This video is about how efficient various reactions are at converting mass to energy (as we know from the Einstein mass-energy equivalence of E=mc^2). Antimatter is very efficient but it is not naturally-occurring. Chemical reactions like fire or explosions are very inefficient. Nuclear fission and nuclear fusion are better, but not amazing on an absolute scale. Non-rotating black holes (Schwarzschild) and rotating (Kerr) are by far the most efficient, due to their accretion disks and very small radius of their innermost stable circular orbits.

The Unreasonable Efficiency of Black Holes

With the final season of Game of Thrones right around the corner, there’s one thing everyone’s

Heck, there are even betting sites setting the odds —

Bran Stark’s in the lead at 3 to 1; while in last it’s a four way tie between The

Mountain, Tormund Giantsbane, Yara & Theon Greyjoy at 150 to 1 (which seems like a bit

Look, we can’t count cards or rig the roulette table, but we can do something even better

The mind needs books like a sword needs a whetstone

And not just Game of Thrones, but also all the sources that inspired George R.R. Martin’s

After delving into Game of Thrones’ predecessors, we’ve come up with our own method using

literature, history, and classical myths to determine who has the best shot to rule Westeros!

Honestly, we’re really just taking educated guesses but hey, the more you know!

For the purposes of this video, we’re limiting the options to characters that are actually

Which means sorry Aegon Targaryen, Patchface, Edric Storm, Jon Connington, Dick Crabb, Arianne

Martell, Harry the Heir, Willas Tyrell, Garlan Tyrell, Victarion Greyjoy, Strong Belwas,

Tyrek Lannister, and all the other characters deemed not quite HBO worthy…

But hey, there’s always a chance you could come out on top in the books… if they’re

Now, recently twenty posters were released for the new season, showing each main character

So it’s a good bet one of these characters will ultimately reign supreme.

So unless there’s some deliberate misinformation, we’re going to assume Gilly, Podrick, and

Now, our twenty contenders in the running for the Iron Throne are

Bran Stark, Daenerys Targaryen, Jon Snow, Arya Stark, Sansa Stark, Davos Seaworth, Theon

Greyjoy, Jaime Lannister, Tyrion Lannister, Samwell Tarly, Cersei Lannister, Brienne of

Tarth, Lord Varys, Euron Greyjoy, Melisandre, Grey Worm, Jorah Mormont, Missandei, Sandor

So let’s winnow down this competition, Game of Thrones style.

Welcome to this Wisecrack Edition on the end of Game Of Thrones, and spoilers are kind

of the whole point so yeah, spoilers ahead.

But before we get into that, I want to give a shout out to this video’s sponsor, Wix.

The first filter we can use is Martin’s relationship to the fantasy genre.

As many have pointed out, Game of Thrones constantly subverts the tropes of fantasy

films and novels like the chivalrous knight, the charming prince, good inevitably conquering

In Game of Thrones, the heroic do gooders get beheaded, stabbed, and stabbed again.

Prince Charming is revealed to be a sociopathic dick . And there’s no magical object that’ll

But to say that Martin is just trying to turn fantasy on it head is kind of missing the

He’s deconstructing fantasy in order to reconstruct it.

Well let’s look at what Martin has to say about one of his biggest influences: JRR Tolkien.

This was maybe my answer to Tolkien, whom, as much as I admire him, I do quibble with.

Lord of the Rings had a very medieval philosophy: that if the king was a good man, the land

We look at real history and it’s not that simple.

Tolkien can say that Aragorn became king and reigned for a hundred years, and he was wise

But Tolkien doesn’t ask the question: What was Aragorn’s tax policy??”

In a classic fantasy story, a banished princess, like say Danerys, would fly in on a dragon

and triumphantly reclaim her throne and fix all the realm’s problems.

But Game of Thrones complicates this narrative at every turn.

Even acts as unilaterally “good” as freeing slaves aren’t instantly rewarded.

Some of the former slaves WANT to go back to the fighting pits, nearby cities declare

war, and she has to deal with insurrection from former slave owners.

Essentially, Danerys has to learn the hard work of ruling.

Similarly, Jon does the right thing by taking in the free folk who are about to be turned

So, Martin wants Lord of the Rings, with a little more realism.

So how does that get us closer to knowing who wins the Iron Throne?

Well, Martin’s goal is portraying the hard work of leadership and the difficulty of heroism,

which is only a theme worth pursuing if you think leadership and heroism are important.

As much as Robb Stark getting stabbed might make us thinks that Martin is a sadist who

we think he’s trying to give us a story where victory is hard-won

It wouldn’t make sense with the themes, and it would contradict a central tenet of

Tolkien’s work, The Eucatastrophe something we’ve talked about before.

Tolkien, who also loved killing off beloved characters, coined the term eucatastrophe

to describe the intervention of the divine or an inexplicable force that lets our heroes
