The Power of a Wizard: Gandalf the Grey Breaks a Mountain (Lord of the Rings Lore and Calculation)

Hello Internet Jojo and today we are going to do a calculation from the world of Lord of the Rings, specifically a massive, mountain destroying feat, from the 1978 cartoon, one of the first ever adaptations of the LOTR. However, because, I imagine that most of you have only ever watched the Peter Jackson "Lord of the Rings" films, we should probably actually start with a bit of back story, on the characters and world itself. before we start with the math and complicatedness of this feat. I guess I could just calculated this feat it would be to short of a video and not as fun. I want to talk about Lord of the Rings dang it, and I think learning about lore and backstory is fun so now you must listen to me... Please... anyways lets get into this.
