Without only the strongest potions, the knight would die. If it’s true that the potion seller’s potions would kill the knight, then the knight will die either way. At least the potion seller could make some coin off the knight before he died.
I always got the impression that the knight intended to use the potions against his enemies. Although, that may be due to the version I saw changing it so that the knight said he was about to fight a dragon after the seller stated the potion would kill one.
I got drunk at a party once and I kept referring to the bartender as potion seller, and telling him to sell me his strongest potions. It got old really fast but I was too drunk to realise, so I kept doing it.

Lyrics: Hello potion seller, I’m going into battle and I want your strongest potions My potions are too strong for you, traveller Potion seller, I tell you I’m going into battle and I want only your strongest potions You can’t handle my potions, they are too strong for you Potion seller, listen to me, I want only your strongest potions My potions would kill you traveller, you cannot handle my potions Potion seller, enough of these games, I’m going to battle and I need your strongest potions My strongest potions would kill you traveller, you can’t handle my strongest potions.You better go to a seller that sells weaker potions Potion seller, I’m telling you right now, I’m going into battle and I need only your strongest potions You don’t know what you asked traveller, my strongest potions would kill a dragon, let alone a man. You need a seller that sells weaker potions, because my potions are too strong Potion seller, I’m telling you I need your strongest potions, I’m going into a battle, I’m going to battle, and I need your strongest potions You can’t handle my strongest potions. No one can, my strongest potions are fit for a beast, let alone a man Potion seller what do I have to tell you to get your potions? Why won’t you trust me with your strongest potions, potion seller? I need them if I’m to be successful in the battle I can’t give you my strongest positions, because my strongest potions are only for the strongest beings and you are of the weakest Well then, that’s it potion seller, I’ll go elsewhere, I’ll go elsewhere for my potions That’s what you better do I’ll go elsewhere for my potions and I’ll never come back Good, you are not welcome here. My potions are only for the strongest and you are clearly not of the strongest, you are clearly of the weakest You have had your say, potion seller, but I’ll have mine. You’re a rascal; you’re a rascal with no respect for the knights, no respect for anything except your potions Why respect the knights? When my potions can do anything that you can?
I love the subtleties of this piece, like how the Knight is confident and stoic when he enters, while the Potion Seller is rather meek and introverted, speaking little. As the story continues, the characters develop, the Knight is flustered by the refusal of service and becomes at first irritated, then angered, then flat out desperate to obtain what the Potion Seller possesses. He exposes his core character flaw, that he is frightened of battle and doesn't trust himself to succeed without a performance enhancing drug. The Potion Seller becomes bolder, speaking more often and confidently, emboldened by the Knight's clear insecurities and pleading. These character flaws only make the Potion Seller more certain of his refusal of service and by the end he demands that the Knight leaves and underlines the core theme, that the Knight believes that the potions are worth more than anything a Knight can achieve naturally, and so he states that the potions are capable of anything that the Knight can do.
more like "drug seller, I need..." - "ay man I've got everything, weed, coke, crack, you can have anything, anything you want, just go ahead and buy some of my drugs, my drugs are fit for anyone, anyone at all, no matter who you are, my drugs are a good way to get intoxicated"
What, like on New Year's Day? "Hey, are you ready for the countdown? We've got the champagne ready to pop!" "Sorry, I can't come. I'm making sure that a highly emotional knight with a chin that could drill a hole into a brick wall gets the potions he so richly deserves from an arrogant potion seller that knows the truth behind the knight's weakness and is bluntly removing his self-confidence for reasons not even God himself knows. Don't worry, I'll be back in a bit more than three minutes."
If you've seen Past Lives, the heartbreakingly beautiful Celine Song film, the husband is based on this guy. Strange to think about, but I'm happy for him!

I'm gonna be honest, I'm a dungeon master, and I wrote a Dungeons & Dragons campaign where Potion Seller is a key recurring character throughout the story and it's my proudest achievement to date
I'm convinced this video hasn't been seen by loads of people at all, and the millions of views are actually the same people coming back to it over and over again.
Skyrim. I don't need to try anymore. The game broke and all my potions are like 1000x more effective than they should be. my character just dopes constantly and nothing can kill him anymore. Its a curse
I love that you can hear somebody laugh in the background at 1:31 which just makes him break a little. The idea that you would do this in the same house as somebody has such a powerful energy
Not only that, but he turned his laugh into the knight breaking down into tears. All of Justin's videos are ad-libbed and he's a master of improvisation.

As the story continues, the characters develop, the Knight is flustered by the refusal of service and becomes at first irritated, then angered, then flat out desperate to obtain what the Potion Seller possesses.
He exposes his core character flaw, that he is frightened of battle and doesn't trust himself to succeed without a performance enhancing drug. The Potion Seller becomes bolder, speaking more often and confidently, emboldened by the Knight's clear insecurities and pleading.
These character flaws only make the Potion Seller more certain of his refusal of service and by the end he demands that the Knight leaves and underlines the core theme, that the Knight believes that the potions are worth more than anything a Knight can achieve naturally, and so he states that the potions are capable of anything that the Knight can do.

This should have millions of likes
@@tdk2668 I appreciate that
@skin09588 why? This is a cool ass elaboration!
sir this is a wendys
this is how I imagine buying drugs works.
more like "drug seller, I need..." - "ay man I've got everything, weed, coke, crack, you can have anything, anything you want, just go ahead and buy some of my drugs, my drugs are fit for anyone, anyone at all, no matter who you are, my drugs are a good way to get intoxicated"
Its very similar
Only when you're already on drugs
Knights dont buy drugs, they sell them.
Buying drugs is alot like this on drugs (depending on what u on)
Script writer, I need your strongest love triangle drama.
My love triangles are too strong for you Italian man.
*man, the new elder scrolls characters are pretty cool*
Flame Werewolf still all have the same voice actor though. 🤦🏻♀️damn.🤣
This video is literally alchemy in morrowind.
Mochi Love idk if you know this but in Skyrim most of the male character are voiced by the same guy, so it works pretty well lol
"You've had your say potion seller, but I'll have mine."
“You’re a rascal!”
"You're a rascal with no respect for Knights!"
NO RESPECT FOR ANYTHING. EXCEPT YOUR P O T I O N S
Why respect knights...?
When my *potions* can do *anything* that *you* can...?
*quicksaves*
_Legend says he still cant handle the strongest potions._
Nobody cannnn
Wrong. This knight was the chosen one. He would of been able to handle the potion because he's the protagonist of the story
As someone else mentioned... plot twist the man only made poisons so the knight would have died as he made the strongest poisons
Looks like the legend has different ending in each country.
In my country the potion seller was a Sursian spy trying to ruin the country of Marciae by not selling the strongest potions to the knights.
this guy wrote that tennis movie "challengers" that's coming out soon, but his talent has been apparent from the start
This influenced me a lot more than it should have

It is incredible in the purest definition of the word that this came out on the same day as Dark Souls.
Oh my god
His strongest potion is the Estus flask
Bruh
huh what are the odds?
He was waiting for the game to finish installing so he could buy only the strongest of potions
Absolutely wild that this dude would go on to write a film that made 100 million at the box office (Challengers)
I feel like this is a conversation between an underage teenager trying to buy beer and a drugstore clerk
Hello Gas Station Clerk, I'm going to a Party, and I want your Strongest Vodkas.
My Vodkas are too strong for you, customer.
Gas Station Clerk, I tell you I am going to a party, and I want only your Strongest Vodkas.
@@losercubics1987 You can’t handle my vodkas. They’re too strong for you.

Do you have the amulet of kings?
I don't know you, and I don't care to know you.
You have my ear,citizen.
Every year I come back to check if he's finally strong enough for the potions.
What, like on New Year's Day?
"Hey, are you ready for the countdown? We've got the champagne ready to pop!"
"Sorry, I can't come. I'm making sure that a highly emotional knight with a chin that could drill a hole into a brick wall gets the potions he so richly deserves from an arrogant potion seller that knows the truth behind the knight's weakness and is bluntly removing his self-confidence for reasons not even God himself knows. Don't worry, I'll be back in a bit more than three minutes."
I come back to this once every year or so. It's strangely comforting, a reminder of simpler times. Ah man. When did we get old.
Amen to that, still waiting to feel like an adult.
potion man, take by the hand, lead me to the land that you understand
Potion man, for I can not stand, laying on the sand, without your brew brands.
Oh . I found the bards !
Potion man, the voyage into battle for the globe is a real trip.
I just spit everywhere
Potion man, the author of a brand not fit for a man, rejecting all the knights that he can
"Why respect knights, when my potions can do anything that you can" such a brutal line to end on
I’m going to have this potion seller in my next D&D game.
Yo let me know how it goes LMAO
This potion seller was in my last game, my dm is awesome
I'm making a Homebrew for the Potion Seller, lol!
900th like you’re welcome
Ooh, make it dangerous
If you've seen Past Lives, the heartbreakingly beautiful Celine Song film, the husband is based on this guy. Strange to think about, but I'm happy for him!
This man has single-handedly inspired me to write characters
but can they handle his strongest potions
This Potion Seller is in my D&D game. He acts the same. He sounds the same. His potions are too strong for the characters.
@@alexsimonenko465 nope. Do it my man. Characters will buy the potions, and give it some bad consequences
@@ASuspiciousCrab Yes! My players will never forget the phrase "please roll a constitution check for me..."

He went from this to writing a play, a book, and a feature length film. All of them award winning
Imagine the roommate who lived with him. "Oh god that weirdo that talked into photobooth on his 2006 MacBook when he had writer's block? Thank god I never spoke to him again. Oh. Wha- he's written a movie starring Zendaya now?! And he's authored a book, what the heck???"
I love that he's cracking up.
That or on the verge of crying.
James Miller of course he’s crying, the potion seller won’t give him his strongest potions!
I'm gonna be honest, I'm a dungeon master, and I wrote a Dungeons & Dragons campaign where Potion Seller is a key recurring character throughout the story and it's my proudest achievement to date
That is AMAZING
Does he sell potions or just say the players are weak?
And none of them killed him?
Im a DM too... I need to find a way to fit this in x'D
@@IronBahamut his potions can do anything the knight can, he would win.

what the
Could you please tell me the links? It's fine if you don't want to but I would love to see them
I think we all want to see these.
You can't just say this and NOT give the website links.
*LINKS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN* 🥺
*Why is this the longest video on the internet But it’s only 3 mins*
I kept looking at the runtime...
Uncle Terry repetition is a wonderful technique
Probably because it’s his face and forehead
Took me 4 viewings to finish the damn thing
Because his potions are too strong
I saw the vision.... I could sense this guy was a writing genius from 13 years ago.
Yea sex is cool but have you tried his strongest potions?
No!! They would kill a dragon let alone a man!
No one has
No, they are for the strongest.
666th like from me.
Nah cause I can't handle them
When you try to buy alcohol underage
When you try to buy potions underage
If you got a friend that is lvl 21 that can buy those potions and you tell him to trade for the potions
jokes aside, "why respect knights when my potions can do that anything you can?" is actually raw
It's actually a really terrifying line that I expect from a movie not
This
Even though this is perhaps the greatest movie of all time
Okay but if his potions are fit for a beast then he can't use them, thus making his potions worthless to himself
@@crash1108 A missile guidance program is useless to a programmer, but it can multiply the effectiveness of a rocket 100 fold.

Skyrim. I don't need to try anymore. The game broke and all my potions are like 1000x more effective than they should be. my character just dopes constantly and nothing can kill him anymore. Its a curse
Potion seller. The king of England is dying of cancer, and he needs only your strongest potions.
My potions will kill him, traveler. He cannot handle my potions.
@@TobDissy Potion seller, I tell you the king of England is dying of cancer, and he needs only your strongest potions.
I love that you can hear somebody laugh in the background at 1:31 which just makes him break a little. The idea that you would do this in the same house as somebody has such a powerful energy
Not only that, but he turned his laugh into the knight breaking down into tears. All of Justin's videos are ad-libbed and he's a master of improvisation.
Nice catch. I m8ssed that.
I always love how he transformed his laughing into crying to stay in character.
Now that is what I call maximum acting.
