Gibs or giblets are the bits and pieces of a player's body that are left after the player has been killed in a specific manner, often explosive in nature. When a player is gibbed, their body parts may be highlighted on the Deathcam. Deaths caused by rockets,[1] grenades,[1] stickybombs, the Eyelander, the Scotsman's Skullcutter, the Claidheamh Mòr, the Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker, the Half-Zatoichi, the Engineer's Organ Grinder taunt or the Soldier's Kamikaze taunt, and Horseless Headless Horsemann kills result in the creation of gibs. Additionally, the Horseless Headless Horsemann always drops its own unique gibs on death.
The term gibs also encapsulates debris left by destroyed buildings,[2] stickybombs,[2] Electro Sappers,[2] Razorbacks, Guitars, props, and the fallout from the explosion upon the attacking teams' victory on the final stage of a Payload map. "Gib" can also be used as a verb, e.g. "gibbing" someone, meaning reducing an enemy to gibs by blowing them up with a rocket or grenade.
Players can gib themselves on command by entering explode into the console (similar to suiciding by entering kill).
The server setting tf_playergib can also be used to modify gibbing behaviour: when it is set to 0, players will not gib at all, no matter what kills them. When set to 1 (the default setting), gibbing behaviour is as normal. Finally, with the setting tf_playergib 2, players will gib when killed by practically any means - be it a Backstab, an environmental kill, or a humble Shotgun blast.

Bugs
- Notification boxes that label the bodypart appear on censored gibs, even in the censored versions of Team Fortress 2.
- The Engineer's right hand gib will always be his glove, even when the Gunslinger is equipped.
- Gibs, like the ÜberCharge textures, with the exception of the Soldier's on BLU, do not show the class' final designs. For example, a gibbed Scout has a different shoe design, and his socks have stripes.
- In addition to this, the default gib textures are low resolution. There are multiple fixes to this on sites such as GameBanana
- If a player wearing a hat is gibbed, their hat will either disappear, or appear alongside the default hat in the player's gibs.
