This theory is based on Jacob Reveal? by WilliamWonka. You may wish to read it before continuing.
This is a fun and creative theory that’s been spreading but come on!
Have Lost fans really sunken to such a level of abstract speculation that they would delude themselves into seriously considering this theory?

So you really think “future Jack” somehow found the island and went back in time (possibly decades if not more), built a cabin far off in the woods, decorated it with a painting of a dog, decided to keep jars of urine and blood on his window, morphed into something that looks nothing like the other Jack, is invisible, has crazy spiritual powers that allows him to throw things across the rooms etc, hates technology despite being a surgeon, learned how to cure cancer, decided to somehow become the other’s spiritual leader and dictator, guided Ben to do a host of weird stuff like steal children, all for the opportunity, that on an off chance, Ben might bring John Locke to his cabin so that he can cryptically yell “Help me.” All of this, In hopes that Locke would understand what this meant, and stop past Jack from making a totally logical phone call on the island.
If somehow this really was the case, Locke really dropped the ball. I mean, he throws a knife at Naomi then stumbles off into the woods while loosing pints of blood?
Not to mention the bizarre logic and calculation for all of this to happen would require someone not swallowing Oxycontin like its pez.

LMAO!
Damn, and I had just cleaned my LCD screen too!
I wonder if Jack has a Nikki or a Paulo PEZ dispenser.
You owe me a Budweiser! :)
the title even rhymes - :)
Jack’s on crack smoking in his likkle shack
likkle shack? sick!
lol I woud love to live in a likkle shack.
Nice theory BTW. The way you put it is just… funny. Cant find a better word. Accept that it makes me believe that jack =/= jacob. (i didnt think that anyway)
Follow me here…
The “dust” that Ben stepped over and Locke sniffed was in fact cocaine.
Jacob said, “help me” to Locke. Remember that Locke was in a twelve step program, so Jacob knew Locke could help him.
Locke helped Charlie with his heroin addiction and given time might have helped sasquatch er Hurley with his eating disorder.
Everything is coming into focus now! :)
So…So…Good…..I have a buzz…and gee, I thought I’d have something to contribute tonight..and naw…Jack isn’t jacob or Jakob..
One word.
Awesome.
Props to WhiteRbbtad!
You know it is a good thread when the profOzone endorses it. :)
I say we make this the official facetious/sarcastic/attempt at humor thread on this site.
Good one!
Nice one white. We’ll see. I just don’t think they can make Jacob some random character. They are going to make it some sort of “No….I am your father” kind of moment. Hell maybe Christian. That would be fun. The Jack Jacob thing certainly created a stir around here though which is pretty cool. Nice post. Thought it was very funny.
Cheers.
Ah, but Jacob could be Jack in the future… after contracting kuru!
Brilliant post, thank you for inspiring me to comment :)
Woohooo! Fighting back without being flamed!
Yeah, way too many people believe Jacob is Jack, and all number of stupid theories.
Just a rant: Lost is too high concept for time travel too I fear… But definitely too good for them to write themselves into a hole like that… There’s still a 2 year gap to fill in the universe of Lost with all manner of outside characters probably going to be introduced…
Awesome is an understatement but I can’t seem to come up with another word to describe it, oh well +1 from me though.
I good sir, praise you. I really hated that stupid jack is jacob theory. I wish people would just stop trying to find the most complicated theory instead of the right one.
Interesting that no one has posted a single negative comment yet 12 people have voted this down.
LMAO hilarious im getting everyone to plus this +1 from me
TheHolyStickman q: )
You hit the nail on the head!!!!!!!!! Thank you if nothing else +1
i agree jack is NOT jakob
luv this lost theory’s have become quite serious it’s nice to have a laugh, jus out of total curiosity what ta hell is oxycontin, what does it do?
If Jacob is Jack, which I don’t think he is, he’s the ghost of Jack. He’s not future Jack. There are screencaps that show a gapping hole in Jacob’s head. Jacob is, in my opinion, definitely a dead person. On top of that, the screencaps of Jacob look a lot more like Locke than Jack. Check out DarkUFO

I can confidently say that the Jack = Jacob theory is debunked.

Finally someone who points out that de Jacob=Jack theorie is a very stupid and impossible theorie. Or better all the Jacob=character we know (Jacob=Locke, Jacob=Desmond,…) theories are stupid. Also the way you wrote it made me laugh.
JACK NOT JACOB THEIR WAS TALK OF 2 OR3 NEW characters COMING INTO SHOW 1 BEEN JACOB I RECON JACOB WAS ON THE BLACK ROCK
I def agree. No way are they the same. I’m sure someone has prolly already pointed out the Ben can see Jacob, or says he can. So if he is seeing him then he would know that they were the same. So no way.
LOL So funny! Thanx! Jack is Jack, Jack is not Jacob!
1+ for me
Yes, all very funny. But with regards to the credebility of the Jack/Jacob theory, I still find it to be the most interesting and dare I say the most plausible. Another thing, Jacob/Jack is not invisible, Jack returned to the Island in a parallel dimension, there’s a difference. It takes someone “special”, i.e. Locke, Ben to see into the next dimension.
Well Jacob does have a beard like Jack. But I always thought that Jacob looked more like Richard but taller ><
Jacob seems to be Alvar Hanso, who was deposed by the evil Dr. Mittlewerk. Hanso has a beard…
Also, Mittlewerk has teamed up with Sun’s dad to build the freighter (really a hospital quarantine morgue ship) and Widmore to conduct the effort to derail the Valenzetti equation on the island - which means releasing a deadly virus…
Small wonder Jacob is asking for help, and Ben and Locke are so adamant that the freighter is very bad news.
i think jack is totally jacob. and he wasn’t asking locke to help him kick his drug habit, he was asking locke to help him score some crack… some sweet sweet crack. hell, that’s why he threw such a temper tantrum, he was withdrawn. and locke was a little high too which is why he didn’t see him at first and sweatin’ like crazy. he left and was like “i’m gonna go make another tshirt out of hemp.
jacob is magnus hanso he is cursed for bein the first human to set foot on the island
