Or if you do, say, survive a fall from a tower window you don't survive, get magic powers, and become king in the end.

Oh, wait.

For me, everything that happens on HBO after Jon is stabbed by his brothers is just high-end fanfic. I will always believe that the showrunners fucked up the ending. And, let's be real, GRRM isn't going to prove me wrong.

They might have rushed it but I'm pretty certain the big plot points are the same. They'd always claimed they had the broad strokes ending from Season 1.

The one thing I could have seen him do was not bring Jon back but it honestly doesn't change that much

That's not in the book though.
