  We know Harry knocked over a vase from Petunia on his toy broom… so it was Aunt Petunia’s vase that gave him the scar

  It'd be funny if giants were just naturally immune to age related ailments but never lived long enough to know.

  In Order of The Phoenix creature says “twins, unnatural things” when referring to Fred and George. Maybe he thinks this because he saw what the Blacks did to Sirius’s twin and now associates twins with disgracing the house of Black

  My favorite weird theory is that Harry Potter is actually death hunting down someone trying to escape him, ie Voldemort

  Cedric being a Deatheater would give a whole new meaning to Voldy calling him &quot;the spare&quot;... <br>&quot;The spare servant/follower/deatheater&quot;

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qB3PfZ-caDk&amp;t=1065">17:45</a> do we know if giants have a definitive lifespan? They could be biologically immortal the way lobsters are but are so hyper aggressive they artificially keep the population low. It would make sense that prior to wizard intervention they had a stable population and it was only after wizards started hunting them that the aggression became a problem because it’s original purpose (keeping the population of immortal apex predators in check) was no longer an issue

  It&apos;s a love for quidditch that makes you immortal. It&apos;s at least Oliver woods secret (he tanked hundreds of killing curses but was unaffected because if he died he couldn&apos;t play quidditch anymore) And before harry goes to die he kisses the snitch and gets to respawn

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qB3PfZ-caDk&amp;t=2181">36:21</a> i dont think dobby died of an unbreakable curse, however the resistance of a house elf resisting a contract with a wizard may have slowed him down enough for that knife to make it through.

  This reminds me so much of when my college English profs would be like “any theories in your final essays are fine as long as you can find textual evidence to support them.”

  Y&apos;know, I never questioned it, but WHY did the FRENCH alchemist, who made a philosopher&apos;s stone and needed it semi-regularly to make more elixir of life to keep living, keep that stone in a BRITISH bank?? Don&apos;t they have their own bank / Gringott&apos;s branch in France?? And yes, even without magic a trip from France to Britain is easily managable but why would you do it if you didn&apos;t have to?? Not to mention I wouldn&apos;t want the Fantastic Beasts version of Flamel to leave his house, nevermind the country<br><br>EDIT: I have been informed that Flamel lived in Devon, England at the time of Philosopher&apos;s Stone, so he probably WOULD have put it in a vault in Gringotts if he didn&apos;t want to keep it at home. Or maybe the whole thing is a fake-out in Dumbledore&apos;s plan, the stone wasn&apos;t the real one to begin with and it wasn&apos;t even Quirrel who broke into Flamel&apos;s vault, who knows :P

  Arthur also got attacked by a giant snake , but he didn&apos;t die, because he was tethered to life by a Horcrux

  unicorns grant life via magic blood. and hagrid literally keeps hundreds of unicorn hairs in his hut. im sure you could assume that hagrids proximity to hundreds of magical wand cores must have some type of magical radiation
