Did the Balrog have wings?? PJ assumed that the monster did, but Tolkien does not state in any of his works that the Maiar spirit had any. What do you think, and can you back this up with evidence?

HIC, I demand that you bludgeon yourself with a rock until your mental status returns to the level of a rapist who calls back to apologise! Your use of elaborate language and words is making me uneasy. Although, I am somewhat relieved to see that your punctuation remains shit-based.

IF they could fly then they are very retarded. Seen as on 2 occasions(that I can think of) Balrogs were slain by being knocked off cliffs.

lmao...i always called u carlos...lmao...sry man...

they have wings....thats true...but they cannot fly with them...and like ppl said...he fell down khazad dum and could have flown bak up...he wasnt really hurt...

but there is always the chance that there was no room to spread his massive wings out...or maybe gandalf was assaulting hiw too hard for him to fly away...

:P

LOL @ James

I think that they may have been able to fly - there is little spce for the wing span to spread out in the cavern
