imagine vernon dursley actually knocking voldemort out when he comes to kill harry
Imagine Vernon Dursley, the grumpy, mustached drill company director, the man who hates magic and adores bacon—accidentally knocks out Lord Voldemort. It would be hilarious, bizarre, and also totally universe-breaking. Let’s explore it as a full-on absurd alternate reality with some epic implications.
Voldemort arrives at the Potter home in Godric’s Hollow to kill baby Harry.
He kills James.
He kills Lily.
He raises his wand…
But just before the Killing Curse hits—
Voldemort collapses. Unconscious.
Vernon Dursley charges in through the front door—wearing pajamas, holding a fireplace poker, and red in the face.
Vernon:
"Local Man Knocks Out Dark Wizard with Lawn Ornament"

Titled: “Defeated by a Bloke Named Vernon”
When Voldemort returns years later and sees Vernon again…

Scene: Seconds Later

He kicks Voldemort’s wand away like it’s a dead rat. Baby Harry blinks from his crib.“YOU! Get away from my nephew, you freaky cloaked nutjob!”
What Happens Next?
The Headline:
"Local Man Knocks Out Dark Wizard with Lawn Ornament"— The Daily Prophet, front page
Vernon Becomes a Legend
- The wizarding world is stunned.
- Vernon Dursley becomes an accidental magical hero, hailed as The Muggle Who Defeated Voldemort.
- He gets a chocolate frog card. His pose? Holding a shovel and looking confused.
Dumbledore is Baffled
- “It seems, Minerva, that… brute force may in fact be a kind of ancient magic.”
Voldemort’s Wand Writes a Memoir
Titled: “Defeated by a Bloke Named Vernon”
Harry Grows Up VERY Differently
- Vernon loves the fame, and suddenly takes great pride in raising Harry—especially when witches and wizards visit just to shake his hand.
- Dudley becomes jealous that Harry’s scar gets more fan mail than his birthday.
- Petunia still hates magic but secretly collects clippings of Vernon in wizard newspapers.
Voldemort’s Return? …Complicated.
When Voldemort returns years later and sees Vernon again…Voldemort:
“No. Not him. Anyone but him.”
Vernon (older, louder, holding a tennis racket):
“OY! YOU AGAIN?”
Crack.
Voldemort disapparates out of sheer panic.
Final Thought
This version of the story is:- Hilarious
- Deeply British
- And somehow a metaphor for how normal people doing bold, stupid things sometimes break entire systems of power.
Would you like:
- A short scene of Vernon at Hogwarts giving a guest lecture on “Muggle Defense Against the Dark Arts”?
- A Harry/Vernon bonding moment?
- Or a mock-interview with Rita Skeeter about "The Vernon Incident"?
