Arya from ‘Game of Thrones’ Takes the Dreaded Cinnamon Challenge

On ‘Game of Thrones’ Maisie Williams plays Arya Stark, a plucky tween warrior who’s always up for a fight. Apparently Williams also embraces challenges in real life, and recently had herself videotaped attempting the notorious cinnamon one.
The rules of the cinnamon challenged are thus: swallow a tablespoon of the spice in less than a minute without the help of water. See how Williams does.

So that didn’t end well. But, really, it never does.
The part when she appears to be blowing smoke as she chokes on the cinnamon onslaught actually has a bit of a mystical ’GOT’ feel to it. Then when she spits the stuff up it’s just gross.
But not as gross as it could be. Something about a British accent makes even a gag reflex seem sort of classy.
