If either one wasn't, they're be better served setting themselves both on fire to be absolutely sure.

I like this theory the most. I also heard that the script says mac has a weapon under his coat.

Another theory suggests he didn't realize he was accidentally drinking a molotov cocktail, thus being the thing.

It's not a theory. It's a meme. A stupid meme.

Calm down son, your autism is showing. All I said there's another theory countering your theory.
My theory is Carpenter left it exactly 50% whether he was the thing on purpose. He made it as ambiguous as possible.

That was my first post ITT, and molotov meme is retarded. The Thing absorbs the wealth of human (and alien) knowledge when it assimilates. That's how it knows how to craft a small UFO, that's how it knows English. If Childs knew the difference between booze and kerosene, which Childs knew, Childs-thing would know it too.
I actually like the ambiguity myself, really adds to the movie.
Ayden Hall
No. Childs was a replicant. MacReady was the Thing.
Nolan Rogers
Child was human because he had an earring.

None of them were the thing because the thing didn't exist. They were all suffering from cabin fever and went crazy killing each other.
Henry Brooks
Along with this, a lot of people regard the lack of clearly visible exhalation as proof that Childs was the thing. I don;t know why so many people latch onto this. When the thing was attempting to imitate Bennings, the thing had a clearly visible breath when it screamed.
