You are falling out of context here!
This thread is Smaug vs Drogon, not LoTR vs GoT!
Stick to the thread please.
Drogon 10 years from now devours Smaug.

Well, thats a separate debate but yeah... when you are the size of 3 Mount Everest sized volcanoes, you get to eat whatever you want. 🙂Spoiler:Sooo yeah 🙂
The Mighty Ancalagon the Black!
Lets talk a bit about LoTR fire drakes shall we!?
First of all, LoTR Dragons are easily oversized by they destruction they cause when they "fall". Samething applies for Ancalagon which ISNT the size of the Everest nor bigger than Thangorodrim's mountains.
Let me explain. Tolkien likes to be very Poetic when writting. When he said that Ancalagon's fall broke Thangorodrim it must NOT be taken literally. Instead, Tolkien actually meant that by the Time Anacalagon died, the destruction left was enough to devastate the Mountains.
A similar thing happened with Smaug. In the books it is said that Smaug's fall destroyed the entire Lake town (Full on the town he fell. His last throes splintered it to sparks and gledes), but this DOESNT mean that Smaug was the size of Lake Town; he was much more smaller!
Another thing that disclaims Ancalagon's size is that he had to fit in Angband. So, its for sure he wasnt the size of a mountain or bigger than Thangorodrim's.
Now am not saying he isnt bigger than Balerion! But the size of Everest is a mass exaggeration.

Lol, the Long Night can las generations! We might see him 20 years older!!!
Shouldnt the OP be moderating the thread and not taking active and even personal discussions of his thread?
Lol
On top of the size difference, and the fact that smaug has a diamond waistcoat. I was always under the impression that smaugs fire was a alot more powerful. His fire is said to be able to melt nigh indestructible rings of power. We know aegon used dragon fire to melt stone, and the theory is it was used to make valyrian steel. But for all we know dragon fire cant melt the steel but just went into its construction. All in all to many points in smaugs favor.
Edit: I know i came in late i just wanted to say my piece lol.
