    @Dragonlover553 ปีที่แล้ว +127

    Okay, genuine question here; where did the idea that you split your soul precisely in half every time come from? I’m not sure. It never says as much in canon, and in fact the descriptions actually provided by the book use words like “fragment” even while working under the expectation a wizard will only make one, which emphasizes its size is small.
    (Additionally, Dumbledore explicitly states that Voldemort’s mind and powers are intact despite the soul splitting, so the idea that he’s weakened by it is broadly bunk, though the instability is the reason he accidentally Horcrux’d Harry, so it’s not wholly nonsense.)

    • @prabhatsourya3883
      @prabhatsourya3883 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      Nah, there was nothing about "half". The definition in the book clearly says, "a fragment of the soul". I think the "half" word came from his understanding of the word, "split".
      Also, while Voldemort retained his mind and magical skill, due to his soul being maimed after being ripped apart, thus, he could not possess Harry in the Battle of the Ministry without suffering agony, while Harry could enter the mind of Voldemort and watch a first person view, without suffering any pain, something which Dumbledore confirms to Harry in the afterlife.
      However, I do agree with your idea that the "health" of Voldemort is at 1% is just bunk. The SOUL was not making his magic power high or low, his skill was what was increasing his power. The SOUL only factored in his death that there was nothing left for him to hang on in the mortal realm, and he is forced to move into the afterlife.

    • @SacredFaerie
      @SacredFaerie 7 ปีที่แล้ว +45

      Technically, -mancy means to perform divination using a specific means (the prefix, so geomancy *should* be telling the future by manipulating or interpreting geography). Divination by definition is foretelling the future/writing prophecy. Yet, you're correct that basically no word ending with mancy actually refers to the ability of telling the future anymore.
      For example, geomancy. Geomancy now commonly refers to the manipulation of the land, somewhat like what 'terraform' means. However, geomancy used to mean interpreting the future using signs found in the environment.
      Necromancy, similarly, is now commonly used to refer to the ability to revive and control corpses and/or spirits. But, the current dictionary definition of necromancy is *still* about communicating with spirits to predict the future.

    • @pizzac00l
      @pizzac00l 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      The initial root of -mancy still means to divine or commune with the aforementioned element, but most modern interpretations mainly use that communion as a request for aid, as in a necromancer communing with the souls of the dead to put them in new vessels for him to command, or a pyromancer communing with the element of fire to aid them through the medium of a controllable fireball. Through this frame of reference, spellbooks are instructions for the caster-to-be to learn how to commune with the element at hand and learn the exact phrasing necessary for that element to accept your request (aka spells).

    So came back to watch this forgetting that I had before but it was a good watch, I would also like to point out a small interesting tidbit about the elder wand, there are actually two different reasons that Voldemort couldn't properly use the elder wand. The first being of course he wasn't the proper owner, but the second reason has to do with what the wand is made of. If you do some research on wand lore you come to find out that we know both the wood of the wand and the core that was used, that core being Thestral tail hair, even more, interesting is what we learn about trying to use Thestral tail hair as a wand core, "The Thestral tail hair was a powerful and tricky substance that could be mastered only by a witch or wizard capable of facing death" that the other reason Voldemort couldn't use the elder wand he is probably the biggest example of someone who can't accept death.

      Oh God thank you, I was gonna mention that one! It's such an important quote that most people have either missed, forgotten or ignored, and it clarifies quite a few things. It makes the theory in this video not quite accurate, even if it was pretty clever!
      So, keeping what Dumbledore said in mind, Voldemort in his final state isn't any less powerful or smart than he was before, he's just less human (wizard?). The very core of what made him a man/wizard is damaged beyond repair, but that doesn't affect his powers or his intellect (although understandably his sanity has gone out the door by then...). Really, around the end of the story Voldemort is basically a creature animated by dark magic and little else. Whatever shred of humanity he might've had before is long gone, but his magic is just as strong, if not stronger. Honestly, when you stop to think about it, it just makes him even more terrifying!
      Do you agree? Or not? Well, anyway, thanks again for mentioning that quote, I was really glad to see someone else had remembered it!

    The irony of the Horcruxes is that Voldemort only lived to be a little older than 70, and a good chunk of that time was as a formless wisp in the back of Quirrel's head. Voldemort, for all his attempts at immortality, got outlived by people who just allowed themselves to age naturally, like Dumbledore (who lived to be in his 100s).

    Ok so while I really want to believe this, I see a couple of flaws. 1) I could definitely be wrong but I’m pretty sure in the book he says ‘part’ of the soul is kept in the horocrux, not necessarily that it’s divided in half each time. 2) the horocrux inside Harry is destroyed when Harry “dies”, meaning that during the final battle Harry is just Harry again, and assuming we’re going with splitting the soul in half each time, old Voldy still has that .78%.

    This whole theory relies upon the assumption that creating a horcrux requires you to split your soul into two equal halves. It's been a LONG time since I've read or watched Harry Potter, but my understanding was that it was more like snipping a piece off than splitting it in half.

    • @AlmeidaVaG6
      @AlmeidaVaG6 7 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Chas Gulley exactly what I was thinking! Back when I read it, I assumed that the point was to have a reservoir of some sorts so that it could still remain somewhere in the world and you can never go away wholly. So you just need to have an incomplete soul within yourself and some soul somewhere else, not necessarily halves. That's why, I thought, he wanted to have so many and all of them had to be destroyed in order for him to die.

    • @reecord2

      Yep, or maybe souls can grow and develop (like the minds of children growing into adults) so the smaller remainder of soul in his body grows into a mostly working and mostly complete soul? Therefore even a "small" soul piece in a body can grow into a 95% perfect soul, for example?

    • @SolarBlyze
      @SolarBlyze 7 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      that's actually how souls generally work. when a soul is split, the remaining part in the body repairs itself over time. however, the part that is repaired is never the same as the part that was split. so it's no wonder his personality was severely altered by the end of it all. but the fact that harry is more voldemort than voldemort himself still holds true due to the fact that a soul cannot repair itself without a living body. voldemort was dead for a fair chunk of the books, his soul would have only began repairing itself after he got his new body, him attaching to quirell helped a bit but not as effectively. even then he did not give it enough time to really repair before he made nigini a horcrux as well.

      It doesn't. Its said multiple times that it just takes a part of the soul. Slughorn does say half at one point I believe, but that is only after Riddle asks about doing it 7 times, so that probably implies by that point he would be down to half if not more. Aside from that, it seems like the soul might just redistribute itself after each horcrux, since Dumdledore mentions that a hand is a small price to pay to get rid of a seventh of Voldermort's soul.
      Regardles, once again, Matpat is feigning interest in something to make a theory on and get views. Which is disheartening because I thought he was above that.

    • @Xynth22
      @Xynth22 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      ***** EVERY video he does is about getting views. That's the point of TH-cam, and its the kind of guy Matpat is. He even stated as such in a few of his "meta-theory" videos when explaining how TH-cam works. I mean that's why he did so much with FNAF, None of this is a bad thing by itself.
      However, the problem there is that even if he wasn't actually that big of a fan of the games, which is likely since Alex Faciane (from NationalDex/Super Beard Bros) wrote up all of the theories for those videos, they were at least well researched and showed that someone at least knew what they were talking about even if no one actually liked them. With Harry Potter that clearly isn't the case because neither Matpat, or whoever wrote the script and theory for him has even read the books and that is clearly demonstrated by this video and the previous one, which is why it seems like Matpat just jumped on the Harry Potter bandwagon simply because it had a large audience and he wanted the views.

      I have to agree, he used to put a lot of research and effort into his theories, which he still does but lately he makes theories about whatever major franchise is coming out with a movie and sometimes the theories are about movies he hasn't even seen, are obviously untrue, or about to be definitively proven wrong in some media coming out shortly. He did it with Rogue One. Instead of doing it just on star wars he wrote a theory about a movie he never saw and made a prediction on it purely for sponsorship. I love MatPat and film/game theory and it still has entertainment value but as someone who is making partially educational videos it hurts his credibility.

    The thing is, as far as I'm aware (correct me if I'm wrong), it's never mentioned that the soul is split in half. It just says it's split.

Ron didn't have the connection with the locket that Ginny had by writing about her innermost thoughts in the book but it could still take a spirit form and everything. It is never said that his soul was halfed in the books although I do recall dumbledore saying split once. But not in the context of 'split down the middle'.

    • @nathan8208
      @nathan8208 7 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      I see where you're coming from but your argument, and the video's argument, hinge on an assumption. The assumption that when the soul splits, it splits exactly in half. Slughorn's exasperation when he said "to split the soul into seven pieces" would have been present whether the soul splits exactly in half or if it just splits into smaller pieces. Both of which, would be a valid cause for concern.
      Not to mention the fact that Voldemort surely should be the weakest wizard in the world if he has as little of his soul as the video claims. And as Mizelei2012 mentioned, if the video is correct, the locket would have a fraction of the power the diary has, but it doesn't. Neither is shown to be any more powerful than the other, suggesting that pieces of the soul where essentially "chipped off" and put into the objects.

    • @ExatedWarrior

      Dunric Mordamir His soul has an attachment. His soul is not a physical object..

      this actually, even i slughorn said it split in half he's talking in context of splitting the soul into 'two', but when voldemort says splitting into six i think he's talking about splitting his soul into half and distribute that half into six object but then harry comes along and take a bits of the half voldemort has so he probably has about 40%ish? but it did make sense that the diary is the one having most of his soul, since its the only one that literally can project himself into reality even when his body is not around, but i think it only has about 20%ish, since if its literally half of his soul he doesn't need ginny or bassilisk (did i get that right?) to spawn terror on hogwarts... also im not reading the books so spare me if i miss a few points :)

    The whole theory is based on the assumption that the soul is split in half each time.

      are you implying that he clones his entire soul each time because that would be stupid

      BerrieOriginal a fraction. If his intent was to split it in seven parts then he can store it in 1/7th or even less.

      he is implying that Voldemord could as well just put for example 5% fractions into each piece.
      Think about it, you are 16 years old. You just learned about a new spell, why would you split your soul in half instead of easing yourself into it?

      my thoughts exactly.. like what if its a flat rate or something.

      Yeah, that bothers me too. When I read the books I assumed it were just small fractions of his soul that he used, just slivers, that was all that was needed to bind his soul to this realm.

    It would've been smart of Voldemort to make a Horcrux with a pebble.
    Hermione: Have we tried that one yet?
    Harry: That little gray one?
    Hermione: Which gray one?
