Note: Many dragons have been left out, it is crazy all that there are, I have tried to put as many as I could. I add a list at the end of the video with many others.
Other similar classes are included as dragons (Wyvern, Drake, Lindwrum, Wrym ...).
Dragons with indeterminate measurements, it is because their size changes in different scenes, it is impossible to measure them, but they are very striking dragons for their size, so I have decided to include it by giving them a size by eye, but without specifying the number.

Well, technically the square-cube-law limits any living being in its size, no matter if real or fictional, as long as they apply to physics.
@@graustreifbrombeerkralle1078 Well, I just imagined a universe where the square cube law doesn't exist, so all these happy dragons can exist in my universe without the tyranny of your "actual physics!"
I love how this video eventually became a space size compiration, just to show the size of Super Shenron.
A true galaxy eye.

I love always seeing Ancalagon somewhere on the list.
Everyone talks about Drogon and Balerion because of GOT and house of the dragon. I'm just like if they only knew about Ancalagon.
Bro’s in his own weight class, only three other dragons on this list were bigger
Ancalagon makes Dragon look like a little lizard you’d see running around your garden
The crushed car under Smaug's finger was a clever detail.
Your insurance won't cover that
@@XianHu Insurance doesn't like covering anything they like charging you though.
Yes, but Smaug and Ancalagon should have front legs. That is how Tolkien depicted them. The wyvern version of Smaug in the Hobbit movie is just wrong.
@@Swiftbow cool?
@@cameronsharpe6647 I'm just annoyed by the trend toward "realistic" dragons in fiction lately. Especially here since Tolkien's dragons did not evolve... they were specifically bred by a god-like being. Having 6 limbs doesn't have to be justified. (And 6 limbs also looks cooler.)
I did dig the rest of Smaug's design. His snout is especially cool.
Me, a Tolkien fan, thinking Ancalagon was the largest dragon:
Several anime: "Allow us to introduce ourselves"
When the classics meet modern power creep....
yeeeeaaaahhh anime breaks a lot of .... everything so it doesn't surprise me at all that they have dragons bigger than continents, world,s and galaxies... considering I've watch gurren Laggan and they had a mech throwing sprial galaxies at a demon.
Don't worry, it will take 10 episodes to charge their breath attack, so you have time.
Yeaa, glaurug tho
Be careful folks, Melkor creates another big dragons since he banished from Middle-Earth. A dragon bigger than galaxy? Manwe should know about this. I am going to the west!
5:18 that's our classic MetaBall, when you think it's over , but it's just the beginning.
It's interesting how some dragons look notably larger than others but are lower on the list because they're somehow shorter than the dragon one or two places above them.
I was about to say that poor Dragon from Shrek doesn’t have a real name but then I remembered Donkey exists
yeah, and "Ogre" and "Ogress", the other main characters. Dreamwork really doesn't represent fantasy minorities
@@dominict.8720 u mean Shrek and Fiona?
@@rikweeds2306 who are they?
@@dominict.8720 lol troll
Actually the dragon from Shrek has a name, Fergun
The inclusion of the Space X Dragon made me chuckle harder than it should have.
They could also have included HMS _Dragon_ (D35).

Or really any number of other ships named Dragon/Draco/etc.

@@frostmint3584 perfectly cubic fire breath.
@@FebruaryHas30Days when? Timestamp?
Or is She even in the Video?
@@Ewyn4851 That's my brain (2021) whenever I see the word "Dragon".
Ancalagon crushed three of the biggest volcanoes in middle earth when he fell from the sky... "as big as a mountain" is an understatement
On The One Wiki To Rule Them All, he is described as being "as tall as a mountain". Keep in mind that he is much longer than he is tall.
That's not necessarily correct.
"But Eärendil came, shining with white flame, and about Vingilot were gathered all the great birds of heaven and Thorondor was their captain, and there was battle in the air all the day and through a dark night of doubt. Before the rising of the sun Eärendil slew Ancalagon the Black, the mightiest of the dragon-host, and cast him from the sky; and he fell upon the towers of Thangorodrim, and they were broken in his ruin."
Towers of Thangorodrim does not necessarily mean mountains, it could mean actual stone towers constructed by Morgoth atop the mountains. Not all mountains are super enormous. Some are quite small and pathetic when compared to big mountains like Kilimanjaro, Denali, K2, and Everest. We just don't know his true size because Tolkien didn't deem it important enough to go into that much detail. I think his depiction in this video is a pretty good baseline.
“Thangorodrim was destroyed during the War of Wrath at the end of the First Age when Ancalagon, freshly slain by Eärendil fell dead on the peaks and crushed them to rubble.”
Also from the wiki
Thangorodrim was also the 3 tallest mountains in all of middle earth, though not Arda
I wonder how Eärendil slew him tho.. feels like a hell of a hard thing to pull of with just a sword. Maybe he threw a silmaril on his forehead.
@@Hnke90 ooohhh that's a looonggg processs... Eerendil didn't just slain him though
Aurelion Sol: Big enough to hold a star in his hand, struggles to defeat a 3ft tall fuzzball with a blowgun.
#balance #nerf
@@AaronShenghao lol
Sounds accurate
Or, anyone really. I mean, don't get me wrong, ASol can do some ridiculous damage, but he gets blown up if you sneeze on him.
Dude aurelion sol is just 24 million KM while super shenron is 57billion light years
Smaug is crushing the old lady's car. Thought we wouldn't notice, but we did.
I understood that reference.
No
Wow I had to go back to the beginning at 0:51 to see that!
Who parked their dragon... on my car?
I saw that
Aurelion Sol in lore: An ancient cosmic dragon who is literally bigger than the galaxies
Aurelion Sol in gameplay: *Gets killed by a rat who uses blowgun*
Your mom.
Bricky: Yet this literal god dragon can get ganked by a stubby little rat with a blowgun... What?
My thougths was getting killed by a mushroom but that works too.
any one else here waiting so see our LoL rep Asol here?
in lore is bigger than galaxies, the size of the observable universe itself
Great video! If you ever do an updated version, I have a few suggestions:
- Orochi, the eight-headed dragon from Japanese folklore. He appears as a boss in several video games, including Okami and Nioh.
- Spyro (I was surprised he wasn't in this one!)
- Falcor the Luck Dragon from Neverending Story
ether drake from stellaris would also be relevant =)
Same here; no Spyro?!
Also some of the other HTTYD ones, and the Dragon Tails ones (Quetzal, Zac and Weezy, Cassy, etc)
Also some of the dragons from Yugioh like:
The classic Blue Eyes White Dragon & Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon (basically the same size but 3 heads)
The signer dragons: Stardust / Black Rose / the Crimson Dragon
Also some dragons from the Temeraire books, while we're at it:
Celestial
Regal Copper
Longwings
Kazilik
Ironwing
Grayling
Yellow Reaper
Sui-Riu
Aurelion sol in lore: *this*
Aurelion sol in game: “no, pls don’t get under my 500m Q range, I will literally die.”
I'm pretty sure in lore Aurelion Sol is few kilometers long long give or take a few hundred meters because in his story on the universe page he at least fits on Runeterra and in the semi canonical game Legends of Runeterra it shows him to be about the size of a mountain.
@@thechainwarden aurelion sol can enlarge himself or shrink himself by as much as he wants
@@diomes695 is league of legends is trash or LOL this fact is trash?
@@diomes695 You are correct that game drains it's players sanity yet we all still keep playing it.
@@diomes695 You can't spell for shit either.
The Ender Dragon being longer than Alduin, the World Eater, is just honestly amazing
Well,the Elder scrolls lore says alduin can change his size from what it's in the game to bullshit sizes of big
@@bcgazero6472 Damn, Alduin was pretty stupid for not using that.
@@natalcavity5424 well,the game wanted to make him beatable,they overdid it a lot
@@bcgazero6472 they made him too easy
It’s really funny considering how powerful he is, and then you see dragons who are considerably less so just *dwarf* him.
The models look SO clean , so realistic, this video is just beautifully done.
I had to do a double-take when I saw Drew McIntyre in the comments section of a dragon video, then I realized that if Drew McIntyre claymored the teeth out of Nessie, then he's probably here scouting for future competition.
@@TheeTy294 that's right .
Wait till 2024
Two dragons that I wish could have been included are Jörmungandr from Norse mythology and Mim from Bone, as both are depicted as dragons that encircle the planet holding their tail in their mouth
Jormungandr is a serpent though, not a dragon
@@lach7890 well he was also referred to as an ormr which was the same word they used for dragons
@@lach7890dragons are often called serpents.
When talking about Dragon Size.... You already Know that Super Shenron Is gonna be the winner...although i’m happy they included my boi Grigory.
I mean,Super Shenron effectivly is THE creator of the dragon Ball universe.
Or at the very least, the one that the creator gave his power to, in order to fullfill wishes.
Hes either the most, or the second most powerfull creator god in the entire universe. With Zero as his counterpart / Destroyer god.
Cant realy get more powerfull/bigger then that.
@@ethribin4188 Yeah, Super Shenron and Zeno are the only two stated to have truely infinite power.
I think Flare Dragon Ceifreed might give him a run for his money, but we're never given a scale of his true size. Would have loved to have seen him and maybe the Lodoss War Dragons as well.
extra points for that, ma boy grigori is offthen forgoten
True, super Shenron is big and in the anime making the galaxy look like a pebble 🤣
I have a suggestion, when this channel reaches 1 million subscribers, they need to make UA-cam Channels SIZE comparison.
Yes!!!
Nice idea Dude
Good idea!
Agreed and maybe use those blue cubes from the Time video.
Meta Ball Studios made one before in terms of their amount of subscribers (ua-cam.com/video/vnuRXGrnDM8/v-deo.html), just so you know. X-}
Props for putting Aurelion Sol's claw around the sun. I laughed and saw it coming, then laughed even harder.
fucking same i didn't think Asol would get included
@@williamkitson9295 not familiar with lol but couldnt he be upwards of a similar size to super shenron or at least galaxy size ?
@@gabrielbrunet7150 Yes, in game he throws galaxies like frisbees, way off.

ANCALEGON FINALLY GOT SOME LOVE IN A DRAGON VIDEO! thank you!!
Yup he deserves more fans
My favorite ❤
1:00 Seeing Bahamut stand up straight like he's politely asking for something is the best thing I've seen all year.
"Mom says it's my turn on the Switch..."
Mom says it's my turn on the summon materia slot
"Excuse me, Cloud asked for no pickles"
I just recently started playing FFVII, and seeing him not intimidating AF was kinda weird. He wiped my ass yesterday on my first try. Seems like he's a though mofo. I'm not ready to look for guides, yet. But I can't say for sure I won't.
He whips out the dragon pose when he is summoned. Except in FFX, where he uses the arms crossed disappointed parent pose.
With House of the Dragon being quite popular so far - if you did an updated version with Balareon the Black Dread, Vhagar, etc... I think it would do quite well! Maybe even throw in the Gorod Krovi dragon from Bo3 Zombies for shits and giggles since you added the Ender Dragon hahah
This video demonstrates size/proportional differences better than any I have seen, great work!
Vhagar from House Of The Dragon is 150 meters long.
Like to see Bahamut from FF14 whos big enough that a raid fight against another dragon is in the palm of his hand
@Thomas Allen when you realise Balerion and Vhagar are similar size to smaug it's kinda crazy
Vaghar at the time of the Dance was similar in size to Balerion... when the Conquest happened. Since Dragons just keep growing with age, he was significantly bigger one hundred years later.
@@TheRedMage01 Then Midgardsormr deserves a mention too. Recall 1/5th of the map was around the husk of that thing way back when I still had a proper machine to run it. (There's been several expansions since.)
I'm so glad you got Super Shenron correct. That guy is huge.
Not correct ss is same as observable universe
@@Agent-ik1ui So he's "Bigger than galaxies" then. Technically correct. Also, if Deathbattle's source for the size of the DB universe being 8x ours, then he's bigger than our observable universe.
He could be seen across multiple universes, 6 to atleast universe 11
@@JainEhren fighters in universe 6 and 11 seen SS so he’s massive

Yup...same reason I couldn't swallow Gurren Laggen.

I mean, when you gotta continuously raise the ceiling the keep the show going... I still like DBZ Super. =P
And all the small boys and immature "men" are screaming "YAAAY".
There is only one Dragon Ball creator and he is named Akira Toriyama. He is the one who created and drew the Dragon Ball manga from start to finish.
@@ViliEvans He doesn't draw the super manga, only the original manga. Also Super Shenron isn't even this big in the manga, only in the anime is he this is big.
@Velstadt Hekkleson you mad bruh?
Noticing the loooong list at the very end, I'd love to see more videos on Dragons.
The Spyros and Cynder the Dragon were my childhood and would love to see them in a video for nostalgic reasons!
Keep up the great work, always inspiring!! 🤍
As you were zooming out to a certain level, I thought you were going to include the actual Draco constellation. That would've been neat.
You can't really measure a constellation because it's an artificial grouping of stars created by humans, not a natural formation like a nebula. The stars are scattered across space, with vast distances between them.
@@patrick_j_leeYou'd just measure the region of space they encompass. Easy.
@@patrick_j_lee did you forget that the topic of the video is measuring the size of creatures "created by humans"
@@ranwolf7650 valid point, but the constellation is the 2D shape we get from combining these spatial features, not the 3 dimensional shape they have.

It's more bonkers when you find out that dragon grants wishes with no limits at all, literally nothing you could think of would be beyond that dragon's power to grant. In Dragon Ball his power out does all the gods in all the surviving universes but since he has no real will of his own he does nothing until summoned. Touch silly. :P

Can you imagine being so large that you look at your tail and what you see is how it was three minutes ago.
That’s not even close to how long it would. When Super Shenron thinks to move his tail, it takes several hundred million years for the nerve impulse to travel to his tail to move it. When he looks at his tail he probably sees what it looked like half the lifetime of the universe ago

Neither did I. Kinda wild to see how big it really is.
I’m blown away at the detail and thoroughness of your videos!!! You’re amazing!!
Wouldn't the insane size of Super Shenron, and the countless lightyears from bodypart to bodypart mean that observers watching him would only see a tiny fraction of his body at a time, spanning the time from his summoning, to his dispersal?
He would barely be visible, just a small blurr on the nightsky, slightly changing over the course of millions of years, as the light from each tiny bodypart appears for a minute or two, and dissapears again
Interesting...
my response, magic. Thing can literally reshape the multiverse however the person who summons him wants. He isn't going to let a pesky thing like physics get in his way.
or everything apears at the same time, if he shine, it would be like enter a dark room at night and turn on a giant light blinding billions of tiny living beings used to their tiny little lights that they call sun
He actually uses his magic to look small enough for the user to see him fully
outlawing magic, the parts of him wouldn't just appear and disappear, instead the whole of him would distort, meaning whichever bit was closest to you would look fairly normal, then it would distort for a bit as it joined the rest, which itself would be more and more distorted, since by the time the light from the furthest point has reached the closest point of itself, that closest part would be making new light.
Smaug: I'm the biggest dragon there is.

Man's not even bigger than some blocky lad that sucks up crystal juice for a living
@Social Injustice Goblin it's a joke
Alduin's size is partially the result of game engine limitations. However there is a mod called "World Eater Beater" which turns him into a proper boss fight and he grows to Ancalagon scale

The super dragonballs that summon Super Shenron are each the size of a planet.

I admire the sheer variety of sources you pulled dragons from.
Wow the largest dragon on earth is from Fairy Tail. Amazing
Yup but mid and Overated asf
Just when you thought it was safe to zoom out of the planet, you find a dragon holding the Sun and you think, ‘ok, that’s massive, can’t get much bigger than that!’ Then you realise that there’s still a minute or two to go and there’s another dragon juggling galaxies. Should have known better really.

Including Ramoth was a pleasant surprise. The Dragonriders of Pern series is one of my all time favorites.
And a book accurate model too with the forked tail, head knobs and vaguely equine head.

Most of those dragon are in fact wyverns. Which is not technically a Dragon
Love the descriptions of ancalagon in the simarillion, nice to see him really show off his scale
He's so big his shadows can block out the sun for hundreds of feet
He fell and crushed volcanos bigger than Mount Everest. They didn’t show off his scale.
"Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old"
cool music btw, and I thought Ancalagon was big xD
i mean he's fourth largest on this list and the first two are larger than planets
he's the forst largest, but the 3 largest are not considered creature that's suppose to live on the earth.
The other two are basically Gods
Super Shenron : “i can’t find my friends.....where are they?”
super tengen toppa gurren lagann : Sup little snake how are you?
God: who is talking?
@@horrizon6219 actually super shenron was size of a universe in his true form
@@KiNg-me5zf Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann is actually 52.8% as big as the observable Universe.
Btw, it's more appropriate to refer to Gurren Lagann as "it."
@@fransthefox9682 rlly?? Then why it's just only 58 billion ly?? I've watch the series and do some researches on how big sttgl?? The drill was as big as 100 universes, but sttgl isn't
Me: Ancalagon the Black better be in this video, he's the biggest.
MetaBallStudios: Super Shenron would like a word with you in his office.
Anime is wild.
Yeah as soon as I saw regular Shenron I was like "you ain't seen nothing yet," I was just watching Dragon Ball Super. Super Shenron is ridiculously large, seemingly to the point where any regular matter just phases through him, which is good or otherwise a very large portion of the known universe would be obliterated.
@@boppertron4929 I am not into anime, despite having seen a few anime shows in their entirety in the past simply because I was in the same room as the people watching the show at the time. I do tend to consider myself a semi-weeb (all in good fun of course) because I appreciate anime artstyles and a lot of J-rock and K-pop. There are a few JRPGs I like too, but they are not as traditional as mainline JRPGs. JRPGs are hard for me to get into. Anyway, yeah, Super Shenron, big dude.
If I'm not entirely incorrect "dragons" in far east cultures are more like spirits than flesh and blood creatures. God-like things. So size is not that relevant for them.
It was nice to see him in there, but I've heard some interesting theories on how he may not have been the size of a mountain as many read the passage to say. I think it was a video on the channel History of the Ages
I wonder how big is his office
Void Ghidorah: Laughs uncontrollably
Before he realizes that his actual size doesn’t even reach Ancalagon.
Toyotaro: How big do you want Super Shenron to be?
Toriyama: Yes.
He's actually much, much, MUCH larger than the estimated size based off the video. Super Shenron is 57 000 000 000 light-years long, while the video shows him at ~50 000 000 light-years long.
@@LadyMcGiusti the dude is so big they're measuring him in a damn distance
@@oplap6269 Yup!
@@NippyNep Though you're more likely to use kilometers when talking about distance.
@@LadyMcGiusti I mean my god does it matter at this point? :D
5:21 when you thought the video was done 😨
Oh hey Alteori, it's good to see you watching it 🙋🏾
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
"There's always a biggerfish"
Lmfao same. Btw I'm a big fan.
as soon as it kept going i was like, yep stupid shenron. IE super dragon ball dragon
Once we started getting into "indeterminate" territory it lost traction but I still wanted to see Super Shrenron. I love dragons, the bigger, angrier and more destructive, the better.
i think they were just indeterminate because their size varies. normal Shenron for instance sometimes only appears a dozen meters long and other times he appears hundreds of meters long.
@@saphcali think its because Dente/little Green has stronger 'Magic' than Kami
Probably because some of the dragons dont have a set determined height/length in numbers. Some of them vary in size, like Shenron. Others like Ancalagon only have vague descriptions.
I would like to see Grima (from Fire Emblem Awakening) in this comparison too! Grima (in game) was large enough to have a small-scale battle on its back, so I imagine it would scale around the same size (maybe a tad larger) than the Black Dragon
I am surprised they didn't have, like, Jormungandr and other such serpents as part of the comparison, despite having Dalamadur. That said, Dalamadur is classed as an Elder Dragon within the setting it originates from, whereas Serpents are generally not seen as Dragons (and are often explicitly distinct from one another in most mythos).
Grima would've been cool, though.
Grima is somewhere between 1-2 kilometers long, so yes, around the same scale as Ancalagon.
Damn, I never realized how big Smaug was; he’s huge!
Yeah, but it turns out he's positively tiny compared to some!
Smaug is huge in the book, it is said that when he flies he covered the skies
@@KiNg-me5zf I feel like they used a more book-accurate measurement yet still went with the Movie model for some reason. Since he's really not that big in the movie. And we get *plenty* Of good comparison shots to go off of. like smaug's head right beside Bilbo, or in LakeTown.
it's a matter of perspective, Smaug is big, but his long and slender body makes him look smaller.
Yet insignificant to Ancalagon, who is from the same universe as Smaug (even if he is deceased).
For a hot second as I’m watching the worlds get smaller, I’m thinking “there’s no way there’s a dragon that big”, then when I saw what it was I was like “Oh yea, true.”
Was not expecting the PERN dragon to make a showing. Sweet
Incredible, a dragon that has scales bigger than our galaxy
And then one forgotten that scales infinitely 🗿
I was confused and asking "who the hell is bigger than Arelion Sol"...and then I remembered that...HUGE BOI
We live in a world where Dragon from Shrek is larger than Rathalos. And I’m okay with that.
Also somebody dreamed up a dragon so big that if it decided to eat or burn you, you'd die of old age before you ever noticed, there's that much distance involved.
I mean rathalos was considered as medium sized monster back at 3rd or 4th generation
To be fair, Rathaslos is a pretty small wyvern. I think Fatalis should have been represented
@@DiamondAppendixVODs or safi
@@DiamondAppendixVODs Rathalos is the poster boy of the franchise though, it's the most well known monster from the series.
How to Train Your Dragon:
0:57 Toothless
3:30 Red Death
3:52 Bewilderbeast
7:00 Light Fury (not shown)
That was amazing. I am so happy you had Ramoth in there, she and Canth were my favorite Dragons from the Pern series. Haven't read them in years (decades?), was a nice flashback.
The ender dragon looks like it’s still loading in
Lol You read my mind
Bruh the ender dragon is just 3 meters and the length is 16 meters tall
Charizard: "I'm not a dragon, I'm an Australian flame lizard."
I love it! At the end I was like oh he better not have forgotten super shenron! And then he appeared
Dragon sizes > universe sizes > back to dragon sizes
Dragon
(Shrek)
Every dragons: high polygon, very detailed
Minecraft Dragon: haha blocky goes brrr
I was surprised to see that Alduin is smaller than the Enderdragon. Really makes the "World Eater, Firstborn of Akatosh" feel a bit pathetic.
@@notTheUsualG I guess that's true
Me, watching a seven minute video until completion: *where the f--- is Spyro?!*
lmfaoooo
I was looking for Acnologia from Fairy Tail.
@@jasonblackwell5456 probably the same size as igneel
yooo same
Have the model, but he forgott put in the video
People who are new to this channel: "wait, why is it zooming out from earth?"
Old timers: "oh, here we go again"
People from How to Train Your Dragon: That dragon is known as Red Death.
Smaug: I am death.
Deathwing: Hold my beer.
Ancalagon: "Ew, I stepped on an ant."
Super shenron: Horton might hear a who but that might be his imagination
Me: **Sees the "Ancalagon the black"** I never knew there was a dragon that big.
**Camera zooms out**
Me: That's... pretty big.
**Zooms out**
Me: Oh come on!?
**Zooms out**
Me: **Sees "Dragon ball super"** Honestly, I don't know what else I expected.
Anacalgon was described as being a size similar to mt doom
@@velphidrow Ancalagon's size is never directly described. It's inferred from the fact that he broke three mountains when he fell.
@@TheNeilBlack and, technically, two dwarven cities, so we don't know exactly how far apart the mountains were, only that they were described as the "greatest and most towering mountains in all of Arda."
So, in short, he's pretty big. Undetermined, but big.
@@TheNeilBlack The three mountains he broke was THANGORODRIM. Most estimates put each of the three cones at 35,000 feet high. For Ancalagon to have smashed those peaks into rubble when he fell he would need to be SUBSTANTIALLY larger than in this video.
Who else was saying "keep going, keep going, more, more" on the zoom out for Super Shenron?
Me, honestly I was wondering if there was something bigger than him lol
me because i knowed that there's bigger dragon: void ghidorah
@@jarekgaming3259 is Void Ghidorah the one from The Planet Eater? Because I thought he was like 20km long or is there a bigger version of Ghidorah?
the second it zoomed out from earth i knew where it was going. was pleasantly surprised by the stop to say hi to Aurelion Sol from LoL.
I'm pretty sure Super Shenron's pupils are bigger than a galaxy. That's what I like to think, anyway.
I was happy to see Kralkatorrik toward the end there. I would've been disappointed if the elder dragons were left out completely, especially after seeing WoW in there. Guild wars gets sandbagged a lot.
It's obscure but it would be cool to see Crosell the marquis from Star Ocean 3
Came to see Ancalagon the Black, was not disappointed.
10/10
How would someone even defeat a dragon like that?
@@ChildOfTheWilderness dunno, the Sil says Eärendil fought Ancalagon through the night and eventually killed him. He was in possession of a Silmaril, though, so who knows if that could have helped in some way. We just don't know, but it's fun to imagine.
@@ChildOfTheWilderness magic...flying...boat?
( The fight did include a magic flying boat, I'm serious)
@@noneofyourbeeswax1949 If i may be so bold to suggest; maybe the Valar/Eru super boosted Eärendil, like what happened to Gandalf...
@@Merecir entirely possible, Tolkien did leave us with many mysteries
As soon i saw Shenron in that list, i knew who would be Number one
I thought Porunga would be on it as well
But I apologized meta ball studios because he’s missing porunga.
Number 1 is super shenron.
@@wallrider4194 Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann who is bigger than the observable universe :"Super Shenron is a cute little thing".
@@THEREALZENFORCE Not a dragon, though.
I love that Ramoth was in there. I wasn't expecting her. Thank you so much for the shout out to an old but solid set of books.
I am glad too, I love the books, it just bothers me a little that she was actually much larger. Somewhere I found she was at least 40 metres long.
This seriously needs a First Person View remaster!!!!!
I wish Spyro was on this list, he's got to be one of the most recognizable dragons out there
He have the model, but forget put in the video
Who is Spyro ?
@@rack548 little purple dragon from the late 90's to early 2000's from a game series of the same name. They did a remaster of the original 3 games last year
As soon as it started fading out from earth, I said "Yep, here comes super shenron!"
The thing I appreciate about this the most is the book-accurate Saphira. (As opposed to how she looked in that one movie we won't talk about)
As opposed to what, exactly? There was no movie, and there was no terrible video game tie-in either.
I am so glad Paramount sat on the rights to Dragonriders of PERN until they were worthless. Todd McCaffrey already did a good enough job of desecrating Anne McCaffrey's world; we don't need a soulless corpo doing it as well.
I feel like thats is only book one Saphira. It would have been cool of they included Glaeder and Shruiken as well
@@alaeriia01 Yes...there's no movie. Let's all just unanimously agree that it didn't exis...I mean, there are only the books, and it was awesome.
@@kingmundane1 Yes, I would very much like to see how big Shruikan is compared to Saphira and Thorn.
@@kennethavecilla3220 The books weren't all that good, but I'm going to give Paolini a pass for it because he was 15 when he started writing the books.
Would love to see a little lineup of the Souls-like dragons sized up! There’s a good few in those games. Perhaps even include the draconic crew from Elden Ring too
I’d love a size comparison video for the enemies of each Soulsborne game.
5:42
The long dramatic zoom out here feels like _the PERFECT_ setup for a Yo Mama joke.
Spryo didn't even make an honorable mention at the end, awh, poor guy.
Though strangely he's mentioned in the description, under 'SOURCES'
Да, тоже о нём думал (
It was ALMOST added into the video...
Seeing the Space-X Dragon included made me laugh. Nicely done.
Seeing Charizard (who is not a dragon) made me laugh too.
Space x was just for size reference.
@@Abraxas99x I guess Charizard was just for size reference too XD
@Downforyears Now him, they counted for some odd reason he's dragon-like I guess? 😅 but the letters over the space x ship are grey and it says reference under it.
I can’t believe Dalamadur was on here. This channel is amazing.
While in reality, the largest dragon is the Komodo Dragon.
yeah, and it doesnt even bigger than a man
@eau de coco lol
Yeah and it doesn't even breathe fire!! But super terrifying nevertheless...
AND THE FIRE FROM ITS BREATH WILL BURN YOUR NOSE
@@upamhandique8773 it breathes poison technically, because its spit is poison
I’ve always wondered specifically how big Balerion the Dread from Game of Thrones was in comparison to Drogon.
I think GRRM said he’d be just slightly smaller than Smaug in the hobbit films? I could have heard wrong though.
There is a detailed YT video on the topic just search for a comparison between the two
@@lordrichardvantiltingen7109 Of course there is
In the TV show, Drogon is said to be a bit bigger. In the books, Balerion is a fair bit bigger than Drogon (who is still adolescent there).
@@Emberheart_ they said that in the show? I don’t remember that lol, I do remember that in the books he wasn’t just a fair bit bigger, drogon paled in size compared to balerion.
Was hoping to see Skyrim in there and you got Dragon Age, Monster Hunter, WoW, the Hobbit and so many others. Great broad list of dragons, across many genres, awesome job.
I was hoping to see Fatalis or at least Spyro c'mon he's one of the most iconic dragons
Alduin from Skyrim was in there!
Paarthrunax and Odahviing got honorable mentions in the credits. Allegedly, Alduin's "final form" is large enough for him to literally fulfill his role as the "World-Eater." Would have been cool to see that, assuming Nirn is the same size as Earth.
I can't find it now, but I heard that MetaBall created a model for Spyro, but forgot to include him.
Honestly never heard the word “genre” used with dragons.
I'm just happy that Kralkatorrik made into this. Awesome dragon. (really thought that I never would see GW2 here)
It brings me such great joy to see the bull dragon from Reign of Fire being included!
