Dumbledore always seemed to be the chink in Voldemort's armour because despite the dark lord achieving a power that many could only dream of, the headmaster always seemed to be able to figure him out and work a solid defence against him, even if the odds were highly in Voldemort’s favour.

He feared Dumbledore because he was Dumbledore. He never fell for Tom Riddles beautiful smile or manipulation. And never backed down from him.
yeah and he had the elder wand
Cuz Dumbledore raised him and knows him VERY well. Dumbledore taught him. Dumbledore knows Tom better than Tom knows Dumbledore.
@@johnwebb6342 because, Dumbledore wasn't just the most powerful wizard, he was a genius and better than Voldemort at manipulating people. Voldemort used fear, people died for Dumbledore just because he was an incredible leader. Dumbledore and Voldemort were close in terms of magical powers, but when it came to wits, wisdom and intelligence in general not just magic specific, Dumbledore is so far above Voldemort. Dumbledore studied wizard behavior for more than a century, look how interested he was in Voldemort, Harry, how magic interacted with emotions etc. Dumbledore studied wizards, he knew everything about Voldemort, learned all his secrets, without ever using legilimency against him Dumbledore wasn't just an incredibly powerful wizard, he would've been a genius even if he was born a muggle with that intelligence combined with insane emotional maturity which is usually unheard of in people with genius levels of intelligence.
@@lolcats4ever Which Voldemort never knew as long as Dumbledore was alive so stupid comment.
Dumbledore knew more about magic in general dark arts excluded, was a slightly better duellist, would have more potential than riddle if he would also have studied dark arts, and was a very good legilimentic and occlumentic user. (which is insanely dangerous for riddle concerning his horcruxes and their hidings)
@@TheSolarium18 I wouldn't say that Dumbledore was a better duelist. In book 5, Voldemort managed to duel Albus long enough and even forced him to sacrifice his Phoenix, even though Dumbledore was using an Elder Wand against Riddle. I believe they were on par when Dumbledore had the elder wand, but without it, Voldemort was slightly better.
Dumbledore's not impressed face at their first meeting probably spooked him. Dumbledore's unwillingness to fall for his charms at school fueled this paranoia. When he got hagrid expelled but dumbledore argued strongly to keep him around must have been shocking, considering hagrid was a half giant nobody to tom so he must have thought dumbledore did it to spite him or knew he was the real culprit but chose to stay quiet. If the timeline is right, tom was already at borgin and burkes when the duel with grindelwald happened. There were eyewitnesses to this and tom will have read all the dark magic dumbledore did and really got intimidated.
Tom did not know about Dumbledore's interest for the Dark Magic as seen in his answers to Harry during their dialogue before he died in the Great Room
yoo that actaully makes alot of sense since dumbledore dueled grindlewald in 1945 and that was the same year tom riddle had graduated from hogwarts. what if tom riddle was there and he witnessed the greatest duel of all time and he saw dumbledore true power and that made him hate dumbledore even more seeing him pull off magic he could only dream of and winning over the elderwand in a legit duel when he had only a regular wand against grindlewald
@@radium.a one of the reasons voldemort failed was because he took no interest in knowing his enemies something the dumbledore did the opposite of. voldemort didn't know snape, harry, malfoy or any of his death eaters they were just pawns to him
Dumbledore may have suspecting Tom For openning Chamber of Secrets, but whitout any evidences, he coudn't do anzthing about it. just like there was not enouth evidence to take down Hagrid, yes, he may be expeled, but considering total amount of damage, have he be truly proven to be guilty, sentence would be much more severe then that.
Like u I think it was the total some of Dumbledore's knowledge, power, and abilities that Voldemort feared. He knew if Dumbledore figured out his secret. Dumbledore could kill him. And Dumbledore had an ability to figure things out.
Maybe Voldemort also feared that if Dumbledore could duel him to the point where Voldemort was in such a weakened state that he couldn't defend him mind. Dumbledore could have searched the secrets of Voldemort's mind and found out the secret of the horcrox
I always loved how Dumbledore would continue to call him Tom, even after he changed his name to Voldemort. It was something that I think made Tom just a bit annoyed by Dumbledore. I'm not surprised that Voldemort feared Dumbledore. It made sense withi the storyline for this to be the case. It was a good story arc too.
Aye Dumbledore didn't give two of vince McMahon's 💩💩s about tom's invented name, the cons of being a teacher I'm afraid - Albus Dumbledore
😂
I always believed that Rowling missed on a great opportunity for moral depth when she didn't cast Dumbledore in Slytherin. Think about it, Dumbledore has always been drawn to power and glory, certainly in his youth (ergo when he got sorted), and he couldn't even shake it off afterwards. Even his 150yo version was still avoiding power because he didn't trust himself with it, that's how much ambition and power-hunger were rooted deep within him. Not only it would've made a lot of sense to have him be in Slytherin, it would've allowed the series to explore how the two greatest wizards to have ever lived, coming both from the same house, ended up on two radically opposite moral positions, and would've shown how much free will and individual choices are more important than background and where you came from. It would've provided a much more beautiful and nuanced moral message than the black & white version we got instead.
I completely agree. He feared him because there was ALWAYS something more to him. Something always up his sleeve. Thank you for this video.
Dumbledore also feared Voldemort for the same reason. It was first when Harry Potter came that he no longer feared Voldemort because he knew that love would be the only thing Voldemort would never understand.
@@headstrongbachelor3152 well said! And very true.
@@headstrongbachelor3152 he knew that long before. In the memory when voldemort applies for the DADA job. Dumbeldore says hes painfully unaware of other aspects of magic. Voldemort then says he cannot see why love is powerful
@@abdirahmanidris290 Yes but he never dared to go out a confront Voldemort in the first wizarding war... He was not sure if he could take him... Dumbledore stated that Voldemort's knowledge of magic was extended beyond any wizard alive which was true as Voldemort's skills in combat made Grindelwald look like a joke...
The difference between the two is that Dumbledore was able to see outside himself.
I think the best smallest part in the whole franchise is when Voldemort’s smile faded in the DoM after seeing Dumbledore emerge from the fire after he spent that time taunting Harry. Such a small detail but it shows just how unwelcome Dumbledore was. Voldemort wanted NO smoke with him. Dumbledore calling Voldy ‘Tom” after was just icing on the cake. Rubbing salt in the wounds.
"What's it going to take, Tom? You tried to kill me as a baby and it didn't work! We've already beaten you 5 or 6 times, now, and I just came back from the dead!"
-Harry Potter, How It Should Have Ended
He feared DD, because DD knew V's history and true nature. DD never really accepted Tom's facade, and he knew it. He could charm and cajole all of the other teachers, but not DD. This is the true fear.
@xGitGudx I’ve been using these long before now….back when Usenet was still around and I was reading a HP newsgroup.
Dumbledore never fell for his charm and false presentation he showed everyone!
Idk how that is. Tbh it’s pretty easy to see through the act just like with some real people.
I always thought he showed Tom a small act of compassion by taking him away from the orphanage. An act Tom didn't understand as everyone had only been cruel to him.
I think it wasn't as much of compassion as it was to prove Tom a point, that the path he chose could never lead to anything else than destruction and violence. Because there would always be those who would rather stand up against him (and likely die while doing it) than live under his power.
Yes, good old Albus always saw Voldy as the boy Riddle he met at the orphanage, but he also knew that boy did not exist anymore, he had gone too far.
So by calling him Tom, he also challenged him to accept the fact he can't ever win..
I have a slightly different interpretation. Dumbledore feared nothing except for one thing, and it wasn’t Tom. Dumbledore feared the knowledge that it was actually him that cast the spell that killed his sister, Ariana. Dumbledore knew that he would die one day so he didn’t fear death. Tom feared Dumbledore because he wasn’t ready or willing to die, unlike Dumbledore. This is why he wanted to kill Dumbledore so badly, everyone was scared of Tom and those who weren’t where killed, except for Dumbledore because he happened to be superior and more powerful than Tom.
I think he feared Dumbledore because he knew what Dumbledore was capable of. Remember, Dumbledore was well short of being a saint as a young man. Given his relationship with Grindlewald, it's reasonable to assume Dumbledore had more than merely dabbled in the dark arts. And I think Tom was likely angry or jealous that Dumbledore showed a capacity for change. Dumbledore's murky youth probably put him in a good position to be able to read Tom well, so he was never caught up short by him, nor was he ever charmed by him. He knew what was under Tom's skin, just as he knew what (at one time) was under his own.
Continuing to call him "Tom" just served to underscore the point that Dumbledore knew who Riddle really was deep down. This had to have unnerved Riddle greatly.
I always believed that his past with Gellert and seeing how good his boyfriend was at manipulation made him more cognizant of others trying to hoodwink him, I mean Gellert was a God of manipulation, so Dumbledore might have gained the ability to tell when someone was putting on an act in front of him.
4:20 (lol)
I never interpreted the cave as somewhere that Tom took people to torture them, I assumed that there was something magical in the cave that because he was magical or the Heir of Slytherin or whatever spared him and showed him something impressive. However, when he tried to show it to the other children in some vain, desperate attempt to make friends, the magic in the cave turned on them instead rendering them mute and unresponsive to others forever.
Tom doesn’t strike me as the type of child who would go THAT far away to just torture them as he could do that in the orphanage, I think he saw something he wanted to share but as soon as he did, he knew that he was different afterwards and treated everyone else accordingly.
He didn't travel that far, they were already on a trip nearby that cave and Voldemort had never wanted friends, as Dumbledore tells Harry.
You had me laughing so hard with your end quote. Thanks for the reminder. LMAO
He feared Dumbledore because he could not intimidate him, could not read him, and could not control him or outwit him. Those were major weapons Voldemort used against every foe...and ally. .to gain some sort of advantage. And that is key...Voldemort MUST feel he has some advantage he can exploit over his adversaries. Dumbledore had nothing he could exploit directly...so tried possessing Harry...which also backfired. So, there was fear....a good healthy fear, if you ask me. 😊
Ideas for videos if you haven't done them already:
•Why is wizard candy so gross?
•Why is wandless magic so difficult?
•The different types of broom sticks.
(Best and worst)
•Why did the Dursleys keep Harry if they knew he could put them in danger?
•Diagon Alley explained.
-Thanks for all the videos you continue to make, I very much enjoy HP Folklore.
Stuff like this drives home how Voldemort was a complete nutcase. What kind of person would think their greatest failure was failing to cover their tracks _as an 11-year-old_ against a fully adult authority figure?
If you look close enough on Dumbledores wand it says “bad ass mother” That’s all you need to know.
Tbf I’d say at one point Voldemort started to fear harry. Especially in the great hall when harry was dumping on his whole existence. Maybe a flicker, but after failing to kill him about 7 times I’m
Sure it’ll settle in 😭
I already wrote this down below an other video, I don't know if you read it: what about a video in which you explain what Salazar Slytherin would think of Voldemort and his actions? I mean: if he would approve all of them, or just some and others not, if he would be proud or disappointed, or a mix of the two things.
Didn’t they confirm he didn’t trust him and he knew it when Voldemort was rejected for the DADA position
I choose to believe that Dumbledore decided to ditch his Jude Law version shorter hair when he realised that his greatest enemy would have his hair growing ability completely destroyed by the dark magic he uses to kill people. So Dumbledore responded by growing as much hair as physically possible in hopes that if he did get to see the day that Tom Riddle would die, he could make him a wig and a beard to wear as he’s buried using hair he cuts from his flourishing genital forest
😂
🤣🤣🤣What?!
You are one strange, f ucked-up individual, and I salute you for it!!!
Although it would explain Colin Mochrie a little better....🤔
Wtf
You're a little weird, Jack
Why is this channel so good
Really pleased to see that your views seem to be climbing again 😊 You deserve it for the work you put in! Thanks for bringing joy to the lives of Potter diehards like me and many others with your videos ☀️🙏 Keep on keeping on!
He feared Dumbledor because Albus was the only one who would dead name him infront of his followers and Voldemort wouldn't be able to do anything about it. lol
Voldemort: I'm such a badass.
Dumbledore: Sure, Tom.
*Death Eater snickering intensifies*
Harry even said I bet Dumbledore saw right through you when he encountered Tom riddle in the chamber of secrets
the movies made us believed that Voldemort was much more powerful than Dumbledore and that he was struggling when they dueled each other, but in reality was so calm the whole time.
and in the half blood prince movie he so shocked about the 7 horrocruxes like "this is beyond anything I imagined" come on in the books he already knew he created more than one horrocrux the only thing he needed was confirmation.
I think its a bit like how some bullies are intimidated by anyone they can't bully
Another great vid! Thanks for keeping this masterpiece of a story alive 🙏
Voldermor never feared any man. He feared the best wizard in the wizarding world.
Voldemort didn't fear a man, he Feared a God.
I agree with everything said in this video. Technically between the two Voldemort won and killed him indirectly. Yes I know that Severus Snape cast the Killing Curse on Dumbledore, but Dumbledore would have died anyway, duo to curse that was cast on the Gaunt ring. And to further extantion the resurrection stone, one of the Hallows that Dumbledore was obsessed with. He didn't prepare it especially for him, but in this way he defeated Albus without dueling. Because we all saw that in a direct duel, Voldemort couldn't have won because Dumbledore was his superior.
Voldy didn’t really win because it was Dumbledores plan to get killed by Snape all along so Dumbledore got exactly what he wanted which ultimately lead to Voldemorts death
@@vercettii Dumbledore only intended for Snape to kill him after he'd already been cursed by the ring.
@@bge4359 But that intent lead directly to Harry figuring out that he had to die in order to defeat Voldemort. Even if Dumbledore didn’t get cursed by the ring, Voldemort was planning his murder in Harry’s sixth year anyway
@@vercettii Look closely at what I say. If it wasn't for the curse on the ring, there was no need for Dumbledore to plan his death. So Voldemort is greatly responsible for Dumbledore's death, because of that curse. Although he wasn't aware it will hurt his rival. That is what I was saying- Indirect victory.
@@eranshachar9954 his action of creating a horcrux (the ring) led to Dumbledore getting cursed which led to Voldemorts death so he lost because of his own actions , while you could say he killed Dumbledore its nowhere near a win in the grand scheme of things
Completely off topic, but I had a question about Voldemort's ring Horcrux. Why do you suppose he decided to hide it instead of just wearing it around his finger? Wouldn't it have made more sense to keep it close being it his first Horcrux? It would be harder to get to. I guess you can make the same argument with Slytherin's Locket. Just a thought.
Good question
".....exposed himself to Dumbledore....."
Jesus, Dean, phrasing!!!!
There's also that theory that Dumbledore is Death and Voldemort's worse fear is death
Because of all people Dumbledore knew what Tom Riddle really was
With your interest in Vampires, have you ever heard the Genevieve series from Warhammer Horror, written by Kim Newman.
"seemed to always figure him out."
Yeah, Tom was a real open book, the original 'Emo kid' that one.
"he was so confidant in himself-"
That Harry warned him, "You're overconfidence is your weakness" which Voldemort; "And your faith in your friends is yours."
I'm afraid that my horcruxes are quite operational, it was I who allowed the order to discover the location of the prophecy. 😂😂😂
Nice video!! I have a video request on something that’s been bugging me for years….
If a muggle got a bone marrow transplants from a wizard and regular blood transfusion from them would they be able to use magic?
Dumbledore, was the OG.
Best character.
Dumbledore seem to have developed sight without time we’re his mind existed outside of the prime timeline. Case in point when Hermione uses the time turner he seems to know what’s going on even though some events have changed.
For that I like to think Dumbledore saw something weird about the current timeline from the environment as he, Fudge and McNair were on their way to Hagrid's. He also probably was aware of Hermione having a time-turner all year through McGonagal prior to that.
No event has changed it was already there.
Because Dumbledore knew who he *really* was, when he was a youth at school and when he shed his identity to become Lord Voldemort.
He knew that he knew that he knew that he knew, you know. 🤣🤣🤣
Dumbledore was the only who can see right through Voldemort’s bs. He didn’t even trust him for the Defense of the Dark Arts position
I'm wondering if every would be great dark wizard that was coming up was wanting to face off against Dumbledore to prove that he or she was better than Grindlewald was trying to challenge him to a duel or something similar. It might have happened enough that by the time Tom Riddle came along Dumbledore was bored by this stuff. But Tom Riddle being so dark a person, so young, would have captured his attention and certainly would have constantly watched Tom while he was in school.
There doesn't have to be anything deeper than Dumbledore is just that dude
Ooooh a new video, this is a theory I really want to know about
Hi here is a suggestion for a new video. I would like to dig deeper around the phrase "Help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it."
You nailed it inside of 2 minutes.
Dumbledore had a great knowledge of dark magic, but he did not use it. At least not in mature age. I think Voldemort was afraid that Dumbledore would discover his secrets, which Albus actually did, and find a way to defeat him. At least that was what he had thought until he heard part of the prophecy and the attack on the Potters. Then he had to fear, too, knowing the attack hadn't waved away the danger of the Chosen One. He certainly had ceased to fear him after Dumbledore's death, and that was his huge mistake. Dumbledore had prepared his death in advance and how to proceed with plans from beyond the grave. This was not what Tom Riddle had foreseen.
I'm a big fan of the channel but I'm going to be a bit critical here with some of these videos. The entire point of this video implies that it wasn't already well established why Voldemort was afraid of Dumbledore. I thought to anybody who actually read the books though it was pretty common knowledge. In half-blood Prince we learned that Voldemort felt that he revealed way too much about himself to Dumbledore and was terrified when Dumbledore lit his wardrobe on fire. Voldemort always knew that Dumbledore was a powerful wizard and Snape said to Bellatrix that even Voldemort acknowledges that Dumbledore was a great wizard. So this question has long since been answered.
So what? In _your_ channel you can go ahead and take a stab at the less 'common knowledge' areas.
Nice video Dean.
Perhaps Voldemort was the darkest wizard but Grindelwald was like dumbledore the greatest wizards overall
There is no way Grindelwald could ever beat Voldemort in combat...
The real obvious reason ofc is Dumbledore knew about his life before Hogwarts.
Meaning he likely also knew about his connection to the Gaunts.
His horcruxes would be close to impossible to find without that knowledge.
So no matter how much he wanted Harry dead because the prophecy gave him a reason to believe he has powers to destroy him, he knew Dumbledore was the biggest threat as he knew about his past. Cause he was the only one who likely could find his horcruxes. And as long as they existed, there was no real threat to him, no matter what some prophecy said
The thing is though albus was born in 1888 then died in 1997 (meaning he died at 116) my dude got atleast a whole century of magical knowledge 😭
Hellz yes. Thanks for uploading dean. I dropped a like for u as well
Incredible job👏🙌👌❤😍👍
Great video!
Elves muggles goblins and wizards never get along
Shit, Muggles and Muggles don't get along....
Really relaxing voice
Dumbledore was AWESOME, He was my favorite character in the movies.
That made my head spin
Oh wow, I'd be happy too with the money from a 2 minute Audible ad.
This video has a fun little spell put on it… cool ending
No need, I’m totally blind
The main reason according to me is that dumbaldore was the one who defeated Grindelwald who was in same path as him and helded the same title dark lord so if he was able to defeat Grindelwald so there is a chance he can defeat him too and after he battles him in first wizarding war that pretty much confirm that
Great video.
Respect
I want Johnny depp grindelwald back for the 4th movie
Hey everyone! When TH-cam pops Dean's videos up for a star rating and review, make sure you give him 5 stars and check everything applicable in the review! He deserves to be bumped up in the algorithms by all means possible for such great work on this channel.
That in video ad, was way to long lol
PeterLeger ❤️
Amazing video
Dumbledore had all the deadly hallows at one point Thats why i think
no he never had all in one go.
Voldemort did not feared Dumbledore because Dumbledore was more skilled. It was because Dumbledore might knew he had created horcruxes. Dumbledore was also Supreme Mugwump which mean he had the whole wizarding world backing him up.
Voldemort, or Vol de mort, means "flight from death" in French.
The only bad thing about your videos is that they have to end
The one wizard he always sought to impress, was the one who was most disappointed in him.
Dumbledore was and is still an absolute legend
Did you just say dumbledore was grindlwalds "friendly acquaintance"?
Yes.
Coz Dumbledore is the greatest wizard of all time and he knew he would lose if Dumbledore gave it his best.
But Dumbledore never came out of Hogwarts during the first wizarding war to confront Voldemort...
@@headstrongbachelor3152 Dumbledore is a teacher, he's not gonna stop teaching students to go after Voldemort alone. And the first wizarding war is scaled around 10 years and Dumbledore was the leader of the secret org that was fighting the deatheaters: the order of the phoenix.
Even the time they did fight, Dumbledore was removed from his post as headmaster and he was the one that made the plan to lure voldemort to the ministry using the prophecy as bait. It was Dumbledore who caused their fight. But in first wizarding war, Dumbledore would have to break the laws to seek Voldemort and decide to take him out plus he simply would have a hard time finding him in the first place.
@@headstrongbachelor3152 he probably kne about the horrucruxes
@@denizkenger52 He went out to face Grindelwald when he was a transfiguration teacher...
Voldemort was the most powerful dark wizard at all time and therefore far more dangerous than Grindelwald, so it says all that Dumbledore did not dared to come out and face him because of the uncertainties.
@@crow_g1639 Horcruxes means nothing. If Dumbledore killed Voldemort in their duel it would give him time to search for the horcruxes while Voldemort was in his weakest form. The idea that Dumbledore easily could kill "Voldy" is horseshit...
Thanks
Why did they never fight before?
Muggles and wizards will never get along
Neither will Muggles and Muggles.
If Harry wasn't born, Dumbledore wouldn't have been indirectly killed by Voldemort.
Quick pauze...Dude the sponsor part is longer then the actual video.
Am I the only one who holds a Harry Potter wand while watching his videos?
I mistook Dumbledore for an amorphous blob in the thumbnail for way too long
An 8 minute video with a 3 minute commercial.
He Feared Dumbledore Because He Knew He Could Never Grow A Beard As Long As Dumbledore's
Dumbledore has style 😂 hay Whatever happened to dumbledores original wand 🤷♂️ ✌️💚🤘
Is this legit ✌️💚🤘
Voldemort did beat Dumbledore with the ring. Even if Snape didn't kill him the curse was still going to kill him very soon.
In absentia, because of Dumbledore's greatest vulnerability in his life. But 'congrats' to you for holding this opinion.
Audible is half the video
starting to fee like these videos are being a bit recycled.. keep seeing the same topics from months ago but uploaded yesterday or something lol
You're free to leave or simply make your own video. Or better yet, stfu and keep scrolling 😁
Skip to 4:00 to continue video
They compare voldemort to hitler and dumbledore to Churchill. Churchill saw threw hitler the way dumbledore saw threw voldemort!
Wonderful👏🙌👌👍😀💙
Amazing 👏🙀😮😲😯
i love anne rice books
Voldemort fears Dumbledore
Wow, I’m Super Evil Because I Will Never Know What I Had To Share As A Teacher. But in 1985 I Would Have Been Fired For Being Gay.
Basically spoiled kid hates their dad because the dad wouldn't let them get away with whatever they wanted.
