10 More Unbelievable Star Wars Facts That Are Somehow True
6. Yoda Died With Qui-Gon's Cloak Wrapped Around Him
While they may not have always seen eye-to-eye, particularly when it came to the training of a certain Anakin Skywalker, Jedi Masters Qui-Gon Jinn and Yoda were still very close pals.
Qui-Gon would eventually help guide Yoda as he learned how to become a Force Ghost in the time after his death in Episode I - The Phantom Menace. But his presence could actually still be secretly felt many years later when the son of Anakin Skywalker went to train with the little green legend.
You know that blanket Yoda is seen getting comfy underneath moments before he himself passed away in Episode VI - Return of the Jedi? Well, as noted in the From a Certain Point of View "There is Another" story, Yoda actually used Jinn's Jedi cloak to create it.
For years it was just accepted that this was probably nothing more than a battered piece of cloth Yoda had just grabbed on his way to Dagobah all those years ago. Unbelievably, though, and after a bit of retconning, it turns out this was actually a secret connection to the events of the prequels hiding in plain sight.
