Warning: Contains gigantic spoilers for Game of ThronesSeason 6, episode 9.

LONDON -- The Battle of the Bastards has been fought and won.

The fight was full of heroes, but there were none bigger than everyone's favourite giant, Wun Wun. Sure, Jon Snow was brave and everything, but if they hadn't had Wun Wun's sweet size they never would have been able to wrap things up at Winterfell as quickly as they did.

Sadly, in the cruel world of Westeros, not everyone can make it through unscathed.

As soon as Wun Wun crumpled to the floor in the castle courtyard after smashing his way through the barred doors, fans flocked to social media to pay tribute to the gigantic warrior.
