When did Jaime kill the mad king?
In Game of Thrones, the Mad King was around 37-years-old when Jaime killed him, since this event took place in 281AC (it’s unclear, though, if his birth year is the same, since the show changed Aerys’ father from Jaehaerys II to Aegon V, so it’s possible he is older).
