#LordoftheRingsLore #MostPowerfulMen #TheStrongestMen - Розваги
If Hurin had been alive in the War of the Ring, he would have walked right into Mordor.
One does not simply walk into Mordor.
He’d have pissed on baradur and mooned Sauron
@@CalTN unless you are a hobbit as a couple of them simply just walked into to Mordor.
Hahaha... I believe you all have siezed his mighty will. I agree that he would not fear Mordor and could find a way into it. For he was so powerful that Morgoth's first intent was to make him a capitan of his own armies. And though cursed after mocking the enemy, he did not feel fear and was not intimidated.
@@CalTN he would have simply walked into mordor and screamed day will come again as he slayed every orc in his path
This was great, we definitely need a part two with Elendil in there, his deeds are just too great to ignore. He led The Faithful in their escape of the destruction of Numenor, founded Arnor, had the high rule of both Arnor and Gondor, drove Sauron's armies back into Mordor, seiged Barad-Dur for seven years and then finally threw down a ring-bearing Sauron in hand to hand combat along with Gil-Galad at the cost of his own life, ensuring the survival of all The Free Peoples. The all-time greatest King of Men in my opinion.
I'm really surprised you left Elendil off this list. It was he together with Gil-Galad who took down Sauron; Isildur just took the ring afterwards. Isildur is certainly formidable in his own right but I definitely choose Elendil over him.
I agree. Isildur without the Ring is not as powerful as his father was.
Yes…but he did have the ring..
Dont y’all think that settles the debate?
@@mccalltrader
Using the ring to show power is kind of cheating, don't you think? In that case, all the Nazguls were among the most powerful men before they became Ringwraiths, especially the Witch King and Kamul.
Elendil most definitely should have been on the list! Were talking about a guy that stood almost 8 feet tall.
@@Enerdhil It isnt cheating, Unless you think that having sharper sword, because you sharpen it before battle, is a cheating too.
Beren is the pound for pound King of Men.
His greatest accomplishment: the love of Luthien.
In reality he would feel like he was punching above his weight.
Lol not to mention he kicked celegorm's ass
@@dagnirglaurunga1620 absolutely! Very well remembered. And I must agree with @Estel right above, for from Celegorm was just a part, the man pulled a silmaril from the enemy's crown and came back to deliver it to Thingol's feet, shutting him up and making him swallow his arrogance (another impossible mission) over Men.
Aragorn - For all the feats he achieved.
Elendil - Faced Sauron with Gil-galad and won.
Beren - Yeah Luthien was the main power, but got a Silmarill which so many people eleves tried and failed to do.
Turin - No explanation needed
Hurin - Chosen by Tolkien himself.
In part 2 men as Boromir the 1st, Eorl the Young, Earnur, Aldarion the Mariner would be ideal to be presented
My top 5:
1. Hurin
2. Turin
3. Tuor
4. Aragorn
5. The man who would become the Witch-king
Beren?
Helm??? Elendil??
blud has aragorn second to fucking tuor ☠️ aragorn isnt even in the top 50 most powerful men to have ever lived lmao.
Hurin
Turin
Tuor
Pharazon
Elendil
The black sword, Turin Turambar is my favourite. Such a great story, doesn't get old.
Children of Hurin is my favorite book
I love Tolkien channels like this one, In Deep Geek, Nerd of the Rings, and Men of the West. If you like these check out Darth Gandalf. It’s on par with these but only has 6000 subs or so. Let’s muster an army and ride to his aid.
Túrin Turambar, HANDS DOWN, my favorite of the race of Men. Probably will *never* change.
Haven’t read up of Helm Hammerhand yet, but his character is very interesting.
Turin's story is the most epic, and most tragic of Tolkien's male characters.
Thanks @Anna Anisa for choosing me 😍
hi in one of his lost or expanded books i recall that the valar took the spirits of turin and nienor and bathed them in some fountain of fire , healing their spirits and transforming them to gods . forget which one but i can probably find it if you wish.
Part 2 for sure! My top 3 are Aragorn, Helm Hammerhand, and Elendil. The image of Elendil and Gil-Galad bringing down Sauron is too epic to ignore.
Hurin was a beast.
He was truly intimidating.
The moment he met his wife Morwen Eledhwen at their children’s grave was so sad, I cried…
You have to do part 2 of this tophic!! Jake another great video, there are so many badass and powerfull men in all of legendarium.
My list is: 1. Aragorn (in my opinnion he is the most powerfull, but for many theological reasons) 2. Turin
3. Helm Hammerhand I mean he's name tells you everyghing 4. Hurin same reasons that you have mentioned 5. Prince Imrahil - I mean I just love that character so much so he has to be on my list!!!!!
Great video, cant wait for the live stresm!!!
That's a tight list. I'd almost forgotten about Imrahil. He was a formidable warrior.
Criminally underplayed Beren's accomplishments. He definitely warrants his own video. The man survived imprisonment by Sauron and cut a Silmaril from Morgoth's crown for Eru's sake!
This video was a joke, Beren killed Celegorm, kicked Curufin's ass, Morgoth put a price to his head, avenged Thingol's death, etc, etc, etc. His deeds were waaaay above all other Men.
Awesome to hear about these. Love each video you drop!
A part 2 is definitely needed.
I'm probably alone on this, but if I made a part 2, I would include Boromir and his brother Faramir. Of all able men, it was Boromir that was chosen to join the fellowship. He was a fierce warrior, enough that even the uruks regarded him as a foe to be feared. Before his unfortunate death, he was able to overcome his own weakness and withstand the lure of the one ring after a brief slip, which he realized was caused by the ring's power. This is a feat which many before him lacked the inner strength and will power to do. Moving on to his younger brother Faramir, who was a fine warrior in his own right, but was also very sensitive and studious, a combination which is not easy to wield in life. He is able to become a great captain and leader of men, and gains the admiration of Gandalf at a young age. He too was able to withstand the evil allure of the ring, even more so than his older brother. All this, despite his father constantly and openly favoring Boromir and being an all around jerk to him, which is also quite a feat in life that I am sure anyone with a dickhead for a father can attest to. He also lived to be extremely old, living a life 3x as long as his older brother.
Please make your list. I would include Boromir and Faramir too.
nah
My usual quibble with your use of "power", which usually refers to personal combat efficiency, rather than the ability to influence the world according to your will and wish aside, I like this list.
Good job.
Estoy de acuerdo con tu quibble.
Love these channels I've got the audible LOTR now and I'm on the return of the king amazing books and I appreciate the movies even more and how much they stay to the story that explains the 3.5 hour movies lol
Great video! I'd love to see a part two. I think I'd like to see a Most Powerful Women video first though. Just my personal opinion 😁
Yes. A part 2. Good video.
Faramir, Bard, Elendil, Beren and King Theoden. I think you should do a part 2 of the Men segment. I'd like to hear who you have left out of part 1.
Also boromir,halbarad,erkanbrand and imrahil
Would love to see a part 2...
Of the top 5 of middle earth I can only think of 1 lad... Boromir. But that's just my bias. Thanks for the vid, it was immensely entertaining and confusing as heck as all Tolkien lore is.
While still a fan of him in the books, I confess my bias for Boromir has much to do with Sean Bean; one of my favourite actors, who was masterful in the role. My Mum thought Sean Bean should have been cast as Aragorn, to which I replied, "Yeah, but then they'd have to rewrite the story so Aragorn dies!" 😄
He'd be on my list too.
It's worth noting that in Lord of the Rings oaths hold great meaning and not sticking to them carries equally great consequences. As such its likely that Eru allowed Isildur to bind them to the earth in punishment for breaking their oaths.
This takes nothing away from him however as that is still a hell of a feat even if he was given the go ahead by Eru.
Definitely need a part 2.
I like that you indicated artists’ names
Ah come on, no Beren? One of (if not possibly) the only men to hold a Silmaril? And not only hold it, but proceed to still kick a metric ton of ass while said hand was firmly lodged in the gut of a werewolf? Great list beyond that omission though! Love the content!
definitely need a part 2
Definitely do a second video
Can't wait for part 2
I would not be quick to say that Beren did not have battle prowess. Remember; (1) he fought against Morgoth when he was living alone in the wilds as a "solitary outlaw" and Morgoth had a price on his head that was as high as King Fingon, (2) he went through Ered Gorgoroth, the Mountains of Terror that no man or elf had passed, (3) leaped at Curifin and grabbed him by the throat and threw him off his horse, and (4) went into the very throne room of Morgoth and cut a Silmaril from his crown. I would say that any one of those is impressive. He was a warrior who fought against Morgoth. Great video and thank you for posting. Please keep up the great work. I am not critical, just giving my opinion.
Most powerful man is Grima, he stomped Saruman 🤣
*Sharky
Great video, what do you think of the characters included in the mobile game LOTR: Rise To War?
Would love a part 2
Part 2 please!!
top1: Technically, the Witchking is a man who rose to prominent power. He is probably the oldest man to ever "live". Commanded vast armies, used sorcery, terrified most other beings. Lost a duel to a pretty girl next door, which is kin of a bummer though.
top2: Ar-Pharazon. He had armies and fleet. The biggest armies and the biggest fleet ever. Kinda stupid fella though.
top3: Turin. Very powerful warrior, even killed a dragon. Influenced fate of a whole kingdom. Thick as a brick though. Had emo complex.
top4: Helm Hammerhand and Hurin. Very formidable warriors, but their tales are probably apocryphal.
top5: Each kingy of Numenor other than the golden one.
Well to be fair, the Witch King only lost his duel after getting blindsided by a Hobbit with a magic dagger.
Could the Witch King still be considered human though? If thats the case, then all the wraiths could be considered as such, even thought obviously the witch king was obviously more powerful.
The Witchking was not Men anymore when he became witchking didn’t he 😉
I agree that he is the human originated character who became the most powerful, but when he rose to this amount of power, he wasn't technically a man anymore, he was a Wraith. When he was human, he was inferior compared to other men.
I would dare say that if one were to give Merry's blade(the one made to hurt the witch king) to Hurin he would beat him.
5- tuor
4- elendil, the tall
3-hurin thalion, trolls slayer
2- aragorn son of arathorn, elessar
1- TÚRIN TURAMBAR
Thanks for trusting me 😉
Solid list... except Hurin is too low, and I'd probably replace Tuor with Beren. Aragorn is probably too high as well.
@@KS-xk2so na aragorn's feat alone of arriving with the army of the dead is enough to make him top 3 easy. That scene still gives me goosebumps to this day. Helm definitely deserves to be top 5.
@@Lethalbanter Literally anyone of his blood could've done that. All it required was for him to be Isildur's heir... not sure how that displays his unique skills or powers in any way?
@@KS-xk2so but they didn't now did they.
What-if video idea for you to do:
What if Gandalf never fell at the Bridge of Khazad-dum and continued with the fellowship to Lothlorien and on forward?
so true
We definitely need a part 2
1) Aragorn
2) hurin
3) Faramir
4) helm hammerhand
5) elendil the tall
1) Turin
2) Turin
3) Turin
4) Turin
5) Turin
Beren
I would like a part 2 very much.
Very surprised there was no mention of Elindil The Tall on the list, surely he was deserving of a spot on this list?! Also I would have favored to see Eärnur on this list as well, his reputation as a great warrior is without question. I think he may have been overlooked based upon his hubris to accept a challenge by the Witch King which led to the line of kings being broken. Anywho that's just my two cents, enjoyed the video.
Hell yea, do it! Just remember any sequel has to be better than the original or it just doesn't work.
Will you do a video on the most powerful women? I know there aren't many female characters in Tolkien but would be interesting to see!
Please do a part 2
The Children of Hurin makes Romeo and Juliet sounds like a rom com
We need part 2 and maybe part 3
5# Ar Pharazon ( largest army )
4# Tuor ( killed five lesser balrogs and was the tallest of men )
3# Beren ( badass )
2# Turin ( badass as well and propably better fighter )
1# Hurin ( well, Tolkien said it himself )
I'll include the Witch king, and Elendil as honorable mentions
and...
Agandaur ( he's not canon but would kick at least Ar Pharazons ass, if you consider this as battle between Saurons armies then it could be quite opposite )
In my opinion Ar Pharazon was powerful. Imagine having Sauron bow and surrender to him in fear of his might
im surprised you left high king elendil out, he was one of the greatest ever, the man duelled a maiar to a stalemate, definitly much more powerful than isildur, hammerhand or elessar. Also the witchking of angmar for sure was a very notorious warrior and mage to be as powerful as he was in the third age
yeah do a part 2
Part 2 please
We need Elendil (kinda obvious), Bard and Fram (dragonslayers), Eorl, probably Elros (if he counts as man), Anárion (fought off the forces of Mordor for four years before the Army of the Last Alliance arrived), Eorl the Young, Théoden, Éomer and Éowyn, and the Ship-Kings of Gondor
You need three parts of course, one for each of the ages (Fourth Age excluded since we don't know much of it)
Please do a second!
Part two!👊
Yes absolutely part 2!!!!!!
Do a Part 2
Was Dior elf or man? He would destroy Sauron with his bare hands!
That dude killed three sons of Feanor and that way should be on this list
No to mention he's a quartermaia
you answer your own question, as they didnt count Earendil as a man Dior who was half man quarter elf and quarter maia he doesnt make list of man
@@wawrzys9824 kinda sad
Where you think he should be put on?
When they did vid about elfs i thought that they should put Luthien there, but im not sure that Dior would make elf's list
Dior was the first Half-elf, despite not being counted as one of this group.
cool vid Jake part two would be awesome my top picks are aragorn' theoden' helm' elendil and eomer
Please do a video on Elendil
So: Aragorn, the icon
Helm: The Favorite
Hurin: The strongest
Isildur: The cock
Tuor: The prophet
Turin: The tragic
Yes part two
I guess I missed the video you teased of The Most Powerful Women
1 video yes but want another a 2nd video (Part 2 please!)
The most powerful women of Men in the Legendarium.
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 luthien or galadriel
There is only 2 choice
@@chewysuarez "Women of Men"... Not Elven women...
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 hmmm
Emeldir (Wife of Barahir) and Lady Haleth are 2 example. 2 of them are too strong and Brave.
@@chewysuarez Brave browser?
Yes please do another boys!
Amazing video, waiting for the women list.
I am surprised Isildur is so underestimated here in the comments. His deeds agains Sauron abd his followers (while on Númenor) were epic
I blame the brief theatrical depiction of him (just like Boromir) it made him look like a little, greedy bitch.. but that’s the trade-off for a good, successful movie. Characters get turned to their basic components for brevity.
A five-man pure fighting squad - Aragorn as the leader (because someone has to also be able to think, not just fight), then Hurin, Turin, Helm and Beorn (who is officially a man but I want him in non-human form)
For a more balanced adventuring party we have Aragorn and Turin returning, but this time alongside Faramir, Beren and Bard
Elros must've been absolutely awesome but we just don't get much info about what he does.
Ultimately this is all about your own personal opinion, there is no wrong answer on who we'd each put in our personal Top 5. We can argue about placement in the Top 5 all day long..... but if your Top 5 doesn't have Hurin Thalion in it, you're wrong.
Not my personal top ten but I think this is how I would rank it based on their deeds and might. I'm not trying to rank them on virtue or popularity
10. Helm Hammerhand - This was a warrior who fought with his bear hands and inspired fear amongst his enemies in the most unique way in the legendarium
9. Aragorn - I'm sure you all know why Aragorn is here. My favourite deed of his is the summoning of the oath breakers
8. Isildur - had many renowned moments but his will to resist the ring was extremely impressive
7. Beorn - A mighty man feared by many orcs and goblins. He is a skin changer and formidable warrior in both man and bear form
6. Ar-pharazon - commanded one of the most powerful armies to ever exist and definitely the most powerful army of men
5. Beren - He was the great warrior who stole a silmaril from morgoths crown
4. Elendil - Threw down sauron along with high king gil galad
3. Tuor - He slew a balrog (it says 5 but we can't be sure due to tolkien changing his mind about how many balrogs existed and how powerful they were). He is the only man to slay a balrog. He also had a go at the firedrake of gondolin
2. Turin - He was feared amongst the orcs for being so formidable. He killed Glaurung the first dragon
1. Hurin - I remember reading somewhere that Hurin was supposed to be the mightiest man in arms that ever existed. Plus he slew 70 trolls after he became the last man standing in the nirnaeth anoediad. That's not including all the rest he slew before that
I think it's fair to say that, like all the races, men were most powerful in the first age hence why there are so many first age men at the top of this list (also, their deeds are more well known than pretty much any man of the second age). Although the numernoreans were also quite powerful in the second age also. Not sure if I should have ranked earendil in this list or not, so I just left him out. He'd probably be around the halfway part of the list if I did rank him
My list:
10.Helm Hammerhand
9.Isildur
8.Ar-Pharazon
7.Huor
6.Beren
5.Elendil
4.Tuor
3.Hurin
2.Turin
1.Earendill
Elros Tar-Minyatur: First High King Of Numenor, Eorl The Young, Earnur, Tar-Palantir and Aragorn
I’d love to see a part two and for my list ( not in order ) Turin for sure Boromir son of denethor idk that man got like 4 arrows in him and killed 20 uruk hai with arrows in him and for many other reasons um then Aragorn then maybe beren and hurin? I suppose I hope Boromir is included in pt 2
Part 2 and the most powerful women please.
My Top 5 in no particular order: Aragorn, Beren, Turin, Bard the Bowman, Elendil
Part2!!!!
Bring up Part 2
"We won't be including any of the ladies from the Tolkien legend..." BITCH whhh... "because they definitely deserve a video of their own"... My guy!
So many brilliant women in this world, role models for girls all round. Deserves to be spoken about.
Yeah blows my mind when they say tolkien was sexist. Quality of quantity. There are less important women but the ones that he writes are so fucking epic, they kinda eclipse the men 🤣.
Given how beings of the 1st age did incredible deeds it's safe to say that the divine was watered down through the ages and the list would be almost chronological, the first men first all others second. This would place Aragorn last on the list however great he was he was but a shadow of those who came before him.
I think the peak of mankind was at the 2nd age. The divine as you say was granted to them or rather became stronger at this age as clearly seen how powerful the Numenorians were.
@@paulgaton4461 The Numenorians were powerful because no one really opposed them for so long, and they shared borders with no one. They got to grow post-Morgoth and pre-Sauron. Hurin Talion would bend over any Numenorian king and make him his prison wife in about 12 seconds.
Green wizard, please!
How about Hador? Rather obscure in the stories but someone who sat next to Fingolfin must have been pretty powerful. Also Elros is not a very developed character but key when it came to the story of humans
Part 2 100% yes
Yes part 2. I’ll get back to you about who.
Part 2!!!!!!
Barahir should be on this list, his action alone set coarse to the whole story of men in this series l.
What about some of the Powerful Kings of Gondor that controlled Umbar to Tharbad from Andrast to the Sea of Rhun
One thing lacking in these videos is more precise physical description. The height of these characters should be routinely mentioned
Do another list.
Turin Turambar is the most bad ass human in Middle Earth’s history.
As much as I loved the LTRO Trilogy the 3rd age was a step down from power than the 1st and 2nd ages so.
5) Elendil - With Gil-Galad defeated Sauron at the peak of his physical power.
4) Beren - With Luthien took a Simaril from Morgoth
3) Ar-Pharazon - Commanded the most powerful army that humans ever developed,
2) Turin - Killed the first dragon by himself.
1) Hurin - Killed 70 trolls and uncounted orcs by himself and survived being tortured by Morgoth for years.
In the Wanderings of Húrin from one of the Histories of Middle Earth, literally hours after being released from Angband following 27 years of torture culminating in the deaths of his children, Húrin gets into an argument with Lorgan, the chief of the Easterlings and also insults him, nearly getting himself killed. I love him.
Nobody beats The Steadfast.
@@KS-xk2so nope!
In the end of Tolkien's writings Eonwe and not Turin will kill Melkor, just like Eonwe destroyed Morgoth in the end of the war of Wrath as it is mentioned in the Book of Lost Tales. Turin was supposed to kill Ancalagon instead but Earendil took that part. In fact Tolkien's son who edited all the mythology after his father died and is the ultimate authority and canon source in the whole mythology says it is Eonwe the one who destroyed Morgoth in the War of Wrath and the one who will kill Melkor in Dagor Dagorath
Has anyone done a top 10 swords from Middle-Earth?
Consider this a vote for a part 2!
OP dudes
Thurin turambar.. head and shoulders above the rest. Except his father mabye
Has to be Tuor . In one of the versions of The Fall of Gondolin, he slays FIVE balrogs with the Elvish greataxe Dramborleg. It’s close though. There’s also Aragorn, the Witch-king of Angmar, Hurin Thalion, Turin Turambar, & of course Beren Erchamion
Pretty sure that version isn't considered the most "canon". Tolkien later in life seemed to settle on there being only 7 Balrogs total, and in that version of The Fall, everyone and their mom is slaying Balrogs by the dozen.
I like Tuor, but I always thought he was kind of a chump next to badasses like his Uncle and Cousin. All Tuor does is get lead around by the nose by a God until he gets to Gondolin, then all he's good for there is banging the Kings daughter to make the Savior of Middle Earth.... then he sails off and becomes an elf because he's whipped. Kinda lame.
Hurin, Aragorn, Helm, hmmmm I dunno who I’d pick after that.
As far as the curse of Isildur goes there are some reasons for it outside of any innate power of the man himself.
1. Tolkien associated kings of the Dunedein as priest kings. So not only did they wield secular authority on behalf of their people. But spiritual authority as well. Especially in tje eyes of Illuvatar
2. Oaths have a very real power over the people who swear them, bordering on coercive. Especially when Eru's name was invoked. The oath of Feanor had a very real effect over his son's. To the point where they seem to have actually been compelled to carry it out at points. It's part of the reason why Elrond dissuaded the use of oaths during the council on what to do with the ring. He had seen first hand. The terrible results that oaths are capable of.
Thing is though, it is ambiguous what exactly is the fate of man as a whole? When they die, do they just go into the void, or go into the Halls of Mandos? Same with hobbits (again excluding the Tooks, Samwise and Frodo) . It is not really clearly explained what happens to those who are not immortal. Case in point - when Aragorn passed away - what was his fate ?
I think Elendil and Elros should be on the list. Overall, though, I agree with this list.
You left off Fram? The guy who killed Scatha, the Worm iirc?
I guess on that note there's also Bard Bowman. But was he powerful or just a competent archer who got a lucky break?
And is it just me or all the named dragons killed by men? Oh well, the elves got to kill Balrogs so I guess it evens out.
