This may perhaps ruin the magic of Game of Thrones for its fans, but those dragons you see in the show? Yeah, they’re not real – shocking, right? In fact, before CGI effects are added into the show in its production stages, they look almost exactly like those q-tip sticks used in the Gladiators TV show.
