Again, we all have this presupposition that Dany was fireproof to begin with. Why is that?
Generations of Targaryens, and none were fireproof (often tested). Then one lives side by side with dragons and is shown to be fireproof?
Although this debate has gone back and forth, I really think that there is something that makes her fireproof NOW. As in something in her environment has changed. Either that she is exposed to dragons (in the egg first), or maybe that whole red comet in the sky. All the other magic in their world started working when that thing showed up, so maybe this is one of the effects.
Watch this:
Events in Chronological Order:
1. Viserys is burned to death by molten gold.
2. Jon's hand is burned fighting the others.
3. The Red Star appears in the sky.
4. Dragons are born / Dany is fireproof (except for her hair...)
If she's fireproof now because of something (like the red star, or being around dragons), then it would stand to reason that other people might have the ability to become fireproof even if they have been burned in the past (ie Winterfell's *******)
To be honest, I hadn't considered that. I am one of those who strongly feels that the Red Comet was a sign intended for Dany so it might have somehow changed her. When you really think about it, Dany might not even be completely fireproof. The hatching of the dragons might have been a one-time deal, being fireproof only while that Red Star was in the sky.
It still seems like whoever rides those dragons are going to have to deal with some serious burning sensations. Maybe Tyrion will develop some kind of Dragon-saddle... hmmm...
I wouldn't want to be the unsullied who has to saddle the dragons...
