Qui-Gon abusing mind tricks for 50 seconds straight

Sometimes it works, other times it really doesn't.

I feel like the content of this video is offensive to a number of different ethnicities, old people and animals. Furthermore, I think the effort put into this video should have been put into preparing for a machine learning session instead. I fail to express my disappointment in this creator with words. Henceforth, I will be leaving an angry dislike.

I love how Qui Gon waves his hand twice like, “Huh this usually works”

[taylorcorbett]

I like how he just about acknowledges he's trying to be mind tricked, but he's still willing to do business with Qui-Gon even after the attempt. Mercantile level 100

[birdman]

Its 49 seconds long
"How many other lies have i been told by the council?"

[SirToaster]

Qui-Gon *egnites lightsaber*: Credits will do fine
Watto: OK!
End credits

[JWeb]

A common junk dealer has a higher willpower than a political leader, pretty accurate.

[agentredacted]

But credits will do fine.
No, they won't.
Credits WILL do fine.
NO, they WON'T!
lmfao

When I was a kid I always thought the reason Watto was able to resist the mind trick was because he was too greedy to ever give anything away for free.

[MrEaglenator]

Watto: what do you think you are some kind of Jedi waving your hand around like that?
Qui-Gon: well, actually...

[SuperBlasian]

In 2024, a lot of people try using this technique. Over the years this “Jedi Mind Trick” has been nicknamed “Gaslighting”

i love that second "credits will do fine"

[drewcalhoun]

He thought if he forcefully said “WILL” it was gonna work better than before 😂

[_Stalc_]

looking at this retroactively quigon using the green lightsaber is pretty fitting as a jedi counslar than him as a jedi knight, uses the force quite often in the film and makes more sense how he would have had a hard time fighting somebody like darth maul.

0:12 Obi-wan doing what is called prayer support

[lafabl]

he thought Watto was weak-minded, would later realize how smart Watto is.

[ChrisThomson-yl]

Imagine the timeline if Qui Gon just forced choked Watto. It’s not the Jedi way but it never stopped Anakin

[luigicavallo]

“What do you think you are? Some kinda Jedi, waving your hand around like that? With your robes and your lightsab…waaaait!”

[Alextamere]

"You will unload your space beer into the back of my spaceship"

[chief]

"Credits will. Do fine"

This is why he was always at odds with the council. Always a rebel.
