As season 7 of Game of Thrones nears its end, the showmakers gave fans the best of what the show is all about. Episode 6 'Beyond the Wall' was one of the most exciting episodes till date. The episode had everything - a possible feud between Sansa and Arya, a high-on-testosterone fight sequence with the army of the dead, beginning of love between 'Dany' and Jon Snow, and perhaps the most talked about moment of this episode - the Night King claiming one of the dragons. R.I.P!
Despite the episode leaking 5 days before its official airing (thanks to HBO's own mistake), the social media obsession didn't die down one bit as both 'Game of Thrones' and 'Night King' trended on Twitter.
Twitter couldn't stop talking about that insane ice spear throw by the Night King. It was so good that it even got attention from the US Olympic Team.
Anyone have the Night King's contact info so we can recruit him to throw javelin? #GameOfThrones pic.twitter.com/7uUiEDL1xs

The Night King should be in Avengers in place of Hawkeye

The thought of Drogon and Rhaegal crying and being depressed about losing their brother makes me wanna die. #gameofthrones

While the episode was packed with action, some things just didn't make any sense. Twitter had lots of pertinent questions that we would like answers to!
Where does the army of the dead get insanely long chains to pull a dragon? Is there a Walmart north of the wall? #GameOfThrones

Man, the ravens in Westeros must have upgraded to Amazon Prime. #GameOfThrones
