Here is the troll scene:

Harry then did something that was both very brave and very stupid: He took a great running jump and managed to fasten his arms around the troll's neck from behind. The troll couldn't feel Harry hanging there, but even a troll will notice if you stick a long bit of wood up its nose, and Harry's wand had still been in his hand when he'd jumped -- it had gone straight up one of the troll's nostrils.

Howling with pain, the troll twisted and flailed its club, with Harry clinging on for dear life; any second, the troll was going to rip him off or catch him a terrible blow with the club.

Hermione had sunk to the floor in fright; Ron pulled out his own wand -- not knowing what he was going to do he heard himself cry the first spell that came into his head: "Wingardium Leviosa!"

The club flew suddenly out of the troll's hand, rose high, high up into the air, turned slowly over -- and dropped, with a sickening crack, onto its owner's head. The troll swayed on the spot and then fell flat on its face, with a thud that made the whole room tremble.

Harry got to his feet. He was shaking and out of breath. Ron was standing there with his wand still raised, staring at what he had done.

 

He jumped ON the troll.

Jesus Christ. An 11 year old kid jumped on top of a 10 foot tall mountain troll and you're not impressed?

 

No one is sucking Harry's dick.

He is a talented Wizard with impressive reflexes and an ability to achieve great things.

No one ever said he was the second coming of Merlin.

 

Your lack of self awareness is honestly quite impressive.

 

He didn't jump on it. He grabbed onto it by the neck which is probably 2 feet lower than the top of its head. Therefore it's 8 ft off the ground. The average 11 year old is 4'7" which makes the difference between the troll and Harry 3'5". The average standing reach of a 4'7" person is 6'1". That means, he most likely jumped 24 inches after running. That's wholly impossible for an 11 year old.

That vertical is something that Division 1 athletes or even professional basketball players have. Its impossible for an 11 year old. Its just another example of JKR not being able to do numbers, not impressive athleticism.

 

By the powers of our recent upgrade, we can multi-quote!

But wait, it gets better! Did you know that 'to ever live' includes literally everyone who's ever lived? Including Merlin?

In conclusion: You're a fucking moron.

 

I already said that I was exagerrating.

And yes, Harry does have world-class reflexes.

 

World class =/= best in the world =/= best in history.

You lack reading comprehension. Oh wait, no, because that's not what reading comprehension means you moron.

 

Harry is a Wizard, though.

 

Since when were wizards superhuman?

 

I responded to a poster, shortly after making the "Knight post", that I was using hyperbole.

An no, I never said Harry was Merlin or even Dumbledore. I repeatedly stated that wasn't the case.

 

Look, she's trying.

 

The average Wizard lives 140 years, and is immune to all muggle ailments, including poison.

Read Pottermore.

 

Missing a y there.

 

No, it simply means he can jump really high.

Wizards are Superhumans - They can't have the physical abilities of Superman or anyone like him. But we're shown throughout the series that they have superior physical and mental abilities.

No muggle would survive a single day in Azkaban.

 

So if they're superhuman, why is it impressive that Harry jumped onto its neck again?
