That's the problem I have with that explanation. It makes Alduin look like a complete idiot. And there is nothing I hate more than a stupid villain.

Re:the Alduin discussion
I always assumed that he sorta tumbled out of the time rift thing at or in proximity to Helgen. And consequently went on a rampage upon doing so. I agree with others who say that it was very much a chance occurrence overall.

I have always wondered the same and the answer I get is they have other heightened senses, particularly better hearing. Honestly, I don't buy that they can shoot so well by normal hearing. Maybe they can echolocate like bats?

...is not Sjadbek, he just runs him.
Yeah. All things considered, Helgen isn't that far away from the Throat of the World, and if the ancient Nord heroes happened to banish Alduin from time in Helgen's direction, it's entirely possible he tumbles out of the Time-Wound even closer to Helgen, and is all "WHERE ARE MY SLAVES?" and attacks, inadvertently saving the Dragonborn's life.

I need some dragon scale shoes.
And how am I still able to walk with the helmet on? Shouldn't I be falling in the forge and creek?

If I'm female and take armor off a male bandit and equip it. Where does the boob plates come from?

Personally, I thought he looked constipated.

Must be Armor of Enchanted Boobies.

Because it's obvious she'd still rather have Sven... or you.
Why does accidentally picking something up in a store count as stealing even if you divest yourself of it before leaving the store?

Aha, indeed neither Sven or Faendal handed her a shiny golden trinket.

Why does every guard in skyrim hail sithis? Do none care for the law?

Because you dared to lay your heathen hands upon their precious goods, which in the mind of a shopkeeper is an affront against all mankind...

If Talos worship is illegal in Skyrim, why hasn't Heimskr gotten killed by Thalmor or taken prisoner?
bulbaquil
...is not Sjadbek, he just runs him.
He has been taken prisoner. He just bribed the right jailors. All indications are Balgruuf doesn't care at the present time, and the Thalmor probably don't want to infiltrate Whiterun for fear that doing so would push Balgruuf solidly into the Stormcloak camp which may be detrimental to their goals.
(i.e.: The Thalmor likely benefit short-term from Balgruuf's neutrality. Why Heimskr's still around if you defend Whiterun siding with the Empire, I don't know.)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the Thalmor are just bidding their time until Balgruuf chooses a side in the war. Once he waves his Empire flag, they'll sweep into Whiterun and nail Heimskr. Except in my Skyrim, 'cause he's already dead. I not-so-accidentally shot him...

Simply because the Dragonborn in everyone's version of Skyrim kills him before the Thalmor can get to him
