory. I thought each character represented a mental disorder. (Compulsive eating, OCD, ADHD, dyslexia, separation anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, etc.)
But since Pooh is a walking, talking, occasionally even thinking toy, his body isn't alive and does not need the building materials to maintain itself. Needle and thread takes care of physical wear and the sugars consumed convert directly into energy. Perhaps, if Pooh consumes enough honey in one sitting, he will transcend his physical form.

Hi Matpat, one mistake in your theory, nutrition & metabolism does not scale with body height, but instead it scales with skin surface area (BSA). This is why certain medicines are sometimes prescribed in larger dosage to babies or children when compared to adults, after adjusting for weight. The keyword is allometry.
ANOTHER MISTAKE (this is pure shitpost btw) MATPAT YOU ARE MAKING ME AND THOUSANDS OF CANAIDIANS TAKE PSYCHIC DAMAGE BY SAYING brown bear HHHH GRISLY SOUNDS *WAY* COOLER
@@Fawnfreckle True, and it is the same bear, but it is spelled Grizzly bear, not grisly, though that *is* a real word and a homophone, so the mistake is easy to make.
People, listen... We do not know about either his body's physics NOR the Bees that produced the honey. If either of them is Alien AND/OR Magical, well, go figure. Anyway, the new Christopher Robin Movie is excellent, no kidding - just saying!
Dionette it's due to the time period this takes place in. If you've seen the recent remake of Winnie the Pooh to my recollection it's during ww2 or around that time frame. Then again please don't take my opinion for granted.
the 3 year old i babysat before covid said the cutest little thing she said "when the germs go away will u watch pooh bear with me" jkqhsdifqhjkhqddi IM GONNA CRYYYYYYYY
Oh my god, that's so adorable and hella sad at the same time Is there a way to like, skype with them to watch Pooh remotely? They might like it, even though it's not the same
Pooh: Uno reverse card. Doctor: Where did you even get that you live in the woods? Pooh: Where did I get the money to come here? Doctor: Uhhhhhhhh Pooh: Exactly
Imagine being the website owner and you come across this game theory video and your website is featured and you even get a cool, catchy song in the outro. What an honor.
MatPat: This is like, the only Disney theory I’ve done that isn’t about the main character being evil, or dead, or about to die The title: are you sure about that
Plot Twist: Pooh keeps Piglet around all the time for when he *finally* decides to get some bacon. Next will be Rabbit then Owl and it will cumulate in an epic one on one battle between him and Tigger.
This awoke a burst of nostalgia in me I had two Winnie The Pooh VHSs when I was a kid, the OG movie (of course), and a tape with three episodes of the TV series on it. I can't recall what two of the episodes were, but I DO remember one was the "Horse Thieves" episode, if only because it taught little four-year-old me how the meaning of a phrase could change depending on which word you place the emphasis on. XD "We're not _horse_ thieves, we're horse _thieves!_ Horses who steal things! Comprendo?"
Pooh also eats biscuits (cookies), bread, cake, milkshakes & he talks about eating cucumber & "finger sandwiches" (usually filled with cheese, chicken, mayo, lettuce & chutney) in different media.
Really weird how much research is done for his height, but then you used the equation for 1/3 weight. 1/3 height doesn't mean he has 1/3 weight. My kid is half my height, but only 1/6th my weight.
Interesting. But do you have a different method then? Cause I could understand if MatPat struggled to find a different way to measure Pooh's weight, given how difficult his height was. I'm honestly not trying to sound rude, so sorry if I came across that way.
@@matineeman3038 Mass is usually done by squaring the value e.g. if person 1 was 1m and 10 stone then say person 2 is 2m (2x taller) then they would be 4 times heavier (40 stone)
Why did you only use height to determine his caloric needs ratio, when hes clearly less wide and long too, meaning it would be a volumetric ratio, closer to 1/3^3 = 1/27, not 1/3?
Not only that, but the square-cube law works in Pooh's favor; a smaller being needs proportionately less energy to survive than a larger being, further decreasing Pooh's caloric needs. Granted, that might not solve the health issues, but it's still odd that he missed that.
As a Type 1 diabetic myself it is always appreciated when someone bothers to make the distinction between Type 1 and 2. Keep up the great work Mat, loved the theory.
I always thought that the primary theory of winnie the pooh was that they all represented "disorders"; overeating, ADHD, laziness, timidness. This might just be something someone made up from when I was a kid though
Yes, there are 2 theories I've found. The 7 Deadly Sin Theory and the Disorder Theory. Then there was one I found before it got deleted was That Winnie the Pooh Drug Theory.
This is something everyone is indoctrinated with at school. Same with the Rugrats, and how all the babies are actually dead one way or another. The show just revolving around Angelica and her griefing
Matpat: "If the environment allows for it they'll also fill a portion of their diet with rodents, *birds* , fish, insects" Me: *stares at Owl* Poor you, you might be Pooh's next meal...
1:53 My idea: Off screen eating. He goes to the river all the time. And killing fish on screen would be too much "ketchup" for the kids. If he ate proportionate amounts of fish and carcasses off screen, it could balance out his honey consumption. You have to account for the fact that this *I S* a kids movie and that it can't show things dying. I know how you are about cartoons but consider the audience. How would you feel if a fish or a rat got ripped in half by wholesome Pooh?
Well you never hear Christopher Robin say: “Silly old bear, you’re gonna die from type-2 diabetes!” now do you? When they grow up these videos are gonna annihilate your son’s childhood. Lol
Yeah look at a deadly snake. It is deadly but like you gotta get bitten and then you also have to not be treated or it has to be a pretty dangerous snake.
Theory Idea: Just how many fireable offenses has Michael Scott committed during his time as regional manager of the Dunder Mifflin Scranton branch? How many of these would go even further into legal repercussions or even criminal charges?
Well, I gotta say, this one is stretching things more than usual. Pooh is a pretty nondescript teddy bear, so that whole 'what bear is it' bit was a bit much.
Yes. And they would be right to do so, because this is a ridiculous waste of time. Its fine if thats how you want to waste your time, but dont try and retell youtube videos, it makes for a bad story.
As someone with Type 1 diabetes, I found it a bit creepy how right he was about some of the symptoms he listed at 15:20, I felt the exact same way when I first became a diabetic, there was only one symptoms that didn't match with me but different type and different people mean different symptoms
Winnie the Pooh was actually a real bear. He was from Winnipeg (that’s how he got his name) and a soldier bought him at a train station. He lived in a zoo in London during either ww1 or ww2 and the author’s son would visit him very often. The author did make up a lot of stuff, but he was based off of a real bear.
Heck! He’s a bear for crying out loud. Bears are omnivores. Why doesn’t he eat fish once in a while? Or deer meat? The only other things I ever seen him eat. Like in New Adventures. Was just cake, or honey on bread. In Piglet’s Big Movie. He eats cookies and a banana. Or candy and jelly beans in the Easter and Heffalump and Halloween movie.
Because the entire point of the character and story is that he's an imaginary friend. None of the characters are real. Pooh eats hunny, because that's what Christopher Robing thinks bears eat.
and Rabit says"honey or condensed milk with your bread" Winnie the pooh responds " both but never mind the bread" he must there fore, even though we don't see him eating it, must eat milk
I have Pooh books from when I was a child, and I remember that Pooh actually ate other things than honey, like apples.
Granted, those apples were coated in sugar to make candy apples, but it still contains other things than just sugar.
The only thing the apple will do is give him fibrean d a bunch of vitamins, he'll still get malnourished with diabetes
Nice add apples.
That's books not the show Mat is concerned with.

But since Pooh is a walking, talking, occasionally even thinking toy, his body isn't alive and does not need the building materials to maintain itself. Needle and thread takes care of physical wear and the sugars consumed convert directly into energy.
Perhaps, if Pooh consumes enough honey in one sitting, he will transcend his physical form.

Hi Matpat, one mistake in your theory, nutrition & metabolism does not scale with body height, but instead it scales with skin surface area (BSA). This is why certain medicines are sometimes prescribed in larger dosage to babies or children when compared to adults, after adjusting for weight. The keyword is allometry.
Interesting... but I think the calculations would result in similar outcomes. Pooh has enough to eat per year and he will get diabetes.
Higher dose of drugs in childs than adults should due to higher metabolic rate of kids. Hence shorter duration.
ANOTHER MISTAKE (this is pure shitpost btw)

@@Fawnfreckle True, and it is the same bear, but it is spelled Grizzly bear, not grisly, though that *is* a real word and a homophone, so the mistake is easy to make.

7 deadly sins? I've always heard the theory that the characters represented different mental disorders.
I've always been a fan of the "The animals aren't real and Christopher Robin is just imagining all of it while in a mental hospital" theory.
@@ziero1986 Childhood imaginary friends, sure, but why the mental hospital bit?
Dionette it's due to the time period this takes place in. If you've seen the recent remake of Winnie the Pooh to my recollection it's during ww2 or around that time frame. Then again please don't take my opinion for granted.
I thought you were talking about the anime of seven deadly sins...I’m slow 😭
I have heard of both theories.
I haven’t hear the 7 deadly sins comparation but I have heard how they could be mental disorders an example being tigger as ADHD
my brother has adhd and i see tigger in him
Pooh has ADHD, Eeyore has Depression etc
Most mental disorders that we know about today weren't known about back then or were hugely misunderstood. ADHD hadn't even been identified yet.
Wasn't Christopher Robin schizophrenic because he talked to stuffed animals or something?
Fun Fact: Eeyore was voiced by the same guy that voices Optimus Prime.

This awoke a burst of nostalgia in me I had two Winnie The Pooh VHSs when I was a kid, the OG movie (of course), and a tape with three episodes of the TV series on it.
I can't recall what two of the episodes were, but I DO remember one was the "Horse Thieves" episode, if only because it taught little four-year-old me how the meaning of a phrase could change depending on which word you place the emphasis on. XD
"We're not _horse_ thieves, we're horse _thieves!_ Horses who steal things! Comprendo?"
Is it s1 ep12 "Paw and Order"? (The TV series is called "The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh")
I have almost all the movies and tapes with lots of episodes (not that one though). Love Winnie the Pooh. Which VHSs did you have?
5:15 He lives in a forest with an elephant, a tiger, and a kangaroo. I don’t think location is relevant.
MatPat: Even i have limits

Pooh also eats biscuits (cookies), bread, cake, milkshakes & he talks about eating cucumber & "finger sandwiches" (usually filled with cheese, chicken, mayo, lettuce & chutney) in different media.
I knew he ate something else! At least once! I remembered him eating something that was not honey, and no on e thought that was abnormal.
This theory is all wrong. The movies clearly show that Pooh has no organs, only stuffing. Hence the theme song "stuffed with fluff".
0:08 Why does Pooh have his head in a honey pot?? 😂🤣😂🤣

Lol

I remember those days
That one really got me
That's CAPTAIN Pooh-zilla. Good day sir.
Really weird how much research is done for his height, but then you used the equation for 1/3 weight. 1/3 height doesn't mean he has 1/3 weight. My kid is half my height, but only 1/6th my weight.
It’s different for bears maybe? Idk.
Interesting. But do you have a different method then? Cause I could understand if MatPat struggled to find a different way to measure Pooh's weight, given how difficult his height was. I'm honestly not trying to sound rude, so sorry if I came across that way.
@@matineeman3038 Mass is usually done by squaring the value e.g. if person 1 was 1m and 10 stone then say person 2 is 2m (2x taller) then they would be 4 times heavier (40 stone)
yeah true, if he has the same proportions you'd guess he weighs 1/27th of a normal bear, scaling in all 3 dimensions
Idk what to tell you
M x h = volume?
Even *THATS* probably wrong
The scene you have at 1:15 is also used in the jungle book after
Why did you only use height to determine his caloric needs ratio, when hes clearly less wide and long too, meaning it would be a volumetric ratio, closer to 1/3^3 = 1/27, not 1/3?
Yes, I was wondering if someone would point this out. It's very odd such an obvious error would slip in given his usual standards.
Yeah, it should go based on weight more than height
Not only that, but the square-cube law works in Pooh's favor; a smaller being needs proportionately less energy to survive than a larger being, further decreasing Pooh's caloric needs.
Granted, that might not solve the health issues, but it's still odd that he missed that.
And we need that information to help us in life
I mean, you’re not wrong, but either way it’s the same result
As a Type 1 diabetic myself it is always appreciated when someone bothers to make the distinction between Type 1 and 2.
Keep up the great work Mat, loved the theory.
This reminds me of the 'Could Simba Survive Only On Insects' theory.

Yay but it is reversed because Pooh spits out the bees
I mean, of course he could. He’d just be eating, all, the, time

I always thought that the primary theory of winnie the pooh was that they all represented "disorders"; overeating, ADHD, laziness, timidness. This might just be something someone made up from when I was a kid though

My idea: Off screen eating. He goes to the river all the time. And killing fish on screen would be too much "ketchup" for the kids. If he ate proportionate amounts of fish and carcasses off screen, it could balance out his honey consumption. You have to account for the fact that this *I S* a kids movie and that it can't show things dying. I know how you are about cartoons but consider the audience. How would you feel if a fish or a rat got ripped in half by wholesome Pooh?
I love messed up and disturbing tv shows and stuff, and I did as a child too, so for me, it be pretty cool

well, I mean... he's right- people can live with Type 2 Diabetes, and if he struggles and ends up dying, it won't be right away.
I mean, deadly doesn't always mean you die right away. Look at Smoking, considered extremely deadly despite not being outright fatal.
@@Endershock1678 good point, I just meant it sounds contradictory and I thought it sounded funny

Yep
Winnie the Pooh was actually a real bear. He was from Winnipeg (that’s how he got his name) and a soldier bought him at a train station. He lived in a zoo in London during either ww1 or ww2 and the author’s son would visit him very often. The author did make up a lot of stuff, but he was based off of a real bear.

Heck! He’s a bear for crying out loud. Bears are omnivores. Why doesn’t he eat fish once in a while? Or deer meat? The only other things I ever seen him eat. Like in New Adventures. Was just cake, or honey on bread. In Piglet’s Big Movie. He eats cookies and a banana. Or candy and jelly beans in the Easter and Heffalump and Halloween movie.
Because the entire point of the character and story is that he's an imaginary friend. None of the characters are real. Pooh eats hunny, because that's what Christopher Robing thinks bears eat.
In that case, maybe he's more addicted to sugar rather than honey. That even further proves he's got diabetes!
