How do they do it? They're so huge. And heavy? Do they have hollow bones, like birds? I get that they're based on dinosaurs, so they should actually have feathers, right?

I was watching the GoT trailer and damn that dragon's the size of a B52 Stratofortress but going the speed of a hang glider. How is that possible?

I get that the conventional answer is "magic" but, like, what kind of magic? Could you cut off the magic part that makes dragons fly and use it to, say, make your boat fly with some sails on it? And if it's magic, why are baby dragons all awkward? Shouldn't the magic just make them fly right away? For the size/bulk they are and the land speed they're going, they'd need some kind of anti-gravity field. Is it in their horns?

If they're magic, why do dragons grow at all? Why don't they just hatch as adults? Why do they have sex and lay eggs and not just clone themselves? They're magic.

If dragons are immune to fire, does that mean they're immune to all heat? Could you coat one in oil and light it on Wildfire and just have it roll around on the battlefield? Could it carry lava in its bare talons? Could it fly into a volcano, pick up some lava, and go on bombing runs with it? If they're immune to heat, does that make them immune to all temperatures or just ones above a certain point? Could you freeze a dragon? Is the whole dragon immune, or just the scales? Could you skin a dragon and be fire-proof?

Moreover, how is Daenerys fire-proof? Could you skin her and be fire-proof?

Because if I was some kind of fantasy warlord, I'd skin her to be fire-proof. Why didn't more people do this to the Targs if they're really immune to fire?

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmagicmagicmagicmagicmagicmagicmagicmagic

Whenever you notice something like that, a wizard did it.

I assume for Daenerys, it's a form of magic.

As for the rest, I found this "documentary" to be fun, in regards to explanations on the "how do dragons...?" side of things.

It's also on youtube.
