TikTok Video: TikToker Recreates Harry Potter's Nimbus 2000
TikTok user @moshobbies posted a video where he revealed how he recreated Harry Potter's flying broom. In the video posted, he demonstrated the process of creating the Nimbus 2000.
- The first thing that he did was he drew the broom on a big wood.
- Right after drawing the broom on the wood, he carved the broom out.
- After carving, he molded the wood to make it somehow circular then set it aside for later.
- For the lower part of the broom, he gathered all the materials needed in one place.
- After gathering the materials, he stitched the broom to make it into a single piece.
- After stitching, he made two holes in the wood and attach the stitched materials to the wood.
- Since everything was in place, he trimmed the broom to make it look like the Nimbus 2000.
- Lastly, he put the name Nimbus 2000 at the end of the wood.

What Is Nimbus 2000?
According to the Harry Potter fandom, the Nimbus 2000 broomstick was part of the Nimbus Racing Broom Company's successful range of racing brooms. It was the fastest broomstick in production at the time of its release in 1991. The Nimbus 2000 comfortably surpassed its competition on the Quidditch pitch until the Nimbus 2001 superseded it as the top broomstick.
When Harry Potter joined the Gryffindor Quidditch team as the new Seeker, he received one from Minerva McGonagall. Happy Potter kept it for two years until the Gryffindor and Hufflepuff Quidditch match in November 1993. When dementors came on the pitch, Harry fell from the broom and collided with the Whomping Willow. When Harry inquired about his broomstick, Ron dug up the broken remains in the Hospital Wing, the broom then reduced to splinters.
