The Science Behind Bending AKA Why M. Night's View on Firebending is Wrong

[sidepocket_pro]

This is an old post that was rejected by the racebending and avatar_fans so since people have been asking here I am reposting it to my LJ.

P.S. I am not a physics major holding any degree. This is all merely based on some observations and my general knowledge of science. You have been warned.So basically, after spending many hours watching the show just marveling over

I'm with sidepocket on this. I think the benders have barely scratched the surface of what they are truly capable of. I also think they are moving at a snails pace with it. All the experimenting that went on in the original and it only spanned a year? They had the old lady with the blood-bending, Toph with the metal-bending, combustion dude, Iroh and his lightning, Azula (somehow) was the only fire-bender to make blue fire, and the only thing that carried over so far is metal-bending, and lightning. (I have only seen 3 episodes of the new show.)

There should have been more experimentation...
