It's too big of an egg then.
Not really. GRRM has spoken about ice dragons, wrote a novella, etc. Guarantee GRRM will have ice dragons in his novels.
I am not arguing whether if Asoiaf will have ice dragons. They are not just going to make it the poster and spoil it for the non-readers.
Easter eggs are usually small and easy to miss. This is not an easter egg, it is just a poster from a very talented fan.
That part too was dumb.
I think Jamie will be captured. Cersei will think she is dead and marry Euron. Tyrion will free Jamie and then he will be a queenslayer as well.
The size of the arrow is basically inconsequential to the difficulty of pulling the tension.
Correct. Except in order to shoot a far heavier arrow, much more force would be needed and therefore pull required.
Yeah but the arrow isnt that big.
He doesn't just pull back on the cable, it has those big handles on the side that ratchet it back, he's got all sorts of force multiplication going on there.
This would make it easier for him to get the arrow back?
This would make it easier for him to get the arrow back?
Big wheel and axle ratchets? Yeah, many many times easier. You ever use a wrench?
And yeah, I saw Jamie sinking. As I'm watching it I'm like WTF is his sinking into because it's not the little puddle they showed him fall into. If he's in deep water that is some absolute straight garbage editing. Like I get there are dragons and walking dead and all that, but now there are magical puddles that should be a few inches deep but are actually 20ft deep? They did not properly introduce the existence of magically deep puddles, imo.
You ever take a physics class? Also, he never pulls the arrow back. He loads the tension then puts the arrow in btw.
Yes. I didn't really sit and analyze the contraption that much. I just found it ridiculous. But your explanation helps and clears it up for me.
Not just, "The arrow isn't that big," like some moron, when the arrow was in fact, much, much bigger.
It isn't that big.....
It's not much bigger than the spear Jamie was charging Dany with.

You can see how big it is next to Dany compared to the spear Jamie is holding onto.
