Sherlock couldn't have possible landed on that truck.

It was possible and I suppose he did it.

Why don't you think Molly and the homeless network helped?

Sherlock always has manipulated Molly and used her for his own purposes and I like the idea of not having stopped this. (Sorry for all the romantics in the audience). But anyway she helped. The homeless-network couldn't help, because their role is just give Sherlock informations, not stage such a performance. Besides there were only few hours for Sherlock to brief them and organize that whole complex act and I suppose he prefers a more simple plan. (Simple in his own point of view, of course.)

But particularly Sherlock is characterised as "Alone is what I have. Alone protects me." He doesn't trust any others.

I agree with you, S.he, that Sherlock doesn't ask Molly for help out of romantic feelings. Hypergreenfrog already mentioned the practical reasons for asking her. Nevertheless this situation is different than before and I don't believe in manipulation at this point. I think Molly has impressed him in some way or other by her loyalty in supporting his work and her courage in telling him things other people don't (about looking sad when John doesn't notice). Not to mention the Christmas scene when she's telling him off because he has deeply hurt her feelings. His reaction is a genuine apology, a thing we didn't see him do until this point. We all know that series 2 is also about Sherlock discovering and exploring his feelings and in this context it would be fitting to ask Molly for help but not in order to manipulate her.

To avoid misunderstandings: I didn't say, Molly didn't help, in no case. Sherlock needed her help and he got this help. But (for me) it was not necessary, to tell her the truth and let her in on his survival-plan. Altough he is idealised to the "most human human being" ever in the end.

And of course, I noticed the physically impossible distance between the way he fell and the truck on the sidewalk too. So you say, he didn't land on this truck. My deduction was just another one.

So, why say you do not trust Molly then?
How do you think he got into the truck when he fell if you say the truck is too far away?
Lots of us have done lots of theories here so read back through them all and see if any of your ideas have already been said by someone else.
We cannot repeat all the theories that have been suggested. You need to go through them yourself. Then see if any are the same as the ones you have. Then see what other people may have said against or for them.

Trolling oder?

I thought the idea of this forum was to have open discussions about one's theories, opinions, preferences, etc. I simply don't understand the purpose of your posts as apparently you don't want to tell us what you're thinking. Just my opinion .

@ SusiGo, Irene Adler: Your opinion is absolutly ok for me.

@ All: But I don't wanna discuss, what right reasons to be in a forum are. But just an idea: I would enjoy, if you make a own thread/ post (not in this thread plaese) and tell a list of your „do“s and „don't“s about how Sherlock did it. But a condition rules: No single pieces of theories without a cohesion/ relation/ context to each other (at least in your mind). And behind the points should be there a more or less complete whole story from the beginning to its end. And then you can explain your points in a short way, in a long way, in no way, however you want. And we/ you can discuss that, too. It would gives a pretty overview of your theories. (Because I suppose you would agree, that the theory-pieces in this forum are a little bit disarranged yet.)



Addition: And if you are sure about your theory, please feel free to boast a little bit.
