    Most other benders usually know ONE specialized bending technique other than their standard element bending.
    But Toph learned TWO specialized bending techniques, Metalbending AND Sandbending on top of Earthbending. And one of which, Toph discovered herself.
    So, just imagine, how skilled and powerful Toph really is.

    Zuko used combustion bending when attempting lightning bending, although he used his hands instead of the third eye so it blew up in his face.. I think Combustion bending might be directing energy down to a singular point causing an explosion, with the mastered version being a third eye where you visualize channeling you energy to a specific point prior to detonation

    Kyoshi was able to defeat Yun by lowering his body's temperature till freezing point, a technique she learnt from the Best Healer from the Northern Water Tribe.
    Somehow, they didn't know that they were actually BLOODBENDING!
    Bloodbending is very scary. It wasn't explored fully in the Avatar films.
    You could boil or freeze a person, extract the blood somehow 🤷🏾‍♂️ and even locate organisms or stuff in a person's body by feeling the vibrations in the individual's blood. A bloodbender should know if someone is lying too because they should be able to feel the blood around the heart or the heart's beat itself.
    Also the subskill of using SONAR (similar to Earthbending's Seismic skill) was never explored in any of the films, neither was echolocation and heating water. If one could freeze water, heating water should be child's play. 😁
    And subskills like swampbending and sandbending were not included in this video.
    Sandbending is very powerful. Yun became almost unbeatable because he could mould earth or sand to a fluid-like state or even use it as explosives.

    Something I want to point out is that I think the creators of Avatar briefly mention that they considered using the Chinese five elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water).

      Yeah the fact wood has never been manipulated is kind of unusual to me. I think this may have been a purposeful choice to stay away from any comparison to Naruto given how wood jutsu is literally the most powerful form of kekei genkai. I do think that wood bending is a perfect spiritual art form of earth bending where it csn only be done by manipulating the resonant spirit inside of inanimate objects and what's grown naturally by mother earth. In the shkwz earth bending is never shown to really have any spiritual side as a foil to air bending but I don't think that's fair to the art as well.

      Firebenders use the heat around them, like willing the air to combust while using their own chi as a fuel source. Lava is the purest form of earth, so a small group of Earthbenders could wield it too.

      Both water benders and earth benders can manipulate mud, since it is made of both mediums.
      Water benders and air benders can manipulate cloud, since it is made of both mediums.
      Ergo, lava is both a fire and an earth element, making it bendable by both groups.
      Although in the case of lava, it's being bent in different methods; an earth bender would be manipulating the lava itself, being liquid rock, but the fire bender would manipulate the heat/combustive energy contained within it.
      On that note, a sufficiently powerful fire bender should be able to create a *_nuclear reaction, by fire bending atoms into splitting, creating entire stars and atomic bombs._*

      I actually agree about this. Spiritual projection should be done by any bender who is exceptionally spiritual enough to do so. But i guess the ability appears to be exclusive to airbenders because airbending itself is very rooted to spirituality. Airbenders practice spirituality as a daily lifestyle, as an everyday part of their culture. So over the centuries, millennia, i guess they’ve mastered spirituality to a tee more than the other benders. Hence the spiritual projection abilities.

    I feel like it's pretty clear that if waterbending can block chi paths, it can also heal them, my guess as to why no bender has ever been able to achieve it is because, 1) blood bending is already rare enough 2) blocked chi paths are also a rarity, something that for the most part we've seen can be healed through other means, making it not a necessity for water benders and 3) sheer complexity, destroying is easier than repairing, but it would not surprise for someone like kathara, with sufficient practice to be able of figuring out how to fix them.

    Since waterbenders can already bend blood and water inside living beings, what's stopping them from bending water inside neurons to influence someone's mind aka Jedi mind trick. This would be an insanely advanced form of waterbending as the waterbender would have to manipulate water with god-level precision at such small scale. And theoreticaly firebenders could also influence mind by manipulating the electrical signals between neurons. Both of these techniques would require extreme level of skill. Elemental bending has basically unlimited potential if you think about it.

    • @zachmach9588
      @zachmach9588 Год назад

      True, even though I haven’t watch LOK yet, I don’t think anyone (before, during or after the time of Aang) would know of anything like cells. Even though Earthbenders like Kyoshi were able to prolong their life due to a sophisticated technique whereby they would be able to bend their cells and sometimes put themselves in a “cryogenic” state so that they wouldn’t age, I don’t think they actually knew they were composed of cells. I’m sure you may know this, but even though a neuron can be as long as 1 metre, they’re only about 0.1mm wide. I’m other words, they probably don’t know about brain cells and wouldn’t be able to bend it. If you think about it, benders only bend what they have knowledge of, even if they haven’t done it before; Toph bent the *Earth* in the metal. Iroh probably saw lightning in nature and somehow made a bridge between fire and lightning (how? I don’t know) etc. I hoped this helped!

    It’s crazy because a lot of these variations of bending are still rooted in the 4-5 basic elements of Avatar. With that being said, couldn’t the Avatar perform like crazy ass variations of bending? It’s been shown that an Avatar can use all the elements at once and if Naruto has taught me anything, the ability to use multiple elements at once can lead to the use of new elements. For example, Aang could combine water and fire bending and use steam bending or boil bending. Water and Earth could be combined for a possible plant bending or mud bending. Aang could probably manipulate things like clay since it’s composed of water, earth, and heat. There’s just a lot of potential

    One little nitpick; absorption of lightning isn’t possible, if I recall correctly, or it’s at least not something you’d survive. You can only redirect it due to its innate lethality and destructive abilities. Only channeling it through your body and out will result in a bender’s survival. Almost like a given firebender that knows how to do it is functioning as a conduit, essentially. Correct me if I’m wrong, but yeah.

    I think it would've been better if it was shown that Blood bending is an advance form Healing.
    Katara mastered blood bending without a Full-Moon but used the principles to further develop Healing-Bending to such an extent that she can regrow Limbs.
    In her late 20's, Katara should've been capable of regrowing Organs too.
    Katara taught this advance form of Healing Arts to many Water benders but Amon was eventually able to discover that the same principles can allow him to perform Blood-Bending.
    Thus Water-Tribes must have very selected individuals trained in advance Healing Arts as the same techniques could lead to Blood Bending.
    Thus regrowing Organs & Limbs must required many approvals from higher Ups of the State of Tribe.
    Toph in her lifetime should've learnt & discovered these bendings:-
    (1) Earth Bending
    (2) Mud Bending
    (3) Metal Bending
    (4) Sesmic Sense
    (5) Vegetation Bending
    (6) Gravity Bending
    (7) Sand Bending
    (8) Lava Bending
    One of the reason Toph was able to survive for so long should've been her ability to merge with Trees through Earth Bending to prolong her Life.
    Water-Benders should be able to do these bending as well:-
    (1) Mud Bending
    (2) Vegetation Bending

    With the correct knowledge a air bender can do many of these things and more any air bender can fly if you compress air just enough to create a push under you then just pressurized wind pushing against the right areas according to weight and just adjust the strength of the pressurized wind on certain points to control orientation and direction.
    And no I’m not referencing specifically the show, I’m referencing towards the lore of everything that if bending elements was real an air bender can bend much more than what some may think, for example metal bending including pure metals. What I mean is pressurized air. Use science and your imagination to figure it out also, condensed air to a certain point would create plasma of which would melt the metal unless you can make it small enough to use it to very quickly weld metal, btw yes I know it would take concentration and a lot of it.

      I think the departure from Water bending's ability to heal is that the Fire Sage could only use her Bending to diagnose the problem, not deal with it. It is a lot more restricted. Though, that does raise the question of whether a Fire bender could unblock someone's Chi. After Tai Li used it on the Earth benders at the Wall of Ba Sing Se, Katara could do very little to aid recovery. Perhaps a Fire bender with the necessary skill could have.

    I'm genuinely curious if fire benders could manipulate their target's body temperature causing instant hyperthermia? It would be something that could be considered taboo like blood bending or forgotten art like bone bending.

    You forgot
    sand bending: used my desert people to move there sleds.
    Mud bending/ swamp bending: used by swamp monster people
    Crystal bending: I think it was ang who made a crystal armer set once
    And ice bending: which was a variant of water bending that katara had to learn from the other water tribe but it's so commonly used I think it'd just assumed most water benders can do it

      Yeah ice bending is just waterbending. But the other 2 were pretty good

    Toph wasn't joking when she said she is the greatest earthbender in the world. 🔥

    Combustion bending is the most underrated

    Combusting bending was a double edged sword, if anyone hit the third eye hard enough(to mess with the chi flow I guess) or consealing or deflecting the combustion or eye itself ends up having deadly consequences. It was extremely powerful and cool though.

    The new earth avatar should explore combustionbending and sandbending, especially combustionbending without telekinesis and maybe conventionally using his hands like a normal bender.

    Water benders can also plant bend. And Toph was able to bend the meteorite so, that means earth benders aren't limited to just bending the Earth. So, could a powerful enough earth bender, bend another planet or an asteroid that was entering Earth's atmosphere? Depending on if it's mostly made out of rock or ice of course. What other specialized bending should exist? Maybe air benders could create clouds or storms (water benders could also do this then).

      Could a powerful Earth bender bend the moon?

    Idk if this was mentioned, but Blue firebending was another form of bending. Even though it's a variation, I thought I'd point it out anyways.

    i recon lava bending can only work if either your parents are fire and earth benders or you can use earth and fire bending like the avatar

    Really good video, would be cool if some wind bender had like a "void" power where they could create black holes or something

    • @thumbsup8985
      @thumbsup8985 2 года назад

      Theoretically, that could be a power of any bender. Though something like this seems more applicable to earth bending, evidenced by how ang turns those giant boulders into those hyper dense pebbles for his fight with ozi.

    if earthbender could use seismic sense, by same logic, airbender could utilize air as Radar

      Ice anyone can do it, swamp is just water in plants.
      Sand yeah he forgot, as well as mud.
      He forgot glass as well
