What's your favourite fact that I did or didn't mention?!

[@morteniversen4981]

It is funny that they stat that Vader having problems rising hes arms over hes head, when he do just that when he throw darth sidious in to the DS2 core ;-)

[@David-ps1rz]

Favorite fact is that the suit is designed to cause him pain. Was a concept that made Vader that much more badass, and really needs to be canonized in the comics imo. Gives his character a lot more substance that his whole existence is a walking nightmare of pain, and yet he's always so stoic and composed.

[@Insoma]

Many people pointed this out, but he can lift stuff above his head. It just causes great pain.

[@Insoma]

@@PeachCrusher69 He literally says in his video, that due to his armor he can't lift his arms above his head. The armor is the limiting factor. It's like the batman costums which doesn't allow to turn the head.

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Sidious the immortal I thought not it’s not a story lucasfilm would tell you. It’s an Abrams legend, Darth Sidious was a dark lord of the sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the force to shoot lightning out of his hands, to hurt people he had such a knowledge of the force he could even shoot lightning out of his hands, What happened to him? He became so powerful that the only thing he became afraid of was Losing his power which eventually of course he did. Unfortunately he tried to kill his apprentices son, then his apprentice killed him. Oh yeah did I mention he was killed by a scavenger girl who swings her lightsaber like a baseball bat because of plot armor. Ironic he could shoot others with lightning but he zapped himself

@@jamesbizs Raise shoulders to 90 degrees (perpendicular to the ground) and then flex at the elbows to raise something above head height. I think the problem here is not so much in Vader's history as it is in the way this channel described it. He doesn't have full articulation so doing some fancy twirl thing with a lightsaber above your head just isn't going to happen because he doesn't have the range of motion.

The fact that his suit could have a lot more advanced, but Palpatine opted for a cluncky one just make the character a lot better. First that any other being on a tight suit with loud breathing, itching skin and rendered movement would go insane. If he was a Sith since the beginning probably he would loose his mind, but since he was a Jedi before he was trained to calm his mind. Second that again, rendered movement. He can't move his hands above his head if he wanted, his lightsaber is heavier to a point he needs to hands, he can't do flips or run, he can't do a lot of shit and HE STILL won almost every battle. The only ones to master him was Palpatine with force lighting in his vulnerable breathing system, Starkiller because he's fucking Kratos from SW universe and Master Luke, which he held back and legitemaly got scared when he raged after him.

Interesting thing about people who are incredibly intelligent, many of them experience sensory overload.

[@Tantalus010]

Yeah, I mean, if Vader can't sleep, he should be _a lot_ more unhinged than he is in the movies. Not only should he have anger issues, he should have immense difficulty in thinking or even focusing, which should also inhibit his ability to use the Force. He should hallucinate regularly, and as such, should frequently be seen talking to someone who isn't there. He'd be a wreck - a walking powder keg with immense power but pretty much no control - not the coherent, intelligent, completely in control villain that we see.

You forgot to mention that the suit was specifically designed by Palpietine to suppress Darth Vader's power to prevent Darth Vader from turning on him l. That was why the armor was made heavy and restricts mobility and speed. Every other aspect for comfort was designed to keep Darth Vader from noticing. Even the helmet itself is made to mess with his mind to make it harder for him to think and strategize. That's actually what makes him feel claustrophobic

If he’s lifting someone over his head, I imagine he’s a lot more anger driven than just using his lightsaber: which was a daily occurrence to him. It never said he was incapable of it, but that it was uncomfortable and difficult. There was no need to make himself struggle and be uncomfortable when there really was no need to.

Mike -_- nope it really isn’t difficult for Vader, even the wording he uses in the video says relates to this, the problem isn’t the weight really, just how it’s positioned on him, if two metal plates are literally pressing together, it’s hard to work around that either finding that one position where you can make it work, or literally forcing the plates to bend to allow you to, it’s range of motion rather then lacking the strength to do so, plus 25lbs is nothing for any force user, talking about people who can casually move multiple tons of debris

The poor guy, that suit didn’t even moisturize his skin. That’s important when you have skin as badly burnt as Vader’s because the pores in your skin produce oil that keeps your skin moist and pliable. Without those oils your skin will crack and in effect become chap.

My favorite fact about the suit is a small random factoid I think I saw in one of your earlier videos and that would be how Vader’s suit could provide nourishment and remove waste for him. My very young son saw this video, and he has some serious medical issues that revolve around this type of issue. He was absolutely floored that a badass like Vader could have problems like him and it never slowed him down. In a small way it helps him not feel so different at times and to be more confident. It is such a small thing thing - but it made a huge impact on a little boys confidence.
