Mag The Mighty – Neil Fingleton
Mag the Mighty is probably the second most recognizable giant on the Game of Thrones (there are probably three who are distinct). Mag was the giant who is enraged after his fellow giant, Dongo (Ian Whyte), was killed. This led him to lift the gate underneath the wall all by himself and charge to the other side. Remember that moment? The giant charges and the brave men of the Night’s Watch meet him in the tunnel. Yep. That was Mag the Mighty. He ended up taking out six men from the Watch, including Jon’s pal, Grenn. Mag was played by the tallest man in the UK, Neil Fingleton. Sadly, the 7’7″ actor and former basketball player died at the age of 36 this past February. Fingleton played in several massive films and TV shows recently, including Doctor Who, Jupiter Ascending, 47 Ronin, and X-Men: First Class.
