Very interesting theory. I can't find any holes in it, but it was a while since I last played through Majora's Mask. (which is the best Zelda game to date. If you haven't played it yet: GO PLAY IT. It beats the snot out of Ocarina of Time)

ive seen a bunch of this guys videos and this theory kinda makes sense, but there is a huge gap in time between majora's mask and twilight princess(those two are a part in the timeline) and using his theory that the ghost teaching you the moves in twilight princess is the child link wouldnt hold too well if hes not in a game that happens inbetween those two in the timeline, if there is one, that would put a little flaw in his theory, hes also not in the four swords aiding that link at all which is also in the child timeline

then again this guy tried to disprove the zelda timeline in an earlier video

Why?
I think you're just misunderstanding some things..
"I saw [Twilight: Eclipse] in theaters with a girl I was dating at the time. I spent more time staring at my toes and wiggling them than I did watching this abomination. When Edward proposed to Blank Face, I finally looked up with a revelation.
I blurted out loud, in a dead silent theater full of teenage girls on opening night "Wait a minute, Edward has no blood flow. How does he get an erection?" I heard several men laughing, and had several girls turn and stare at me.

I did not get laid that night." - Berengier817

link to the past was better to me than MM because i like the birds eye view games better

why tho? because if the young link that is apparently dead in MM doesnt help other links in his timeline doesnt that seem a bit weird? he would only be aiding the link in twilight princess instead of the link(s) in four sword, why only teach the twilight princess link instead of the link in four swords?

and if they make a new game inbetween MM and TP in the timeline and the "ghost of MM link" isnt in that game it would put a little dent in the theory

like i said i like the theory but that whole "link is the ghost in TP teaching the new links how to fight" is the only problem i have with it

Finally someone who agrees with me on how good of a game MM is <3


I have also seen a bunch of this guys videos and most of his videos make a lot of sense.

As for this one, I agree it's a nice theory and it could be very true that Link is actually dead in MM, but like ^ said, it's hard to believe a child would be teaching TP Link his moves.
I do agree with the fact that yes, the ghost is Link, but I can't really believe he's a child.
Mainly due to the fact that he's way bigger (taller) as a ghost and older and, for as far as I know, it doesn't sound very believable that ghosts grow taller. Plus, pre-MM link (read: the intro cinematic Link) doesn't know any of those sword techniques yet.

Then again, maybe over time humans evolved and became little shorties...
Hylians are actually yordles.


Maybe I misstated some facts here been a while since I watched the video and I didn't rewatch it and I haven't played MM and TP in forever.

Keep an eye out for my soon to be published guides ;)

There's a plethora of reasons why Stalfos-turned Link couldn't do that.
I don't think that's a hole in the theory.

This part makes no sense..

Who says ghosts can't change in size or learn new things?

Your statements could be true, but they're unconfirmed theories and nothing you should treat as anything more than plausible.

Fair enough, I mean yes maybe they can learn stuff, grow, etc.
I just don't like the sound of that personally...
