[@ryanthompson1244]

Also, there are three currencies in the Wizarding world: Gallions, Sickles and Knuts. Just a thought. Nice job on the video.

[@jamesthebluecat1263]

HEY! I’M NUMBER 3!

[@elizabethcallan10]

I’m like number 670, I got a 7. I also got 13 and 4 so also technically a 3. Numerology wise tho I’m number 11 and my fav n lucky number is 10.

Bruh@@DJKE616 almost every name has 3 initials

[@jollibeemcdo8541]

There's also 3 main wand core that Ollivander use in his wand that he sells and all 3 of it (dragon heartstring, unicorn hair, phoenix feather) is the core of the wands of golden trio, and also there's 3 magical blood (that can do magic) pure blood, half blood, and muggleborn. This 3 blood is also the blood of the golden trio. (Sorry for my grammar)

[@lethemkno3079]

WAIT HOW? THE GOLDEN trio isn't comprised of the 3 bloodlines,both Ron and Harry are purebloods and Hermoine is a muggleborn.

[@aarkansinghal6633]

well the weasleys are a pure-blood family but they are regarded as blood traitors. So they no longer count as pure-blood. also, a theory that I have thought of is that magic could be genetic. Like muggleborns might have a witch or wizard in their family lineage. For example, Hermione Granger was muggle born, but there was a time where Slughorn thought she was related to some wizard named Hector Dagworth-Granger, who invented some kind of famous spell. While the character was only mentioned once so he and Hermione have no relation, maybe he could have been a distant ancestor. Again, this is probably not true, just a thought.

[@Starnight_Sky]

Harry’s mom is a muggleborn, so, he’s actually half-blood!@@lethemkno3079

[@georgiapaylor6528]

Harry is a half blood (Mother lily is a muggle, whereas Dad James is a pure blood), same as both Voldemort (muggle dad, witch mam) and Snape (not sure on heritage but he is the half blood prince)

[@MrSimpleton]

@@lethemkno3079 Harry's mum is literally a muggleborn, thats the entire reason Harry lived with Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon.

[@movies798]

I think it counts that three mother's save Harry's life from Voldemort. His own mother because the power of love, his aunt Petunia because she shares her sister's blood thus having a protection spell until his 17th year, and Draco Malfoy's mom who lie to Voldemort after finding out her son was still alive.

I think this all connects with in real life religions and in mythology. Like in Greek mythology, there’s three brothers, Zeus, Poseidon, an Hades. Like the brothers, there’s three sisters. Three realms, the heavens, earth, and the underworld. And how the Trojan war began was Paris choosing one of three goddesses who was the most beautiful. Hera, Athena and Aphrodite. So the number 3 shows up a lot in mythology and in religion.

[@yensen3915]

Surprised you didn't mention Molly and her two brothers.

[@LazyOldFusspot_3428]

And the first 3 engines to work on the NWR on Sodor

[@danielpotapczuk2155]

Amazing how often you found the number 3. Normally I think of the number 7 in Harry Potter, so I never realized how often the 3 appears. However I can think of five more examples: 1. There are three Grangers 2. When Harry first meets Ron he says he wished to have three wizard brothers 3. Three of the four Hogwarts relicts were turned into horcruxes 4. When Hagrid showed his class some Thestrals there were three students that could see them (Harry, Luna and Neville) 5. The Knight Bus is a Tripple Decker

[@Harry_PotterIsMyLife]

he mentioned number 5 but the others are very good! :)

[@patrickdematosribeiro1845]

I agree that the punishement Dumbledore's father got is harsh IF you know why he attacked the boys. But he never revealed why he killed them because he didn't want Ariana to be locked up. So his accusers probably assumed he did it simply because he hated muggles. Considering this the punishment makes sense.

There's also a couple in the final battle: Ernie McMillan, Luna Lovegood, and Seamus Finnigan all cast Patronuses to ward off dementors who are swarming the golden trio; Slughorn, McGonagall, and Kingsley Shacklebolt are all fighting Voldemort before Harry arrives; before Molly going up to fight (and kill) Bellatrix she was duelling Luna, Ginny, and Hermione. Oh, and another one, is that there were three Gryffidor girls in Harry's year, Lavender, Parvati, and Hermione, though the friend group was Lavender, Parvati, and Padma. And one more, there are three different balls in quidditch: a quaffle, bludgers, and a golden snitch

Great video. I think it should also be noted that the rule of 3 is a very common writing technique which can be conscious and unconscious. Seven is an extension of the rule of 3 as 6 is an even number and so in writing is uncomfortable as there is no northern point. e.g. if a scene has 6 people, there is no central character whereas in a 3, 5 or 7 the main character is flanked by equal numbers on each side.

In all fairness, 3 and 7 show up in a lot of places across mythology and fiction in general. Anyways, a few more 3s: Hogwarts is divided into 3 of what I believe would be called forms in Muggle British schooling: Beginner: Years 1-2, everyone takes te 7 core classes. Middle: Years 3-5: Everyone continues taking the core classes and adds 2-3 electives. Concludes with the OWL exams. Advanced: Years 6-7: Students can drop core classes if they want to and may drop their electives. Concludes with the NEWT exams. Also, Harry had 3 Good DADA teachers(LUpin, Fake Moody, and Snape) and 3 bad DADA instructors(Quirrel, Lockhart, and Umbitch) Dumbledore had three middle names and held three positions of authority. three of the Horcruxes where destroyed with Gryffindor's sword(The Locket, the Ring, and Nagini). Three of the Book titles reference powerful magical artifacts(Philosopher's Stone, Goblet of Fire, and Deathly Hallows). There are three main classes of offensive spell: Jinx, Hex, and Curse. More Trios: Three Weasley brothers Harry was close to(Ron, Fred, and George), 3 Weasley Brothers he had looser ties too(Bill, Charlie, and Percy), 3 Prewett Siblings(Molly, Fabeian and Giddeon), 3 significant Half-Bloods with miserable childhoods(Harry, Tom, and Snape), 3 Gryffindor Girls in Harry's year that are mentioned regularly(Hermione, Lavender, and Parvati). There are 3 types of coin used by Wizards: Knuts, Sickles, and Galleons. Harry has had 3 adventures involving Dragons: Norberta, THe First Task, and the Gringotts Heist. Each Hogwarts house has 3 prefects of each sex at any given time. There are 3 standard pets allowed at Hogwarts: Owls, Toads, and Cats. Three of the Heads of House during Harry's time at Hogwarts have Alliterative names. And while another commenter mentioned a few characters with 3-part names, I don't think that really counts since 3-part names are the norm in the English speaking world... Though, Harry Potter is rather unusual in just how many of its characters have known middle names when so many other works of fiction will only give use a afirst and last name for characters who can, by naming norms of the real world culture the setting is embedded within, be assumed to have middle names... and with how some works don't even give us character's last names or give us last names but then leave characters' parents unnamed or similar.

Because the number 3 is so ingrained in Christian iconography ( father , son, Holy Ghost) it is why used so much in English literature. Jk intentional tried to avoid it but it is very hard as it is the default grouping un·con·sciously

Harry Potter and the prizoner of Azkaban, book 3, was the only book where Voldemort wasn't present.

Ofcourse there are many of 3s. It's one of the faritails number. Besides 7, no.3 is the most common. Good job of numbering the n.3s.

[@benfrancisabi4355]

Impressive like everytime morgan

[@nielstielemans7913]

Here's another interesting one: by the end of the story, Harry has had ownership of 3 different wands. So has Voldemort for that matter

Voldemort asks Lily to step aside three times

These videos are so well put together just as usual, congrats dude!

I'm still very impressed with your work and I do hope when I copy and pasted my "Life of" story based around your narrative style that you were flatter. Again, I'm so impressed with your work I couldn't think of anyone else who do them if they're real. And I'm able to pick up narrtives really easy. As for three? I think Dobby tried three times in the second book to save harry before being set free. At the dursley, platform 9/3 and the bludger. He did those three before he was set free. And in the third book Harry meets his father three friends in the same year. SInce no one knew Scabbers was Wormtail it doesn't count till he's forced to become human again.

Now if you could find a way to explain the obsession with socks and the color purple in the books that would be great. I did a search and socks are named something like 40 times in the books. It may not be that high but it’s high. And she uses purple to describe many thing. Or shades of it like lilac or lavender. It is very prevalent and more so than one of the two colors wizards usually wear in public. Check it out I checked socks are mentioned 76 times thru the 7 books. That’s more than 10 times per book on average!

Purple is associated with magic/mystery. So in a world of wizards it would be a popular colour.

[@anonymous1burger]

76= 4 +72, 4 houses and 72 very divisible by 3

[@occheermommy]

@@Markus2E5I6 yeah and I get that but it is in there a lot!!!! And the socks thing is so weird to me

[@thatweirdo150]

Three Trials of the Triwizard Tournament, three triwizard champions, three of the champions that are uncorrupted in the 4th book, and three types of wizard currency. By the way, that’s a sick Phillies outfit dude!

MovieFlame, With this much knowledge about HP and the fact that you have read the books 100s of time and watched the movies and analysed every second of them, could you reach to WB and help them in the HP TV series, probably impossible but worth a try?
