I started getting jewtube shorts about the world of asoiaf in my feed and it seems like every fucking knight in Westeros is 6'6 or taller. It's just ridiculous, who ISN'T a fucking 7 feet tall giant at this point?
<chaddit spacing>
There are 20,000 to 40,000 knights in Westeros at any given time. Statistically speaking, the tallest knight should be 6'8. That's it. Maybe once every couple of generations there is a giant like Dunk born, but that's it. Meanwhile in 298 AC we have Sandor and Gregor Clegane, Arryk and Erryk Cargyll, Greatjon and Smalljon Umber, Robert Strong, and Yohn Royce - all 6'8 or taller and all alive at the same time. Not only is that statistically impossible, not only is that just plain retarded and ridiculous, but, as I already said, it also undermines the whole point of tall characters. When every fucking knight is almost as big as the Mountain, the Mountain's size stops being so impressive.

Gregor Clegane and Robert Strong are both 8 feet tall btw. For reference: in the real world there is exactly one man alive right now who is 8 feet tall. One guy out of 8,000,000,000. In Westeros there are AT LEAST two 8 feet tall knights out of mere 40,000. That's beyond retarded. What the fuck was GRRM thinking?

Ev&o robert strong and the mountain are most likely the same person
Also its fantasy series blud gurm is flawed but he said himself that you shouldnt look at his story under a scientific lense
