I kinda wished the Resurrection Stone was a special type of Philosopher's Stone, not Nicholas Flamel's one. It ties up the books nicely. The Hallow's Philosopher's Stone on the Gaunt Ring is unique because it brings back echoes of dead wizards as well, making the user give up on life despite giving off alchemical properies and production of elixir of life. That's also why the Gaunts were so decadent despite being gifted in magic. Voldermort has to cast it aside as it makes death feel so peaceful and tempts him from becoming immortal. Furthermore, Voldermort may have also used its elixir of life to resurrect his body in the events of rhe Goblet of Fire. Perhaps the during the duel between Harry and Voldermort in the graveyard, he was wearing the Gaunt Ring, which produced the echoes when Harry accidentally triggered the Philosopher's Stone to bring back voices of the victims of Voldermort's wand.
The stone brings back just a shade of the original person, a "half life". That's why the brother commits suicide. This isnt a "raise Lazarus" event. Only God can do that...no magic would ever be able to more than some imaginary semblance of life. Even Ghosts in Harry Potter is no more than some magical leavings that linger; ghosts do not grow emotionally, but are locked into that moment of death, even as they interact with different people.
So the Cloak of Invisibility is the true and more ancient relic of Death since the Elder Wand and the Resurrection Stone were newly creations made on the spot while the Cloak is a piece taken from the ancient Cloak of Death which make it essentially a true part of Death.
But it's not tho...Dumbledore guessed the 3 brothers were talented wizards that made the hallows themselves. And Dumbledores guesses are almost always right.
@Oof Oooof69 all pure bloods are related. James was pure blood and Voldemorts mother was pure blood so they are related. Also they both are descendants from Peverell brothers Harry - youngest Voldemort - middle (resurrection stone was part of his family's ring and it belonged to them for very long time)
@@lunalovegood5129 I like your theory, and I thought of that theory too. But then the possibility came that someone could've taken the stone from him after he died, so I dismissed it.
James possessing the Invisibility Cloak might also explain how the Marauders, were able to commit some of the deeds they did. Assuming he had it at the time.
Remus, Sirius and Dumbledore even confirmed it, actually. It was how they managed to sneak out of the castle once every month to join Remus in his monthly transformations.
Excellent as always, I never get tired of hearing the story of the Three Brothers, it gives us insight that Harry was indeed chosen by blood and by destiny.
I wonder if Voldemort couldve still found them? Maybe he would have abilities to reveal the hidden people, but then again it is a hellow and special cloak. Either way, the parents would probably put Harry under the cloak, and Harry would start crying and blow the entire operation. Babies are dumb.
One of the biggest plot holes or I guess tragedies of the story (depending on how you look at it) occurs when you ask the question "Wouldn't Dumbledore or James have known how useful the cloak might have been/essential to hiding the Potters? Why wouldn't they take no chances when it was known by everyone that they were marked for death?". I mean, It's supposed to protect one from even death himself, which is why Ignotus survived to old age.
Because even if they hid using the cloak, that would mean neville would have been the one who lived. Voldemort heard about the prophecy, that one of the two boys would be the one who will stop him. So in his desperation he tried to kill those two boys. He started with harry, which in return created the boy who will later destroy him. A selffulfilling prophecy no matter what.
I think everyone’s forgetting one thing, there is another invis cloak. Moody has one. It says in order of the Phoenix that he lost his when podmore got arrested
It’s mentioned in the 7th book that there are true invisibility cloaks, however not only are they numbering probably less than a dozen, the charm also wears off in a few years.
There are but Harry's is unique as the other cloaks are a charm that wears off eventually they can also be effected magically I.E Summoning Charm. Harry's cloak was proven resistant to this when they apparated into Hogsmeade.
@@LavitosExodius Moody's magic eye can see Harry under the invisibility cloak. Prof Dumbledore (Prisoner of Azkaban) had told the students (after the sorting) that the Dementors can't be fooled by tricks, disguises, and invisibility cloak. So Dementors too can detect someone underneath Harry's invisibility cloak.
@@erichanastacio9695 I said resistant to magic not immune. This is proven in the book also. Wheter that's and oversight by JK or not is up for debate though. But truth of that matter is a summoning charm was used on it by a death eater in hogsmeade and it had no effect what so ever on the cloak.
@@snoopdiss2300 by that nature wouldn’t 90% of videos on YT be pointless? Being that a single google line would solve/answer most searches.. Just enjoy the content if u don’t you don’t have to say anything.
I have a theory. I think that the story of the 3 brothers was a curse on the family line. For every family member of the original brothers, as long as they had the cloak, they would avoid death. Not avoid it as in becoming immortal but of avoiding a sooner death. So as long as the family had the cloak, they would be protected from death; so when the parents pass the cloak down, they are no longer protected as strongly by the presence of the cloak. Also, if the cloak is not within the possession of the family, they will die as seen by James and Lily. Because James had lent Dumbledore the cloak, they were exposed to death, and soon after, it followed them and it would've gotten Harry if it weren't for Lily's love.
for a large part youre story makes sense where it doesnt make sense is how harry avoided death and voldemorts spell backfired when they were not protected by the cloak,what i think is this death says i am owed a death for a death so he took lilly in exchange for harry and he took james in exchange for voldemort.
He could not. The resurrection stone was out of his reach for years. He didn't know where to find it. He gave Harry the cloak before he had found the stone and stored it in the snitch. He also knew that his time was up, so he gave away the stone too. There is a video that explains really good that Dumbledores greed for the Hallows was immense and that he gave away the cloak, because knew at that time that Harry would have to die either way, because of the prophecy.
He did possess all three. That's how he was able to meet Harry in purgatory. I don't think there's anywhere in the story where it says one must own all three simultaneously.
@@robertmcknightmusicone has to unite all three while being the master of all 3 Dumbledore was never the true master of the cloak Harry was which is why Dumbledore said Harry alone was the true master of death
My greatest question surrounding this cloak is its imperviousness to curses and spells. In the movies Harry sneaks into Malfoy's train car to spy on him. Malfoy senses his presence and casts a curse his way which causes Harry to pass out, missing the de-boarding of the train. I don't remember how this scene went down in the books. Luna then found Harry and woke him up. This seems inconsistent with the premise of the story of the cloak.
@@m8days30 I'm sure it's at least immune to Accio & other similar variants thereof, so you can't yeet it off the owner using it to hide like that (thus making it superior to every other invisibility cloak, in addition to the enchantment simply never wearing down unlike your standard variant)
In the book it is immune from accio later on but I think early, in hagreds place or Snape roaming the halls it isn't. The immunity might have been a retcon if I remember correctly.
I do believe that the inside of the invisibility cloaks are not transparent or invisible that's why to keep it or to see it incase you need it you must have to fold it inside out. I dunno correct me if im wrong.
I love how this 8 minute video could've been summed up with one sentence. The cloak was passed down from generation to generation and one of Harry's ancestors married the heir of Ignotus Peverell, so when Harry's grandparents died it was passed on to James Potter. literally all the other information here is clearly laid out in the books and films.
It also showed the trust and respect James had for Dumbledore. He showed him the Cloak before dying, even though it was family tradition to keep the secret
Being the 3rd brother you’re protected but also feel invisible. So the 3rd brother watched as his two brothers picked objects that prepared them for death. As he wished for an object that can protect him as his brothers did. So he knew he would put live his brothers but wouldn’t be protected. Harry also felt invisible.
This just makes the story of Lilly and James' death even more sad. James was clearly prepared to sacrifice himself for his wife and child and could have easily handed the cloak down to Harry before doing so, allowing Lilly to use it to hide with Harry and escape back to the rest of the order, but they both knew that if Voldemort did find them they needed to die for the spell to take effect when Voldemort attempted to kill Harry, so James handed the cloak to Dumbledore so that he could ensure that it was handed down to his son. If they'd used the invisibility cloak they would have only delayed Voldemort in finding Harry, and countless people would have been murdered before he inevitably did so.
In fact, James handed the cloak to Dumbeldore because he asked to, Dumbledore was amazed and wanted to do some researches on it. When James died, Albus still had the cloak with him and passed it to Harry when he was old enough. There was no planning, the Potters did not plan their sacrifice for harry to acquire that protection, James wanted to fight Voldy but he forgot his wand and therefor was easily killed, Lily begged Voldy to not kill her son, and he actually did not plan to kill her at first, he just wanted Harry. When Lilly did not obey him, Voldemort killed Lilly too and that's when her love started protecting harry, she sacrificed her life for him to survive. It is known that love is a powerful form of magic is the wizarding world.
3:22 based on what Ron says is it safe to assume that there are other objects similar to the invisibility cloak? Were there any attempts at recreating the original invisibility cloak?
In the 7th book, it’s mentioned that any recreations are less powerful - there are accounts of cloaks achieving full invisibility, however the charms always wear off within years. Mad-Eye Moody owned one himself, however it’s unclear whether this was intentional or an oversight on Rowling’s part.
Imagine...if Jame and Lily had the cloak the night they died, they could've just hidden under it or at least one of them with the baby together. and Harry would've not been an orphan
Then neville would have been the boy who lived. It makes no difference. The series name qould be neville longbottom then. The prophecy made voldemort choose who will kill him.
@@mrparkerdan this isn’t true. In the first book two people carry a crate containing a young dragon up to the roof of the castle, all while under the cloak.
James didn't know he was gonna die, so I feel like him giving it to Dumbledore to keep safe was just plot convenience. Because I feel like it was way more likely that someone would have found it in the house after James and Lily died.
It's been a while since I read the books butt I'm certain the brothers made their requests for the gifts as apposed to death offering the specific gifts
Video idea- what happened to Hogwarts after the battle? When was it rebuilt? How was it rebuilt? Who rebuilt it? What happened to students in school at the time Day 9. I have school when u upload so I'm 4 hours late :(
That was why Harry was so loved by the House Elf Dobby because he treated Dobby as an equal and a friend and why the other wizarding creatures liked Harry, because of how he treated Dobby and cried when Belatrix murdered him.
How does the invisibility cloak know what to make invisible? For example, when Harry was wearing it and his leg got trapped in the trick stair, he was invisible, while the stairs around him were not.
Moody's magic eye saw him there. Dementors can't be fooled by tricks, disguises, and invisibility cloak.... said Prof Dumbledore (Prisoner of Azkaban) after the sorting of the students So magic eye and dementors can see or detect anyone under Harry's invisibility cloak.
I have a question. Wasn't harry the master of the Elder wand when Voldemort first killed Harry. I thought the master of the ElderWand could not be killed by the wand. Is it because Harry wanted to die?
With the elder wand you aren’t able to lose a fight. Since Harry wasn’t fighting he was able to die. Since Voldemort took Harry’s blood in the goblet of fire, Voldemort basically became his anchor to life, allowing him to come back after being killed
Harry wasn’t exactly ‘killed’. Since he over-powered Draco in malfoy manor, the elder wand answered to him. So, when voldemort first ‘killed’ harry, harry was still alive, and the horcrux inside him died.
I heard one day he ran into something he thought was spider webs, but when he was done freaking out, he realized it wasn’t spider webs at all, but a cloak.
Point of clarification; The Peverell brothers didn't choose from three specific rewards, as the video implied. They make 3 different wishes and are granted an artifact that would accomplish the goal. The two elder brothers make more arrogant demands that death cunningly made to backfire on them. Ignotus, the youngest brother wished for something that can evade death specifically. Of course, that's the _legend,_ but as Dumbledore suggests, it's almost certain that the brothers were actually gifted (and perhaps a bit dangerous-minded) crafters of magical tools, and these three artifacts are the result. Mind, what are the odds of a single family producing three sons that are all clever enough to make magical tools that no one was able to replicate in the hundreds of years following their deaths? It's a curiosity. I wonder if there was an additional factor at play, like the family stumbling across a secret book of knowledge or something, and they each focused on using it to make different items. That sort of head-canon makes some sense. Actually, aren't two of the items supposed to use Thestral materials on their creation (wand = hair. Cloak = blood.)? Can't remember if that's canon or fanon though. I wonder if they collectively found a secret to utilizing thestral materials in crafting, found it had unique properties for the creation of magical tools, and just took the secret to their collective graves.
My theory is that Dumbledore managed to convince James that it shouldn't be under Voldemorts control should anything happen, playing on James and Lily's fears of an completely undetectable Voldemort. Then he tried to return it to Harry to win favour.
Please can you do more interesting content like a video on how and why Dumbledore has made questionable decisions/actions that have cost the lives of people such as Mad-Eye, Snape, The Potters etc ?
"An old man's mistake" you see(i feel like dharrman) dumbledore is just a wise old grey figure who is wise because of his mistakes he is human so ofcourse he makes mistakes
One thing that bothered me regarding this invisibility cloak. Given the fact that Harry's invisibility cloak was given by the Death, it should have been something rare (or even one-and-only). We know there was only one Elder Wand and there was only one Resurrection Stone (CMIIW). However, we know there were more than one invisibility cloak. Moody had it, we know it from book 5 when Sturgis Podmore borrowed it when he was guarding the door to the prophecy. We also know from book 4 when Harry asked Moody (Barty Crouch jr.) if he saw Rita Skeeter wearing invisibility cloak during Task 2. So, what's the difference between these invisibility cloaks than the Deathly Hallows' invisibility cloak? I'd love to hear what you think! 😊
Yeah and even Ron says he has seen those before so there must be many, I guess there are lots of cheap copies because it doesn't seem like to make an invisibility cloak would require some seriously advanced magic, unlike the wand or resurrection stone. But maybe the cloak given by death is the only one that can keep you hidden from death itself idk
They did not choose each hallow, they told death what they wanted and death fashioned the hallows. Elder wand from a nearby tree, resurrection stone was a pebble on the bank of the river, and the cloak is a cutting from death's own cloak.
Three siblings narrative is usually prominent in fairy tales and folklores and most of the time, it is the youngest who gets lucky like what happened to Ignotus Peverell.
Technically, it was sort of explained in "HP and the DH" book on how James Potter sr. acquired the invisibility cloak; although, not in the fully explanatory way till Harry's Deathlike experience in the forbidden forest.
What I want to know is, how did dumbledore get the elder wand? Was one of his ancestors one of the brothers? If so wouldn’t that make him related to Harry? Can anyone let me know please.
no, his ex-best friend grindleward had dueled for it,and then when dumnledore defeated grindleward(since he was a dark wizard)it fell into his possession if you want a more detailed theory just ask and i will tell you😊
I have a fan theory. Dumbledore was at the murder of Harry's parents with the invisibility cloak on. He has been using it for watching the dark lord and that's how he also knew so much.
"Here's a super secret cloak that we traditionally keep secret." "Cool, HEY DUMBLEDORE! CHECK OUT THIS SWEET INVISI-" "...I'm going to keep this for 13 years."
Only going off the films so anyone tell me I’d this is stupid. What if Harry, Ron and Hermione had burst into the room and attacked Voldemort while he was talking to Snape in the deathly hallows (the scene Snape was killed in) and attacked Voldemort? Sure they couldn’t kill him but how would the story had differed from the original? If I’m correct Voldemort couldn’t of killed Harry then because he was using the elder wand which Harry was the master of so even if he tried to Avada Harry, it wouldn’t work. Snape could of fought with the 3 and either made Voldemort apparate away or killed him (removed him from his body form) leaving only 2 horcruxes left, Harry and Nagini. Of course then you have the problem that he can’t destroy his own horcrux (Harry) if he’s dead so let’s say he just apparated away. Snape would live though
Which houses do you think that the 3 Peverell brothers would be sorted into if they attended Hogwarts? I selected the brothers based on their values and abilities: Antioch: Slytherin (power & ambition) Cadmus: Ravenclaw (mediumship talent) or Hufflepuff(naivety) Ignotus: Gryffindor (bravery) or Ravenclaw (wise).
Cadmus is hufflepuff and ignotus is ravenclaw bc cadmus was never really ambitios or power hungry neither is he brave or wise but Ignotus was wisest of the brothers
That’s pretty crazy. It gives a whole new theory on why the elder wand was loyal to harry. Cause it was made by death and death was an old friend of his ancestor. Or because he’s related to the original owner of the elder want. Not directly but it’s his super great uncle.
@@forfun6273 yes, but "greeted death as an old friend" doesn't necessarily mean that it was mutual. Death searched for the third brother to take him, that doesn't sound like a friend, that sounds like revenge. "Hello old friend" is a common trope in fiction used by the rival that expects to die.

There were invisibility cloaks made by wizards and witches but they could get destroyed, but Harry's cloak is the real one which does not get damaged and there's only one true cloak.
there is only one REAL invisibility cloak,harry's cloak,which will nevr stop working other cloaks(like mad-eye's) are just ordinary cloaks magically jinxed to make people invisible. and the magic in these cloaks is eventually worn off after about 3-7 years
What I dont understand is that the charm should alert them. they should have a wand on or near by ( know they are at their home) alarm. they see its voldemort. run and grab harry. grab lilly/grab james and teleport
This is what I have never understood. Ron seems to imply, that there are more invicibility cloaks in existance: "they're really rare, and really valuable" But if the invicibility cloak was given by death to the youngest brother, and it was inherited by his children and so on and so on, eventually making its way to Harry, how can there be more? And with the other deathly hallows, they're unique, why the invicibility cloak isn't? Shouldn't Ron be as clueless as Harry as to what the cloak is? And if there are more, at what point did those come to be, and how? Did someone figure out a way to produce it or something? If anyone knows anything about this, please do enlighten me!
It was sad that the importance of the cloak of invisibility's value was sadly diminished in both the book and the movies. Although it was useful to Harry, it was never confirmed in the movies that this was the actual Deathly Hallow cloak nor was the cloak unique in the books. Ron diminishes the cloak's value straight away by saying "I have heard of those, they are quite rare" which immediately tells you there are many such things in the world already. In the books invisibility cloaks were often used by characters who were guarding Harry, like Mundungus Fletcher. If J.K. had given the Deathly Hallows a little more forethought, perhaps making the Cloak of Invisibility unique in the world could have made it a more sought after prize, but alas... Earwax.
@@owenblount7334 I am sure we all wish to believe that Harry has THE cloak, but there is nowhere in the movies or books that states that Harry's cloak is the actual Deathly Hallow Cloak.
Here's a subtle "What If" that i think would have significant impact on the following events: What if,because Harry trained on and perfected the Acio charm in the heat of battle (well, deal with a dragon, anyways), being in RECENT MEMORY, he uses ACIO to secure the Marauders Map while he is stuck in the trick staircase. The Barty Jr. Moody would never have seen it. Interesting, no? And honestly, makes WAY MORE sense for Harry to think of AND USE a newly acquired spell. Have an awesome day! 😊
Mostly unrelated, but it's funny to think that Voldemort, in his mission to unite and build up pure blood wizardry, wiped out or attempted to wipe out, multiple storied lines of wizards himself or through his actions. Peverell/Potter nearly on the night he attacked Harry, Slytherin/Gaunt, Black, and probably more that I'm not aware of.
My question is The invisibility cloak was one of the deathly hallows so it hid the wearer from death However we know there are other invisibility cloaks are these lesser? Are these copies (if so how did they make copies if the cloak was in one family for generations)
Also… How did he get all that gold? My theory is that he got it from Dumbledore through Dumbledore’s partnership with Nicholas Flamel and the sorcerer’s stone being able to create gold.
The only thing I've still never understood about the invisibility cloak was that it itself was one of the 3 deathly hollows. Meaning there was only one of each. But the way Ron had known about "them" means that he's implying there is more than one original invisibility cloak which would make no sense...
After I first read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, I deduced large sections of what was in this upload. All the same though, it’s great having it all in one place to refer to. Only thing, didn’t Sirius Black acquaint with James’ parents before they died? This upload makes it look as though James did not inherit the invisibility cloak until after the death of his father, but that doesn’t measure up against the way he and his friends utilized it while they were at school and when Sirius hid out with James and his parents after running away from home. Did I miss something?
So reading the books multiple cloaks are mentioned a couple of times. Even when Harry first gets his Ron says "they are super rare" suggests he's not only heard of it but also that a number of people have one... I'm like half way through deathly hallows so far (that just got away from the mom and are in the forest) so I'm confused how it can be a Halloween if more than one exist.
@Clover yeah I finished the book now 😂 still huge plot holes with the "real" one though like how moody can see through it or how albus and nagini could see them under it too.
@@Stephen-N I wouldn’t really say it’s a plot hole, the cloak was made ages ago and wizards especially more powerful ones are more advanced when Harry Potter has it. The hallows aren’t supposed to be perfect. The stone doesn’t actually revive people from the dead and the wand doesn’t just work with full power to whoever has it
How does Mad Eye Moody's eye see through the cloak when it's supposedly deaths cloak and it's supposed to be better than other invisibility cloaks I can see Moody's eye working on those cloaks but the Deathly Hallow has always throw me off a little bit
Pretty sure that eye is yoinked from dumbledore’s old associate grindlewald who was also searching for the hallows so it kinda makes sense that he would find a way to enchant his eye to find them although it’s still a feat that honestly makes no sense because it’s so impressive
In the Prisoner of Azkaban, Prof Dumbledore told the students (after the sorting) that Dementors can't be fooled by tricks, disguises, and invisibility cloak. So Magic Eye and Dementors can detect someone underneath Harry's invisibility cloak.

There are other invisibility cloaks but none are like Harry's.
It’s mentioned in the 7th book that there are true invisibility cloaks, however not only are they numbering probably less than a dozen, the charm also wears off in a few years.
There are but Harry's is unique as the other cloaks are a charm that wears off eventually they can also be effected magically I.E Summoning Charm. Harry's cloak was proven resistant to this when they apparated into Hogsmeade.
@@LavitosExodius
Moody's magic eye can see Harry under the invisibility cloak.
Prof Dumbledore (Prisoner of Azkaban) had told the students (after the sorting) that the Dementors can't be fooled by tricks, disguises, and invisibility cloak.
So Dementors too can detect someone underneath Harry's invisibility cloak.
@@erichanastacio9695 I said resistant to magic not immune. This is proven in the book also. Wheter that's and oversight by JK or not is up for debate though. But truth of that matter is a summoning charm was used on it by a death eater in hogsmeade and it had no effect what so ever on the cloak.

@@premejon8300 shut up
I have a theory. I think that the story of the 3 brothers was a curse on the family line. For every family member of the original brothers, as long as they had the cloak, they would avoid death. Not avoid it as in becoming immortal but of avoiding a sooner death. So as long as the family had the cloak, they would be protected from death; so when the parents pass the cloak down, they are no longer protected as strongly by the presence of the cloak. Also, if the cloak is not within the possession of the family, they will die as seen by James and Lily. Because James had lent Dumbledore the cloak, they were exposed to death, and soon after, it followed them and it would've gotten Harry if it weren't for Lily's love.
for a large part youre story makes sense where it doesnt make sense is how harry avoided death and voldemorts spell backfired when they were not protected by the cloak,what i think is this death says i am owed a death for a death so he took lilly in exchange for harry and he took james in exchange for voldemort.
I think Dumbledore giving the cloak to harry proves his character.
He could have had all three if he wanted
He could not. The resurrection stone was out of his reach for years. He didn't know where to find it. He gave Harry the cloak before he had found the stone and stored it in the snitch. He also knew that his time was up, so he gave away the stone too. There is a video that explains really good that Dumbledores greed for the Hallows was immense and that he gave away the cloak, because knew at that time that Harry would have to die either way, because of the prophecy.
He did possess all three. That's how he was able to meet Harry in purgatory. I don't think there's anywhere in the story where it says one must own all three simultaneously.
@@robertmcknightmusicone has to unite all three while being the master of all 3 Dumbledore was never the true master of the cloak Harry was which is why Dumbledore said Harry alone was the true master of death
@@AlexMason-45 Hence why Harry could come back to life, while Dumbledore could not.
My greatest question surrounding this cloak is its imperviousness to curses and spells. In the movies Harry sneaks into Malfoy's train car to spy on him. Malfoy senses his presence and casts a curse his way which causes Harry to pass out, missing the de-boarding of the train. I don't remember how this scene went down in the books. Luna then found Harry and woke him up. This seems inconsistent with the premise of the story of the cloak.
I’m gonna repost this so I get answers I’m also gonna copy and paste it into Chatgpt I need answers 😂
I asked Chatgpt and they said in short it doesn’t make you invulnerable to all spells and curses
@@m8days30 I'm sure it's at least immune to Accio & other similar variants thereof, so you can't yeet it off the owner using it to hide like that (thus making it superior to every other invisibility cloak, in addition to the enchantment simply never wearing down unlike your standard variant)
In the book it is immune from accio later on but I think early, in hagreds place or Snape roaming the halls it isn't.
The immunity might have been a retcon if I remember correctly.
I am sure all real fans of HP, know the reason!!!
What is it? I'm not a harry potter fan
because harry potter is the main character so naturally he must have a deathly hallows to start with and then go on to have all of them
@@vondussela.alayon5056 the sons take the cloak from their dad when they die.

Yeah I know it
If you drop the invisibility cloak on the floor. how do you find it again?
lmao
If you dropped it on the floor.... Can you see anything THROUGH the floor?
I do believe that the inside of the invisibility cloaks are not transparent or invisible that's why to keep it or to see it incase you need it you must have to fold it inside out. I dunno correct me if im wrong.
Its only invisble when the holder wants it to be duh
Would love to see a movie based on the “hogwarts a history” book hermoine is always referencing.
I love how this 8 minute video could've been summed up with one sentence.
The cloak was passed down from generation to generation and one of Harry's ancestors married the heir of Ignotus Peverell, so when Harry's grandparents died it was passed on to James Potter.
literally all the other information here is clearly laid out in the books and films.
Yeah sometimes these videos are stretching, answering questions no one asked.
Sometimes after reading we miss details. Especially since there are so many details
I haven't read the books in years. It's good to have channels like these that compile the lore
You’re assuming the viewers has read or seen the movies. Some folks might have forgotten the details.
It also showed the trust and respect James had for Dumbledore. He showed him the Cloak before dying, even though it was family tradition to keep the secret
This channel anwears all of my questions i had for last 20 years. Thank you!
Being the 3rd brother you’re protected but also feel invisible. So the 3rd brother watched as his two brothers picked objects that prepared them for death. As he wished for an object that can protect him as his brothers did. So he knew he would put live his brothers but wouldn’t be protected. Harry also felt invisible.
This just makes the story of Lilly and James' death even more sad. James was clearly prepared to sacrifice himself for his wife and child and could have easily handed the cloak down to Harry before doing so, allowing Lilly to use it to hide with Harry and escape back to the rest of the order, but they both knew that if Voldemort did find them they needed to die for the spell to take effect when Voldemort attempted to kill Harry, so James handed the cloak to Dumbledore so that he could ensure that it was handed down to his son. If they'd used the invisibility cloak they would have only delayed Voldemort in finding Harry, and countless people would have been murdered before he inevitably did so.
In fact, James handed the cloak to Dumbeldore because he asked to, Dumbledore was amazed and wanted to do some researches on it. When James died, Albus still had the cloak with him and passed it to Harry when he was old enough. There was no planning, the Potters did not plan their sacrifice for harry to acquire that protection, James wanted to fight Voldy but he forgot his wand and therefor was easily killed, Lily begged Voldy to not kill her son, and he actually did not plan to kill her at first, he just wanted Harry. When Lilly did not obey him, Voldemort killed Lilly too and that's when her love started protecting harry, she sacrificed her life for him to survive. It is known that love is a powerful form of magic is the wizarding world.
3:22 based on what Ron says is it safe to assume that there are other objects similar to the invisibility cloak? Were there any attempts at recreating the original invisibility cloak?
Xenophilius (sp) says as much, but that they are less powerful.
In the 7th book, it’s mentioned that any recreations are less powerful - there are accounts of cloaks achieving full invisibility, however the charms always wear off within years. Mad-Eye Moody owned one himself, however it’s unclear whether this was intentional or an oversight on Rowling’s part.
Imagine...if Jame and Lily had the cloak the night they died, they could've just hidden under it or at least one of them with the baby together. and Harry would've not been an orphan
New theory: Dumbledore knew Voldemort was coming and that the Potters must die so Harry could defeat Voldemort - that's why he borrowed the Cloak.
and the story would not be interesting lol Conflict makes the story wise..
Then neville would have been the boy who lived. It makes no difference. The series name qould be neville longbottom then. The prophecy made voldemort choose who will kill him.
The cloak was only big enough to hide 1 person
@@mrparkerdan this isn’t true. In the first book two people carry a crate containing a young dragon up to the roof of the castle, all while under the cloak.

James didn't know he was gonna die, so I feel like him giving it to Dumbledore to keep safe was just plot convenience. Because I feel like it was way more likely that someone would have found it in the house after James and Lily died.
It's been a while since I read the books butt I'm certain the brothers made their requests for the gifts as apposed to death offering the specific gifts
Video idea- what happened to Hogwarts after the battle? When was it rebuilt? How was it rebuilt? Who rebuilt it? What happened to students in school at the time

Very nice video you deserve 100 million subscribers i hope you reach 1 million subscribers by the end of this year. I liked and subscribed
That was why Harry was so loved by the House Elf Dobby because he treated Dobby as an equal and a friend and why the other wizarding creatures liked Harry, because of how he treated Dobby and cried when Belatrix murdered him.
How does the invisibility cloak know what to make invisible? For example, when Harry was wearing it and his leg got trapped in the trick stair, he was invisible, while the stairs around him were not.
Magic
By that logic, it's turtles all the way down.
Moody's magic eye saw him there.
Dementors can't be fooled by tricks, disguises, and invisibility cloak.... said Prof Dumbledore (Prisoner of Azkaban) after the sorting of the students
So magic eye and dementors can see or detect anyone under Harry's invisibility cloak.
I have a question. Wasn't harry the master of the Elder wand when Voldemort first killed Harry. I thought the master of the ElderWand could not be killed by the wand. Is it because Harry wanted to die?
As far as I know ,Harry wasn't killed that time.ge was pretending too
With the elder wand you aren’t able to lose a fight. Since Harry wasn’t fighting he was able to die. Since Voldemort took Harry’s blood in the goblet of fire, Voldemort basically became his anchor to life, allowing him to come back after being killed
@@RobertFerro3 Thank u
Harry wasn’t exactly ‘killed’.
Since he over-powered Draco in malfoy manor, the elder wand answered to him.
So, when voldemort first ‘killed’ harry, harry was still alive, and the horcrux inside him died.
He didn't kill harry, he destroyed his own horcrux
This channel is so good. Bravo.
Thank you very much!
I heard one day he ran into something he thought was spider webs, but when he was done freaking out, he realized it wasn’t spider webs at all, but a cloak.
Answer starts at 4:53
Point of clarification; The Peverell brothers didn't choose from three specific rewards, as the video implied. They make 3 different wishes and are granted an artifact that would accomplish the goal. The two elder brothers make more arrogant demands that death cunningly made to backfire on them. Ignotus, the youngest brother wished for something that can evade death specifically.
Of course, that's the _legend,_ but as Dumbledore suggests, it's almost certain that the brothers were actually gifted (and perhaps a bit dangerous-minded) crafters of magical tools, and these three artifacts are the result. Mind, what are the odds of a single family producing three sons that are all clever enough to make magical tools that no one was able to replicate in the hundreds of years following their deaths? It's a curiosity. I wonder if there was an additional factor at play, like the family stumbling across a secret book of knowledge or something, and they each focused on using it to make different items. That sort of head-canon makes some sense. Actually, aren't two of the items supposed to use Thestral materials on their creation (wand = hair. Cloak = blood.)? Can't remember if that's canon or fanon though. I wonder if they collectively found a secret to utilizing thestral materials in crafting, found it had unique properties for the creation of magical tools, and just took the secret to their collective graves.
This so much. Ive seen a few of his videos now where he says they chose from specific rewards and not wished for them but no one seems to notice!
I always thought about that thx for the explanation!
I always loved how the James in the movie looked middle aged but he died at 21
Dobby is happy to see Potterheads in the comment section
I liked Dobby better when he was dead 😂
SQUARE UP BRUH DOBY IS THE MAIN CHARACTER
I promise anyone watching this video already knows the three brothers story by heart
My theory is that Dumbledore managed to convince James that it shouldn't be under Voldemorts control should anything happen, playing on James and Lily's fears of an completely undetectable Voldemort. Then he tried to return it to Harry to win favour.
I am early btw good video I love it and your channel
so for quite some time Dumbledore possessed all the deathly hallows, no wonder he didn't need the philosophers stone any more
he had the cloak and the wand, but got the stone (in the ring) after he gave the cloak to harry
@diggsfather he would have had the stone and the wand and the cloak from the beginning of the series, why would he not have had the stone before ?

One thing that bothered me regarding this invisibility cloak. Given the fact that Harry's invisibility cloak was given by the Death, it should have been something rare (or even one-and-only). We know there was only one Elder Wand and there was only one Resurrection Stone (CMIIW). However, we know there were more than one invisibility cloak. Moody had it, we know it from book 5 when Sturgis Podmore borrowed it when he was guarding the door to the prophecy. We also know from book 4 when Harry asked Moody (Barty Crouch jr.) if he saw Rita Skeeter wearing invisibility cloak during Task 2. So, what's the difference between these invisibility cloaks than the Deathly Hallows' invisibility cloak? I'd love to hear what you think! 😊
Yeah and even Ron says he has seen those before so there must be many, I guess there are lots of cheap copies because it doesn't seem like to make an invisibility cloak would require some seriously advanced magic, unlike the wand or resurrection stone. But maybe the cloak given by death is the only one that can keep you hidden from death itself idk
8 minute video. He inherited it.
They did not choose each hallow, they told death what they wanted and death fashioned the hallows. Elder wand from a nearby tree, resurrection stone was a pebble on the bank of the river, and the cloak is a cutting from death's own cloak.

Three siblings narrative is usually prominent in fairy tales and folklores and most of the time, it is the youngest who gets lucky like what happened to Ignotus Peverell.
Technically, it was sort of explained in "HP and the DH" book on how James Potter sr. acquired the invisibility cloak; although, not in the fully explanatory way till Harry's Deathlike experience in the forbidden forest.
What I want to know is, how did dumbledore get the elder wand? Was one of his ancestors one of the brothers? If so wouldn’t that make him related to Harry? Can anyone let me know please.
no, his ex-best friend grindleward had dueled for it,and then when dumnledore defeated grindleward(since he was a dark wizard)it fell into his possession

I have a fan theory. Dumbledore was at the murder of Harry's parents with the invisibility cloak on. He has been using it for watching the dark lord and that's how he also knew so much.

TBF he couldn't give it back to James cuz he pepsi'd 2 days after giving it to Dumbledore temporarily when he showed it to him for the first time
I always forget that Harry’s dad just casually left a 12 year old one of the most powerful magic artefacts in existence.
Only going off the films so anyone tell me I’d this is stupid. What if Harry, Ron and Hermione had burst into the room and attacked Voldemort while he was talking to Snape in the deathly hallows (the scene Snape was killed in) and attacked Voldemort? Sure they couldn’t kill him but how would the story had differed from the original? If I’m correct Voldemort couldn’t of killed Harry then because he was using the elder wand which Harry was the master of so even if he tried to Avada Harry, it wouldn’t work. Snape could of fought with the 3 and either made Voldemort apparate away or killed him (removed him from his body form) leaving only 2 horcruxes left, Harry and Nagini. Of course then you have the problem that he can’t destroy his own horcrux (Harry) if he’s dead so let’s say he just apparated away. Snape would live though
harrys mom was a muggle? i thought she did a protective charm on harry before she died?
She was a muggle-born.
Which houses do you think that the 3 Peverell brothers would be sorted into if they attended Hogwarts? I selected the brothers based on their values and abilities:
Antioch: Slytherin (power & ambition)
Cadmus: Ravenclaw (mediumship talent) or Hufflepuff(naivety)
Ignotus: Gryffindor (bravery) or Ravenclaw (wise).
Cadmus is hufflepuff and ignotus is ravenclaw bc cadmus was never really ambitios or power hungry neither is he brave or wise but Ignotus was wisest of the brothers
Ignotus wasn’t brave, brave people dont hide
Very good video. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Just curious was the Sorcerer's Stone the same stone talked about in this video? My son says it is different.
Yes, they’re different. The Philosopher’s stone was made by Nicholas Flamel and was destroyed at the end of the first book.
That’s pretty crazy. It gives a whole new theory on why the elder wand was loyal to harry. Cause it was made by death and death was an old friend of his ancestor. Or because he’s related to the original owner of the elder want. Not directly but it’s his super great uncle.
Voldemort's ancestor is the second brother, so that theory kind of falls flat.
@@H0uxdubxston the second brother wasn’t greeted as an old friend.
@@forfun6273 yes, but "greeted death as an old friend" doesn't necessarily mean that it was mutual. Death searched for the third brother to take him, that doesn't sound like a friend, that sounds like revenge. "Hello old friend" is a common trope in fiction used by the rival that expects to die.

Was there ever more then one invisibility cloak?
There were invisibility cloaks made by wizards and witches but they could get destroyed, but Harry's cloak is the real one which does not get damaged and there's only one true cloak.
there is only one REAL invisibility cloak,harry's cloak,which will nevr stop working
other cloaks(like mad-eye's) are just ordinary cloaks magically jinxed to make people invisible. and the magic in these cloaks is eventually worn off after about 3-7 years
Simply because every generation of potter's outside of Hardwin are descendents of Ignotes Peverell
amazing vid
its always facinating to hear about the liniage of an interesting family
What I dont understand is that the charm should alert them. they should have a wand on or near by ( know they are at their home) alarm. they see its voldemort. run and grab harry. grab lilly/grab james and teleport
This is what I have never understood. Ron seems to imply, that there are more invicibility cloaks in existance: "they're really rare, and really valuable"
But if the invicibility cloak was given by death to the youngest brother, and it was inherited by his children and so on and so on, eventually making its way to Harry, how can there be more?
And with the other deathly hallows, they're unique, why the invicibility cloak isn't?
Shouldn't Ron be as clueless as Harry as to what the cloak is?
And if there are more, at what point did those come to be, and how? Did someone figure out a way to produce it or something?
If anyone knows anything about this, please do enlighten me!
Are there more than one Cloaks of Invisibility? Could you make such a video @HarryPotterTheory?
I'm just amazed how no one puts much thought on the cloak, Harry literally has Death's cloak in his hands and that's something one should be baffled.
TITLE: *How Did James Potter Get the Invisibility Cloak?*
ME: "Let me describe, in detail, why that is a stupid question."
It was sad that the importance of the cloak of invisibility's value was sadly diminished in both the book and the movies. Although it was useful to Harry, it was never confirmed in the movies that this was the actual Deathly Hallow cloak nor was the cloak unique in the books. Ron diminishes the cloak's value straight away by saying "I have heard of those, they are quite rare" which immediately tells you there are many such things in the world already. In the books invisibility cloaks were often used by characters who were guarding Harry, like Mundungus Fletcher.
If J.K. had given the Deathly Hallows a little more forethought, perhaps making the Cloak of Invisibility unique in the world could have made it a more sought after prize, but alas... Earwax.
Yes there’s other cloaks but Harry’s is THE CLOAK it’s permanently invisible the other imperfect cloaks charms wear off eventually THE CLOAK doesn’t
@@owenblount7334 I am sure we all wish to believe that Harry has THE cloak, but there is nowhere in the movies or books that states that Harry's cloak is the actual Deathly Hallow Cloak.
Harry's (or Death's) cloak is different from the others in that the charm never wears off.
Here's a subtle "What If" that i think would have significant impact on the following events:
What if,because Harry trained on and perfected the Acio charm in the heat of battle (well, deal with a dragon, anyways), being in RECENT MEMORY, he uses ACIO to secure the Marauders Map while he is stuck in the trick staircase. The Barty Jr. Moody would never have seen it.
Interesting, no? And honestly, makes WAY MORE sense for Harry to think of AND USE a newly acquired spell.
Have an awesome day! 😊
i love this channel
When harry got the resurrection, why he didn’t call dumbledore? Please make a video on this 🇧🇩
Skip to 4:55
He takes forever to get to the point
Mostly unrelated, but it's funny to think that Voldemort, in his mission to unite and build up pure blood wizardry, wiped out or attempted to wipe out, multiple storied lines of wizards himself or through his actions. Peverell/Potter nearly on the night he attacked Harry, Slytherin/Gaunt, Black, and probably more that I'm not aware of.
My question is The invisibility cloak was one of the deathly hallows so it hid the wearer from death
However we know there are other invisibility cloaks are these lesser? Are these copies (if so how did they make copies if the cloak was in one family for generations)
Also… How did he get all that gold? My theory is that he got it from Dumbledore through Dumbledore’s partnership with Nicholas Flamel and the sorcerer’s stone being able to create gold.
@Mr Doctors13 ah!
The cloak is stealthy enough to evade the devil, too weak to escape Moody's eye.
The only thing I've still never understood about the invisibility cloak was that it itself was one of the 3 deathly hollows. Meaning there was only one of each. But the way Ron had known about "them" means that he's implying there is more than one original invisibility cloak which would make no sense...
There’s other invisibility cloaks. It’s explained that they lose power over time and are not complete like the hallow cloak is.
@@thexxx1 ok so Ron and Harry had no clue then what that actually cloak was. Just thought it was another invis cloak then. Thanks for clearing that up
After I first read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, I deduced large sections of what was in this upload. All the same though, it’s great having it all in one place to refer to. Only thing, didn’t Sirius Black acquaint with James’ parents before they died? This upload makes it look as though James did not inherit the invisibility cloak until after the death of his father, but that doesn’t measure up against the way he and his friends utilized it while they were at school and when Sirius hid out with James and his parents after running away from home. Did I miss something?
So reading the books multiple cloaks are mentioned a couple of times. Even when Harry first gets his Ron says "they are super rare" suggests he's not only heard of it but also that a number of people have one... I'm like half way through deathly hallows so far (that just got away from the mom and are in the forest) so I'm confused how it can be a Halloween if more than one exist.
The book explains that part
@Clover yeah I finished the book now 😂 still huge plot holes with the "real" one though like how moody can see through it or how albus and nagini could see them under it too.
@@Stephen-N I wouldn’t really say it’s a plot hole, the cloak was made ages ago and wizards especially more powerful ones are more advanced when Harry Potter has it. The hallows aren’t supposed to be perfect. The stone doesn’t actually revive people from the dead and the wand doesn’t just work with full power to whoever has it
Even in the book, the story is just a metaphor of the very skillful, genius siblings creating relic CMIIW
My question, so does the owner have to wear it all the time? Or death finds them?

I can see where JK got the name Iolanthe from She was a Fairy in a Gilbert & Sullivan operetta of the same name..
How does Mad Eye Moody's eye see through the cloak when it's supposedly deaths cloak and it's supposed to be better than other invisibility cloaks I can see Moody's eye working on those cloaks but the Deathly Hallow has always throw me off a little bit
A mistake while writing and making changes to the big story. Unless the eye Moody /Crouch had was made by someone just as magical. 👁
Pretty sure that eye is yoinked from dumbledore’s old associate grindlewald who was also searching for the hallows so it kinda makes sense that he would find a way to enchant his eye to find them although it’s still a feat that honestly makes no sense because it’s so impressive
In the Prisoner of Azkaban, Prof Dumbledore told the students (after the sorting) that Dementors can't be fooled by tricks, disguises, and invisibility cloak.
So Magic Eye and Dementors can detect someone underneath Harry's invisibility cloak.
