Game Of Thrones: 10 Things That Could Kill A Giant

4. Gregor Clegane

A battle between the Mountain and a Giant would be a fight all Game of Thrones fans would part with money to see. Many would believe that the Mountain€™s first fight with an opponent bigger than himself would result in the ass-whooping we€™re all longing to see him receive. It is true that the Mountain has always been reliant on his enormous frame and equally formidable strength to bully his opponents and a Giant would definitely eliminate these advantages. However, despite this fact we would expect to see Clegane defeat a Giant €“ most likely in horrifyingly graphic fashion €“ as long as he didn€™t prove to be a coward when finally fighting something larger than himself. Oberyn Martell may have proven that the Mountain is far from agile, but compared to a Giant Gregor is practically Usain Bolt. Though he is not fast compared to most opponents, Gregor can still swing that enormous sword with enough speed to easily tag the brute from the north and is a far more skilled warrior than a Giant. Most of the human opponents described on this list would have to wear a Giant down while Clegane could feasibly cleave one apart in a single hit €“ we saw a Giant felled with a single, large arrow fired from The Wall so there is no reason to suppose that the Mountain (who cleaved his horse€™s head off with one blow) shouldn€™t be able to slice one up. Though we would all love to see Gregor Clegane have his head caved-in by the enormous creature, the chances of this happening are slim.
