Game of Thrones’s biggest ever cliffhanger ending sent Twitter into a mini meltdown

**SPOILER ALERT – DO NOT READ AHEAD IF YOU ARE EAGER TO AVOID SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 2**

The night of Sunday May 1st/Monday May 2nd 2016 was like any other for most Game of Thrones fans and the internet in general.

There we all were, minding our own business staying up late to watch the 2am Game of Thrones simulcast because Monday was a Bank Holiday, and throwing a bit of shade at Melisandre while we were at it…

I bet she's just pretending to do some magic as an excuse to wipe a wet cloth over #JonSnow's body. I would. #GameofThrones

When suddenly…

Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. #GameofThrones #JonSnow

There was relief.

I can't recall, in all my life, being so relieved on finding out the fate of a fictional character. We were right #JonSnow #GameofThrones

There was, of course, some confusion.

Who is #JonSnow and why is everyone glad he's alive? #TwitterTripping

And at least one person quite frankly couldn’t believe how easy it was to revive him

So he just needed his hair washed?#GameofThrones #JonSnow

For others, Jon’s resurrection was enough to forgive Melisandre her most grave sins.

Alright, Melisandre, I guess we can talk about wiping the slate clean from that Shireen incident now. #GameofThrones #JonSnow

— Jared Putnam (@jaredputnam) May 2, 2016

Queen Melisandre ???? came through for all of us #JonSnow #GameofThrones

— Terron (@TeeVanity) May 2, 2016

Even fans who saw the twist coming a mile off couldn’t help but share in the shock and awe of the Snow related glee online.

Most of us knew it was coming, but still so satisfying! Kind of glad they didn't make us wait too long. #JonSnow #GameofThrones

It’s not yet clear what the future holds for the resurrected Lord Commander, but there is one thing we do know.

The Memes will be strong with this one.
