Dec 28, 2014 at 18:13 comment added user16696 @acolyte two years later, LOK Book 3 shows an air bender flying/levitating/unbound by gravity, as the advanced airbending form. The vacuum bending is something any airbender could do, you know, if they weren't pacifists. He airbends the air out of the Earth Queen's and Korra's lungs.
Jul 3, 2012 at 14:19 comment added acolyte @Iszi my roomate came up with a somewhat interesting idea for that: vacuum bending. bending the ABSCENCE of air.
Jan 30, 2012 at 17:56 comment added Iszi @OrigamiRobot - I believe lightning-bending is effectively just an advanced (and rarely mastered) form of fire-bending. Similarly, I recall that Toph taught herself metal-bending and Katara was able to master blood-bending. We may never know what the advanced level for air-bending would be, since the Airbenders are effectively extinct.

Jan 30, 2012 at 15:49 comment added Origami Robot What about an open minded person such as Iroh? We already know he adapted waterbending techniques to create a method for redirecting lightning.
