Luke and Jaime are practically the same person
Okay, at first blush this may seem a little far-fetched, but these two heart-throbs have a lot more in common than fancy swords and lost limbs.
However, the similarities do begin with the fact that both Luke Skywalker and Jaime Lannister have lost a hand in battle, and a lot of people on social media have been drawing attention to this. Tumblr user ‘maisiewilliams’ (not the actual actress) posted this on her account about the two, which stirred a lot of interest:

That’s a lot of reblogs and likes! When you think about it, as The Daily Dot mentions:
"They are both sandy-haired would-be heroes who lose their right hands mid-way through the series!"
This Tumblr chain continued to grow as people started to reply to the Tumblr thread, picking out more similarities between the two. These analyses make it seem as though these two knights are practically the same person. Seriously. The results are quite shocking:
