ahm yeah so.. wouldn't the liququid luck make you find an antidote if you chose so? or even just a spell to avoid any drawback? because in that case.. the point of toxicity is pretty irrelevant to me and does not even make sense, since getting poisoned is quite unlucky and should not be happening
Yeah, several times. You were supposed to. It's sort of like a joke subliminal suggestion, to make you think Ben is figuring out a difficult puzzle like Hermione would. Problem is, I think Ben's wrong this time. ;-)
The golden flame was the pheonix feather core taking liberty. Pottermore states that "They show the most initiative, sometimes acting of their own accord, a quality that many witches and wizards dislike". This is why I think the golden flames occurred. P.S not dissing the theory, just stating my opinion
Doors can be enchanted against it probably like the key room in stone ron tries alohomora and it does t work but the door into fluffys room does work (makes me wonder why they didnt do the same to that door and dumbledoore just would keep the key....
On Pottermore, J.K. Rowling says that wands with phoenix cores have a tendency to perform magic on their own, often to the owner's dismay. I don't believe it has anything to do with the horcrux. When Voldemort kills Harry in Deathly Hallows, Harry does not have his phoenix feather wand with him, so his wand does not defend itself.
SuperCarlinBrothers Plot hole, maybe? It's magic, so maybe the wand just knew that Harry didn't need help in that moment. It could be that the wand only acts when it's owner is powerless otherwise, such as on the motorbike when Harry was almost unconscious.
I think in the Ministry of Magic the most important thing is Harry's overwhelming grief/love for Sirius. Love was always the thing that shut out Voldy's connection and probably suppressed the horcrux (a thing of evil that probably recoils from love) significantly. As to rogue phoenix wands...that is probably what JKR was going for because the wandlore is so important. But I prefer this theory.
Maybe the wand didn't do anything in the department of mysteries because Harry was able to and meant to use the wand to defend himself. In the other case Voldemort was about to kill him but he was almost unconscious and couldn't do anything about it.
Maybe Snape DID use liquid luck the night Lilly died. Liquid Luck isn't all powerful- it allows you to have favorable outcomes within certain limits. Dumbedore's Army was completely infused with liquid luck at the end of book 6, and it didn't stop the Death Eaters from getting in with a werewolf, Bill being mutilated, or the death of Dumbledore. All it did was cause some of the Death Eater's curses to miss the Army specifically. I mean, you could argue the death of Dumbledore was all part of his plan and the luck wouldn't have effected that, but the Death Eaters getting in with a werewolf? Bill getting mauled for life? Definitely proves Liquid Luck can't prevent terrible things from happening.
i don't think chance can stop an old man without defense be killed by 4 bloodthirsty psycho's, 1 schoolboy threatened with death, and one man who was commanded by *possibly* the most powerful wizard on earth
Snakie harry only gave the liquid luck to a select few. He didn't have enough for everyone but he was mainly focused on ron herminone and genny. Liquid luck only afects the one who drinks it. Not everyone else. Im sure if say herminone was around bill before he got hurt then the liquid luck would have allowed her to protect him. Harry described being on it as a feeling. Like it was guiding him. So if ron hermione or genny were around others it could have guided them on how best to protect others. Snspe could have used liquid luck on the day lilly died his reason would maybe to save the one he loved. But as we know he didn't make it in time. Or he may have taken it after to give him the luck to prove to dumbledore he is truly on his side now. Way to many possiblites. It excites and makes your head hurt all at once
What's most amazing about the HP canonical universe is that it provides us with enough information to explain away otherwise major plot holes like this.
6:03 You could also argue that Harry was borderline unconscious before, so the Horcrux stepped in like a reflex, but in the Forest Harry was awake and in control.
“I believe that your wand imbibed some of the power and qualities of Voldemort’s wand that night, which is to say that it contained a little of Voldemort himself. So your wand recognized him when he pursued you, recognized a man who was both kin and mortal enemy, and it regurgitated some of his own magic against him, magic much more powerful than anything Lucius’s wand had ever performed. Your wand now contained the power of your enormous courage and of Voldemort’s own deadly skill: What chance did that poor stick of Lucius Malfoy’s stand?” The wand probably imbibed Voldemorts power during priori incantatum when it literally reached into Voldemort's wand and forced it to regurgitate a shadow of those slain by it. A good theory of what the golden fire is would likely be pheonix fire from the pheonix feather core.
I disagree with this theory. I personally think that it is because of the unusual combination of his wand. In Pottermore, it states that a wand having Pheonix feather as their core would act upon its own accord when in mortal danger. I think it is for this reason the golden flames were produced.
The diary horcrux defence was Tom Riddle not the Baslisk also the ring still would have killed him, all snape did was slow it down hence why dumbledor told snape to kill him as he was dying anyway.
SuperCarlinBrothers Dumbledore himself says the diary was an interesting piece of magic. Tom still needed a vessel in order to command the Basilisk; Ginny controlled the Basilisk. When Tom controls the Basilisk, Tom is at his most powerful and his vessel has transferred most of her life to him. I believe his wand is responsible for the magic. From the books, it seems the wand knows its owner better than the owner will ever know its wand. Like you said, Harry's trust in Dumbledore provided enough reason for the wand to not defend Harry in OOTP. Apart from the chase, Harry was never helpless, and I think the wand was willing to help Harry.
RedChairGaming I could be wrong, but when Dumbledore made that assumption of what the diary was, it was before he has developed his theory of Voldemort having Horcuxes. The Riddle in the diary is a piece of Voldemort's soul acting through the diary, or even AS the diary.
Why does Hermione keep flashing on screen? And great theory I didn't even think about this. Haven't read the books recently but I remember this part confusing me.
Amanda Williamson Dumbledore does magic almost exclusively without a wand. It was also a minor plot point that everyone was learning how to do it (without success) in book 6.
No they were learning to do spells without talking, they were still using their wands. They never learned to do magic with just their hands. At least, that we know of in the books.
one of the professors who did the examinations in the O.W.L year later said that Dumbledore did things with a wand he had never seen any student to do before. so he must have figured out how to do magic without the wand. as the professor said no other student had done such things with a wand.
Amanda Williamson They spoke about it again before the movie Fantastic Beasts came out. There is a text from Pottermore explaining the magical schools around the world, in the African school there is a tradition of making spells without a wand. And in the movie Fantastic Bests, Grindewald transfigureted as Graves gets the suitcase from Newt in MACUSA without using his wand.
From Pottermore: "Phoenix feathers are capable of the greatest range of magic, though they may take longer than either unicorn or dragon cores to reveal this. They show the most initiative, sometimes acting of their own accord, a quality that many witches and wizards dislike." Harry has a phoenix feather wand. It was the wand itself acting on its own that shot gold flames since phoenix feather wands can and will cast whatever spell they want to if the situation calls for it. Sure Harry might have wanted to cast a disarming spell but the wand wanted to murder Voldemort with fire.
I believe that there is a simpler and a far more satisfying explanation: If Dumbledore created a Horcrux, Fawkes; and Fawkes' feather is inside Harry's wand, then the golden flames might have come from the tiny part of Dumbledore.
My guess is as a baby he cant remember his mother's death but watching Cedric Diggory's death at the end of the Tri-Wizard Tournament is why he can see them in "Order of the Phoenix"
because for you to see Thestrals you don't need only to see death, you need to understand it. Harry was just a baby he couldn't understand what was going on at that room, he couldn't proccess the whole situation
@@roccoterminiello3221 not during the final battle Voldy had Elder Wand and Harry has Draco's wand though cause of wands choosing the wizard Harry won the wand's loyalty. Which also won the Elder Wand loyalty cause Draco disarmed Dumbledore.
Based on the comments, people really did not get the "which/witch" Hermione pun. No, you are not going crazy. No, you're not the only one who noticed. No, it came up 5 times. No, it's not that hard to understand.
The problem with this theory is that the "Golden Flames" appear once more at the end of the book, in Harry's final duel with Voldemort. "'Avada Kedavra!' 'Expelliarmus!' The bang was like a cannon blast, and the golden flames that erupted between them, at the dead center of the circle they had been treading, marked the point where the spells collided." -The Flaw in the Plan, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows At this point, Harry is no longer a Horcrux (the Horcrux having been destroyed two chapters before their duel), AND Harry no longer has his wand (the Phoenix core wand which "absorbed Voldemort's power and regurgitated it" earlier). So, this theory (as much as I enjoyed it) AND the book's explanation fail to tell us why the "Golden Flames" appeared one last time to assist in ending Voldemort's life. Therefore, we can't be certain that is why the "Golden Flames" appeared earlier in the book, because they are clearly not dependant on the Phoenix core wand, nor Harry's state of being a Horcrux.
First, it should be understood that the ability to produce magic is genetic. That's why it follows familial lines. If the ability to produce magic is a recessive trait, that would also explain why muggle-born children can also produce magic despite being born into non-magical families. So, the ability to produce magic in literally in your blood. In addition, magic acts a bonus immune system. Which is why witches and wizards naturally live longer and don't get sick from common muggle illnesses (like the common cold or the flu). So far, so good? Okay, keep that information in your head while we explain the Golden Flames. The only constant in both appearances of the Golden Flames are Harry Potter and Voldemort as physical beings. They don't use any of the same wands (Voldemort using Lucius' wand in the first appearance, and the Elder Wand in the second appearance. Harry uses his own wand in the first appearance, and Draco's wand in the second). Harry is also no longer a Horcrux the second time around. Additionally, Harry did not purposely attempt to conjure the Golden Flames in their second meeting, instead casting Expelliarmus. So, the only things that stayed the same were Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort as PHYSICAL beings. Their innate and genetically granted magical ability, and their magical immune systems. Those are the only things that remain unchanged in both appearances of the Golden Flames. Therefore, the Golden Flames need to come from either Voldemort or Harry Potter as physical beings. So, the Golden Flames are a physical manifestation of one of their genetic magical abilities. Obviously, the Golden Flames come from Harry. BUT WHY?! In the Graveyard three years earlier, Voldemort uses Harry's blood to regain his physical form. The blood used underwent some intense and Dark Magic. So Harry - more specifically his innate magical ability - recognizes the bastardization of its own genetic material in Voldemort, and lashes out at it. Harry doesn't encounter Voldemort after the Duel in the Graveyard until the escape from Privet drive, the first instance of the Golden Flames. The next time Harry encounters Voldemort is when he sacrifices himself in the Graveyard, consciously choosing not to defend himself from death. The next, and last, time Harry encounters Voldemort is when Harry approaches him in the Great Hall, with the intent of duelling him and ending his reign of terror. The Golden Flames only appear when Harry has the will to survive SPECIFICALLY against Voldemort. The Golden Flames are an epic manifestation of Harry Potter's magical ability in the face of Voldemort, and act as an engine of the prophecy to help Harry both survive his encounters with Voldemort and ultimately kill him. The only problems with THIS theory are: 1. "Why don't the Golden Flames appear in the Duel in the Graveyard?" 2. "Why don't the Golden Flames protect Harry in the Forbidden Forest, when Voldemort successfully casts the Killing Curse at him?" That's where vaccines and the field of Health Psychology come into play. Harry hadn't encountered Voldemort's new magical ability (new genetic variant fusion of his own blood and Harry's) until the Duel in the Graveyard. So when they duel, and their spells join, Harry is essentially getting a magical vaccination to protect himself from Voldemort in the future. The Golden Flames are literally Magical Killer T Cells against Voldemort specifically. They exist to protect Harry SOLELY from Voldemort, as if Voldemort's attempts on Harry's life are literally a virus. In the Forbidden Forest, Harry willingly accepting death acted as an immunosuppressant, which is why the Golden Flames don't protect Harry from being killed in the Forbidden Forest. That's how it works, I'm 100% convinced.
The objective power of the Golden Flames can also be guessed at from the theory about the True Path of the Elder Wand. If you go by the rules of the Tale of Three Brothers and subsequent legends following the Elder Wand, the previous owner must be killed so the new owner can take control. Additionally, the Elder Wand cannot be defeated in any duel under regular conditions. Since Harry didn't kill Draco, and Draco didn't kill Dumbledore, and Dumbledore didn't kill Grindelwald, and Grindelwald didn't kill Gregorovich, the Elder Wand never truly followed that path. Grindelwald, with the Elder Wand, was defeated by Dumbledore in a duel under regular conditions, which should be impossible. Also, if the Elder Wand refuses to kill it's owner, it shouldn't have been able to successfully cast the Killing Curse on Harry in the Forbidden Forest. The reason he survived is because the Horcrux took on the curse and was killed instead of Harry, and Harry was dealing with the fever dream of having someone else's soul fragment detached from your own existence. Still, the Elder Wand would not have even been able to send a lethal curse to make contact with Harry at that point. Assuming Gregorovich was truly the owner of the Elder Wand at that point in time, he was killed by Voldemort. So Voldemort was the true master of the Elder Wand until Harry Potter killed him with the Golden Flames. The Golden Flames did not allow for normal conditions in their duels, meaning the Golden Flames are more powerful than Voldemort and the Elder Wand combined. Which also means that Voldemort's own Killing Curse didn't kill him, but Harry's Golden Flames did. So, Harry becomes the true master of the Elder Wand at that point instead.
"The View" is a daytime talk show hosted by women -- Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Paula Faris and Sara Haines. They kinda just sit around and talk about what's going on.
Michael Berryman Actually, it doesn't describe the flames in the same way as the ones before. For starters, with the first instance of the golden flames, there are no other spells that collide with Harry's wand to create this. Secondly, Harry didn't control the golden flames coming out of his wand the first time around. Thirdly, the flames in the final duel with Voldemort didn't come out of Harry's wand, but were more of the result of the collision of the two spells, and in a way, not unlike Priori Incantatem [see Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, chapter 34]. In the first instance, Harry did not command for the flames to come out of his wand, as they only come when a wizard is in a time of great need and is totally unexpected. It's described as "Magic beyond your abilities". Sort of like adrenaline. Lastly, the term 'golden' used in the second instance is only used as description of the impact of the two spells; sparks, as it were. Thank you for reading, if you have any questions just ask. I'm a massive fan of the Harry Potter franchise as you can probably tell. I've read the books countless times!
You missed the big defense mechanism from the locket: it tried to strangle Harry in the lake when it sensed the sword nearby. I think the theory is sound, but I just happen to think it's one of the true plot holes. I don't think there's any real good explanation for it happening in the chase scene but not at the Ministry.
Here's the problem with liquid luck. 1) Acquire sample of properly brewed liquid luck 2) Drink liquid luck 3) While under effects of liquid luck, brew more liquid luck. The effects will guarantee that you brew it correctly. 4) Repeat as necessary, selling off any excess for massive profit. 5) Break the Harry Potter world.
Except that brewing liquid luck is exceptionnally long, about minimum 6 months of maturation as well, longer than what luck a little bottle provide you...
Voldemort is like a girl 1:he has a crown 2:he has a special cup 3:he has a favourite locket 4:apparently he has a obsession with his hair 5:and has an obsession with a teenage boy
What if it's the Horcrux in Harry, the part of Voldemort's soul, that fights against Voldemort in his physical form ? If you do the math, Harry has a bigger percentage of Voldemort's soul in him than Voldemort does himself, so maybe the two divided parts of Voldemort's soul, the one in Harry (that's bigger) and the one in Voldemort's body (that's smaller) are basically fighting each other, for they want to be the ultimate dark lord. It's basically 2 parts of Voldemort arguing which is the strongest, and because Harry has more of Voldemort's soul in him, he wins the duel. P.S.: What if Harry is a great wizard BECAUSE of the big chunk of Voldemort that's in him ? I mean, it already gives him parseltongue, maybe it's also the reason he is a good wizard ? Maybe without it he'd just be kinda meh
he also cast a patronus very... err, conveniently quickly. Voldemort cant really help him with learning spells, only the "power" so harry had a lot of willpower to cast a patronus in the first place
The books explain that it does it matter how much of Voldemorts soul remains in him, he will always have the same amount of power and mental acuity. His body may be disfigured, but his power is constant. So your analysis of the "Stronger" percentage is invalid.
But also Harry didn't have HIS wand when Voldemort shot the killing curse at him in the forest. If we remember Harry's wand was broken. He was using Dracos wand. So I feel that the wand theory still stands. And also we know from Wat ollivander has said about wands is that they have feelings and are basically self aware to a certain degree. "the wand chooses the wizard" so the wand sensing Voldemort is a definite possibility being as how Voldemorts wand was not only Harry's wands brother and equal but Harry's wand recognizing Voldemorts power from the previous battle in the graveyard.
@@kennethnash598 Lucious Malfoy's wand vs. Harry's wand in the sky Elder wand vs. Draco's wand in the forest right? not Lucious Malfoy's vs. Draco Malfoy's Would have been kinda cool if Malfoy Dad's wand went against Malfoy Son's wand with Harry and Voldemort wielding them
This is actually one of the better explanations I've heard. I've wondered for a long time why Harry didn't demonstrate more horcrux powers. All the other horcruxes could do stuff for self protection.
and squibs... maybe that's why filch has so many keys? because he's the only one in the castle who can't alohomora the locks lol. also locks tell you "you shouldn't enter this room" even if you technically could if you really tried. like, most bathroom stalls have very simple locks that easily could be picked/broken, but they are not there to be impossible to open, they are just there to symbolize "hey please don't open this door" and prevent people from jerking a door open and find someone on the toilet. they should probably have locked the door to the 3rd corridor with magic tho...
+FilippaMD It was deliberately designed as a set of progressively harder traps to keep out unauthorized people without actually killing them. The first barriers were relatively easy to overcome, keeping out only muggles and maybe first-years, and then each got harder and harder. Otherwise they could simply have piled everything into a single utterly-lethal room and let anyone wander into instant death.
@Aldodo Horn I agree.. Lockhart stole Ron's broken wand and tried to use on him and Harry. For the wand theft plus all of the lies and cheats, he had it coming.
Taken from the Horcrux Wiki page: "J. K. Rowling revealed in Pottermore that Prof. Quirinus Quirrell served as a temporary Horcrux when Voldemort's soul possessed his body during Harry Potter's first year at Hogwarts.[11] A notable difference, however, is that the piece of soul within Quirrell was able to exist without its container, as it abandoned Quirrell and left him to die in the Underground Chambers. This is due to it being the "main" soul that serves as the awareness and consciousness of Voldemort's psyche. Based on this, the animals that Voldemort inhabited during his years of exile, such as rats and snakes, can also be considered as temporary Horcruxes." SIDE NOTE ON HOW HARRY BECAME A HORCRUX: "For instance, Dumbledore explicitly stated that Voldemort's soul had become so unstable that it simply "broke apart" when Voldemort tried to murder Harry Potter for the first time on October 31, 1981 in Godric's Hollow."
I think a horecrux defends itself depending on how much of voldemorts soul is in it. Because in Tom riddles diary had half of Voldemorts soul so it could protect itself better. Harry couldn't have defended himself as much as that as he has the least amount of voldemorts soul in him (aside from nigini I think)
Alohomora making locks obsolete is probably like using bobby pins to pick locks normally, just on the magical level. You can open locked doors that way, but it doesn't mean locks are useless and strong locks can stand it no problem.
I know I'm late to this video ,but wanted to say that this is the best, most convincing theory I have heard for the golden flames mystery! Very good video!
That explanation seems likely. I mean, I was willing to accept Dumbledore's theory, and just assume it all worked that way because, well, magic; but this explains a lot more.
(Disclaimer I haven't had the chance to read the books in a few years but) From what I remember the majority of the last book is spent talking about the relationship between Wands and their owners. The wands seeming to almost have personalities with the capability to "resist" someone who is not there owner. "The wand chooses the wizard and it's not always clear why." Other quotes like these that the wands on some level are creatures. Or maybe are hosts for some sort of magical being. Wands being won over and allegiances changed based on duels. It seems to me a wand must be impressed by you to believe you worthy to wield it. Wands choose the wizard almost the way people are chosen for houses, based on it own personal belief and values seeing one person as worth of itself, but if you prove to be more worthy then it's previous owner you now have its alliance. I think Harry's was knew harry. I think it could remember all the duels they had been through. I think that like Dumbledor said it could recognize Voldemort from their previous battle. I think it understood the situation and *chose* to act.
So wait... If a group of three friends had two horcruxes each, on in each of the other friends, where each friend had both two horcruxes and two horcruxes living inside of them, would they as an organism be immortal?
I remember in pottermore, Rowling mentioned that some specific wands would act on its own accord in specific situations, and she also mentioned that the "Holy" type of wand wood is very special. Well, i can't remember everything mentioned in pottermore. if any of you are interested, just go and look it up in the wand section.
Jonathan Feng so its one word? sorry I never read the books although Im really into the series so I come off sometimes as though I dont know much about it but its just that I missed some things by only watching the movies
alohamora works on non warded locks. with magic if their is a utility spell their is likely a counter to it. another example of this effect is when you are unable to summon something by acio.

Though this is one of my favourite theories and would love it to be correct I'm not sure it is. I don't feel like Horcruxes by default have built in defences but that the creators imbue their Horcruxes with these defences in their creation. If this is the case I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be the Horcrux defending itself as Voldemort didn't intend to even create this Horcrux.
I agree with your theory and raise you that the horcrux was part of how Harry knew how to destroy the diary. He wasn’t just getting lucky- the horcrux had actually been part of the wizard who created the diary, so it also understood its properties. Harry didn’t know when he was speaking parseltongue so he wasn’t able to distinguish his own thoughts from the horcrux’s.
I chose to believe it's fawkes protecting Harry, just as he did in the chanber of secretes, it's his feather in Harrys wand and that core chose to react to voldimort attack during the chase producing golden flames (a phoenix speciality). He always had a Dumbledor helping him, fawkes being the oldest living relative of the family.
Maybe Harry should have made his wand into a horcrux then he wouldn't have ever broken the wand he loves so much. It will only cost a little bit of his soul. That's a fair enough trade right?
My theory: Harry is a Horcrux, Horcruxes tend to defend themselves before being destroyed, so Voldemords soul in Harry fought off Voldemord himself avoiding being killed. That thing in combination with the Phoenixwandfederthing it acted on his own. Harry said himself "it wasn't me acting".
This explanation makes more sense to me. Due to Dumbledore's explanation I always thought that Harry's wand had become a Horcrux, or kind of, in Little Hangleton graveyard.
If Harry unintentionally defended himself because that's what horcruxes do, why didn't Nagini defend herself when Nevele attempted and succeeded in killing her?
I think that in the sixth book the horcrux inside Harry didn't try to defend itself because again Harry was willing to die... He was devastated about sirius's death as the book says so he wanted to die

Liquid luck is toxic in large quantities. Wizards can't abuse it because they wouldn't last very long.

So it's basically like a drug, has it's "perks" but is deadly if the person abuses it and Overdoses
Avocadhoes still like give some to the people during the battle of hogwarts nah don't do that just let em die to stop them from possibly dieing
repeatedly winning the lottery is extremely addictive
ahm yeah so.. wouldn't the liququid luck make you find an antidote if you chose so? or even just a spell to avoid any drawback? because in that case.. the point of toxicity is pretty irrelevant to me and does not even make sense, since getting poisoned is quite unlucky and should not be happening

Every time he says

I was wondering the same thing
The golden flame was the pheonix feather core taking liberty. Pottermore states that "They show the most initiative, sometimes acting of their own accord, a quality that many witches and wizards dislike". This is why I think the golden flames occurred.
P.S not dissing the theory, just stating my opinion
But the golden fire happens again in the final duel between harry and voldemort, and at that time, Harry doesn't have the Phoenix wand.
but he also doesn't have the horcrux either
the golden color in the final battle appeared when green and red jets collided. thats normal thats what red and green makes actually..
rousod
But remember the duel at the graveyard. The same two spells clashed, and there wasn't any golden fire.
hmmm i think i need to read again to confirm. will answer at some point tho
Alohomora is probably like a picklock: Not everyone can open every lock with this. You need to have some certain skill for some more advanced locks.
It also straight up doesn't work in Fantasic Beasts if I recall, meaning it likely only unlocks nonmagical locks
Doors can be enchanted against it probably like the key room in stone ron tries alohomora and it does t work but the door into fluffys room does work (makes me wonder why they didnt do the same to that door and dumbledoore just would keep the key....
*ahem*
They're called lock picks. A picklock is a person that picks locks.
Connor notyerbidness any nosey kids will know why they shouldnt be on that floor after seeing fluffy lol
Picklocks are also defined as instruments for picking locks...
On Pottermore, J.K. Rowling says that wands with phoenix cores have a tendency to perform magic on their own, often to the owner's dismay. I don't believe it has anything to do with the horcrux. When Voldemort kills Harry in Deathly Hallows, Harry does not have his phoenix feather wand with him, so his wand does not defend itself.
+MNPhone Neubacher but then what about in the Ministry of Magic?
SuperCarlinBrothers Plot hole, maybe? It's magic, so maybe the wand just knew that Harry didn't need help in that moment. It could be that the wand only acts when it's owner is powerless otherwise, such as on the motorbike when Harry was almost unconscious.
SuperCarlinBrothers J.K Rowling confuses me sometimes
I think in the Ministry of Magic the most important thing is Harry's overwhelming grief/love for Sirius. Love was always the thing that shut out Voldy's connection and probably suppressed the horcrux (a thing of evil that probably recoils from love) significantly.
As to rogue phoenix wands...that is probably what JKR was going for because the wandlore is so important. But I prefer this theory.
Maybe the wand didn't do anything in the department of mysteries because Harry was able to and meant to use the wand to defend himself. In the other case Voldemort was about to kill him but he was almost unconscious and couldn't do anything about it.
Maybe Snape DID use liquid luck the night Lilly died. Liquid Luck isn't all powerful- it allows you to have favorable outcomes within certain limits. Dumbedore's Army was completely infused with liquid luck at the end of book 6, and it didn't stop the Death Eaters from getting in with a werewolf, Bill being mutilated, or the death of Dumbledore. All it did was cause some of the Death Eater's curses to miss the Army specifically.
I mean, you could argue the death of Dumbledore was all part of his plan and the luck wouldn't have effected that, but the Death Eaters getting in with a werewolf? Bill getting mauled for life? Definitely proves Liquid Luck can't prevent terrible things from happening.
i don't think chance can stop an old man without defense be killed by 4 bloodthirsty psycho's, 1 schoolboy threatened with death, and one man who was commanded by *possibly* the most powerful wizard on earth
it just let you feel what to do to achieve the best possible outcome
Snakie harry only gave the liquid luck to a select few. He didn't have enough for everyone but he was mainly focused on ron herminone and genny. Liquid luck only afects the one who drinks it. Not everyone else. Im sure if say herminone was around bill before he got hurt then the liquid luck would have allowed her to protect him.
Harry described being on it as a feeling. Like it was guiding him. So if ron hermione or genny were around others it could have guided them on how best to protect others. Snspe could have used liquid luck on the day lilly died his reason would maybe to save the one he loved. But as we know he didn't make it in time. Or he may have taken it after to give him the luck to prove to dumbledore he is truly on his side now. Way to many possiblites. It excites and makes your head hurt all at once

6:03 You could also argue that Harry was borderline unconscious before, so the Horcrux stepped in like a reflex, but in the Forest Harry was awake and in control.
Harry: Why did my wand shoot golden flames?
Dumbledore: Love, Harry, Love.
“I believe that your wand imbibed some of the power and qualities of Voldemort’s wand that night, which is to say that it contained a little of Voldemort himself. So your wand recognized him when he pursued you, recognized a man who was both kin and mortal enemy, and it regurgitated some of his own magic against him, magic much more powerful than anything Lucius’s wand had ever performed. Your wand now contained the power of your enormous courage and of Voldemort’s own deadly skill: What chance did that poor stick of Lucius Malfoy’s stand?”
The wand probably imbibed Voldemorts power during priori incantatum when it literally reached into Voldemort's wand and forced it to regurgitate a shadow of those slain by it.
A good theory of what the golden fire is would likely be pheonix fire from the pheonix feather core.
Yes, it feels like the fire of eternal life (phoenix fire) would be one of the very few forces capable of counteracting pure death (Avada Kedavra)
Oooo i like this theory. Phoenix Fire emitting from the wand sounds right to me!
just like how fawkes teleports
I disagree with this theory. I personally think that it is because of the unusual combination of his wand. In Pottermore, it states that a wand having Pheonix feather as their core would act upon its own accord when in mortal danger. I think it is for this reason the golden flames were produced.
Hudson Justus Most likely, personally i believe thats it
You-Know-Who had Lucius’ wand so I’m not sure
If that were the case, though, why wouldn't Ollivander have known that was what happened when Harry asked him about it?
R u Indian justus
then again, if we go by their theory that Fawkes is Dumbledore's horcrux, then they aren't far off in this theory
What do you think?? Wand or Horcrux?!
SuperCarlinBrothers Wand
SuperCarlinBrothers idk man
SuperCarlinBrothers Horcrux. Really liked this video 😉
Wand!!!
Totally believe the Horcrux theory!!
The diary horcrux defence was Tom Riddle not the Baslisk also the ring still would have killed him, all snape did was slow it down hence why dumbledor told snape to kill him as he was dying anyway.
+Darren Fenn tom riddle WAS the diary and he summoned the basilisk so yes the diary did summon the basilisk
SuperCarlinBrothers Dumbledore himself says the diary was an interesting piece of magic. Tom still needed a vessel in order to command the Basilisk; Ginny controlled the Basilisk. When Tom controls the Basilisk, Tom is at his most powerful and his vessel has transferred most of her life to him.
I believe his wand is responsible for the magic. From the books, it seems the wand knows its owner better than the owner will ever know its wand. Like you said, Harry's trust in Dumbledore provided enough reason for the wand to not defend Harry in OOTP. Apart from the chase, Harry was never helpless, and I think the wand was willing to help Harry.
SuperCarlinBrothers There's some BEEF going on here 😂😂😂
RedChairGaming I could be wrong, but when Dumbledore made that assumption of what the diary was, it was before he has developed his theory of Voldemort having Horcuxes. The Riddle in the diary is a piece of Voldemort's soul acting through the diary, or even AS the diary.
Tom Riddle was the horcrux from the diary. So, Tom Riddle was not the defender, he was the defended. And what was he defended by? The basilisk.
Lol, in the words of the "hello future me" dude, "a wizard did it!"
**Gandolf bobbing his head his head sexily**
Maybe during the Ministry part, the Harry Horcrux chose to hide itself, knowing that Dumbledore was about to protect it.
Why does Hermione keep flashing on screen? And great theory I didn't even think about this. Haven't read the books recently but I remember this part confusing me.
Trinity Franklin i think its everytime he says "which" which
/*pic of Hermione flashes on screen/*
sounds like "witch"
a female wizard is called a witch, so her flashes a picture of hermionie every time he says "Which" (witch) so its like a pun
Hermione appears every time Ben says "which" because it's pronounced the same as "witch" ;)
But which witch is which?
+ Ann Chapple *grins* You mean "every time he says "which" *flash* which *flash* sounds like witch *flash*. XD
please explain why wizards doing magic without wands is brought up in the first book but never talked about again??
Amanda Williamson ikr
Amanda Williamson Dumbledore does magic almost exclusively without a wand. It was also a minor plot point that everyone was learning how to do it (without success) in book 6.
No they were learning to do spells without talking, they were still using their wands. They never learned to do magic with just their hands. At least, that we know of in the books.
one of the professors who did the examinations in the O.W.L year later said that Dumbledore did things with a wand he had never seen any student to do before. so he must have figured out how to do magic without the wand. as the professor said no other student had done such things with a wand.
Amanda Williamson They spoke about it again before the movie Fantastic Beasts came out. There is a text from Pottermore explaining the magical schools around the world, in the African school there is a tradition of making spells without a wand. And in the movie Fantastic Bests, Grindewald transfigureted as Graves gets the suitcase from Newt in MACUSA without using his wand.
From Pottermore: "Phoenix feathers are capable of the greatest range of magic, though they may take longer than either unicorn or dragon cores to reveal this. They show the most initiative, sometimes acting of their own accord, a quality that many witches and wizards dislike."
Harry has a phoenix feather wand. It was the wand itself acting on its own that shot gold flames since phoenix feather wands can and will cast whatever spell they want to if the situation calls for it. Sure Harry might have wanted to cast a disarming spell but the wand wanted to murder Voldemort with fire.
I believe that there is a simpler and a far more satisfying explanation:
If Dumbledore created a Horcrux, Fawkes; and Fawkes' feather is inside Harry's wand, then the golden flames might have come from the tiny part of Dumbledore.
Omg wait this is also a good theory. This towel section is on top of it! Xo
Underated comment
Did you just make a split second pun with witch?
nicholslittles98 Star Wars yes. Yes he did
Witch witch pun do you mean?
Yes. Yes he did.
Hermione showed up 6 times in this video
Which witch?
could you explain why Harry only sees the thestrals in the 5 book when he saw Lily die in front of him when he was a baby
My guess is as a baby he cant remember his mother's death but watching Cedric Diggory's death at the end of the Tri-Wizard Tournament is why he can see them in "Order of the Phoenix"
because for you to see Thestrals you don't need only to see death, you need to understand it. Harry was just a baby he couldn't understand what was going on at that room, he couldn't proccess the whole situation
José Gonçalves thanks I'm glad you cleared that up
Isn't the comprehension explanation of why Harry could only see Thestrals after book 4 actually given in book 5?
Lara A-I He didn't travel with the thestral carriages until in book 5. Ergo, not hanging around with them.
The golden glames where seen again, in the final battle the golden flames are mentioned again when there spells collided
That'sthe golden flames I thought this video was going to be about. xD
If by there you mean Harry and Voldemort’s then that’s priori incantatem
@@roccoterminiello3221 not during the final battle Voldy had Elder Wand and Harry has Draco's wand though cause of wands choosing the wizard Harry won the wand's loyalty. Which also won the Elder Wand loyalty cause Draco disarmed Dumbledore.

No, it's not that hard to understand.
deathisinevitable people are dumb

Now I can say that I've been flashed by Emma Watson.
The problem with this theory is that the "Golden Flames" appear once more at the end of the book, in Harry's final duel with Voldemort.
"'Avada Kedavra!'
'Expelliarmus!'
The bang was like a cannon blast, and the golden flames that erupted between
them, at the dead center of the circle they had been treading, marked
the point where the spells collided."
-The Flaw in the Plan, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
At this point, Harry is no longer a Horcrux (the Horcrux having been destroyed two chapters before their duel), AND Harry no longer has his wand (the Phoenix core wand which "absorbed Voldemort's power and regurgitated it" earlier).
So, this theory (as much as I enjoyed it) AND the book's explanation fail to tell us why the "Golden Flames" appeared one last time to assist in ending Voldemort's life. Therefore, we can't be certain that is why the "Golden Flames" appeared earlier in the book, because they are clearly not dependant on the Phoenix core wand, nor Harry's state of being a Horcrux.
First, it should be understood that the ability to produce magic is genetic. That's why it follows familial lines. If the ability to produce magic is a recessive trait, that would also explain why muggle-born children can also produce magic despite being born into non-magical families.
So, the ability to produce magic in literally in your blood.
In addition, magic acts a bonus immune system. Which is why witches and wizards naturally live longer and don't get sick from common muggle illnesses (like the common cold or the flu).
So far, so good?
Okay, keep that information in your head while we explain the Golden Flames.
The only constant in both appearances of the Golden Flames are Harry Potter and Voldemort as physical beings. They don't use any of the same wands (Voldemort using Lucius' wand in the first appearance, and the Elder Wand in the second appearance. Harry uses his own wand in the first appearance, and Draco's wand in the second). Harry is also no longer a Horcrux the second time around. Additionally, Harry did not purposely attempt to conjure the Golden Flames in their second meeting, instead casting Expelliarmus.
So, the only things that stayed the same were Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort as PHYSICAL beings. Their innate and genetically granted magical ability, and their magical immune systems. Those are the only things that remain unchanged in both appearances of the Golden Flames.
Therefore, the Golden Flames need to come from either Voldemort or Harry Potter as physical beings. So, the Golden Flames are a physical manifestation of one of their genetic magical abilities.
Obviously, the Golden Flames come from Harry. BUT WHY?!
In the Graveyard three years earlier, Voldemort uses Harry's blood to regain his physical form. The blood used underwent some intense and Dark Magic.
So Harry - more specifically his innate magical ability - recognizes the bastardization of its own genetic material in Voldemort, and lashes out at it.
Harry doesn't encounter Voldemort after the Duel in the Graveyard until the escape from Privet drive, the first instance of the Golden Flames.
The next time Harry encounters Voldemort is when he sacrifices himself in the Graveyard, consciously choosing not to defend himself from death.
The next, and last, time Harry encounters Voldemort is when Harry approaches him in the Great Hall, with the intent of duelling him and ending his reign of terror.
The Golden Flames only appear when Harry has the will to survive SPECIFICALLY against Voldemort.
The Golden Flames are an epic manifestation of Harry Potter's magical ability in the face of Voldemort, and act as an engine of the prophecy to help Harry both survive his encounters with Voldemort and ultimately kill him.
The only problems with THIS theory are:
1. "Why don't the Golden Flames appear in the Duel in the Graveyard?"
2. "Why don't the Golden Flames protect Harry in the Forbidden Forest, when Voldemort successfully casts the Killing Curse at him?"
That's where vaccines and the field of Health Psychology come into play.
Harry hadn't encountered Voldemort's new magical ability (new genetic variant fusion of his own blood and Harry's) until the Duel in the Graveyard. So when they duel, and their spells join, Harry is essentially getting a magical vaccination to protect himself from Voldemort in the future.
The Golden Flames are literally Magical Killer T Cells against Voldemort specifically. They exist to protect Harry SOLELY from Voldemort, as if Voldemort's attempts on Harry's life are literally a virus.
In the Forbidden Forest, Harry willingly accepting death acted as an immunosuppressant, which is why the Golden Flames don't protect Harry from being killed in the Forbidden Forest.
That's how it works, I'm 100% convinced.
The objective power of the Golden Flames can also be guessed at from the theory about the True Path of the Elder Wand.
If you go by the rules of the Tale of Three Brothers and subsequent legends following the Elder Wand, the previous owner must be killed so the new owner can take control.
Additionally, the Elder Wand cannot be defeated in any duel under regular conditions.
Since Harry didn't kill Draco, and Draco didn't kill Dumbledore, and Dumbledore didn't kill Grindelwald, and Grindelwald didn't kill Gregorovich, the Elder Wand never truly followed that path.
Grindelwald, with the Elder Wand, was defeated by Dumbledore in a duel under regular conditions, which should be impossible.
Also, if the Elder Wand refuses to kill it's owner, it shouldn't have been able to successfully cast the Killing Curse on Harry in the Forbidden Forest. The reason he survived is because the Horcrux took on the curse and was killed instead of Harry, and Harry was dealing with the fever dream of having someone else's soul fragment detached from your own existence. Still, the Elder Wand would not have even been able to send a lethal curse to make contact with Harry at that point.
Assuming Gregorovich was truly the owner of the Elder Wand at that point in time, he was killed by Voldemort.
So Voldemort was the true master of the Elder Wand until Harry Potter killed him with the Golden Flames. The Golden Flames did not allow for normal conditions in their duels, meaning the Golden Flames are more powerful than Voldemort and the Elder Wand combined.
Which also means that Voldemort's own Killing Curse didn't kill him, but Harry's Golden Flames did. So, Harry becomes the true master of the Elder Wand at that point instead.
Haha thanks. It comes from hours on hours of discussion among a group of friends. If I made a channel, it'd look like The View x)
"The View" is a daytime talk show hosted by women -- Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Paula Faris and Sara Haines. They kinda just sit around and talk about what's going on.
Michael Berryman Actually, it doesn't describe the flames in the same way as the ones before. For starters, with the first instance of the golden flames, there are no other spells that collide with Harry's wand to create this. Secondly, Harry didn't control the golden flames coming out of his wand the first time around. Thirdly, the flames in the final duel with Voldemort didn't come out of Harry's wand, but were more of the result of the collision of the two spells, and in a way, not unlike Priori Incantatem [see Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, chapter 34]. In the first instance, Harry did not command for the flames to come out of his wand, as they only come when a wizard is in a time of great need and is totally unexpected. It's described as "Magic beyond your abilities". Sort of like adrenaline. Lastly, the term 'golden' used in the second instance is only used as description of the impact of the two spells; sparks, as it were.
Thank you for reading, if you have any questions just ask. I'm a massive fan of the Harry Potter franchise as you can probably tell. I've read the books countless times!
You missed the big defense mechanism from the locket: it tried to strangle Harry in the lake when it sensed the sword nearby.
I think the theory is sound, but I just happen to think it's one of the true plot holes. I don't think there's any real good explanation for it happening in the chase scene but not at the Ministry.

Here's the problem with liquid luck.
1) Acquire sample of properly brewed liquid luck
2) Drink liquid luck
3) While under effects of liquid luck, brew more liquid luck. The effects will guarantee that you brew it correctly.
4) Repeat as necessary, selling off any excess for massive profit.
5) Break the Harry Potter world.
Except that brewing liquid luck is exceptionnally long, about minimum 6 months of maturation as well, longer than what luck a little bottle provide you...
The first guy to ever write a script must have been like: 3:07

You forgot the diary.
most improtant thing the diary xD
6:he has a diary
Awww such a cute little princess!!
lol
What if it's the Horcrux in Harry, the part of Voldemort's soul, that fights against Voldemort in his physical form ? If you do the math, Harry has a bigger percentage of Voldemort's soul in him than Voldemort does himself, so maybe the two divided parts of Voldemort's soul, the one in Harry (that's bigger) and the one in Voldemort's body (that's smaller) are basically fighting each other, for they want to be the ultimate dark lord. It's basically 2 parts of Voldemort arguing which is the strongest, and because Harry has more of Voldemort's soul in him, he wins the duel.
P.S.: What if Harry is a great wizard BECAUSE of the big chunk of Voldemort that's in him ? I mean, it already gives him parseltongue, maybe it's also the reason he is a good wizard ? Maybe without it he'd just be kinda meh
Although what I just said is kinda what the theory you just made, so, yeah...
Clément Saden he'd most likely be an above average wizard anyways since his parents are both great wizards as well
Yeah true
he also cast a patronus very... err, conveniently quickly. Voldemort cant really help him with learning spells, only the "power" so harry had a lot of willpower to cast a patronus in the first place
The books explain that it does it matter how much of Voldemorts soul remains in him, he will always have the same amount of power and mental acuity. His body may be disfigured, but his power is constant. So your analysis of the "Stronger" percentage is invalid.
But also Harry didn't have HIS wand when Voldemort shot the killing curse at him in the forest. If we remember Harry's wand was broken. He was using Dracos wand. So I feel that the wand theory still stands. And also we know from Wat ollivander has said about wands is that they have feelings and are basically self aware to a certain degree. "the wand chooses the wizard" so the wand sensing Voldemort is a definite possibility being as how Voldemorts wand was not only Harry's wands brother and equal but Harry's wand recognizing Voldemorts power from the previous battle in the graveyard.
So Voldemort was using Lucious Malfoy's wand and Harry was using Draco Malfoy's wand. hmmm.
@@kennethnash598 Lucious Malfoy's wand vs. Harry's wand in the sky
Elder wand vs. Draco's wand in the forest
right? not Lucious Malfoy's vs. Draco Malfoy's
Would have been kinda cool if Malfoy Dad's wand went against Malfoy Son's wand with Harry and Voldemort wielding them
This is actually one of the better explanations I've heard. I've wondered for a long time why Harry didn't demonstrate more horcrux powers. All the other horcruxes could do stuff for self protection.
Locks keep out Muggles
I know this was 8 months ago, but how would a muggle get into Hogwarts?
77FantasyAngel77 oof
and squibs... maybe that's why filch has so many keys? because he's the only one in the castle who can't alohomora the locks lol. also locks tell you "you shouldn't enter this room" even if you technically could if you really tried. like, most bathroom stalls have very simple locks that easily could be picked/broken, but they are not there to be impossible to open, they are just there to symbolize "hey please don't open this door" and prevent people from jerking a door open and find someone on the toilet. they should probably have locked the door to the 3rd corridor with magic tho...
..and inferi
+FilippaMD It was deliberately designed as a set of progressively harder traps to keep out unauthorized people without actually killing them. The first barriers were relatively easy to overcome, keeping out only muggles and maybe first-years, and then each got harder and harder. Otherwise they could simply have piled everything into a single utterly-lethal room and let anyone wander into instant death.

What I'm curious about is there a way to reverse the memory charm done on Lockhart and Hermione's parents?
The Doctor 2006 On Lockhart no. But with Hermione's parents. She can reverse it.
@Aldodo Horn I agree.. Lockhart stole Ron's broken wand and tried to use on him and Harry. For the wand theft plus all of the lies and cheats, he had it coming.
I would think that it would take someone as talented as Lockhart with memory charms using the Elder wand to fix Lockhart.
Edited for spelling.
Hermione explicitly states she can fix it

I was wondering why Hermione kept popping up on the screen. I kind of found it annoying.
@@axebur hence the pun reference someone said earlier. Gotcha
Taken from the Horcrux Wiki page: "J. K. Rowling revealed in Pottermore that Prof. Quirinus Quirrell served as a temporary Horcrux when Voldemort's soul possessed his body during Harry Potter's first year at Hogwarts.[11] A notable difference, however, is that the piece of soul within Quirrell was able to exist without its container, as it abandoned Quirrell and left him to die in the Underground Chambers. This is due to it being the "main" soul that serves as the awareness and consciousness of Voldemort's psyche.
Based on this, the animals that Voldemort inhabited during his years of exile, such as rats and snakes, can also be considered as temporary Horcruxes."
SIDE NOTE ON HOW HARRY BECAME A HORCRUX: "For instance, Dumbledore explicitly stated that Voldemort's soul had become so unstable that it simply "broke apart" when Voldemort tried to murder Harry Potter for the first time on October 31, 1981 in Godric's Hollow."
Is it just me or does anyone else want SuperCarlinBrothers mugs and T-shirts?
You can get shirts
Bobbleheads.
This could be spell to destroy wands used by aurors when the split wands of criminals like 'ARMUS DESTRUCTO'
Love the split second cuts to a picture of Hermione every time Ben says "which".
I think a horecrux defends itself depending on how much of voldemorts soul is in it. Because in Tom riddles diary had half of Voldemorts soul so it could protect itself better. Harry couldn't have defended himself as much as that as he has the least amount of voldemorts soul in him (aside from nigini I think)
The movie kind of makes the "golden flames" look like Expelliarmus
This is honestly one of my favorite HP theories, and I think you're 100% correct.

J: Why do they have locks?
Me: Why do people wear hats backwards?
True
I like how he says J.K.'s explanation is a bit convoluted, but he then comes up with one just as convoluted.
Alohomora making locks obsolete is probably like using bobby pins to pick locks normally, just on the magical level. You can open locked doors that way, but it doesn't mean locks are useless and strong locks can stand it no problem.

That explanation seems likely. I mean, I was willing to accept Dumbledore's theory, and just assume it all worked that way because, well, magic; but this explains a lot more.
Love this channel especially hp theory's❤️
Maya K me to:)
agreed
I agree
Agreed even when JK shuts the theories down.
(Disclaimer I haven't had the chance to read the books in a few years but) From what I remember the majority of the last book is spent talking about the relationship between Wands and their owners. The wands seeming to almost have personalities with the capability to "resist" someone who is not there owner. "The wand chooses the wizard and it's not always clear why." Other quotes like these that the wands on some level are creatures. Or maybe are hosts for some sort of magical being. Wands being won over and allegiances changed based on duels. It seems to me a wand must be impressed by you to believe you worthy to wield it. Wands choose the wizard almost the way people are chosen for houses, based on it own personal belief and values seeing one person as worth of itself, but if you prove to be more worthy then it's previous owner you now have its alliance. I think Harry's was knew harry. I think it could remember all the duels they had been through. I think that like Dumbledor said it could recognize Voldemort from their previous battle. I think it understood the situation and *chose* to act.
I prefer it to just be a mystery that we can talk about it. Mysteries creates long term engagement most of the time.
So wait...
If a group of three friends had two horcruxes each, on in each of the other friends, where each friend had both two horcruxes and two horcruxes living inside of them, would they as an organism be immortal?

Is this called the "towels section"? Why?
Jake Mullen Yes, they did an episode on towels and made a joke by calling it the towel section, since then it stuck.
Jake Mullen I always figured they called it that because that's where most towels go when you're wearing them.
I believe it's because if the video were our "head", the comment section would be where we wear our towel.
I just came here to dry off.
0:26 Snape DID use Liquid luck and lucky for him he didn't show up at Private Drive for a last desperate attempt to save Lily
For the locks:
In Magic Beasts we do see that not all locks can be opened with Aloha mora.
Your eyes make my day so much better 💚💚
:'( Where are "these amazing socks"?!?!
The explanation given by Dumbledore is basically a magical version of CRISPR. That's pretty neat.
I remember in pottermore, Rowling mentioned that some specific wands would act on its own accord in specific situations, and she also mentioned that the "Holy" type of wand wood is very special.
Well, i can't remember everything mentioned in pottermore. if any of you are interested, just go and look it up in the wand section.
O my GOD... and I thought the other guy was cute! Now I'm IN LOVE! 😍😍😍
aloe hemora or however you spell it only works on extremely basic locks
Khostov 7G-0X alohomora
Jonathan Feng so its one word? sorry I never read the books although Im really into the series so I come off sometimes as though I dont know much about it but its just that I missed some things by only watching the movies
Most things, actually.
alohamora works on non warded locks. with magic if their is a utility spell their is likely a counter to it. another example of this effect is when you are unable to summon something by acio.
Khostov 7G-0X
*kidnaps you*
*invites nerd friends to house*
*puts you in middle of demonic circle*

Though this is one of my favourite theories and would love it to be correct I'm not sure it is. I don't feel like Horcruxes by default have built in defences but that the creators imbue their Horcruxes with these defences in their creation. If this is the case I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be the Horcrux defending itself as Voldemort didn't intend to even create this Horcrux.
Great explanation
I agree with your theory and raise you that the horcrux was part of how Harry knew how to destroy the diary. He wasn’t just getting lucky- the horcrux had actually been part of the wizard who created the diary, so it also understood its properties. Harry didn’t know when he was speaking parseltongue so he wasn’t able to distinguish his own thoughts from the horcrux’s.

Omg yas
summing this episode of Super Carlin Brothers in five words. "Harry's Wand Protecting Voldemort's Horcrux"
I chose to believe it's fawkes protecting Harry, just as he did in the chanber of secretes, it's his feather in Harrys wand and that core chose to react to voldimort attack during the chase producing golden flames (a phoenix speciality). He always had a Dumbledor helping him, fawkes being the oldest living relative of the family.
2:39 "it contained a little of Voldemort himself" ...this got me thinking... is Harry's wand a horcrux??? dun dun duh!
That is interesting, but no. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been snapped by a simple spell from Hermione's average wand.
Maybe Harry should have made his wand into a horcrux then he wouldn't have ever broken the wand he loves so much. It will only cost a little bit of his soul. That's a fair enough trade right?
Why did Hermione keep popping up??

In the book version, it's not The Golden Flames, it's Expelliarmus, as far as I know.
My theory: Harry is a Horcrux, Horcruxes tend to defend themselves before being destroyed, so Voldemords soul in Harry fought off Voldemord himself avoiding being killed. That thing in combination with the Phoenixwandfederthing it acted on his own. Harry said himself "it wasn't me acting".
there are counter spells for alohahomra so it can still be lock
Exactly there is even a full story about the need of Anti-Alohomora locks creation in the Ps3 game "Book of Spells"
What ISNT a horcrux?????
John Rainey My nan.
Amber Shoffren Or is she...
SeanRooney Jesus Christ!
at this point i wonder... was lily's goldfish an horcrux?
LILY LIVES CONFIRMED
I had not thought of it this way but is the only thing that really makes sense
This explanation makes more sense to me. Due to Dumbledore's explanation I always thought that Harry's wand had become a Horcrux, or kind of, in Little Hangleton graveyard.
Oh deary me last time I was this early I had a life.
Allison Brodie SAAAAMMMMEE BRO/BROSETTA!
there hasn’t been a SCB theory I’ve disagreed with
i came up with the exact same explanation the second time through the audio book. Great theory it matches mine exactly.
I hardly noticed it was gold when I watched that scene in the cinema.
If Harry unintentionally defended himself because that's what horcruxes do, why didn't Nagini defend herself when Nevele attempted and succeeded in killing her?
Kaden Greene with Harry, he saw it coming and the horcrux had time to react. Not so with Nagini.
Chris Hale Oh true.
Nagini was pretty much in Full Fight Mode by that point anyways
Neville, not “Nevele”
Kadensttuf 972 from what I remember, Nagini had her back turned away from him and wasn't aware of what was happening.
Hello Ben #notificationSquad
I think that in the sixth book the horcrux inside Harry didn't try to defend itself because again Harry was willing to die... He was devastated about sirius's death as the book says so he wanted to die
