HIGH POINTS | Becoming the most formidable warrior in all of Westeros by killing a whole bunch of people, often with his bare hands; being anointed a knight, despite his brutal reputation; serving as the Lannisters’ personal bodyguard/assassin; besting Oberyn Martell in a trial by combat that ended with a gruesome skull-crushing; dispensing with poor Qyburn with comical efficiency, cracking his skull on a rock without breaking a sweat.
LOW POINTS | Getting poisoned by Oberyn’s spear and coming perilously close to death before being resurrected by Qyburn’s black magic; having to live as a half-dead, reanimated corpse.
CAUSE OF DEATH | A nasty fall into a fiery pit alongside his brother Sandor, aka The Hound, at the conclusion of the much-anticipated Cleganebowl.
EPITAPH | An indisputably great fighter, The Mountain lived up to every inch of his lofty name; if he wasn’t widely loved, at least he was widely feared.
