About the I Fear No Man Meme

Three panels from a Team Fortress 2 fan video. Top: The Heavy character in interview silhouette with baked text "I fear no man." Bottom-left: Same character with "But that thing..." Bottom-right: A blank white square next to "it scares me." The blank panel is the punchline canvas where the user places whatever their one fear is.

From a Team Fortress 2 fan video featuring the Heavy character in a mock interview format. The "I fear no man, but that thing... it scares me" quote became a meme template around 2017 for expressing irrational fears of specific mundane things. The blank white square in the bottom-right panel is the canvas. Everything else is baked in. For a broader comparison of fears, see the "two fears" format.

How to Make a I Fear No Man Meme

  1. The I Fear No Man template has 1 text field in the blank white square.
  2. Type whatever specifically terrifies you in that square.
  3. Keep it brief since the surrounding baked text sets the scene.
  4. Use a plain font; the white panel background needs readable dark text.
  5. Download and share your one irrational fear with the world.
