Vader's Resporator

Did anyone else notice that when ADM Piett informs Lord Vader that the Emperor "commands you to make contact", his (Vader's) resperater cuts off like he caught his breathe.

Also, in RotJ, Vader breathes and talks at the same time. Does he not breathe through his nose anymore? Is that what killed him after the Emperor's force lightening strike him? If he doesn't breathe through his nose, then what is the extend of Vader's injuries?

 

vader's breatheing is controlled by some sort of pump. all he really does is walked and move his arms and head. he doesn't eat, breathe on his own or anything. im assuming.

Bib will know

I have activated the Bib beacon

 

Vader has to eat something. How else would keep his organic half (quarter) alive? He must eat something, or he would starve to death/dehydrate. Anakin must survive, or else all the powers from the Sith would leave the droid that is Darth Vader.

 

well, i dont think he physically eats and drinks. he probably plugs a tube into himself. and yes, the tube leads to a large container labeled blue milk.

 

Does he ever go to the bathroom??? Man I wanna hear what he sounds like on the John...

 

The suit is proply a positive presure device.And in jedi he is soing aginal respirations.

 

i find it derrogatory when the latrine is referred to as the John.

 

lmao John! ok ok...The Crapper

 

you know, John Crapper invented the lavatory device, and since "Crapper" is linked to John, i will have to ask kindly that you don't use that name either.

 

Sigh Goldfish Grave?

 

i can live with crapper

i was just egging you on

 

I dunno I like Goldfish Grave

 

Can the defication talk please.

 

We English working-class refer to it as "the bog".

 

Can the defication talk please.

some would argue, that is defication talk, because of the word can.



but vader's eating, drinking and ahem...toilet duties, are probably all done by tubes of some sort

 

ewwww So he has a tube up his anus?

 

you have a better hypothesis?

 

The Bib Beacon isn't working! Maybe he's being held captive by a fiendish enemy!

 

"I turned it off! I don't wanna talk to her!"

 

John, I am pretty sure that the man's name was Tom Crapper. I have always wondered if there are still any Crappers around, they might have changed their name for certain reasons.

Sir Thomas Crapper Real or Myth - Plumbing History

This is mentioned on the above website, but T. Crapper didn't invent the toilet, he just improved upon it and gave us the version that we know of now.

Just a rant: I go away for a while and I have to select my icon again, gosh.

in RotJ, Vader breathes and talks at the same time.

For the 13,876,908th time....Vader does not breathe and talk at the same time. Vader talks while his life support gear operates.

Vader's trademark metallic wheezing is the sound of his equipment...not his actual breathing.

 

"I turned it off! I don't wanna talk to her!"

Bib, I am not a female.

There was a noble origin to the water closet in its earliest days. Sir John Harrington, godson to Queen Elizabeth, set about making a "necessary" for his godmother and himself in 1596. A rather accomplished inventor, Harrington ended his career with this invention, for he was ridiculed by his peers for this absurd device. He never built another one, though he and his godmother both used theirs.

I think that is why it is called "John"

Vader's trademark metallic wheezing is the sound of his equipment...not his actual breathing.

So, if we hear the breathing/wheezing as he is talking, but there are pumps that do it, wouldn't DV have to sound like Stevie from "Malcolm in the Middle?"

 

In the ESB duel Vader's breathing device thingy is sometimes silent. Shhh, be vewy vewy quiet, I'm hunting Skywalkews, hah-hah-hah.

However, if Vader learned to play didgeridoo, he can talk and breathe at the same time.

And then there's this thing called inward singing! Just check out Tenacious D and you'll know...

 

I bet Vader can pull some awesome bong hits.
