Harry's Nimbus 2000 was destroyed by the Whomping Willow following a Quidditch match against Hufflepuff. The match was the first Harry played during his third year at Hogwarts (November 1993) and took place in Chapter 9 of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Harry fell of his broom when dementors guarding the school invaded the Quidditch pitch. The severe weather conditions meant that his broom was then blown into the dangerous tree.

How fast can the nimbus 2000 Harry Potter broom go?

What does nimbus 2000 mean other than Harry Potters broomstick?
The term was invented for the Harry Potter series. I suppose that the name "nimbus" is derived from nimble - "quick and light in movement or action".The term was invented for the Harry Potter series.

What was Harry Potter's very first broom stick called?
It didn't have a name, it was just named 'Toy Broomstick' in Lily Potter's letter to Sirius Black (The Deathly Hallows). Unless you mean his first real broomstick which is the Nimbus 2000.
Who was the first goblin to meet Harry Potter?
The first goblin Harry meets in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is the goblin at the desk who we never know the name of.The second goblin Harry meets is Griphook. Griphook is the same goblin who helps Harry, Ron, and Hermione break into Gringotts in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
Why did Harry break and throw the Elder Wand away?
Actually, that was something exclusive to the movie. In the book, Harry tells Dumbledore's portrait, "I'm putting the Elder Wand back where it came from." There is no indication that snapping the wand and throwing it off a cliff is putting it back where it came from. Either way, Harry does so to break its power. The wand's power comes from each owner of the wand being defeated (usually by death) so that the defeater/murderer may obtain the wand and its powers. By leaving the wand alone and living a natural life, Harry would break that pattern.
