Lol. He wears Under Armor under his armor
Doodle Studios lol i never thought about that
Ahahahahahahaha I never thought about that!
that's why it's called underarmor
At least it’s branded.
lmao
What woman think men want to wear: tuxedo What men actually want to wear: Darth Vader costume
Very true
Nah boba fett
What women also want to wear: screen accurate Vader costume
Nah beskar mando
But a cool man would wear a Rebel costume not a Vader one good guys for life!
the real costume was a two or three person routine, so this was awesome to watch. vader tho did not remove all of this daily, he had a sealed container room where he basically just removed his mask occasionally. the pain and torture of the suit made his dark side much stronger, comfortable he was not.
Wise in the ways of star wars you are.
Smell good he did not
@@chrisbellville6957 LOL, you got me on that one.
Lol the last sentence sounds like anything Yoda would say😂😂
Being 6'6" and 260 pounds, I was regularly asked to be Lord Vader for the Seattle group. Trouble was they wouldn't ask until like a day ahead of time. It was kind of a drag as the guy they would get was like only 5'11" and I'm about the same size and build as David Prowse was in the movies.
*only* 5-11

That’s a good size for Vader! I’m putting together an ANH Vader costume & I’m 6’1” (6’3” with boots) and 230lbs. I hope I can do the costume justice. Looking to get it 501st approved.
I mean the boots and the helmet would add enough to usually make the "short" guy into decently tall vader.
"My lord, Director Krennic has arrived" Vader: Gimme 10 minutes
and 24 seconds
I kinda feel bad for Vader poor dude gotta take a whole ass 10 mins or more to suit up and get ready. You already know he misses the bus all the time....no wonder he's always pissed
He doesn’t take off most of his suit daily, usually just the helmet
space_poodles r/whoosh
I Dont Get Jokes Not really, since it directly correlates with his comment. He wasn’t breaking the joke, just saying what he actually does for those who are interested.
The dislikes are star trek fans
Haha :) I am a ST fan and we have had our assess kicked by good old JJ. Anyhow I like this one
That would be Illogical my lord it would more likely be rebels. I have study the Federation and they are pacifists Lord Vader. IF the word Patack was used then we are fighting Klingons they are another thing toghter you will need my assistance. The 7th fleet is on call as needed MY lord.
the dislikes are probably for the fact that he only had the full suit on for 20 seconds
@@Thrawn1 the Klingons are alerted to our presence admiral ozzel came out of lightspeed to close to the system
I agree, master Darth Vader!
I need to study for finals but my love for Darth Vader is stronger
I can’t believe darth Vader has to go through this every day.
Yeah ok if this was close to the movie you’d cut off your legs and arm
juan cardenas 💀💀
arms*
limbs for short
Also severe burns throughout the body.
@@yoooRenegade anakin skywalker/darth Vader lost only 1 arm if he lost 2 Juan Cardenas was gonna say "arms" instead of "arm"
I feel like I just watched Darth Vader’s daily morning routine **Trooper walks in** “We have blown up the last rebel transport lord Vader” “Come on Larry get out I’m vlogging”
Rofl
No wonder Vader is always so angry! 😉
Actually, walking into Vader's chamber is prohibited, and he kills anyone who enters without permission
@@expiredcoffee7991 ever heard of a joke?
@@janmizera5778 Yes. I never even mentioned that the joke was unfunny. I was just giving a random fact.
TBH, I didn't know there was this many layers to the Vader costume. It looks a lot simpler than this... and I realize you've worked to simplify the process. That's crazy.
For all the people wondering, he put this together. It is NOT store bought.
he sounded a lot more like kylo ren with the mask on
Ren has an American accent. Vader has an English accent. May I ask, how tf?
Galactic Quasar No he mean the voice thing that is supposed to change his voice.The voice changer makes him sound like when Kylo has his Helmet on
I’ll show you THE DARK SIDE
Galactic Quasar no he doesnt they both have american
Still cool and Im sure plenty of kids don't really care. Once they see darth vader and hear something that sounds like him Im sure they are jumping through the roof in happiness.
That armor will make a fine addition to my collection.

It's weird that I'm in my mid-30s and I'm watching a guy describe how to wear a real Darth Vader costume, yet here I am.
That is awesome !!! A lot of thought and prep has gone into that and the final result is well worthy of 501 quals. Massive respect and a nice homage to the late David Prowse.
It's ironic how much better this looks than most of the "professional" versions you see at Disneyland, etc.
imagine having to wear a suit this heavy for 8 hours a day in the summer to make minimum wage
@@hippo440 Yeah, I sweat too much to cosplay, much less work in this getup.
@@hippo440 free suit
@@hippo440 hey atleast they make people happy
@@hippo440 In California and Florida, too
Now I understand Vader's heavy breathing. Wearing that suit must be hot hot hot.
LOL yeah that def part of it
Christian actually Vader is breathing like that because of him breathing all of that hot oxygen from Mustafar, he got his lungs damaged from that so he has problems breathing. But since Obi wan got the high ground he didn’t get any injuries
Christian maybe there's a cooling system in his suit?
Man's not hot - Big Shaq 2017

This is excellent! You did a FABULOUS job of doing Darth. Who doesn't ❤ the most iconic villain in cinematic history.
As an 80's kid that grew up during the massive resurgence of Star Wars popularity during the early 90's with videogames, toys etc, this is so cool to see. I literally watched either Empire or Return every day after school, for years. To say i've seen those movies hundreds of times aren't an exaggeration.
He literally became Vader when he put the helmet on.
Agentcoolguy1 sounded nothing like him
@@mysecretplace352 I'm referring more to his appearance, not his voice. Besides, changing his voice to sound exactly like Vader would be very difficult.
not "literally"
@@venomvevenom It's a hyperbole chief.
@@Agentcoolguy1 Ikr, while there have been many imitators of Vader, none of them can ever truly do the perfect imitation of James Earl Jones.
1:38 "it helps kids from seeing me" Possibly the most out of context thing ive ever heard.
LMFAO
How else he gonna kill younglings
Should've included the fact that hes talking about a balaclava
@@bobdarker519 you’re really fun at parties, huh?
Younglings
I like to think that Anakin himself spends that amount of time preparing every time he comes out of his meditation chamber
If only the rebel could have had the video of Vader’s morning routine. They wouldn’t even have to fight back. No one would have ever obey him after watching that.
before he put the helmet on I was like "ok he's still human." Then when he put it on, Darth Vader literally teleported to this universe.
He's more machine now than man; twisted and evil. -Obi Wan Kenobi

@@MarCuseus bruh
@@ccasuall dude
and then we heard him and it was dashed again. I think a soundboard with phrases would be more effective
Dudes breathing like Darth Vader without the mask on.
That was pissing me off lol
Why
Because he has the mike right next to his mouth 😒
Refer to "Vaders breathing system". Lol
Putting on the suit will do that to you
Like a happy kid in Halloween. I admire your passion. Great video.
I love cosplayers this committed. The end result always looks picture accurate
You seem to have the most important thing that others don't when it comes to Vader. Height.
Thanks!
I thought you looked too short myself. You need to be at least 6' 5" to be a good Darth Vader in my opinion. David Prowse was 6' 6" apparently. That an impressive suit though.
but before anikan became vader obi wan had the HIGH ground
I’m nearly 6’5 so if the heel on the boots are big enough I’d be the perfect height lol. Just need the costume 😂
Yes, height is crucial. Without it, you just look like a pretender. You gotta be at least a legit 6'4 barefoot to pull it off.
You only had the full suit on for 20 seconds, and the video is 10 minutes.
The shit is hot, lol.
Well, the video is called *Putting on a movie accurate Darth Vader suit*. So, it would naturally be all about him putting it on.
Lmfao
Impressive. Most impressive.
Actually the whole video because he wore the helmet for 20 seconds but suit most of the video
Is there any other character so powerful in his mere presence? Man..I am inspired to build a suit. Loved the video..well done!
Best 10 minutes of star wars related video i have watched in a bit
I love how he held the helmet while saying “Now I’m gonna grab...” He took a pause and pulled out his gloves “My Gloves”
Brooks Brigmon his gloves were under the helmet
DARB I know I just thought it was funny how it was kinda misleading
"Now I'm gonna grab..." *Jokes on you* "... my gloves."
Its like the force is forcing him to put the helmet first 😂
*Fun fact: the breathing sound doesn't come from the helmet it comes from Vader's breathing device*
Jeffy sml
But technically it's still exhaled from the helmet, as we've seen in Episode 3 when Anakin takes his first breath in the suit and it disrupts the fog
I’m a huge nerd u don’t need to tell me
it forces oxygen into him and out and he can’t control it
I like this little detail In Rogue One, when speaking to Krennic the breathing mechanism can only be heard inbetween his lines of dialogue, it feels more believable this way.
That is just BRILLIANT! Love this! Thanks for showing us mate.
I found that video accidentally (by searching for completely others) and man, you are very, very crazy - I love it! This Outfit to have for just ONE party would be great. Really, really, really great suit, I am impressed like rarely in my life.
I see the suit tortures you like the actual suit.
Yep
I'm a simple man I see lord Vader I click
Yes sir
I’ve done Vader a few times. By buddy built the costume for himself but when he got injured I had to step up. He made the undersuit for me but he helped fit his gear for me. I’m about 5 foot 10 so we used big motorcycle boots with a big heel and a lift. We use a 3 piece helmet design too with a collar and air bags for a tight fit. He came with me when we helped me into it. It felt awesome to wear it ( we use a light red tint on the lenses to obscure my eyes, and I went as far as to wear sith contact lenses). I enjoyed the charity events as Vader. To this day myself and my buddy switch off. One of us dresses as a Grand Moff, the other as Vader ( the grand Moff is the handler and watches for costume errors that can break immersion) hopefully after the pandemic we can go back to making kids faces light up
Gotta hand it to you, probably the best I’ve seen! 💯
Girls: He's probably cheating Boys:
That's hilarious
Lame.
Lmao
200th like
Unfortunately, I'm "a little short for a Stormtrooper" and I have no business with a Vader suit, but I can appreciate the work that goes into these suits. Great Job!!
So sick!! Love the attention to detail. Good stuff! Definitely subscribing.
I think I’ve seen this video 10 times now. Every time it gets recommended to me I watch it.
I want to put this on just to say “I find your lack of faith disturbing”
When wearing the costume at Comic-Con, expect little kids to come up and start pushing your buttons.
Physical and emotional
That's when you pretend that the suit is malfunctioning to see the kids laugh
@oBi WaN KeNoBi "master Skywalker, there are too many of them what are we going to do? "
This is awesome... Im in the process of derveloping a Vader suit for me... I cant wait. This costume is well built and amazing....
awesome. I loved your McDonalds visit. Getting a happy meal was GENIUS!
3:26 breathing as Darth Vader too ! Thumbs up mate !
Next Star Wars spin off: darth Vader and the bathroom challenge
His pp was burned off in ROTS
Bluenser What's that?
This happened in Robot Chicken Star Wars 😂
That's an awesome costume, maybe the most accurate Vader costume I've seen.
Thanks ! Incredible video! For the costume really I give a mark of 20/20.
Thank-you to the 501st, for everything they do for the community. You folks are the true heroes of any saga!
This is Vader’s regular routine in the morning, pretty casual
Who would have EVER thought that some villain from a movie that came out nearly 50 years ago would still be so iconic today? Star Wars was truly revolutionary in not just cinema, but in culture as well.
Thank you so much for the tutorial! Now I know exactly how I can put on my own movie accurate Darth vader costume. Because of course I have one laying around
Where can I get a movie accurate Darth Vader cosplay??
I can just imagine my 6’ 7” self, getting in one of these suits and scaring all the children😂😂
The man that wore the suit originally was 6'6"
Jack Stephens that’s awesome I did not know that
@@demonative9945 No worries
I wanna see it
Id kill to wear a darth vader suit but im only about 6,2
Bro I started like breathing harder watching you put all that on geez it looks like a mini workout. But very cool! I would say my favorite thing is definitely the pants+boots. Wonderful costume and amazing commentary!
Never watched your videos but somehow clicked on this and watched all of it im not even into cosplay or anything like that great video
That is awesome!!!
Its cool
THEBODYPRACTICE
Wish I was tall enough to be Darth Vader.. Guess I’ll have to settle for being Dark Helmet instead lol!
Isnt that from spaceballs = rick moranis DarkHelmut
john dean Yup
Mark Hamill is around 170 cm (5 7 in barbarian measurements).Sons are usually taller than their fathers so Anakin should be around 165-175 cm realistically. (except if Padme was evok sized)
@@roberth4395 I think the suit makes him taller anyway saying that both of anikans legs were cut off and palpatine wanted to make Darth Vader intimidating so he might have giving ani an extra foot or 2
@@roberth4395 i dont think thats how height works man
I remember 501st Legion had a vader during the winter fest. He had a very realistic voice system. It was awesome.
I NEED THAT COSTUME! I USED TO HAVE A DARTH VADER COSPLAY WHEN I WAS 10 YEARS OLD!
Very nice! If I had the height this would be my number one costume, but I have to settle for Boba Fett.
I like Fett. That is an awesome costume. I really love standing next to a fett in costume. Vader and Boba go hand in hand. Two BA characters
Your absolutely right on that one. It's taking me awhile to put it together. Like you said it's not cheap. A piece here a piece there, but once together the circle will be complete :)
Warlord2029 same
Warlord2029 I'm 6 '6" no costume fits me 😆
James Gutierrez wasn't the actor that played darth Vader 6"6
I absolutely love this suit, it looks so damn accurate to the movies, I really do wish I had a costume exactly like this very one.
It is exactly accurate to the Return of the Jedi version Thanks!
@@alaskavader7317 Where can I buy it?
@@alaskavader7317 I'd like to know where to buy it too
That is so sick!! Defo gonna go as Vader for Halloween
I did see Darth Vader at my Local Comic Con in Rochester hosted by the 501st Legion. I actually got to duel with him with the lightsabers. It was awesome.
Sorry you need 40 more hours game time to watch this video

Carefull not to choke on your aspirations, Director. (Love that line, by far my favourite!)
Lovely suit! I had the very special honour of meeting the real Darth Vader in the original suit at a toy launch as a kid, it was for a shop that sold the figures in Newport, Gwent. David Prowse was there and a huge crowd of people came to see him. I was a small kid and my aunt being very cheeky pushed her way right to the front with me as she knew i was Star Wars obsessed, my mother has a photo somewhere of me and my sister stood with Vader, with his hands on our heads lol. I recall i was too intrigued by his lightsaber on his hip and the box on his chest to be scared lol, i reached up and touched them lol. I'm 6 ft 2" these days but Vader towered over us in the pic back then lol!
While watching this, I randomly got the feeling that he would say something like “you don’t know the power of the dark side” Must have been the force.
The 501st does amazing work for the community, glad you're a part of such a great group of guys and gals.
Being in a Vader costume like that must be an amazing feeling
So freakin' kool!!! Awesome man!
Wait , your face isn't messed up like my Lord Vader *Long live the empire*
Oh it's not just the face. He litterally lost everything besides his upper torso and head
Seems like Darth Vader’s heavy breathing is down to being knackered from putting the suit on!
This is the best Darth Vader suit I’ve ever seen
This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen
Dang would have been perfect if he added smoke effects and asked, “Where is Padme?”
Imagine need to go toliet after wearing all of this (Edited:First time got this many likes.Thank you guys)
don't worry, leather pants don't absorb liquid very well, just pee and it will go straight down to the boots, empty them after you're done.
@@Skilow it doesnt make better when people watch peed your pants
@MobileGamingGod same thing but it stays in the pants
@@Skilow wow so many people dont get ur jke wtf
The force will help sustain any desire to urinate.
Who knew Darth was so dammed adorable under his uniform.
Damn awesome Dark!🤙🏽💫👊🏽
Absolutely stunning! When you put the helmet on I got goosebumps. Was great to see your process too. Instantly subscribed and I'm about to go through your other videos too.
“Sometimes you need a little ‘force’ to get things started” Oh boy. How right you are
That looks sick
I am buying this as my winter outfit.
Imagine how much money he spent on that whole suit.

Thank you so much for your video! Making a costume for my kid and this was extremely helpful
That is incredible! You should really be the Disney Darth Vader at Galaxy’s Edge.
My body temperature went up 10 degrees just by watching him put on so many clothes. Not to mention the leather stuff. Dude must have been baking

Thank you I needed help with the movie accurate darthvader suit I definitely have
Jake is very good to see you again on KZhead keep up the good work and keep the Darth Vader suit up coming
Thanks Eric
No, his figure is just smaller. The original Vader was a body builder, so the helmet was proportioned to the body.
I pity Anakin. He has to wear all this gear with robot limbs. Poor guy
Robot limbs make him super strong and faster, plus the force.
@@dustinakadustin He's physically stronger but slower and less mobile, he's also a fraction as powerful due to losing so much tissue.
