@@elijahspencer-burt967 yeah!! i can really imagine that its maybe skull of Meleys 🤔🤔😥😥 but they were told its even a more legendary dragon skull... Balerion..History can be told in many ways... many lies. good idea its other dragon''s skull and everyone was lied to.
Definitely. His teeth were supposedly as long as swords. Those are a daggers at best. Most of the dragons in HOTD have heads bigger than what they show here. If he's significantly bigger than Vhagar, then his skull would have been as big as a decent sized house.
Funny how Qyburn explains to Cersei who Balerion was as if she hasn't been living in the red keep for over 10 years and hadn't already seen the skull like a hundred times
@@LoneWolf-mu3xm @LoneWolf-mu3xm Cersei didn't respect anything. I think it was more of an attempt to get it through her head that dragons would be a genuine threat to her. And they were.
also I think it's such bs that the Lannisters got the Red Keep. It just annoys me. I know the Starks prefer the north anyway but.. it still bugs me lol
I really do think the cannibal eventually grew bigger than Balerian. He was the oldest and largest of the wild dragons, and he continued to live as a wild dragon after the dance of the dragons
Yeah I think it's possible. And we don't know what happened to Cannibal. He just disappeared from Dragonstone, so he likely lived on for many year. I'm very interested in seeing what they do with him on House of the Dragon.
@@reelworld1 I hope they show him, and atleast show where he went after the dance of the dragons ended. Does fire and blood speak about where he went or what happened to him after the dance
the idea he died of old age to me is absurd the video doesn’t say what actually happened to him he came back with 9ft long and unlike his other scars wasn’t healing with this wound he is then after being “free range” his whole life confined to the dragon put, and quite possibly he may have had the same parasites in him as the girl
It just blows my mind the targarian family was lower middle class. And had balerion. Makes you wonder how big the dragons were with the upper classes of valaria
You must remember, Balerion was just a baby dragon in the time of Old Valyria. Also, the Targaryens were said to only have 5 dragons, it’s stated somewhere that amongst the 40 dragon lord families, they had over 300 dragons. So yea, factoring all that in, it stands to reason why the Targaryens weren’t very big in the time of Old Valyria compared to the other dragon lords
It's actually in development now at HBO. They have the Knight of the Seven Kingdoms series that will most likely premiere in 2025. And it appears that Aegon's Conquest will then be the follow-up show to House of the Dragon.
I thought that Daenerys and Drogon's story is similar to Aegon's story. Daenerys is a conquerer and Srogon said to be the second coming of the Black dread. Her journey is, in a way similar to Aegon's.
I think people were scared of trying to claim Balerion, but Aegon knew he needed major power to conquer the 7 kingdoms (well 6 technically). So he took the risk.
Always found it interesting too that Viserys only claimed Balerion and never had another. He was leery of dragons after. It's as if he sensed the power, even in and older Balerion, and he shyed away from dragons after.
@@reelworld1do you think that Viserys could have claimed another dragon after Balerion died? There’s no documentation of a rider being able to claim more than one dragon.
@@JamesDeBall As long as the rider's dragon is dead, they can claim another dragon. There was a deleted scene from Season 1 where Daemon was urging Viserys to claim Vhagar.
@@florians9949 Disney is in the veeeeery early stages of making a TV show with Paolini as co-writer and producer. But yeah, I read they're having trouble finding a showrunner, so it might not happen anyway.
Just a minor correction. He was big enough that he could swallow an Aurochs, not a cow. Aurochs, now extinct, were far bigger than domestic cattle. They could be up to 1,500kg vs a holstein milk cow (the black and white ones) is maximum 580kg. Aurochs height at the shoulder was up to 220cm vs a Holstein up to 165cm. Finally an Aurochs horns were up to 107cm each, vs a Holstein milk cow, if not dehorned, up to approx 30cm each (other modern breeds of cattle can grow longer horns, eg Highland cattle and Texas longhorn cattle).
The wounds Balerion received when he went too Valaria weren't "Minor" whatever attacked The Black Dread almost killed him, in the lore its said Balerion never truly recovered from those wounds
@@jacksutton2408 Destroyed Valyria believed to be a cursed place filled with demons and ghosts/ Apparent to what happened with Balerion, its not that far from truth.
I heard Balerion was so massive that he put a shadow and covered the entire Kings Landing area. That's how massive he was! Vhagar comes second but I can't imagine how massive Balerion was because Vhagar doesn't really cover Kings Landing. And all the Skulls they used in GoT and in Season 1 of the House of Dragons were small. Balerion was also smarter than Vhagar and he has more war experience than Vhagar. Just imagine having a dragon like that. I can see why Aegon the Conqueror united the kingdoms. Who would want to mess with him and Balerion 😆
Tbf, Dorne did mess with him and while they all got burned to a crisp 10 times over, they basically had a Mantra where it doesn't matter how often the dragons come, they'll rebuild and endure. Dorne is WILD.
@@adrianreichelt7057 Yeah Dorne doesnt get enough Credit. While 6 Kingdoms fell to 3 Dragons, Dorne slayed 1 of the 3 Original Targaryan Dragons and let the other 2 waste a decade without gaining any ground in Dorne.
George has left it a little nebulous as to their lifespan. He has pointed out that if they're housed in the dragonpit that it can impact their size and longevity. And that's where Balerion spent his latter days. The Cannibal is the real mystery, a wild dragon that was never claimed, as far as we know. He could have been much older. I'm interested in seeing what they do with him on House of the Dragon.
Keep in mind we also don't know exactly when Balerion was born. He was alive when the Targs came to Dragonstone in 114 BC, and died in 94 AC, but we don't know how old he was when he left Valyria.
The latest behind the scenes footage from House of the Dragon season 2 seems to confirm that before Aegon the Conqueror, Daenys the Dreamer was Balerion's rider
apparently Daenys the dreamer was the first rider of Balerion, that’s how he was transported to dragonstone. However I don’t know what the source for that is
It was revealed in a House of the Dragon behind the scenes feature a couple of weeks ago. George hasn't confirmed it as canon, but I would assume he's onboard with it.
Aegon's Conquest is moving forward at HBO. The next spinoff will be the Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (Dunk and Egg story) which will probably come out next year. With House of the Dragon set for 4 seasons, we should see the Aegon's Conquest right series after it.
hes definitely much older than 208 as its mentioned that vhagar is about the size balerion was DURING the conquest which means he must have been alive well before he was brought to dragonstone just before the doom, as its mentioned he was already of a rideable size. imagine how massive balerion was at the end of his life if that is the case, as he wouldve had more time to grow larger than vhagar. as we see in the show vhagar, whilst being massive and lumbering is not slowing down or weakening due to her age in the show or the novels. if her and caraxes hadnt killed each other i reckon she would probably still be alive for at least another 100 years
If we ever get the final books it'll be interesting to see what Martin does with Drogon. Like Aegon, Dany has 3 dragons with Drogon filling the Balerion role as you said.
You know what would be AAAAWESOME..? like a mini series of each dragon´s POV. ( they may or may not speak.. but it would be interesting to have them speak in High Valirian )... How can we reach the producers and suggest this idea jhahah
I think an animated series based on the dragons would be fun. I know HBO was considering doing one on the sea travels of Corlys, but it hasn't been green lit yet. People would love an animated show on the ASOIAF dragons. Now we just have to pitch the idea....haha
Balerion speaking high valerian to henry cavil would be 10/10, I think Henry Cavill would be perfect cast for the conqueror and also Prince Rhaegar, they are branch of same family so same actor playing in 2 different people would be acceptable, also Tom Hardy playing young Robert Baratheon would be killer of a cast
That's going to be one of the next spinoffs. We'll get the Knight of the Seven Kingdoms one in a couple of years, and then after House of the Dragon concludes Aegon's Conquest will be the next series.
It's in development now at HBO, and should be the next series after House of the Dragon. We will get The Knight of the Seven Kingdoms in 2025, which they're saying will run 3 seasons.
I know if to point out one thing he was not unscathed he was severely wounded when he returned balerian had a 6-ft gas on his left side supposedly from something even bigger than him
Yeah it's strange. I uploaded this video months ago, and it didn't have that problem then. I noticed comments over the last week and finally went in to check on it, and the editor showed a huge amplification on the end of the track. So I just trimmed that out now. Thanks.
Some think George might pick up this thread in a future novel. I imagine The Cannibal could've flown to Old Valyria, but that didn't work out so well for Balerion.
He did have an open wound and some scars, but he wasn't diminished by it and was able to fly Aerea back. He lived another 40 years after it, whereas she died shortly after their arrival. What's interesting is what sort of creature could've even gotten any damage in on a dragon like Balerion. Would love to see them do a series on Valyria at some point, where they depict what happened there.
@@derek5310it has been known this is the true rival of Dragons and in lore to my knowledge the only thing worse than a dragon would be a alpha firewyrm.. I believe this would eventually be what greyworm would run into considering where he took Danny's army in GOT and pretty much the dred would only lose to that or an alpha ice dragon..
Obviously, because of set designs and budgets, they couldn’t make his skull the appropriate size it canonically would be, because Cersei would barely come up to the size of one of his smaller canines if they were being size accurate
In the recent House of the Dragon battle Meleys created an explosion when her body landed. So they might be so combustible when they're dead that they have to let them decay.
It is AI, there are few other ones in the video too. There's a limited amount of usable Balerion artwork, and I didn't want to repeat stuff so I made a few of them.
I don't think the thing ever asked is what did they do with Balerion after he died? Did they just leave his massive body where it was until it decayed into just bones? lol

Even though balerion was the biggest dragon, drogon did a lot of damage to kings landing and the lannisters deserved what they got they weren't the rightful rulers, the targaryen's were. Fire and blood, always.

Yeah it's strange. I uploaded this video months ago, and it didn't have that problem then. I noticed comments over the last week and finally went in to check on it, and the editor showed a huge amplification on the end of the track. So I just trimmed that out now. Thanks.
Even though balerion was the biggest dragon, drogon did a lot of damage to kings landing and the lannisters deserved what they got they weren't the rightful rulers, the targaryen's were. Fire and blood, always.
BC ?? There is "BC" in game of thrones?
Yes, BC stands for Before Conquest (Aegon's Conquest).
The cannibal was bigger as he was there before and after ballerion spanning almost a thousand years and might still be alive for all we know
I'm really looking forward to seeing what they do with the Cannibal on House of the Dragon.

Balerion: Hi! You wanna ride me?
Aerya: You killed my dad
Balerion: Yes! Sooooo you wanna ride me?
Aerya: Hell Yeah
Balerion: Let's go for a ride
Aerya: Where are we going?
Balerion: Old Valyria
Aerya: Yaaaay.........wait what?
Balerion could defeat him I think
Can anyone make an AI dragon drone?
Balerion was just too much makes no sense that that beast is that big. I mean my goodness! I was already impressed with vhgar's size then you tell me there's a dragon double veghars size smh
The Aegon's Conquest series is in development so we'll likely get to see Balerion in a few years.
@reelworld1 Did vhgar ever battle alongside balerion ? I mean, vhgar alone is enough but them together omg
@@thehotboy005 Yes they did during Aegon's Conquest. Then it was Balerions, Vhagar and Meraxes. During the Dornish wars it was Balerion and Vhagar again.
@reelworld1 omg wtf talk about fire and brimstone... nothing but ash
