Metalbending is a specialized sub-skill of earthbending that allows an earthbender to ferrokinetically bend processed metal in a similar fashion to bending regular earth. Long regarded an impossible feat, the technique was invented by Toph Beifong to escape from a metal cage in which she was captured and transported by Xin Fu and Master Yu. Since metal is merely earth that has been purified and refined, Toph used her seismic sense to perceive the trace amounts of "unpurified" crude earth still present in the metal, target it, and use it to bend the purified metal itself.

“I am the greatest Earthbender in the world, don’t you two dunderheads ever forget” Toph Beifong
By toph herself
In that moment, she became the first metal bender and one of the most important person after the war cuz only she can pass down that from generations to come
And she was right
Shiny Soldier who’s toph? I only know MELON LORD
@@peopleperson3420 oh yes her name isnt toph its melon lord muahahahahahaa
Toph discovering the metal bending will always be one of the best scene in the franchise
I'd say all the scenes are the best in the franchise.
“WOO! Toph, you rule!”
@@hadeshatespercyjacksonbuti4122 I'm a bit late to comment, but I agree; TOPH IS THE BEST!!! : )
I know right!
Yeah, it was pretty lit. Ironic of me saying that because it was quite dark in there.
She is indeed the most powerful earth bender of all time.
king bumi: im a joke to you ?
Not only did she metal but she also did sand bending too
JabBurdy Mosot king bumi*
@@cottonfloss7951 thanks for the help :/ here is a like
Imagina if Bolin can master metal bending.
Toph is and still will be the GREATEST EARTH BENDER.
PERIODT
Don't forget Bumi
Chriz But Bumi was years older than her image how strong she’ll be at his age
@@nathangomatos7812 she was old in Korra and she said it herself she isn't that strong as she was at a a young age
She would be over powered if she can see.
Toph: Invents metal bending to free herself from the bondage of oppression authority and the limitations of her own powers
Also Toph: Uses metal bending to put people in jail
Ultimate Power Move from Toph
A girl has to make money somehow
It was also mainly oit of spite. She got the idea after the line "Even you cant metalbend." Then boom. She did it.
Take that nerds.
True
wontbleedme ! Nah
Do you all remember when Korra asked Toph if she could remove the metal poison from her body? Toph mentioned how she could do it and that she feels that her girls never really picked up metal bending? Just how powerful of a metal bender did Toph become? Her girls were extremely proficient in the skill! Toph was a bending god!
She IS the inventor of the sub-art of Earthbending, and since she lost her sight she gained a new perception.
Cameron Sivret she didn't lose her sight. She was naturally born blind.
Cameron Sivret she didn’t lose her sight
Im surprised no one ever mentioned this. Also remember when toph was rescuing her family, when she metal bended that wall open and perfectly closed it with no marks or wrinkles.
Kevin Wilson If she was the avatar then Nono fire nation
Toph discovering metal bending might just be my favorite part of the entire series
William Smith naw prob sokka’s cactus juice
@@burneraccount.how is his favourite something else??
"Aang mastering waterbending in a few minutes"
Toph be like: haha try creating a new bending style in one might
Might?
night" sorry a typo
@@bluehank694 ok
It’s more like a new substance because metal bending looks a lot like earth bending
Imagine how overpowered aang would be if he knew about sub bindings like metal bending, lava bending, or even blood bending
He did discover energybending.
Bloodbending... op asf
You missed sand bending, energy bending
I mean he did come into contact with bloodbending in avatar, I guess he just thought it wasn't ethical
What's the sub bending of airbending?
It's all because of Melon Lord
Mwhahahahaha!
Indeed
Motherly katara
Along with the awesome accomplish with metalbending, we have mudbending, lavabending, sweat bending, sand bending and the lists goes on but I'm glad this show their more bending beside the four main elements
Imean... technically they aren't different types of bending, but just different ways to bend the four elements oop-
Sweat, sand and mud are just basic earth bending and water bending substances. Metal and lava in the other hand now that's impressive
Jake Fielder I feel like lava bending can only be unlocked if your parents are a fire and earth bender, which Bolin and probably Guzan is too, and that fire bending unknown avatar.
@@AzrealJ what about blood bending. pretty impressive
S.A. Nyx definitely, it was forbidden for a reason 😂
This happend in the Legend of Korra
Toph: *_Faster twinkle toes!_*
Aang: *_Im forty years old can you stop with the nicknames?_*
Lmao which episode? I just discovered about the legend of korra and just recently started watching it.
I don't mind spoilers, in fact I love them
Artificial Idiot where do you watch The Legend Of Korra?
Like I have been trying but couldn’t and I could give you some good spoilers if you like !
@@Angexcraft I know it's on Amazon prime videos but it's kinda expensive on there but you can also purchase it on youtube
Two Triz thanks!
She never actually said "faster twinkle toes"
Aang is probably the only Avatar that has been taught by great masters for his bending, Katara for me is a strong bender since she was able Blood-Blend in her age in such a short time, and Toph is no doubt the greatest Earth-Bender of All Time
Zuko and his uncle both taught Aang in some ways, but they aren't great Fire-Benders, although they're both good Fire-Bender(In terms of peaceful Mind), they were able to teach Aang how to block Lightning
As for Air-Bending, Aang was taught by he True Masters of Air-Benders, The Bad Ways(Trolling other masters with some good cakes) and The Good Ways(Spiritual)
Iroh not great? Have you been drinking watered down tea?!
Taught by the dragons = Not great?
Do you think a Earth/ Metalbender could fly or glide by incasing themselves in metal or earth or there boots and hands like magneto and his daughter Polaris?
Good question 🤔
Or by using 2 carts (like in BotW?)
Maybe all the elements can fly. A waterbender could freeze the water and sit on it and make it float. And fire ending could be used like a jetpack
@@kdupes4649 it is shown during Sozin's comet that fire benders can use their abilities to fly as Ozai did. I feel like it would have a to be a level of concentration tho due to that mostly being the affect that the comet had on fire benders. But by theory I feel any bender can control something around them to fly but it would take a lot of training and concentration
Leo Magneto can manipulate electromagnetism and thats why he can fl. Earthbenders dont do this
Earth bending is the most versatile and probably the strongest overall.
Not completely as others do have powers that Earth Bending could not accomplish
Such as controlling a completely different individual
I agree with Wilian. Avatar extras said that air bending was the most versatile form of bending...and that came from the creators of the show! And don't forget that it took the entire Red Lotus to take down one air bending master. I pick Tenzen in a fair fight against any of em.
Wilian Rodrigues I know this is a stretch buuuuuut there is iron in people’s blood stream not enough to fully move it like water but maybe causing clots and making opponent’s unconscious
Wilian Rodrigues they could probably bone bend
@@themcflurryman2525 I thought Iron from ores and Iron from blood are two different pancakes?
Toph deserves her own spin off series!!!!
Nahh
bye yesss
Yess
Nah
Mark Joseph Bacho yes
And to think that she was only 12-13 when she invented metal bending (what the great king bumi couldn’t possibly do) makes me terrified of her power during her prime/peak
I wonder if they could ever blood bend since there’s iron in blood
"YOUR ONLY LIMITATION IS YOUR IMAGINATION" They can stop metal-related poisons by bending the metal from someone's body so I can't see why not.. there's a lot of theories that if the Avatar gets strong enough they can even bend the water in the air, and the energy flowing through the entire planet through the air to stop time (by cartoon logic, of course).
Metal bending was only possible because there are earth materials contained in it, i highly doubt there are rocks in blood iron
Luis Gabriel Silva kidney stones
@@quanyuan6760 kidney bending, more painfull than blood bending l
Earthbenders can't bend pure iron since metalbending is literally just bending the earth in impure metal. So no, they can't bend the iron in anyone's blood.
HOWEVER, having earth enter your bloodstream is deadly and will most likely kill you. That'd be a deadly technique to have at an Earthbenders disposal.
imagine if someone make guns and some metal bender stop it
*MATRIX*
I don’t think the gun would even shoot hahahaha she could disassemble tanks then tiny guns would be child’s play
LMFAO
They could refine metal in some way until the key components of earth can only be found in minute percentages wherein it would be hard to metal bend it. A pure metal without earthly elements or does have one but with little components of earth might exist if the writers wished.
Sounds like Magneto to me
semp224 it actually did exist, the writers did include it. In legend of korra it was shown that metal benders were unable to bend highly refined metals like platinum. That’s why when asami’s dad built the mecha suits for the equalists, he made them from platinum which was impervious to metalbending. And when red lotus captured korra, the put her in platinum cuffs which she couldn’t bend
Bumi: I am the greatest earthbender you will ever see
Toph: hold my rocks
Make a video if what would toph’s life be if she was never blind
I think she may not be as powerful as she is when she's blind,
Toph would be a very mediocre earth bender if she wasnt blind. Her loss of sight enabled her to feel and understand the earth more than other earth benders
@@pepemiko Agreed. Toph being blind prompted her to learn seismic sense. It made her more aware of her surroundings, and made her discover metal bending.
@@MrPogee also she might not have found the original earth benders
Had she not been blind, then no metal bending. Her being blind was what helped her realize there is fine pieces earth in metal. She wouldn’t have been put in the situation to figure it out & wouldn’t have that extra sense to see without vision
"Toph you rule!" ~Toph Beifong, The Guru, episode 219 (i think)
I love Zaofu. Just seeing how metalbending could be used for art and self-expression was a breath of fresh air from its use in the Republic City police force. I wish we got to see more of Zaofu.
Honestly Zaofu is my favorite place in the avatar world, such astonishing architecture and beauty
Toph knows Earth, Sand, AND Metal she’s the best!
And in addition to demonstrating knowledge through lavabending
dang It was made today nice job Makin this i needed it
"Have i ever mentioned how sweet it's that you invented metal bending?"
Toph is my favorite of all time, she’s an extremely powerful women and earth bender, she’s also sm I can relate with (personality wise). Kyoshi is a very close second.
Next video should be The History of Healing, Flight, Lightning Redirect, Spirit Bending (although that's part of Healing), and Combustionbending. I think there should also be plant and sandbending even thou those aren't Specialized Bending Techniques aka sub-skills
now this is the video we've all been waiting for
I think metalbending and lavabending are 2 opposite subskills of Earthbending, like if metalbenders have seismic sense, then they can sense the earth inside in the metal to bend it, but in lavabending, the seismic sense will not work since it was liquified hot lava..
Like Metalbenders cant lavabend
Bolin, a lavabender cant bend metal
Did yall get me?!!
Can bend liquid metal inside someone’s body “ That sounds like blood bending with extra steps “
Imagine if Aang learned metalbending and bloodbending
Imagine using blood bending during avatar state
@@eviscerator8938 it would be so gruesome omg
Imagine if the other members of the gaang were the avatar
blind avatar toph who has the potential to bend all elements while blind? She’d slay everything
t ø p h kyoshi would be proud
Next video: the history of aang twinkle toes
The metal bending technique Toph ussed in Atla is so primitive and underdeveloped that she has to physically grab on to the metal most of the time. It’s a really nice detail that I like.
In tlok, u can see many different styles of metal bending employed by many characters. We have Lin’s and the republic city’s police force’s style that utilizes hook devices. We also have Kuvira’s style that involve bending the metal sheets on her armor.
Remember when Toph busted down a metal door in a Fire Nation War balloon and fell into it while it was on the floor then bend it into her armour and use the armour to beat down fire nation soldiers. That Scene was so dope
How about we get combustion bending?
Thank u
Joannes Reyes thanks. I never understood combustion bending in the series. I always thought the dude just had a third eye.
@@avatarkorra2971 the third eye is a tattoo, I guess
They cld be snipers. Missile threat level
I think lightning bending is pretty good
I feel like Toph could learn blood bending as well due to having iron in our blood. Similar to what Magneto would do.
But the bending of the metal consists of dominating the pieces of earth inside it, the iron in our blood is too pure
Toph is my *favorite* character from both Korra and Last Airbender. Her personality and overall character development makes her the best.
Yay i love your videos but i love ur avatar videos the most keep up the good work ly❤️❤️
I just love metalbending Toph is the best earthbending ever and my favorite earthbending
Lets be honest mai is the most loyal female to ever live and she is lowkey bad.
bro yessss. i low key think she’s fire
Fr she hella fine too
Hardly bad, just much more quiet, and it didn’t help that Azula fed her friends worst impulses.
and then people ignore her and ship zutara 🤧🤧
* mmujie* I don’t ship
This is why i love this channel its so short but still i understand what he means
Thank you for great content as always!
Nice!
Toph is my favourite melon lord
Metal bending is my favorite type of bending from the Avatar universe. Great video!
I'm gonna say it again
Thanks Amagi soooooooooooooooooo much for uploading Atla videos!!!
The histories of all types of bending when? Like their origins and stuff
remember when Toph is the first one to discover metal bending but then in LOK there's a whole squadron of metal benders?
She did built a metalbending academy in the comics.
Even then she's stronger then the entire police forces.
And she claims that her fighting fights are over
She didn't discover metalbending, everyone already knew what metal bending was before she invented it.
@@daniellaokeke2052 she was the first metalbender
Thanks for the vid I love metal bending
if I was a Earth Bender I would use mud and mercury a lot to replicate a lot of the more fluid styles of bending that is normally exclusive to waterbending.
Indeed a Melod Lord
Can we get a history of lava bending
He did already
Already made.
Toph is unbelievably powerful. Imagine the beding knowledge in her old age, she created fluid movements in the earth without even moving and letting the earth move her as if she was bending with her mind not her limbs. Then the time they infiltrated kuvira's base, toph made a seemingly noticable damaged entrance then closed it up fully without a mark. I wonder if she managed to bend platinum or even take a mountain and moved it for the sake of landscaping, and I wonder if she ever made earthquakes for the sake of pranks.
Seeing that metal TOph statue always brings me to tears...
Yo, I didn't even realize that Toph's metal bending is literally improving throughout the series.
There's one more e lament that hasn't been shown by air bender SOUND bending!
What is that real?
King Sujay yes Tenzin used it to make his horn much louder to wake up the airbenders
And when Aang used it to amplify the bison whistle in Ba Sing Se
I'd like to imagine that bending isn't simply limited to the those elements, but rather the state of matter, solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Would be a cool concept for the future when the people discover more with science.
I love the thumbnail
whos here after atla released on netflix :D
Is this true??
In the Uk and most other countries it was out one Netflix ages ago; it’s only the US that got it recently
Early but what does it matter my comment will be moved
Your Damn Right I enjoyed the video
1:38 We don't really know if Toph came to that realization and she certainly did not meditate until she felt the trace amounts of earth. All of that info came from the segment with guru Pathic when he was explaining those concepts while guiding Aang with his meditation and avatar state training.
During her captivity, Toph was just being stubborn as we know she was and didn't give up. Eventually, she sensed the trace amounts of earth in the metal, like it was said in the first part of the video here.
Who was Korra's Earthbending teacher?
toph i’m pretty sure
She didn't really need to be "taught" since she mastered all the elements at a young age, aside from air bending.
@@allenwright123 she was taught during 12 years she starts her training at 4 years old until she mastered them.
“Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.”
Psalms 37:3
Awesome video
Toph: “hey guys look I escape an inescapable cage”
the literal police force: hippity hoppity, this is now our property.
Toph:So if I can seclude the earth in these I can shape it to let myself out
Also toph:
Haha metal go brr
Cool how water bending influenced subsets of other bending like bending mercury or redirecting lightning
Can you talk about tattoos and how they are placed where the chakras and chi paths are like combustion and air tattoos.
We've all heard of Toph changing metal, but have you heard about a metal changing Toph?
It's called Iroh.
Toph is such a badass, she invented a sub skill for earth bending which would lead to thousands of people praising her as the greatest earthbender in history just because she didn’t want to be in a box anymore.
Nice video
And also, the history of lava bending. That would be very interesting. 🙂
I think as an avatar community we all need to pull together like the 4 nations at the end of the war. I think we need a new avatar animated series of some kind. Let’s start a petition and get thousands to sign. Please talk about this, help the community.
I love Toph so much
Without her Blindness there is no Metal bending
No mention of Kuvira? I'm honestly surprised, since she commanded a giant mech. True, there were other people but they seemed to be just diagnostics or some form of control, with kuvira as a pilot
I was wishing for this xD
Have you done a video on sand bending? It'll probably a short one but still!
She just keep sense and unlocked her new one Metalbending.
Watching this video I’ve come to the conclusion that every elemental bend has a cool uniqueness to it that’s different from what the basic is.
Water can blood bend.
Earth can metal bend.
Fire can lightning bend.
But ya know, maybe I should watch LoK, but I can’t remember a special instance in which anything other than air can be bent my airbenders.
Good job
I love how the more refined Metalbending Legend of Korra uses movements more akin to Waterbending than Earthbending.
Toph is such a badass that she literally just created a new form of bending without even breaking a sweat
Do the history of flight, I'd like to see that
Could both a water bender and a metal bender, bend any type of liquid metal?
Just for all you nerds| The Substyles of the Avatar Elements:
Waterbending🌊- Bloodbending, Healing, Sweatbending, Mudbending, Plant bending?
Firebending🔥- Lighting bending? Lava bending, Sparky Sparky Boom Bending.
Earthbending⛰- Metalbending, Mudbending, Sandbending.
Airbending🌪- *coughs*
Oh and energy bending, dont know where that one goes though.
Cough u aren't supposed to say that these days
Actually, lavabending is for earthbenders, not fire.
Please do the history of earth bending if you haven't already
What about sand bending? She learned how to sand bend in the last of the few episodes
Her inventing metal bending really changed the war and the world
Can you do sand bending next
I think there were metal benders before toph because I think aang had mentioned that he wished he had a metal bender in the episode where the fire nation drilled ba sing se and the dai lee used metal bending I think unless the chains were made of rock
i feel like earth bending and water bending are the most op moves. Im pretty sure in water bending you can manipulate all 3 forms of water: solid , liquid and gas meaning that it could theoretically mimic earth bending and airbending. Kind of the same case with earth bending. Earth benders can already earth bend and bend mercury which is kind of like water bending. They probably could maybe possibly earth bend fine soil or powdered metal or something like that to also mimic air bending.
Sandbending does mimic airbending tho
Thank You Toph
I have always thought that platinum was a bit silly and made metalbending not nearly as impressive for a few reasons.
1: Metalbending is very difficult in the last airbender. Toph can only metalbend by physically contacting the metal.
2: Metalbenders can apparently bend gold, a metal in the platinum metal group.
3: Metalbending is shown to only be possible due to impurities in the metal. This can be explained in two ways:
3a: The Imperial Fire Nations metal was inferior and contained large amounts of slag (unlikely)
3b: Steel contains carbon woven into the structure, earthbenders can bend coal perfectly fine.
It would be more interesting to me if only steel was able to be metalbent. This information might not be widespread information either, making people think metalbending works on ALL metals.
3:26 in this scene, she didn't see, she heard that they were suspicious, so we're not sure if she can see through metal
The gear use by those metal bending police is similar to the odm gear of the surver corps minus the swords
