Why didn't the giant... (spoilers S6E9)


... just plow through the Boltons' ring of shields? Yes, he tried and failed, but he seemed stronger than that. If he got enough of them, then Jon's men could slip through and hit the rest from behind. Really, arrows would barely be splinters to big strong Wun Wun, so he shouldn't have died so easily either...

"Yes, he tried and failed." Your answer's right there. He tried. He failed. Yeah he's big, but when there's that much going against you... And comparatively, needles are small to us, but if someone shot you with dozens of them at you in that short a time span, would probably slow you up too.

Meh. I guess so. It just seemed like it would work. And I think they might have messed up with his size a few times, too; some scenes he looked slightly bigger or smaller.
