Anakin's kill streak was soo high, he created a new tradition.
The tuskens said "you could make a religion out of this!"
Anakin didn't kill the tusken raiders
@@Fries_TasteGood yeah he did
Maul also killed a few on Tatoonine to try to break Anakin's old record.
Lol
@@connorroberts6856 “vader” did
Tusken Raiders: Capture human and slowly torture them to death
The demon: did not like that
The demon: murders entire tribe
Tusken Raiders: Capture more humans and sacrifice them to satiate the demon
The demon: Confused and angry Darth Vader noises
I can only imagine what that sounds like
@@highpeddle9543 heavy breathing
Funny thing is that Vader does return to Tatooine at one point after ANH. Once he is done with his business on the planet, he takes a little side diversion before leaving the planet by killing all of the tuskin raiders in a nearby tribe. One managed to survive miraculously and tell the story of the massacre to another tribe. They build a statue of Vader to worship him before sacrificing the survivor.
@@highpeddle9543 probably how he sounded at the end of ep 3
@@shadow9774 lord Vader once again showed his ferocious anger ._.)
That seen from New Hope makes way more sense now. The Tusken Raiders thought Obi-Wan was Anakin
Iirc, the official explanation is that Obi-wan scared them off by (somehow) mimicking a krayt dragon
@@kimballbelliston5925 to me the scene looks like a man in a robe fleeing from the Krayt dragon on the other side of the ridge he just came over.
@@codename1176 either way imagine either seeing the mostly evil and murderous spirit in your pantheon pop his head out from the corner and making his way briskly towards you *OR* there’s some off world moron who pissed off the apex predator of your area and you need to leave before shit hits the fan you you become the shit
Apparently they actually fear Obi-Wan almost as much, he goes around fighting them without killing any of them so often that they see him as a boogeyman too.
why would they think that?
13:21 the Tusken Raiders combine with sand AND High Ground, No wonder Anakin hates them.
Lmaooo
Holy shit.....😶🤭🤣🤣👏💯
Combination of Anakin's pain
I'm a year late but they also killed his mom...
He hates *all of them.*
Anakin: *Dies*
Tusken killed by him: "This is where fun begins!"
Correction tuskens
The one thing I do know about tusken raiders went unmentioned:
At one point a large band of farmers were very angry at the tusken raiders and wanted to hunt them all down but obi wan stopped it and went to save the person who created this mess. The Tusken raiders spotted him and in their attack he almost succumbed to the dark side but kept his cool and cut a piece of clothing off of every member of that tribe. After that word spread and the tusken raiders saw it as a man who managed to defeat an entire tribe without killing one. the opposite of the demon, whenever the shadowy figure would approach they knew to run as shown in a new hope
Wow that's very cool
Yeah where's that story? Sounds pretty cool.
@@undefinedindefinitely2904 I don't remember where I heard that but it is quite cool
Tusken raiders stay taking L’s 😂
@@nukanszn8237 indeed
The novelization of "The Phantom Menace" relays a story about, a pre-Jedi encounter, Anakin Skywalker saving an injured Tusken Raider. It is a very interesting story that emphasizes the depth of the change from light to dark within Anakin.
Tusken story teller: "And the demon slaughtered not not only the men but the women and children also, so now we leave sacrifices for him so he does not come back."
And every other tribe be like: “YOU MISSPOKE HOW THE STORY IS, KILL THEM ALL”
@@spikey6694 goddamn grammar nazis

Vader, 20 years later: Alright, that's it, I'm going Infinite Empire.
Yoda had good relations with the Wookiees.

That right
Obi Wan had good relations to the Pirates
Anakin had good relations with sand

Wait til you see the first two episodes about book of Boba Fett !
MetaNerdz trying to pronounce Tusken Raider names is now my new favorite thing
It was the best part of star wars bounty hunter
Trying to see what tusken raiders look like underneath those robes can take you to a weird place
idc whats under the headgear i just wanna see how its done. that scene in the book of boba fett wheres he gets robed up is great but i wanna see how they do the headddddd.
17:44 in Vedic religion it’s believed that you don’t even have to understand a mantra for it to benefit you, the resonance of the sound alone is what’s holy.
Yes Sanskrit is the divine language & the words have meaning of its own even without the meaning we give to them
Oh. So Anakin just made the Tuskens more superstitious. Great. Thanks Anakin.
Especially with his developing Sith face and laser sword, I'm sure to them he looked like a demon! The Jedi younglings would agree.
Yup. Superstitious and terrified to the point of killing even more innocent people in sacrifice. Oh, Ani, you do too much.
I mean I honestly can't blame him for that reaction to it (Luke did the same thing for his aunt and uncle to an entire Death Star, did he not?), but ffs these guys can't take a hint. "Huh, this dude showed up and killed all of us for torturing a human. Let's kill more humans for him."
@@calebdonaldson8770 I like to think that they would interpret Vader's mask as a deathly reflection of their own. Almost like how we associate skulls with death. The two masks have a lot of similarities.
@@PosthumanHeresy It's not like they know why he killed them. Anakin massacred the tribe, all that the other tuskens know is that some crazy guy with a magical sword killed an entire tribe.

Can. Someone explain what I’m reading?
The part where you mentioned the connection to the storytellers and Hinduism, it also reminds me of something I was taught in my Classical Mythology class, where the Greeks would have storytellers who would gather citizens in amphitheaters or similar spaces and then recite the myths in several-hour-long stints. And if you made one mistake you would be mocked for decades to come. Fathers would tell children about the time Atalanticus told the tale of Zeus Keraunos (Thundering Zeus) when it should have been about Zeus Astrapaios (Zeus of Lightning) or the time Aion, in this very amphitheater, stuttered in the last line of a seven hour story. The poor guys would have to leave town and hope they could travel far enough to get away from the mocking. You know how in those shitty teen angst movies where the bully is mocking the protagonist about that one time his pants ripped in preschool and everybody laughs like it’s the sickest burn ever, imagine that but with togas and 40 year old men.
Cool story! Ευχαριστώ πολύ
With regards to your query at the end of the video, Arabic tribes in the Arabic peninsula used to meet in market towns , specially during times of festivals, each tribe had its own reciter who'd memorize the tribe's poetry and also make his own and recite them in poetry battles. This tradition was later continued in Islam , where ''Huffaz'' (which translates into ''Memorizers'') would memorize the Quran word for word and recite it to the tribes during prayers or during memory contests.
This was sooo interesting. I honestly didn't know anything about Tusken lore till now. 💛🤍🖤
Reminds me of how the Tuskens were portrayed in KOTOR
Before this they were basically just people living in the desert lol
So basically Tuscan raiders are space Amish people lol
Tuscan raiders = space Taliban
@@alphapham2060 🤣🤣🤣
They were more influenced by the Northern African tribe where Tatoonie was filmed (Tunisia) but they also have similarities to Arabian Peninsula tribes like the “clan, tribe system - the stories of the tribes and clans” if you watch the book of boba fett episode 2 there is parallels with Lawrence of Arabia
More like Spess Afghans + Native Americans.
I never knew that The Czerka Corp owned/operated all the Sand Crawlers before the Jawas. Thank you Metanerdz your content is fantastic. I learn something new everytime
It's strange that the term Tusken Raiders sounds so benign as a phrase, yet it's a derogatory word for them, while the name Sand People sounds more derogatory but is actually the preferred nomenclature
Fantastic, always liked the sand people. Loved them in the mandalorion.
I know this might sound petty, but could you PLEASE release part 3 of boba fetts life?
The use of the sign language is actually base on a form of sign language used by North American fur trappers to communicate with different Native American tribes
I've always thought the design of the Tusken Raiders were some of the coolest looking in Star Wars.
The Tusken Raiders are actually just a bunch of really nice guys according to the Mandalorian Season 2 Episode 1.
Racist Savages that kill you on sight if your human and don't tell Peta about them lol
Tell that to Shmi
I'm pretty sure this is the most valuable star wars channel on entire youtube.
Can u do the Sith species and what it was like to live in a Sith empire
Sith is not a species. It is a creed like Mandalorians. That is why Maul and Palpatine were both considered Sith but are different species. Fun fact, Dooku was not a Sith. He never did anything evil. Therefore, his eyes never turned to the dark side. He was able to achieve balance and use both sides equally. I think Ginn would have been proud personally. You?
Yautja Prime do your research most definitely you do not know anything about the old republic
@@wafalme851 I'm well aware but much of that isn't canon anymore. If you know so much then why ask for a video on the topic?
Yautja Prime he brings up information that even I don’t know I’m not well-versed on the old republic but I want to the Sith empire is better than the Republic
@@blaze556922 m8, there was a sith species they went extinct due to inter breeding and war. I’m pretty sure that’s still considered cannon.
GUYS WE DID IT, METANERDZ LORE GOT ANOTHER SPONSOR,
I'm sincerely happy that large companies look after this not so small channel, this channel made me got into so much of star wars
I wonder how rare a Tusken Raider Jedi would be, I know we have Darth Krayt, but that’s about it
Darth Krayt and his dad and Tahiri veila. That's about it though.
@@JediAcolyte94 there was a female Tusken Raider Jedi? Cool
Well, there are likely Force-Sensitive Tuskens who become the Shamans and Spirit Guides for many of the tribes. Highly regarded and revered for the position.
They may not be on the same level as that of a Jedi but they have a connection to the Force and the Force Guides them and they look for answer and meaning in their viewings into the great expanse. So with the line of thinking. They are hidden away some place. Far removed from the hunting and gathering. Living off what offerings other tribes bring as payment to get answers in all sorts of matters. Be it how well a hunt will go to grander matters that simply cannot be agreed upon and need answers from the "Spirits".
@@macwelch8599 well Tahiri was human but raised by Tuskens
Rarer than a Hutt jedi.
With the Book of Boba ep.2, Tatooine not always being a desert world is now canon.
Perfect timing from the season two episode two of the Mandolorian! Also would you ever consider doing the sand dragon form S2E2?
Keep it up!
Lmfaooo @ the pronunciation of the tusken names. That cracked me up way too much. Thanks metanerdz 😎
Another Middle-Eastern influence is seen in their Cycler Rifles which are based on Jezails, Pashtun (or Afghan) rifles similar to muskets.
Fun fact: The Jezails Rifles were far better then their European equivalent at the time.
I loved this one, the flow of this video was literally perfect bro good job! Those last facts were so interesting too!!
Woah.
Well done. Thank you. I remembered that I highly enjoyed the Tuscan experience as a highlight in KOTOR. Now that we’ve had the Mando stuff and even more the Boba story, there is so much more meaning.
okay need to back up here. Hett was born into the tusken raiders cause his father was a missing jedi who fell in love with a female tusken raider and was even their leader and after his father was killed, ki adi mundi took younger hett on as his apprentice.
then after order 66 hett went back to tatooine to go into hiding and took up the leadership of his clan's tribe like his father once was.
but, hett fell to the darkside and became darth krayte.
I thought humans couldn't breed with Tuskens
So cool to see Book of Boba Fett give some more screen time of showing the Tuskan people. I'm sure it will show even more about their culture in upcoming episodes🙌🙌🙌
Kinda wild how much of it is just an adaption of KOTOR.
I think theyre quickly becoming my favorite race in the franchise
Each tusken raider is actually 2 jawas inside a big robe
MetaNerdz: "And remember *tusken sounds* "
Every Tusken in a 10 mile radius: *disgusted with the grammatical errors and filled with wonder why would one look for a ice toilet in a middle of the desert*
So glad to have found your channel, tons of great stuff
Bruh, them closing words, always loved your dedication man jaja
Oh my god dying 😭 💀 🤣 😂 when he read the names!!!! Hahaha
In SWTOR Jedi Consular story it says there was 4 species, 1 died out, one became Jawa, one the sand people, and an unknown fourth species who fight and died to the sand people.
One of the best lore channels, keep producing bro
Best ending to one of your videos EVER!!!! And one of your best to data. May The Force Be With You Always. This Is The Way.
Be cool if Tuscan rite of passage would be to jump into sarlacc, if you manage to escape you pass the test.
Complete life of R2-D2 would be cool, but i also really enjoy these historic videos, do one on the Black Sun please.
Thanks for the Video! Good stuff. It was interesting to learn about the first star wars character/action figure I ever got back in the 70's.
Your attempts to pronounce Tuskin names and the few words or phrases were great. Very funny. Thanks!
great vid, took awhile to watch as a paused rewound etc etc many time to take it all in.
Very in depth video . I never knew all these things about them
Love this, well done!
Awesome video!
The Book of Boba Fett E2 gave us a glimpse. Thanks for your video!
Yet ANOTHER good one for CANON, bro!! keep it up!!!
And now we know that all tribes are different thanks to the book of boba fett
Very interesting and informative!
Great video cool to know more about them
Great video 👍 I hadn't seen your channel until now. As you know KOTOR 1 gives us a starship's worth of Tusken history.
Love the Tuskens. Great video!
The Tusken Raiders woke up that morning hearing Boss Music.
Imagine people like this exist on some other planet or have existed in the past somewhere
Fun fact : at 17:15, KKH'OAR'RRHR is pronounced Hoar, yeah, Hoar.. xD he was a tusken fighter from the PS1 game Masters of Teras Kasi.
Great video, thanks!
I'm here after the first episode of the book of boba fett lol
A character I always loved was Ferus Olin. I remember reading all his books at the library. There seems to be no love or any videos on him? You probably could get a nice video about him.
Ferus Olin's day off...
XD
🤣
The memorization of storytelling was also an Arab tradition. They memorized many poems and stories where the best poets are looked on with high regard. Even the Quran is still memorized letter for letter word for word until now by many
I think it's true some cultures thought of the written word as kind of evil.
As is the Torah. What’s your point?
Loved it!
What a good video to have made for now
Such a fun sound to make
The Sand People are easily startled, but they'll soon be back, and in greater numbers.
The two dislikes are by anakin and vader
Lol
You need to update this with the new Book of Boba Fet information and cannon.
In the first two episodes of "The Book Of Boba Fett" The traditions and life style are further explored.
2:55 is that Sokka from Avatar the last air bender lmao
8:19 who else thought that was an eyeball when they first saw the episode?
I realize how this will sound, but i knew it was the krayt dragon pearl as soon as i saw it. The entire time i was watching it i was wondering if they were going to essentially put the krayt hunt mission from KOTOR into star wars canon, and they did.
@@davedavidson8208 ive never played kotor but i have studied the history and characters of the old republic
@@commander-5254 in my opinion. KOTOR takes the cake. it really has THE best stories and feel to a star wars game. It's quite old now, but man, it's wroth it to play.
@@davedavidson8208 agreed
Great video! Just curious, but what book or comic did Luke's Canon dream come from?
Yknow, Tusken Raiders’ slug rifles look a lot like middle eastern Jezails.
thank you
Excellent! Now much of this was the focus of Book of Boba Feta e1&2.
So around 4:30 when you say that they did not have the capacity to become Jedi, this does not seem to mean they were not force sensitive at all. In mentioning the human-born Tuskens and in particular A'Sharad Hett, you seemed to miss out on one particular Tusken Raider who actually was force sensitive and was partly trained by Hett, that being the very same Kkh'Oar'Rrhr (Hoar for short) you mentioned at 17:15. The picture you used wasn't him, although you got the tribe right, as he was one of the only survivors of the same tribe Anakin massacred to avenge his mother, but Hoar was actually out bonding with a bantha at the time, so he wasn't there. Hoar was found and taken in by A'Sharad Hett's tribe, and for years he lived among them without much of note. That is until one day, he went to the house of a "wizard" (Obi-Wan) and found Anakin's lightsaber. Upon touching it, he had a vision of Vader that shocked and confused him, and fled the house when the "wizard" returned home. Upon returning to his tribe, he told them all how he bravely fought the wizard in his escape, and told them of his vision. Hett realized then that Hoar was actually force-sensitive and began training him to use his abilities as well as teaching him rudimentary Galactic Basic, and he gradually become something of an idol figure for younger Tuskens of his tribe. Hett would eventually duel Obi-Wan before the latter unmasked him before his tribe, leading to his banishment and leaving Tatooine entirely, though Hoar never stopped looking up to his master. Later, Hoar and a few of those young Tuskens left Tatooine in search of Hett as well, part of Hoar's quest to find Vader and avenge his tribe. In this journey they joined the Grave Tuskens, and Hoar was trained further by a Dark Jedi named Arden Lyn.
Hoar's journey to find Vader wasn't without confusion, as at one point he mistook a hologram of Luke Skywalker for Anakin and figured that must have been the demon. But then he ended up meeting Vader and wondered if there were two demons that slaughtered his tribe, or if they were the same being. Hoar did end up fighting Vader eventually, though the actual ending is considered non-canon, in that ending Vader was nearly defeated by Hoar until his apprentice, Tao, sacrificed himself to save his master. Tao is obviously not canon. But the fight itself is considered canon in some capacity, though I don't know if we know the outcome. Sources don't list Hoar's death, so it may be open to interpretation.
What I believe was meant by Tuskens not being capable of becoming Jedi is that they either lacked the ability to have such discipline or they simply didn't understand the difference between the Light and Dark sides. Hoar's training under Hett did focus on channeling his aggression, and he seemed to have little to no qualms about training under a Dark Jedi. Hoar likely didn't understand there was any other way to even use the Force, and wouldn't have had the discipline necessary to separate himself from worldly attachments or refrain from using his emotions and channeling them through the Force. But he could use the Force, and even turned one of his people's traditional Gaderffii sticks into a lightsaber, he was ironically probably a Jedi in the same sense as Anakin was given his emotions and attachments.
Honestly I'd rather we get a show about this guy. I want to see this backwater Tusken fighting Vader.
I love Tusken Raiders!
Do you have an idea when part 3 of bobas life will be released
Wooooo Tuscan raiders are super cool
You missed an opportunity slip in a Harold meme and talk about Tuscans being almost human and how alot of their lore ends in their deaths
you should update it to the new book of boba fett...it shows alot more..such as the forging of there weaponry and i think the intiation..idk fully since its hard when the only one i can understand is boba fett
You'd figure at some point, somebody would have removed the head covering from a Tusken Raider to find out what they looked like.
15:16 I don’t know why but this is my favorite piece of trivia for the sand people
Favorite species
Awesome
Nice to see SWG screenshots!
What other people hear from tusken raiders:
