Where do you think the line is drawn... I mean Anakin had hte greatest amount of midis ever... Where would have been the limit of his powers if someone had taught him well and he did not suffer the loss against Obi-Wan... If he could have studied since he was a little boy.. Could he have levitated by using the force... Or snap his fingers and blow someones heart? With some knows background info by you all I hope I can get my answer :).. Thank you already...

to answer the question about levatation... the closest thing to levatation I've personally seen in star wars, is in the Clone Wars.. when Dooku floats down to that crazy- wannabe Sith fighter. I forget what her name is.. the one that anakin owns after a huge like, 3 ep fight.

And about the midiclorians.
From what i know, its just like.. um.. say.. Chakara from Naruto. You have alot of mediclorians. you have a huge chakara potential. your potential in the force is strong.
That doesn't mean you knwo how to use them to their full extent. Say, I coul dhave 3x the amount of mediclorians than say... Bubu. I have 3x the potential in the force that Bubu has. But, if Bubu knows how to use a higher percentile of his than i do, then he will have a stronger force game. you know what i mean?

I differ just slightly, your Midi count reflects potential ability not granted ability, you still have to train just as hard as anyone else to learn the skills, but once learned I am sure if you had a very high count you could affect a much greater area with you skills

well, in theory the more midi chlorians you have the better the force is with you. but like many say before. "its not only how strong the force is with you. but how strong you are with the force."

anakin's teacher wasnt yoda...but i think vader OWNED...still hard to beleive that whiney anikin is VADER who chokes soemoen thru a screen and catched blaster bolts..(VADER is the strongest in force...most midi count plus trained by a sith lord...yes he prolly was once palpatine became emp.)

however ANAKIN was horrible...he is NOT vader...no...james earl jones is..

Anyways the point is that if your brains blow, it feels less painfull than stabbing.. ( if the blow quickly).. Same as if someone cut your head of but that doesnt happen so often,... usually its the body

Actually, burning is probably one of the worst things you can do to nerves. Burn something like a sensory nerve and you risk it releasing all of its chemical receptor. Aka, as painful as it could possibly get from that nerve. Your body's natural painkiller would kick in pretty quickly though.

The heart shutting down wouldn't actually hurt as much, but the sudden muscle strain would probably send you into shock, as could the pain of being stabbed.

YOu cutted a too short piece of my text :)
It said pain.. and heart... but you forgot the because the heart is shutting down :).. Now I have bever felt but for sure a heartache is not fun...
and it is a part of death in that way... anyways you wont even feel the heart stopping if your brains go boom because the nerve system is over there...

And about the nerves burning and nortfeelign anything.. Well you wont feel the pain around the wound because those parts burned but your heart never burned unless someone stabbed you over there which kills pretty fast...

Is it just me or do all of Yuken's posts have someone that disagrees? being stabbed does not hurt until the adrenaline pops off. THEN it starts to hurt.:D

What were we talkin about again?

Crusing someones head or blow his heart or break his brains so fast he feels nothing, would be a good way to die... How about a saber trough your stomach... It burns your nerves and you wont feel anything but you will lay down dying in your wounds and in the pain of your heart slowly shutting down and your body parts starting to go paralyzed... Wow I would rather die instantly :)


have u ever been stabbed...it feels like a light punch..the adrenaline in the figth doesnt make u feel much (of the intial hit) but then u start lose oxygen (cuz of blood lost) and u kinda lose ur breath mid fight get tired and pass out.

(most painful part is when u get struck it feels like a light punch..which doesnt hurt that much)

(i kno people who been stabbed and told me..work at hospital)

and look at what u wrote.

There is no "must kill someone" for Jedi. The only reason they would kill someone is if that someone was attacking them and was too powerful to subdue. In Ep. I, Obi-Wan kills Darth Maul because he knows there is no way he could contain Maul to be brought back to the order; killing him is the easiest, safest, and smartest thing to do. On the other hand, when Anakin beat Dooku in Ep. III, he didn't have to kill him, as Dooku was quite incapacitated at that point. It's true that he could be a bother while taking him back, but once Obi-Wan was revived, the two of them could have managed it with little trouble. That's why it was dark for Anakin to kill Dooku right then.
As I said before, ripping someone's heart out is a very dark way to kill them. It's gruesome, it's dirty, and try as they might, any Jedi who did so would either feel horribly disgusted at themselves, or start to feel that they liked it. Either alternative is one the Jedi want to avoid.


like you said... Jedi want to avoid killing but its also their duty to protect people from any kind of harm. i dont think yoda said that he must kill sidious but... obi wan said 'i will do what i must' in ep3 ;)
destroying someones heart would do the trick but i dont think jedi wants to use tricks of the sith ;)

There is a must... As we call it... If Maul had pushed Obi on his back and put a saber on his throat... Then self defense is a must... You know the sith will not hesitate so then doing something is a must... For Yoda, trying to kill Sidious was a must but so was surviving to help the jedi in the future so that is why he rather choose this way... But if he had not fallen he woul have killed sidious for it had to be done... So we can call it a must :)

Theoretically, a jedi could use the Force to rip a person's heart out of their body. However, Jedi would never do this because it is an extremely dark thing to do, and Dark Jedi would probably not do it because they'd prefer other ways of killing someone. Other ways that aren't quite so immediate, for example. When you choke someone, they feel their conciousness slip away as they need more and more oxygen that they don't have. The choker can have the satisfaction of watching the victim gasp and collapse. Comparatively, ripping someone's heart out is much too fast a death for them.

Someone said there is no forcepower strong enough for that... There are no powers really... Just different ways to ''control'' the midiclorians... Now if you just can control them well enough why couldn´t they make you stay in the air.. of course ot would be VERY hard and all but why not possible... And you can do forcethings to someone at the same planet even if far... Sidious could have choked the two sissies trough holo in ep1 so why can´t you forcepush trough someones chest and move his heart so that he dies
