*Could* have doesn't mean he definitely would have. It's still very unlikely; he had no firebending training *at all* at that point, and you have to remember that the Fire Nation soldiers were all boosted by the comet. The Avatar State is no guarantee of success at all: hence what happened at the end of Book Two. And he had considerably more experience and training at that point than a century prior.

By the way Aang has his tats before they tell him he's the avatar, meaning he was already considered a master of the element, gyatso took out several fire benders with him, Aang genuinely could have survived the massacre, especially given he'd most likely have entered the avatar state if not to protect himself to protect the kthers

Ruff said "The last thing you want is a mutiny among fire benders" I'ma argue the LAST thing you want is a mutiny among water benders, given the fact that they're on the open ocean

The Avatar's reincarnation process was patterned after how Tibetan Monks locate the next Dalai Lama.

Once again, I just love how damn into this show you all are, and not just enjoying it, but taking the time to pay attention, engage with it, pick up on tiny details and just geek out over what they could mean. All the theories, the guesses, whether spot on or way off base are fun to hear you discuss and show just how much you all really are into this. Peak Reaction material!

Aang is a coward and a scoundrel. Lol it's wild rewatching this show for the first time.

This is the episode that got me to sit up an pay attention to the series, instead of just thinking of it as a kid's show with some really cool and inventive choreography and enjoyable characters.
And "I'm too young to die!" "I'm not, but I still don't wanna!" is one of my favorite jokes to this day.

I'll admit, this is the season 1 episode I've been the most excited to witness. There is so much discussion you could have out of this one, and I'm so glad you guys kept pausing. Some people may get frustrated by it, but I love the discussions you guys have.

Zuko is such a cool character. Even without hearing the crew talking with iroh, and his last interaction with them being on poor terms, he still went back on his word. Because deep down he was lying, he does care about his men. Just like he cared about that army squad that was going to be used as bait.

We have seen someone freeze water before that wasn't Aang. Just a couple episodes ago too.

When an Avatar dies their spirit immediately hops into a new life as a primary bender of the next element. But it's not easy to know the new Avatar's identity. Every tribe has its own tests. Interestingly, sometimes it's figured out because an Avatar starts bending a second element by accident when they start learning.

If you guys think the possibility of lightning is crazy, just think about all the other things different benders could do

The joints thing is kind of real. It has to do with sensing changes in air pressure, there's not really a consensus on how well it works as it's really subjective. Some people claim the same feeling with bone injuries as well. I can't feel storms but I've broken my humorous and it pops when the weather gets cold.

I mean, scientifically lightning and fire are both plasma......lighting is just much much hotter plasma
