	~~There was much speculation as to what "~~the fog~~" actually was~~, ~~as there was no concrete answer~~, ~~or evidence to any claims main. One of~~ the ~~believed causes of the fog was~~ that Daniel ~~broke his phone’s front and/or back camera in what~~ was ~~presumably a [[Meltdowns\|meltdown]]~~. ~~This caused any footage recorded on it~~ to ~~have~~ a ~~blurry~~, fog~~-like effect~~.

The comments under these video often said "The fog is coming", referring to a TikTok meme where users warned each other of a vague, lovecraftian, and threatening "fog." Daniel has never responded to any of these comments, probably never knowing what these comments were referring to.

	~~Another theory, which~~ was the ~~most reasonable~~, was ~~that~~ Daniel ~~dropped his phone, smashing~~ the ~~screen~~, ~~including~~ the ~~area around~~ the front and/or back camera~~. In order for Daniel to prevent hurting himself~~ from the ~~broken shards of glass around the camera, and~~ to protect ~~the~~ phone ~~itself, it is thought~~ that Daniel ~~put~~ on ~~layers of translucent tape, causing the fog to occur~~.		There was much speculation as to what "the fog" actually was, as there was no concrete evidence for any claims made about its origin. Before Daniel confirmed the cause of the fog, one of the believed causes of the fog was that Daniel damaged his phone’s front and/or back camera in what was presumably a [[Meltdowns\|meltdown]] or from water damage, with one related theory being that he tape over the screen to protect his phone. Another theory was that The Fog was caused due to Daniel ejaculating on his phone and letting it dry.

	~~Another theory was that~~ Daniel ~~left his phone out in~~ the ~~rain, or dropped it in a body~~ of ~~water~~, ~~causing condensation~~ to ~~form underneath the screen~~ on ~~top of the front facing~~ camera~~. This is plausible, however,~~ it ~~is important~~ to ~~note that [~~https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/~~na0pwt~~/~~every_major_event_of_daniel_larson_career_took_me~~/~~?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3~~ the ~~fog receded~~ and ~~came back on multiple occasions], so unless Daniel was consistently dropping his phone into bodies of water~~, ~~it is unlikely for~~ this to be the ~~case~~.		=== Daniel Confirming the Origin ===

	The Final, and most disturbing theory was that The Fog was caused due to Daniel ejaculating on his phone and letting it dry. As ridiculous as this sounds, it was not out of the realm of possibility, due to Daniel's crippling sex addiction and depravity, and the "mysterious" nature of The Fog's appearance and disappearance.		The Fog has made periodic appearances in different, most notably through "The Glare," where Daniel's camera would seemingly be blurred due to glaring from light sources surrounding him. These would be more prevalent during the winter months between 2021-2024.

	The fog first showed in early 2021, and in the following months, it would continue to worsen, up until Daniel was no longer visible in his videos. The comments under these video often said "The fog is coming", referring to a TikTok meme where users warned each other of a vague, lovecraftian, and threatening "fog". Daniel has never responded to any of these comments, probably never knowing what these comments were referring to.
