Number 1 should be the writing

nothing was worse than Hodor. Innocence, loyalty, love, self-sacrifice. Hodor.

I didn’t find Olenna’s death particularly sad. She went out like the badass she was. Sassy grinning while telling Jamie how she killed Joffrey.

Hodor will always be the saddest death for me. Followed by the plot.

The scene where the giant is shot in the eye is heartbreaking. He was the last of his kind. Ramsay shot him so casually, it's just so infuriating.

Ned and Robb Stark’s death was what broke me. In front of his daughters and mother respectively.

I am shocked Lyssa Mormont is so low. At 10 years old, she had more fight in her than 99% of Westeros, and she wasn't "knitting by the fire while men fought for her". In the process she brought down an undead giant with a knife.

the fact that even 50 effective character dies in a series is outrageous.

The dragons deaths were pathetic they were killed far too easily and i would’ve thought dany would at least cry for them they were her considered children after all

I wasn’t planning on getting sidetracked and bummed out for 20 minutes, but here we are.

Olenna Tyrell went out with the baddest ass way to go. "Tell Cerci it was me."

For me Ned stark's death was the most heartbroken

Princess shireen broke me ngl. That actor put in work making the sound of someone being burnt alive so horrifying that its etched into my memory.

Shireen should be nmr 1, she was truly innocent.

"Some hereos hold swords, others hold doors" 😞

No way Khal Drogo is #37. Shae and Selyse Baratheon weren't sad at all.

Oberyn No. 34, Shae No. 21 - now, that's ridiculous

Lyanna Mormont's death was not sad. She went out like the warrior she was, taking the giant with her.

Jorahs death broke my heart mire than any other ❤

Thank you for including the animals..

In what universe is Renly’s death sadder than Wun wuns?

Hodor still makes me cry

I cried a lot when the direwolves died and ned starks death, robb, theon and hodor hit me really hard

Jorah was my favorite character, I cried for hours when that episode came out…

All death were sad except King Geoffrey and Ramsey Bolton

Hodor is, was and will always be #1. The way that storyline came together was nothing short of staggering to watch. When the red wedding happened, I was angry and swore off the show. When Ned died I was shocked and in disbelief. When Hodor died, considering everything we came to know about him til that point, and the gravity of what'd just happened and how he'd lived almost his entire life for that predetermined outcome was just... it broke my mind.

I understand "sad" as heart-breaking, but this top list has stuff which I would personally rank as disturbing, dramatic, violent, frustrating, shocking, notable, but not sad necessarily

Tommen’s death was such a mood though 😭😭😭 …also dang, I forgot how gory Oberyn’s death was even for this show. The bloody teeth raining down on the floor made me flinch from the screen 🫥

The deaths that had he crying the most were Hodor, Theon, and Robb as well as his mother. It broke me into pieces, enough to make me not want to watch it anymore. Hodor was definitely the death that truly even in real life hurt me to the core.

12:07 now I know why they call it Kings Landing.

Rhaegal and Viserion death is wreaking my heart, i can't let them goo. Damnn whyyy they dieeee

The craziest part about this is that there is a top 50 lol

The moment when i realised that Hodor lived all these years just to die at the right moment still haunts me

1 should've been SHIREEN

Each of the wolves deaths and Sandors death, broke my heart

IMHO Hodor was the saddest. Once a perfectly normal child, all his life locked knowing how his death was to come, and still doing his job to protect and serve others

I was banking on Shireen being #1.

The picture quality of some of these clips deserve an honourable mention.

1 million percent agree, the most terrible and heartbreaking scene in the entire Game of Thrones series, after this scene I haven't seen Game of Thrones for a long time. Jorah was faithful to the bitter end, the way Jorah fell when he saw Dany was safe, damn...Ian Glenn, what an actor

Shireen is so bad, I have rewatched early seasons multiple times, and I always end the episode before she dies. They let that screaming go on toooooooooo long.

For me it’s Hodor. His death tore me up and it still does. One of the worst television deaths imo.

Ned start should be number 1. That one blew everyones mind who didnt read the book. And it set the stage that no one was safe in this show. Then number 2 should be the writing.

The red wedding has to be one of the most horrible scenes in GOT History

I don't see how is Selyse Baratheon's death sad. She is responsible for the death of her daughter as much as the red woman and Stannis.

In the beginning, who would've thought Jamie Lannister's death would've been in the top 100 saddest. Let alone the top dozen. I put Ned Stark and Shireen Baratheon's deaths on the list of the most shocking deaths.

Jorah went out like a true knight, fought to the death for his queen who he loved. He made his final stand and didn’t fall until he knew she was safe.

Theon’s death by far had the biggest impact on me! I felt he was going to die in ‘The Long Night’ because he was defending Bran, so I was dreading something I was so confident would happen! Before and during the battle of Winterfell, I was shaking with anxiety… When Theon did die, it broke me. I cried my heart out and was completely shattered to the core. The entire day I was holding back tears. Even if I thought about it, I felt I would cry again. It took me days to get over, and that’s the only time I felt proper grief for one of my favourite characters in Season 8! Jorah’s death haunted me, but Theon’s hit the hardest 💔 I cannot believe that was nearly 5 years ago! Time absolutely flies by 😱

Oberyn Martell's death broke my heart completely. 💔 He lost his life in the most disturbing manner while fighting for Tyrion's (and his sister's) justice. He was truly a gem. 💎😢

Maester aemon always breaks my heart.. both book and show.

Hodor was forced to do what he did by Bran. Jorah did the same out of love and devotion to Dany. For me Ned's death was so tragic that I could not imagine it. And then Robb.. We all were made to believe in starks and suddenly both the main stark characters were killed off.

Shireen Baratheon being burned at stake was clearly the saddest. Your own father allowing such a thing , plus her life was already sad because of the scales infection.

Oberyn Martell's death was horrible and very sad, touched me more than Jorah tbh

Barriston, Hodor, and Jorah. 😭

What about Sally and her father? Committing suicide to avoid starvation is way sadder than most of this list.

Number 6 should have been the saddest. The most honest, humble and stand up character of the entire season.

First one should be the Red Wedding❤

hodor, robb, ned made me cry

(SPOILER) Really the the entire of the red wedding would have topped this as so many died.

Shireen, Robb, e a reação de Drogon com a morte da mãe dele foram o que me arrebentaram.

Never forget the saddest one. The Quality of the series

Two dogs you've seen for little more than episode each is a sadder death than Daenerys, among many others?

I don't know but still to this day Ned Starck death hits hard😢

Well done friend.

Number one should be Shireen. Pretty, mellifluous, kind, literate and Shireen (In persian meaning sweet) like her name.

The tragedies are those who are sacrificed by others. Myrcella. Yoren. Walda and Baby Bolton. Ros. Talisa Stark. Rickon. Lady. Osha, and the halfdozen soldiers in the crush in the battle of the bastards that Snow was pulled above. Hodor: expected to make the ultimate sacrifice, not even acknowledged. But what are the Lannisters, or the dragons, or Danaerys doing here? What are Ned and Catelyn and Robb Stark doing here? If they hadn't been so fecking entitled, thousands wouldn't have died in a pointless war. The people who play the game and lose - when they die, it's not a tragic death. They played the game. Shireen though: Shireen was just a pawn. Shireen should have been #1.

Nothing sad about Theon Greyjoy's death after the betrayal of the Starks and beheading of Ser Rodrick. Nothing sad about Caitlyn Stark's death after the execution of Walder Frey's young wife (who was completely innocent). Jeor Mormont (Jorah's father and Lord Commander of Castle Black, killed by Rast after Karl Tanner killed the Wildling Craster) didn't even get a mention and should have been there most certainly. No mention of Thoro of Myr's death who saved The Hound from the Zombie bear who was a much more loveable character than many of those in the list and therefore a sadder death..

Dynerys the saddly passing away and two dragons viserion and Rheygal❤🥺🥺🥺💔

Shireen ist für mich der Schlimmste von allen... Sie war ein toller Charakter. So unschuldig. Und die Eltern haben zugestimmt...

34 was so sad🥹, came to avenge his sis but it was unfortunate 😢

I agree Ned and rob plus hodor. Shireen wasn’t in the show enough and Mormont helped bring the end of king’s landing in the end he kinda had it coming.

The fact that Talisa, Myrcella and Shireen affected me the most, probably says something about me.

Saddest cruelest worst of all was oberyn's.. i can never rewatch it without being horrified

“Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.” - Dylan Thomas 1947

Hodor broke my heart. 😢

i like how we dont even get to see grenn or any of them die, all you see is them honoring the nights watch whilst a giant is charging to them and you just know yeah i know why hes dead if you havent seen the series

Literally the only people who's store arc were completed in a satisfactory way were the Hound and Jorah

Lyanna Mormont deserved to be in the top 20

Robb stark😢😢

Excited to see Michael Greyeyes in more episodes!

Arrow in the neck, blood gushing out of his mouth “You’re alright”- Sam

Meh. Shae was stupid and a traitor. Selyse would have been more sympathetic if it had come sooner, if it had happened before she passively let Melisandre get her nose so far under the tent flap. Ygritte is a fan fave as is Varys but they both got under my nerves. Theon's death wasn't so much sad as redemptive, as he'd caused them so much grief, he owned the Starks a death. Septa Mordane on the other hand was heartbreaking and heroic. Sansa was a disrespectful brat to her but she still sacrificed herself to save her. Should have been in the top ten.

Jorah, Robb, Lyanna, Daenerys, Khal Drogo, Lady, Summer, Shaggy, Viserion, Rhaegal, Berristan Selmy, Wun wun, Rickon, Shireen, Hodor, Missandei, Jaime, Varys, Theon, The Hound and Baric Dondarrion. There’s your list. The rest are more shocking than sad.

1.Shireen. 2.Hodor. 3.Ned. 4.Oberyn. 5.all in The Red Wedding. 6.Missandei. 7.Khal Drogo. 8.Sor Barristan. 9.Viserion and Rhaegal. 10.Lady.

Omg I had forgotten about half of these… what a rollercoaster!! Hodor, Shireen, Jorah and all the Dire Wolves broke my heart 💔💔😢

WUNWUN SHUD BE HIGHER WTH

Shireen, #1, Sir Jorah, #2, #3, temporary death of Jon Snow, those got the easiest tears. Ma Stark? Not one tear, she treated Jon Snow terribly and was glad to see her go. I never understood the boohooing over the Red Wedding, although the death of a pregnant woman sux. Two innocents die, not one. I just didn't care about their story line.

Good thing that the "potato camera" still lives nowadays

Hodor, Shireen, and Jamie always get me worked up.

Didn't care at all 'bout Shireen but Thoros and Beric death had me tearing.

Robb didn't deserve to be this high, neither did his wife. They got what was coming to them the moment Robb choose a pretty face over his vows as a King. Lyanna Mormont deserved to be way higher up the list. No-one gives a fuck about Shae. Rickon was a stupid shit for not knowing how to zigzag. My god there are so many people in this list that many people don't give a second thought while the more memorable people are way to low on the list.

The wolves and the dragons really broke my heart😢

Series end 5 years ago but looking at the views and see that this video was uploaded 9 month ago, we can see how popular it still is... If only they hadn't ruined it, maybe the last episodes of the last season would be released now and maybe now we would be watching the proper ending to this masterpiece 😢

king jeoffrey’s death is the saddest death in the series. 🥲

A direwolf made the list?Come on! Rickon,Rob and Dany tore me up. I didn't think he would do it. Shireen,Holdor,And Theon were the saddest He truly redeemed himself with the Starks.

The loss of Jorah Mormont is what sent Danny over the edge into madness.

In the books dragons skin was immuned to any attack ,only can be killed by attacking their eyes. All dragons should survive

Hodor’s death should be number 1. Hands down. Shireen is sad, but we barely really got to see her much. She wasn’t there or as important as Hodor. Hodor quite literally CARRIED Bran out of danger multiple times KNOWING how that would end. He wasn’t stupid. He understood them. He knew what was going to happen, it’s what damaged his speech in the first place and yet he still pressed forward with it. I cried so hard when he died. It shook me. And I cried a little bit at Shireen’s death. It would likely have had more impact if we got to see the remains like that cooked corpse that was presented by the farmer that the dragon supposedly killed. Them burying whatever would be left of her remains would probably have done more damage to me and many others. Hell, that farmer and his kid who were robbed by Hound hurt me worse than her and we barely saw them. When Hound went back into that house with the Brotherhood and found them it was so tragic. Robb’s death was shocking, didn’t make me cry tho. I feel the sudden violence was just so shocking and infuriating that it smothered any sorrow. Jorah tho…definitely second to Hodor. And how dare they not put his father on here. He stood up for Jon Snow and gave him that sword he’d had for his son because Jon saved his life. His death also got me to cry. Maester Aemon too, so sad. OAQ

3. Lady 2. Grey Wind 1. Shaggydog Those are the only saddest deaths..

1 actually makes me cry

1. Horor 2. Sheereen 3. Ned Stark
