Why Voldemort Couldn't Kill Dumbledore In The Ministry

Please watch: "The Life Of Marius de Romanus (Vampire Chronicles)"
The duel between Albus Dumbledore and Lord Voldemort at the ministry was a serious battle! It was something we were all hoping for but honestly before the order of the phoenix came out, I really didn’t think JK would pair these 2 incredible wizards against each other so soon but pair them she did and what a scene it was. However I’ve always wondered why the duel ended in a stalemate. Voldemort was obviously duelling to kill while Dumbledore normally always duelled to disarm and restrain only. In todays video I’m going to analyse why the duel between the 2 seen no winner and more importantly why Voldemort failed to kill his former head master.

Sorry the replaying of speech around the 8:00 minute everyone, I do be editing for 10-12 hours some videos and I get so tired I tend to lose concentration the odd time..I'll make sure it won't happen again. Dean

The fact is Dumbledor was gangster he could not be killed unless he let you kill him

[diegom]

You made a mistake: Dumbledore wasn’t Voldemort’s former headmaster, he was his former teacher

[selenayue]

Neville: oh my god! I’ve just killed Harry Potter
Voldemort: what? How? Tell me your secret

Dumbledore was so good he never even reached his prime.

In my opinion this is by far the best battle in the enitre series. Lets see if Dumbledore vs Grindelwald can top it!

I hated how the movie portrayed Dumbledore as an aging, weaker, fragile old wizard in rhe duel. Whereas in the book, he hardly broke a sweat. He was graceful and totally in control in the book.

Dude talks about this for 9 minutes.

Because Dumbledore was more powerful. It’s that simple. Always been and always will be.

Voldemort was humiliated in that battle, with Dumbledore not even trying to kill him and being absolutely relaxed the entire battle. He had to resort to possessing Harry (and that’s the only thing that made Dumbledore worry), and when not even that worked, he ran away like a bitch and was so afraid of challenging Dumbledore again that he actually sent Draco and his Death Eaters to assassinate him.

Dumbledore didn’t even want to harm or destroy Voldemort’s body, because he knew that specific body (containing Harry’s blood and so his mother’s protection) had to remain intact for Harry to survive at the end.

Dumbledore could’ve “killed” Voldemort easily if he wanted to, but he held back because he knew he wouldn’t truly be killing him due to the horcruxes—and that Harry was the one who had to kill him.

Dumbledore wins imo. He was able to protect harry, stall Voldemort until fudge arrived and did it without using his plethora of deadly skill. Great video!!!

Here’s a fact to prove that Albus Dumbledore is the MOST powerful wizard, EVER. He beat Grindelwald why Grindelwald was in possesion of The Elder Wand.

[dimitricarr]

Dumbledore was aware that Voldemort had split his soul so he wasn’t trying to Kill him. Dumbledore was aware that it was essential that the horocruxes were to be destroyed before they kill Voldemort. There is no way to use this duel to judge who was stronger.. however Voldemort was clearly going all out and Dumbledore was holding back.. Simply implies Dumbledore was stronger.

Is Dumbledore actually the former head master of Voldemort? iirc he was just a teacher when Tom Riddle went to Hogwarts.

[willigagbob]

It's always bothered me how Dumbledore was straining in the movie, in the book he matched him with ease and likely would have won.

[oily_fingers]

Throughout his life, dumbledore basically defeated the two greatest dark wizards ever known

[VerniMain]

Short answer: He wasn't strong enough. Dumbledore was much more powerful than anyone ever.

[gloluja]

Dean, you forgot to mention another factor: Dumbledore was in possession of the Elder Wand. That was another point in his favour.

[jkrause]

Voldemort's chief weakness was his anger. It has been said "A man who fights in anger, fights in weakness." Dumbledore was therefore stronger, since I believe he was able to control his emotions.

Considering that it is widely known that Dumbledore was the one wizard that Voldemort always feared, I was actually surprised that Voldemort did not flee at the sight of Dumbledore, choosing instead to give it his all. Also it didn't end in a stalemate. Dumbledore clearly won. Voldemort went full throttle and failed to kill Dumbledore. Since Dumbledore succeeded in restraining Voldemort, but Voldemort did not succeed in killing Dumbledore, Dumbledore was the winner. And yes, Dumbledore is the more powerful wizard of the two. It doesn't matter if his wand was more powerful. How Dumbledore managed to get the elder wand in the first place was by winning it. Sure, Dumbledore may not be invincible in comparison to Voldemort. But he was still more powerful, however slightly.
