There is no other fantasy universe on Earth that is more intricate and more thoroughly imagined than Lord of the Rings. From the ingenious mind of J.R.R. Tolkien, an entire world was built including languages, history, and multiple fictional cultures that have captivated audiences for decades. But for those of us who are standard fans (and by that, I mean those of us who crushed every visual form of media we could surrounding the lands and lore of Mordor), what else is there in this vastly, in-depth universe that we don't know about?
Apparently, there's a lot of obscure LOTR lore that would shake the foundations of Minas Tirith harder than a battering ram– and might even change the way you look at your beloved Hobbitses. So if you've ever wanted to have your beloved Shire shaken up, scroll onward to read some of the craziest Tolkien trivia. And don't worry, Vigo Mortensen's broken big toe barely even made this intriguingly obscure list.
