The theory that Sherlock jumped off the building onto the truck can simply not be true, because Sherlock quite obviously FALLS off the building as opposed to JUMPING - he'd never make it. He can't have chucked Moriarty off because there was no oppotunity to - he must have fallen and landed. It also had to be convincing enough for the sniper to believe it, although I do think Moriarty might be the sort of person to leave an oppotunity for Sherlock to survive, just to see if Sherlock CAN beat him.
At first I thought he threw Moriarty's dead body off the building then lay there when the bike knocked John over (the bike thing was obviously planned because the guy didn't even look back at him) but then I thought why would he be flailing his arms and legs around if he's dead? AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGG I'M SO CONFUSED!!!!!!!!!!!
If you pause it right when the biker knocks John down, you can see a laundry truck in front of the building. By the time John gets up, its gone. Sherlock jumped into the laundry truck and Molly threw a body made up to look like him out of a window.
Do you guys know what version of Sinnerman is playing in the background? I was looking for it on iTunes but there were like two hundred different version... and I really don't want the women's gospel choir version ^^ This one is pretty cool though.
@Fernando40s What do you think the "replay" button is for? :D I'm watching the first two series over and over again to alleviate the pain of Sherlocklessness :*( I always find little things I didn't notice at first.
@prasatko2820 ***SPOILER ALERT! I'M WARNING YOU NOW!!!*** When you watch the whole episode at the VERY end Sherlock is watching John at his 'grave.' Every episode ends with a mystery but now we have to wait a whole SEASON XO this episode is exactly like the (amazing) movie Sherlock Holmes 2.
@JokkeHimSelf *ignoring the rude and unnecessary pejorative used by the respondent*. The BBC did not create the preview - the BBC has an employee or someone on contract who created to the preview. My reference to "whoever" was directed to him or her.
I just love the look on Moriarty's face when he's being led into the courtroom; he has this sort of bored expression on at first, then he starts smirking, like he's just going through all the motions, but he's planning out every move everyone around him will make. Life is just a game to him and it's really obvious here.
Sherlock did indeed contacted Molly. Remember the scene where Sherlock told Molly that he needed her because he knows that he is going to die? I am positive that where Molly and Holmes devised a plan to fake his own death - he seen it coming.
I think Sherlock did something (maybe contacted Molly to get her ready) when he asked Moriarty for a moment alone, that just seemed a little ooc to me. The building was only 3 stories, which he could survive if the fall/impact was right. Then Molly added the fake blood. Sherlock arranged for the cyclist to knock John over so he wouldn't get to Sherlock in time to see Molly putting fake blood on him. Also, did you notice that when John tried to take Sherlock's pulse, a woman pulled his hand away?
@omgbabiesatemydingo That's actually pretty clever. But how would she put the fake blood? It wasn't only Watson, there were 2-3 people watching at the same time. And the sniper.
@alexman378 Well, as for the sniper, the truck (Molly) was in the way, blocking the view of the street where Sherlock landed. I'm betting that got in the way of the snipers sight. As for the other people, they would have passed by before the jump. Nobody saw Sherlock on the roof, so nobody stopped to see what was going on. If you watch it again, people don't come running over until Sherlock in on the ground and the truck is driving away. The street is empty when Sherlock lands.
@omgbabiesatemydingo - Actually, the whole pulse thing is interesting. There are a few shots, including a close up, of Sherlock holding a squash ball. Now, if you put a squash ball in your armpit, it's not possible to detect a pulse.
@omgbabiesatemydingo If he jumped from the roof of St. Bartholomews Hospital...then its more like 4 floors plus a little extra I think....check the video and then google some pictures of it.....I saw at least 4 floors
@omgbabiesatemydingo I don't think Molly would have been there. It adds too much possible complications to the plan. One of the people who held back John (the homeless network?) could have added te blood. Or Sherlock had it with him. Besides: if the 'onlookers' saw a girl putting blood on a man they probably wouldn't be very convinced the man was dead. I think Molly was needed to get him a body from te morgue: to bury in his grave.
@stormsangel2 (I put 'onlookers' between brackets because most of the people there were probably in on the plan, to some extent. So in short-> Option a: They were not in on it: Molly couldn't have added the blood because that would be suspicious. Option b: They were in on it, so Molly didn't need to be there.)
I just love this music, its been stuck in the head since last week.
I have been trying to find this song since then, I found out that its by Nina simone, but this version is a hr different.... I just love it! I'm humming it right now!
@MrMoomoo112233 I also love this song so much and I cannot get it out of my head ever since I first heard it on Sherlock. Such a beautiful song and it matches this Sherlock episode perfectly.
I think sherlock fell in a garbage truck or something at the same time molly threw a dead body from a window (watch the scene, it is possible imo). AND there might have been a sherlock mask on the body, same mask that was perhaps used to scare the little girl? And john was knocked down (and maybe injected with the baskerville drug?) so he would not know the difference between sherlock and the body.
@joonamato And i also think moriarty and sherlock both faked their deaths, when moriarty said he owed sherlock a fall i think he meant that he owes sherlock a fake death so he would no longer be famous.
i think when jhon got hit by the bike he got injected with the baskiville stuff or when moriate used a masked to scare the kid early on in the episode he used that and through moreate of or somin i dont know lol
I think I might know what Sherlock did that was "out of character"(as Moffat told us):
Sherlock was playing with a bouncing ball in a lab. IN A LAB!! How often do you see a bouncing ball in a lab? random! Sherlock is most likely not carrying it in his pocket!
He got it from Molly ;D It is possible you stop your pulse in your arm, putting a smaller ball in your armpit. This is what Sherlock did to stop his pulse...unfortunatley I can not explain the fall but obviously he did not hit the ground.
:D :D ... all people are making something like their theory about the end ... it is absolutely amazing , i think that all of people want to have a truth ... but no one is genius :)
SPOILERS!. How did Sherlock do it? I guess we'll find out. I suspect that the last phone conversation between Watson and Holmes is not in realtime. I think Holmes recorded a message and played it to Watson - its not really a dialogue, he ignores anything Watson says and there are weird pauses. What the extra time did for him - not sure. The biker who hits Watson is not Holmes (although maybe its just a stunt double). Also, there is big vehicle in front of the building which is no longer parked.
@nyappynoodle It means "I owe you!". Moriarty said that to Sherlock in his room and now too only to make him believe he's always 1 step ahead of him. Tried to manipulate him.
@MrEdTime I don´t get it; how is "I O U" the important clue? I know that Moffat said that there is a clue and that it has something to do with Sherlock acting "out of character", but I still don´t really get it...
I hope Moriarty is dead....him surviving a gun the mouth would be stretching it too much...even for the show. Plus in the final problem Holmes survives and Moriarty dies anyways...i don't know why that's a spoiler since the books have been around for a long...long time.

at 17 seconds in -that look from Sherlock to John-now it is beginning-the solution to get rid of Moriarty.His & Mycroft's plan will involve taking John through the ringer-emotionally taking him to the edge.John is the one who's world is collapsing around him-he's so strong they know only the devastion of seeing Sherlock die will unlock his true emotions and keep everyone alive.The Holmes brothers are in the driver's seat from start to finish. Believe it! <3
No complete theory, but just before SH meets JM, he's playing with a squash ball in the labs. The squash ball is famously able to be able to be used to stop the heartbeat in your wrist (hiding it under you armpit and squeezing the capillary). That must be how he disguised his pulse. I'm 8/10 sure
n ofcourse Molly helped him so when Sherlock tells her, I need u, they cut off the next part and they didn't even show what happened to Moriarty's body... but I'm so glad we have a 3rd series and I'm already starving :(
zipponemanja the song is called sinnerman, and is written by nina simone its a great song..............just type in sinnerman on youtube, it will come up!!!!
This episode blew my mind! And I can't figure out for the life of me how Sherlock pulled it off, and I'm going to drive myself mad for an entire year figuring it out! This was one of the most well thought out and acted shows I've ever seen, and I need more xD Oh, and the song in this is epic, can someone tell me who it's by?
It's Sherlock on the stretch for sure.I believe that he landed on the truck,another body was tossed simultaneously on the pavement,maybe from the truck,(that explains why he insists 'keep your eyes fixed on me") and John was knocked down by the cyclist to give time to Sherlock (and Molly presumably) to put the body back on the track and for Sherlock to lay down and cover his face in blood.John had to be convinced that Sherlock was indeed dead,he would not be mistaken so easily.
I have a couple of theories how he managed to do it, my main theory is something to do with the fact that when he made JW stand at that position.... it wasn't to stop JW from seeing him fall, but to make sure the 'sniper' couldn't see what was happening i.e if JW was near SH then the plan wouldn't have worked
Brilliant episode. I've already watched it like, 3 times. I've watched the part where Sherlock jumps an extra twenty times.There has to be some sort of switch after he jumps, obviously, because it's really him falling. But it's TOTALLY his face when they turn him over, and that's where I keep getting stuck. I know my Benedict's face. Lol. I guess it can't be, though.
Long story short, though: Martin Freeman is AMAZING and Sally Donovan needs to die an unneccesary long and painful death.
What about that dummy mentioned earlier in the ep? i doubt they'd put in something that..useful and then say no more of it, so i think its a kind of Chekov's Gun technique.
I'm actually kinda hoping that the next series' first episode will be Sherlock solo for most of it, then only revealing himself to JW at the end (not like that lol). But anyway, the way he survived the fall will not be so easy as people could guess it within a week, it'll be something so much simpler, like how the stand-off finished.
I don't know how he did it, I'm sure Molly was involved (though I love all these theories, I could almost say conspiracy theories :D), but there are so many things left unexplained... maybe someone will get the right theory but we'll all know eventually. But to everyone involved in creating this episode I have to say: THANK YOU! THIS is what I call great storytelling!
Sherlock can't of swapped his clothes with moriaty's body as when he jumps off the building his arms and legs are moving as he's falling. As for how he fakes his death, wait till series 3 to find out instead of trying to figure it out and spoil Howe actually did it!
Somewhere through Sherlock said to Molly "I need you to do me a favour" also " I think I'm going to die" now how hard would it be to make a mock up of a body like Sherlock? (Latex face, fake blood etc.)
This show is absolute genius!!! I want to give everyone who worked on this a fat kiss straight on the lips. And this is coming from a straight grown ass man. Haha!
@bctopper, I couldn´t agree more, I also could kiss, hug and thank each and every one who is involved in this amazing show and this outstanding episode. It was so intense, especially towards the end. I loved every single second of it.
@mrrrloc Regarding your fucking idiotic comment 'your a tupid twat to think this crap is any good'. 1, Its You're, with an apostrophe, as in You are. 2. If you disliked the show, calling it crap, why have you taken the time to log in to you tube, view a video about the show, scroll down and read comments and post one of your (no apostrophe required here) own? Insulting someone who, has 21 likes, against your 0 on a video with (as of 18.01.12 19:56pm) 1005 likes to 3? You're a fool.
@Faceman825 hahahah wtf is wrong with you jackass, go back to school and learn to write a simple comment. Not 1. YOU. at 3:13, are a "douche" (so called) boolean = true / your fail, need to get laid x274. Get the drift you stupid idiot?
Does anyone know, when there will be season 3? I can not wait for such a long time. I suppose, John will be very mad finding out, that Sherlock is alive and did not tell him.
An outstanding episode. (SPOILERS) My theory on how Sherlock survived: Sherlock really did jump, but landed in that truck that was parked underneath but drove off just as John was knocked over by the cyclist. He planned with Molly to have a body put there dressed as Sherlock with similar hair and facial features (your face doesn't look the same after a fall remember). Many nursing staff were in on this too as was the cyclist. This was planned by Sherlock and his 'note' was a double meaning.
@MrTerra5005 Ahh, but did he really? If you re watch it, there is a truck right under the spot Sherlock jumped and he had John stand in a certain part of the street which could have easily made the truck conceal his landing, then John gets knocked over and then we see the truck drive off.
But yes, we'll find out! I honestly can't wait though hehe.
@SeaDistrict Thanks! Yes, I know. My favourite one yet is that there was a trapdoor and Molly was standing under it to catch him. I thought that was really cute lol.
SPOILERS: - It has to have something to do with the way the little girl screamed - I think Moriarty had a Sherlock look-a-like, would also explain why Sherlock didn't want John to get to close at the end - so the look-a-like could take the fall without him noticing.
@RANDOMFREAKSHOWCO He's Sherlock! - There has to be a connection with why the girl screamed - why have it in, and leave it at a loose end otherwise - I dare say Sherlock worked it out and used it to his advantage.
I was just about to ask the name of the song... lol

No complete theory, but just before SH meets JM, he's playing with a squash ball in the labs. The squash ball is famously able to be able to be used to stop the heartbeat in your wrist (hiding it under you armpit and squeezing the capillary). That must be how he disguised his pulse. I'm 8/10 sure

n ofcourse Molly helped him so when Sherlock tells her, I need u, they cut off the next part and they didn't even show what happened to Moriarty's body... but I'm so glad we have a 3rd series and I'm already starving :(

This episode blew my mind! And I can't figure out for the life of me how Sherlock pulled it off, and I'm going to drive myself mad for an entire year figuring it out! This was one of the most well thought out and acted shows I've ever seen, and I need more xD Oh, and the song in this is epic, can someone tell me who it's by?

@ThereWillBeBreakfast The song is called "Sinnerman" by Nina Simone. You are right- it is epic.

Sherlock said to Molly he needed her. and she does autopsy and she could've put a recently dead body there instead of Sherlock? maybe?
Mad4Torres 1 month ago
It's Sherlock on the stretch for sure.I believe that he landed on the truck,another body was tossed simultaneously on the pavement,maybe from the truck,(that explains why he insists 'keep your eyes fixed on me") and John was knocked down by the cyclist to give time to Sherlock (and Molly presumably) to put the body back on the track and for Sherlock to lay down and cover his face in blood.John had to be convinced that Sherlock was indeed dead,he would not be mistaken so easily.
kateris1976 1 month ago
I have a couple of theories how he managed to do it, my main theory is something to do with the fact that when he made JW stand at that position.... it wasn't to stop JW from seeing him fall, but to make sure the 'sniper' couldn't see what was happening i.e if JW was near SH then the plan wouldn't have worked
matwootton1982 1 month ago
Brilliant episode. I've already watched it like, 3 times. I've watched the part where Sherlock jumps an extra twenty times.There has to be some sort of switch after he jumps, obviously, because it's really him falling. But it's TOTALLY his face when they turn him over, and that's where I keep getting stuck. I know my Benedict's face. Lol. I guess it can't be, though.
Long story short, though: Martin Freeman is AMAZING and Sally Donovan needs to die an unneccesary long and painful death.

What about that dummy mentioned earlier in the ep? i doubt they'd put in something that..useful and then say no more of it, so i think its a kind of Chekov's Gun technique.
noreasonforaccount 1 month ago 3
I'm actually kinda hoping that the next series' first episode will be Sherlock solo for most of it, then only revealing himself to JW at the end (not like that lol). But anyway, the way he survived the fall will not be so easy as people could guess it within a week, it'll be something so much simpler, like how the stand-off finished.
noreasonforaccount 1 month ago 4
I don't know how he did it, I'm sure Molly was involved (though I love all these theories, I could almost say conspiracy theories :D), but there are so many things left unexplained... maybe someone will get the right theory but we'll all know eventually. But to everyone involved in creating this episode I have to say: THANK YOU! THIS is what I call great storytelling!
LemonieLovegood 1 month ago
Sherlock can't of swapped his clothes with moriaty's body as when he jumps off the building his arms and legs are moving as he's falling. As for how he fakes his death, wait till series 3 to find out instead of trying to figure it out and spoil Howe actually did it!

Somewhere through Sherlock said to Molly "I need you to do me a favour" also " I think I'm going to die" now how hard would it be to make a mock up of a body like Sherlock? (Latex face, fake blood etc.)

If you disliked the show, calling it crap, why have you taken the time to log in to you tube, view a video about the show, scroll down and read comments and post one of your (no apostrophe required here) own? Insulting someone who, has 21 likes, against your 0 on a video with (as of 18.01.12 19:56pm) 1005 likes to 3? You're a fool.

RANDOMFREAKSHOWCO 1 month ago
An outstanding episode. (SPOILERS) My theory on how Sherlock survived: Sherlock really did jump, but landed in that truck that was parked underneath but drove off just as John was knocked over by the cyclist. He planned with Molly to have a body put there dressed as Sherlock with similar hair and facial features (your face doesn't look the same after a fall remember). Many nursing staff were in on this too as was the cyclist. This was planned by Sherlock and his 'note' was a double meaning.

MrTerra5005 1 month ago
@MrTerra5005 Ahh, but did he really? If you re watch it, there is a truck right under the spot Sherlock jumped and he had John stand in a certain part of the street which could have easily made the truck conceal his landing, then John gets knocked over and then we see the truck drive off.
But yes, we'll find out! I honestly can't wait though hehe.

rochelle900 1 month ago
SPOILERS: - It has to have something to do with the way the little girl screamed - I think Moriarty had a Sherlock look-a-like, would also explain why Sherlock didn't want John to get to close at the end - so the look-a-like could take the fall without him noticing.
