Has Howie Mandel been kidnapped????

I was recently made aware of another conspiracy theory going around that Howie Mandel. The deal or no deal game show host who switched over to America’s Got Talent. The germaphobe. The weirdo himself has supposedly been kidnapped and is being held hostage by unknown entities.

This theory originated on Tik Tok. And we all know tik tok is where you go for Chinese child trafficking danger and funny videos if you’re an adult. So buckle up cause this rabbit hole is dark and wildly complex.

A fan has claimed he has sent “secret messages” for help through his tik tok videos.

In one video, he looks up, and the numbers 132-0 appear to be written on the inside of his hat.

132-0 allegedly means "armed intruder" in police radio code.

In another video, the young teen claims that in a seperate TikTok Howie has made, he writes the date 8/14/20.

If you "plug those numbers into the alphabet" that they make HNT, which could be intpreted as Hostage Negotiation Team.

Other than these numbers and interpretations there’s nothing to suggest that Howie is in any trouble. But the fact that he wrote those numbers on his hat is deeply strange.

People suggest his weird behavior points to something being “off”. But this dude has always been weird. Like ALWAYS. Plus we all know extended isolation from quarantine can drive anyone insane. Insane enough to pretend your being kidnapped? Anything is possible.

After looking through his Instagram I see he mainly posts from a big empty house. Mainly in what looks like a entry way. There’s no other people in any one these videos. Which in theory could indicate something isn’t right. However, he’s also a millionaire with adult children. We are in a pandemic after all. And he’s a germaphobe.

The 2nd interesting thing I did notice in several of his videos is that he seems far away from other people. In the few videos where other people appear. Like he’s taking social distancing too far.

In one video he waves at his granddaughter outside a window. In another it looks like hes in a tent in the back yard....but he’s the only one in there....while two other people are sitting several feet away????

Maybe he isn’t allow to get close to anyone?? Seems like a strangely complex kidnapping strategy. But it’s also just really fucking weird in general. So I got no explanation for that.

In several Instagram posts he seems to be around only two other people. One seems to be his daughter and the other is unnamed. I’m assuming it’s his son in law. For some strange reason his wife and daughter and grandchildren never seem to be in the same place as him at the same time.........kidnapper select visitation? Is that a thing?

Maybe Howie just posts snippets of various family members to maintain as much privacy as possible? Seems odd that the whole family is social distancing that much though. Like really really odd.

Despite all this. We know for sure Howie is alive. He’s not hurt, although we don’t see him eating, he doesn’t appear to be starving. He’s laughing and smiling in many videos. No Visible signs of mental distress. He sees his grandkids, hes got a bottle of fancy whiskey (that we don’t seem him drunk), he’s got plenty of Lysol, he’s on a boat etc etc. So all in all these must be the nicest kidnappers in history.

But most importantly WHY would anyone bother kidnapping Howie? He’s a nice guy. He’s unproblematic. He’s worth roughly $40 million dollars but does anyone really care?? Plus, how long do we have to wait for a ransom to be announced? Does NBC pay the ransom? Do we set up a gofundme to pay it? Should we just set one up now just in case?

So many questions. So much speculative fiction. It’s fun to think about though.

Stay safe out out there Howie. You fucking freak.
