The Floor, labeled The Down Under, was a male contestant on Inanimate Insanity Invitational who was placed on The Thinkers until the merge. He is voiced by Sam Thornbury. He placed 10th on Inanimate Insanity Invitational, being eliminated in "Pesty Besties" after he was blindsided by two of his alliance members flipping to the Looney Baloonies to quickly gain control of the vote. He then became a co-host in "Home is Where the Heart is" due to him being unable to leave the island, and by extension, the competition.
Appearance[]
The Floor is simply a face that mostly appears on the ground. His face always looks the same, though his color and size can change depending on what terrain he is occupying. He is known to do his signature grin as presented in the intro.
Personality[]
The Floor is quite cheerful and a generally good-humored person. He enjoys eavesdropping on others' conversations and occasionally offering his own commentary. However, he has shown to be angered if stepped on, specifically his face, as he scolded OJ for unknowingly stepping on him in "Stranded in Paradise". The Floor is forthright when voicing his opinions or concerns, and often will scare others by shouting erratically to be heard from below them. He can, however, forget important details long after they're relevant.
He's been shown to be rather selfless and willing to help anyone in need, such as in Home Is Where the Heart Is where, despite not wanting to leave the island, he comforted Cabby and gave her the opportunity to capture him to bring to MePhone4 for the challenge. He's also shown to be very easily trusting of others, also shown in the episode when he immediately befriends Nickel's butterfly, stating he trusts it implicitly before promptly being betrayed by it.
Abilities[]
The Floor has the following abilities:
- Grounded Teleportation: The Floor has the ability to transfer himself to different parts of the ground, such as from the top of a cliff to the ground below. He's also capable of transferring himself to other inanimate objects.
- Earthquakes: When angered, The Floor has been shown to be able to cause earthquakes on the island he inhibits, as well as possibly being able to cause volcanic eruptions.
- Size Enhancement: In Home Is Where the Heart Is, as Silver Spoon waves goodbye at The Floor, thinking he's getting smaller, The Floor makes himself (more specifically, his face) much bigger.
- Terraforming: The Floor has the ability to modify parts of the island he's currently occupying, such as in Friend or Froze where he builds a wall on the island from scratch.

Trivia[]
- The word "The" is part of The Floor's name and is capitalized.[1]
- Depending on the situation, The Floor can be either the largest and widest contestant or the smallest.
- Thus far, The Floor has been shown to be a part of grass, sand, the top of Paradise's volcano as well as the lava within it, a basket, a hot air balloon, the ocean floor, and the wooden flooring of the Calm-Down Cabana.
- This means that The Floor can occupy man-made flooring, inanimate objects, and even liquids, not just natural terrain.
- In Home Is Where the Heart Is, he's also shown to be able to be picked up in several ways, including by someone digging up a piece of the land he is occupying.
- The Floor's coloring depends entirely on what ground he is occupying. For example, he is typically green when on the grass, but can be tan when on the sand.
- The Floor has stage fright, despite being the stage.
- The Floor is one of few characters that speaks with an accent that differs from the majority of contestants, the others being Suitcase, Silver Spoon, Tea Kettle, Taco and Yin-Yang.
- The Floor is the third limbless contestant (The other limbless contestants are Goo and Box.)
- The Floor is the third and final limbless contestant to be eliminated, meaning that all of the limbless contestants have been eliminated in Inanimate Insanity Invitational.
- The Floor is the only limbless contestant to make it to the merge.
- The Floor was the only male eliminated since the merge until Yin-Yang got eliminated.
- The Floor is the first contestant of the original Thinkers to be eliminated since OJ in "The Overthinkers", if one does not count the team shuffling in "Best Served Cold".
- According to a Tweet, The Floor is rooting for Suitcase to win Inanimate Insanity II. This is not a coincidence, as Suitcase shares the same voice actor as him.[2]
- According to himself in Home Is Where the Heart Is, The Floor is not able to leave Paradise.
- This might not be true, as he's been seen occupying objects outside of the island like he did with the basket and the hot air balloon in the same episode.
