Giant 'Game of Thrones' Star Dwarfed In Vegas By 'Tallest Man'
The Mountain was turned into a molehill when he was stacked up against the former tallest man in the world.
"Game of Thrones" star Hafthor Bjornsson, aka The Mountain, was in Las Vegas last weekend for the Mr. Olympia bodybuilding competition, as Bjornsson is also a regular competitor in the World's Strongest Man events.

The star was with his wife, Kelsey Henson, and stopped by the D Casino Hotel in downtown Las Vegas for dinner at Andiamo Italian Steakhouse.
BTW -- The Mountain's wife is only 5'2."
It just so happened, that 6′ 9″ Bjornsson wasn't the biggest man in the house, as 7'8" former basketball star, George Bell was also enjoying himself at the D.
Bell was formerly recognized as the world's tallest man in the world by the Guinness Book of World Records, until he was dethroned in 2010 by a 7 feet 8 1⁄3 Ukranian man.
After the meetup, Bjornsson took his gigantic appetite to Andiamo, where he met up with WWE Diva Natalie Eva Marie and her husband, Jonathan Coyle.
As the bodybuilding competition was in town, the group was also joined by IFBB Pro 4x Olympia athlete Jason Poston and his wife, Sheena.
We're told the group feasted on steaks, pastas, and even left room for dessert. Fans began to notice the group in the swank Italian restaurant and began coming over to the stars' table for photo ops.
Afterwards, the fitness group hit the casino floor and took over one of the D's craps tables.
We're told the fans around the table were so excited, security had to be called in to help with crowd control.
Turns out the group had Lady Luck on their side, and they all won big while throwing dice.
D Casino owner Derek Stevens, his wife Nicole, and son Sammy Stevens congratulated all the stars, and then provided security through a back hallway so the group could make their way to one of the hotel’s branded armored truck limos.
