IMO he is one of the most underrated characters. He helped Dumbledores Army defeat voldemort. Without him Harry surely would have died

Yes💯👏👏👏

As odd as it may sound, it was a good thing Mundungus emptied Grimmauld Place because he then sold the mirror to Abe which saved Harry's life. One of the great things in Harry Potter are the unintentional actions which end up significant in the end.

[@xPadge112x]

@@emankcin1701 Aberforth did seem quite prepared for it all though. I wonder once Dumbledore tried on the ring did he ever use his borrowed time to reconcile in a way with Aberforth but also roping him in a suttle way to assist him when the time came. I'd of loved to of read or seen that.

[@emankcin1701]

@@xPadge112x In my view it sounds entirely plausible that Albus might have wanted Abe to acquire the mirror. And I agree, he probably spent a little bit more time in the Hog's Head that he would have normally done during the events of 6th book.

without many characters Harry would have die

[@aquamarin4851]

What I always found funny about him was his different approach towards Harry and Ginny. To Harry, of age and just escaped Gringotts on a dragon: „It'll never be safe for you here, Potter, he wants you too badly. So go abroad, go into hiding, save yourself. Best take these two with you.“ To Ginny, under age fighting in the battle: "Good girl!"

I always wanted to know a little more about Aberforth. I didn’t really understand him much. I knew some of his story but this was nice to watch. Thanks!

[@ninclow5421]

I always got the sense that Aberforth, knowing Albus the way he did, took up residence in Hogsmeade specifically to keep an eye on Albus so he could take him down a peg or two if he showed any signs of falling for the allure of power again.

[@emankcin1701]

Moral of the story, I think, is that no-one is completely good or evil. Aberforth certainly was a better man than Albus in their youth.

[@giannagarda7598]

Aberforth is shown in the last HP movie fighting dementors with a patronous of no specific form - it should be a goat, although the book does not mention any patronous at that point, but before, to confuse Voldy's men at Hogsmead and protect Harry, Hermione and Ron. But seeing Aberforth fighting in the Hogwarts battle was great - he is a true Dumbledore!!!

[@Dimitris_1987]

Abertfoth clearly argues with the Death Eaters at the Deathly Hallows book that they confused his goat patronus with a stag.

[@ussspec8]

Aberforth is Very Underrated definitely Top5 Most Powerful Wizards in the Series

[@bradameerbeg2154]

I just wish they hadn’t waited so long to do more movies. My mum was a huge fan, and passed away in 2013.

[@sailorbychoice1]

7:20 I have decided to believe that Aberforth fell in love with a maledictus who had taken the form of a goat decades before in their youth together. I chose to believe the spells he was attempting were misconstrued to be of an illicit nature; but were in fact his attempt to change her back into the woman/witch he loved. Being a maledictus, and not a _True Goat,_ she has aged at the human/witch rate rather than that of a natural goat's life span of between one to two decades, at best.

[@barbiquearea]

By "The Entire Life of Aberforth Dumbledore (1884 - 2022)", do you mean to say that Aberforth died this year? Because that's what I took out of it.

[@kellysouter4381]

Suggestions The elder wand is the most powerful wand in history Nobody could defeat it’s true master Then how can so many wizards beat the previous master so easily?

[@elineroebersfan]

Suggestions: What would your boggart be if you feared nothing? Can riddikulus be used on other creatures? Can a patronus block the killing curse? Why can’t muggles see dementors? What would your hogwarts house be if you were equally qualified for 2 or more houses?

[@marcushendriksen8415]

The answer to every single one of those have already been stated somewhere or can be easily deduced. A boggart's whole point of existence is to frighten things; a truly fearless person wouldn't even register to them. They'd just remain in whatever indeterminate state they usually maintain, unless there was someone else with the fearless person, which is whose fear they'd transform into. Riddikulus was invented specifically for manipulating boggarts to adopt funnier forms. So no, probably not. (there's actually a deeper answer why I think that, but trust me, it's long) Only material objects can block the killing curse, as demonstrated on many occasions. They might refer to mature Patronuses as being corporeal in the books, but they aren't solid and can't take an avada kedavra for you Same reason Muggles can't see almost anything else magical, either: because they don't have any magic of their own Remember the lesson from the Philosopher's Stone? It doesn't matter where the Hat thinks you should be, the important thing is where you want to end up. In that situation, which is called a Hatstall btw, the subject can just make their own choice to break the tie (it literally wouldn't even have to be one of the two options lol)

Can't they just erase her memory of the event where the muggles attacked her? Then simply tell her she got in an accident and partially lost her memory. Then train her in magic again?

[@grokeffer6226]

If I had to venture a guess about Aberforth and goats, I'd guess that maybe he'd transfigured a goat into an upright, human-like creature that could pass for an odd-looking person. It seems like this would be something that might be illegal. That's not canon, but it would sort of make sense. And would be preferable to other, less appropriate ideas. 😵‍💫

[@juliie007]

According to secrets of Dumbledore, Aberforth was a teen dad and may have likely been still enrolled at Hogwarts making him likely 16 at the time. It seems like teen pregnancy just like in the Muggle world is frowned upon that his lover had to sent to the US with little Credence. It must very heartbreaking ❤️‍🩹 for the Dumbledore family especially Aberforth who genuinely loved being the caregiver of the family.

[@TylerHolt-hh5cf]

Why didn't he just take a voyage once he graduated? See it as a blessing, in dusguise? As painful as it might be, he could have used the time he would normally spend with his beloved, to further his education,and hone his skills, just a bit more. Then go to America, swoop her and his child off their feet, and apparate away.

Your video title is a bit misleading, why you mention Aberforth's date of year, if he lives until 2022, he would have died at 138 years old (At most in real life for one is 122 years old). There's no mention on how long he lived on and when he passed away.

[@eranshachar9954]

Great video first of all man. I understand why Aberforth helped Albus. He was a logical man, he knew to separate between hatred to his brother, to the fact that his own blood still needs him, and that the threat from Voldemort is more important to address. I have a video offer- "The life of Antonin Dolohov, the most powerful Death Eater in existence." And when I say this, I know Severus was stronger, but Severus was in fact on the good side. And Dolohov is much stronger than Bellatrix, because he is much older, he had more time to gain power and knowledge, that's why my statement is, that he was much better than her.

So aberforth has issues with his brother because he neglected his family and sick sister because he was too ambitioush, and blames him for her death because of it At the same time he abandoned his own son God I hate the new movies

[@Mcherri]

The thing with Ariana was an accident Grindelwald was going to kill aberforth because he was on to him then albus stepped in to stop it then it engaged to a 3 way duel but one spell must’ve deflected and hit Ariana as she was coming downstairs it killed her however no one knew who actually killed her if it was Grindelwald, albus or aberforth. I’m not saying albus was completely innocent we know he wasn’t but that was an accident.

Why does every smegger, including Brits now apparently, keep referring to "graduating from Hogwarts"?!?! This school is not American and Rowling does not use this word ONCE! We finish our education. We leave school. We do not graduate.

[@doctor_gibbo1392]

She's said in interviews that they do have a graduation ceremony but she didn't want to include it in the book: "J. K. Rowling: "Do you know, John, I'm really glad you asked that, because I felt a huge sadness that I wouldn't write a graduation scene. […] I really, during the final book, kept thinking it would've been - it felt sad that the book wasn't going to end with that feast scene, the graduation scene, but it couldn't, it just couldn't. That's not the way it could've ended. It would've felt far too trite, and a lot of people felt the epilogue was too sentimental. I think to have a graduation scene on top of what just happened would've been absurd anticlimax.""

[@theradgegadgie6352]

@@doctor_gibbo1392 That interviewer was American and used the word first. Rowling was just repeating back to him language he would be familiar with. I'll repeat, the concept of "graduation" is never mentioned once in the novels and is alien to British schools entirely. The ceremony Rowling alludes to mainly involves sailing back across the lake from the castle. There is no graduation component of it. It is simply a leaving ceremony; a not uncommon thing.

It's not just an American thing, remember our Universities predate theirs by several hundreds of years and are far superior generally so if anything they copied graduation off us like they nicked everything else.
