hold the door... | GAME OF THRONES [6x5] (REACTION) 

Not all heroes wear capes. Some just hold the door.

Everyone: "Nothing will top the tragedy of the Red Wedding." Hodor: "Hold my door."

One of the most devastating episodes and deaths in the entire show. RIP Summer and Hodor, our favourite sweet giant. 😢

It’s been 7 years since this episode first aired. I cry every single time 💔

When this first aired I cried like I lost a family member. RIP Hodor. To me that’s a genius episode and brilliant writing.

Hodor literally witnessed his own death while Bran was warging into him.. His past self some how got a glimpse of this and it changed him forever. All this time he was such a gentle and kind person and loved Bran, even though he knew that he would eventually die brutally to protect him.

So just so you guys fully understand the level of greatness that is hodor that means since he was a boy he has had his death engraved into his mind knowing how he would die still defended bran and Rickon with everything even though he was terrified of what would come. A true legend.

There it is. The saddest death of GoT. Kristian Nairn said so much in his role as Hodor with only one word. The DJ turned actor did really an amazing job, his portrayal of Hodors last minutes really did hit hard.

The most heart-breaking episode ever. Imagine having THAT as your destiny. Your whole life leading up to Holding that Door.

Grateful Bridget has Cody for this one. In my opinion, Hodor’s storyline is the most heartbreaking. Even knowing it’s coming, this one breaks me every time.

Another episode that had the whole world in tears when it aired. RIP Hodor 🚪 I love how they show how the night king began and during they show how powerful he’s becoming. BTW you guys are killing it. I absolutely love waiting for your GOT reactions- they are the best. Legends!!

After this episode originally aired, my coworker had a large wood block that would hold a door open at work and he enscribed HODOR on it 🤣

This is the ep that got me. I cried harder than I cried at any other point in the show after realizing that Willis saw his own death and lived his life to save Bran’s. No question in my mind that Hodor is the most heroic character in the show.

RIP Wylis. You held the door. RIP Summer. RIP Leaf. RIP Bloodraven.

I didn't even cry for the red wedding but THIS scene ripped me apart

Hodor is the most brilliant piece of writing in any book. When you guys started this series... this is the show I was waiting for!!! As saddening as it is to lose our gentle giant.. the way it all came together is nothing short of pure brilliance! And the looks on your faces... made it all worth the wait!

The realization that Hodor's mind has been replaying his death for like 25-40 years is the part that will get you here. He's been dying all this time... It is quite heavy. And yes, Bran here indeed changed the past. Though as cool as it feels here and as impactful as it should be, it goes largely unexplored in the rest of the show. I expect this to be something else in the books, if Martin finally gets another one done...

the ending scene was emotional, I remember streaming the episode using library wi-fi back in day and it brought out tears.

Definitely one of the most saddest scenes on the show! 😢

Yall are tough for watching another after that episode....my boy Willis had one job and he held that door!!!

Such a visceral moment in GoT, we all felt it deeply because we love the gentle giant who knew his fate; he said it every day and no one knew what it meant...😢

Bran was a menace, lowkey. Poor Willis.

i swear when this ep came out i remember actually sobbing like uncontrollably.😭 also, this is exactly why this show is a work of art, the SYMBOLISM!!! you’re kidding gtf outta here.

I think everyone had the same reaction when they saw this episode. It really got me good. It's been really fun watching you guys go through the series. You guys are awesome.

Yeh…this one always brings me to tears

Euron is the perfect example of “what the heck why didn’t ya’ll just follow the books!!!”

I actually have a "Hold the Door" door mat

Watching interviews with the actor who played Hodor brings such joy. He's alive and happy. When characters become real to you, you know that's a great actor. Or great script, or directing.. Anyway, seeing the actor RL feels good.

This originally aired on my birthday. I was watching it with my mom and then-boyfriend. When I tell you I sobbed I mean sobbed. For some reason like completely inconsolable. Still makes me cry now but not like that first watch😅😢

I HAD TO BUY THE MEMBERSHIP FOR THIS REACTION BECAUSE I COULDN'T WAIT AND I DON'T REGRET IT 😂😭 I LOVE YOU GUYS! You are my literal favorite people on this damn YT app and im so thrilled to get early access to your content!! 🥰

I hadn’t seen this episode since my first watch through back in 2016 and it destroyed me as hard now as it did then.

One of the saddest television moments for me. I will always tear up at this. I went into this knowing I'd be crying alongside.

This episode is underrated compared to some of the later episodes this season. A total emotional mindfuck once you realize what's happening.

One of the most shocking and painful episodes of anything I've ever seen. Perfection

From that episode until he was helping Bran & Meera escape by holding the door, he knew what his fate was. And he was still so sweet & kind. It's heartbreaking

The saddest death 😢 still makes me cry and I've seen it so many times. Hodor held the door. Legend 💔

Insert gif of Jack Nicholson nodding maniacally

Hodor, such a legend

He held that door. He fcking held that door!😢

This is one of the twists George Martin instructed show runners about.

OMG, how young are you two? 6 years old when you saw Face/Off? lol Dammit, I forgot this was the Hodor episode. Breaks me every time. A great reaction like always, you two. I'm gonna go wipe my face. :( lol

I’m buddies with Kristian and when I said he broke my heart he just chuckled… such an amazing, hilarious, humble guy

This season is awesome and your reactions are the best I'm totally here for it, I did binge watch season 6 too

The need to binge is strong 😂 hang in there guys, soooo worth all this ❤

“Y’all ran out of book and this is what you came up with?”😂😂😂

❤ I love you guys! I love watching your channel. 1st time I watched y'all was The Crow. Y'all been my people since. Loves! ❤

Poor Hodor, what a kind soul. He deserved better

been rewatching the whole series with yall and i know i will miss this as soon as u finish the show ):

The episode that shattered everyone's heart😔💔 The writing on this show is so top tier👌🏾👌🏾

I have watched this episode/reactions to it 50 plus times.... still cry every time I watch it.

Don't think too much about how all that happened, you'll scramble your noggin! Lol. 🤘🤣

Rest in pieces Summer, Winter is HERE.

Hodor’s whole life was for that moment 😢 rest easy kind giant

Even a rewatch makes me cry, frigging blarg!

Game Of Thrones was pure art. I miss it so much.

Gotta give credits where it's due, the way his death unfolded was amazing. Definitely one of the saddest deaths of the show. Dude was just a big teddy bear with a heart of gold. RIP Hodor. 😢

When i a saw this episode when it aired. I could not stop crying for a couple a minutes after the episode ended. No tv show ever made mi feel emotions like Game of thrones did, till this day.

So if Hodor saw his own death- that means he knew exactly what would happen to him throughout the entire series, and he still went through with it... knowing how it would end. He knew his purpose. To help guide them and protect them with his life.

This was the best reaction I’ve seen to this episode. Love it.

*Hodor says "Hodor" during the first watch* "Aww, so cute!" *Hodor says "Hodor" during the second watch* *(Ugly crying)*

Just know that it is okay to be devastated, sad, and mad while still recognizing the brilliance of the storytelling. This episode makes me ugly cry every time.

RIP Hordor.

Actually when you drown, your lungs don't fill up with water. You have nerves in your larynx and when water starts to go down towards your lungs your larynx seals off, an involuntary reflex, to protect your lungs, and triggering a swallowing reflex to divert the water to your stomach. If water remains in your airway, your airway will remain sealed, eventually leading to hypoxia and death (although cold water collapsing body temperature can shut down down metabolism and the body can be resuscitated after a much longer period than normal-if you ever have to do CPR on a cold person, don't give up until they're _warm_ and dead), at which point the muscles will eventually relax and allow water into your lungs. But, if you survive the drowning, there won't actually be that much water inside your respiratory system, and very little if any in your lungs.

The death of Hodor and the story behind it is the most purely sad in the series, imo. The Red Wedding was such a shock that the sadness didn't register for me until later. Shireen's death made me more angry than sad. Hodor's exit just broke me

I just love this episode, and the ending, it is just incredible how time was woven.. something in the future was the reason Hodor got that mental block when he was younger, just for all of his life leading to that moment where he would die a hero It is a sad ending, but it is also poetic, a hero's death

Oh no...I just got notification for this. I will watch it tonight with no distractions. I already know I want to hug you both

As the mother of an autistic non-verbal daughter, I grew very attached to Hodor while reading the books. This season is beyond what is already written in the books, so I did not expect this part of his story, and it fuckin’ wrecked me. I never ugly cried so hard at television in my life.

"You run out of books and THIS is what you come up with!?!" Oh, buddy....😮‍💨

His whole existence was to just hold the door 😢

This episode was epic yet tragic because we lost the "big man", Hodor & the beautiful Dire Wolf, Summer. When I 1st saw this episode, I cried. Watching it in your RU-vid reaction, I cried, again. The Children created the 1st White Walker aka The Night King in order to fight the 1st Men when they arrived in Westeros. The Children lost whatever control they had on the White Walkers & had to join forces w/the 1st Men to beat back the Walkers. The Wall was built in case the White Walkers returned & to insure the protection of the Children of the Forest by making a border. The old man/3 Eyed Raven was actually a Targaryen. He was the Mad King's uncle/great uncle, something like that. Now, Bran is the 3 Eyed Raven. There is speculation that the Night King might have been a Stark. Ok, well, that's all I got to say. Great reaction guys.😊👍 See u on the next one.

I have a severely autistic son, so, I have a soft spot for people like Hordor and I cry every time I see that scene. Sadness aside tho...it was brilliant. Any show that can produce that kind of emotion from a character reveals how wonderfully they've made that character. Providing a reason for both his condition, name, and only verbal communication was magnificent. It was tremendously sad, but, you will come to realize how important it was and that Hordor served a greater purpose.

I love all the huge revelations we get this season which is why I enjoyed it a lot more than the previous one.

B&C. My bestie and I were getting together on Sunday nights to watch GoT together. We cried, cried and cried some more for many hours after this episode. I think we finished off a couple bottles of wine that night, too. Raise a glass 🍷 to Hodor. Our hero.

Y'all did good. I was hysterical and nearly cussed someone out at my job the next day when they asked me to hold the door. It was way too soon 🥹😭 Both actors did an amazing job to make it especially devastating. Add in the music and of course I was finished

The whole internet was sad when this episode came out.

There are two episodes every season I wait for you two to see. This was one.

Most heartbreaking episode! Love you guys! Big hugs!

Hodor's death fucking broke me because it's just so tragic and traumatic.

Like I said earlier...... The Knight King is also a Greenseer and I totally aware of BRAN.... Infact....... Knight King knows everything else, he knows about the wars in the far south, he knows about Daenerys and her Dragons, he knows about Euron Greyjoy....

Bran broke his brain to save the world from the undead scourge, Hodor is a hero of the ages

Thanks for making me cry first thing in the morning!! Lol One of my favorite pieces of writing in the entire series, is Hodor's arc.. Going forward, consider the feud between The Night King and The Three Eyed Raven and their influence on events.. Love this episode for many reasons and especially enjoying Sansa's arc..she has come so far as a character..

ABsolutely blew my mind when it hit me too....was really cool to see your faces the moment your mind was blown ...good reaction ...loved it ....new sub🤟

Such a great episode, loving these reactions!! I'm sure you have a long list of shows to do after this but I'd love to see you watch Black Sails, it's essentially game of thrones but with pirates, you'd love it🤣

THAT SPIRAL SNOWFLAKE IS THE WHITE WALKERS SIGIL..

15:40 that was a very diplomatic way of telling Varys to come the f**k down

in the episode with a "battle" it will be all in 1 shot and i love it. not gonna say which. i love jon, theon, arya, dany, jorah, and the hound.

Littlefinger was in the vale last episode, now he is in the north. This man has a jetpack 😂

I've seen this episode countless times via these reaction channels, and i bawl my eyes out every single time. Its one of the few episodes i cant wait for youtubers to get to when they start g.o.t.

The Hodor scene is not only devastating to watch, but also low key reveals an entire side branch of history. Recall the Mad King, muttering over and over... Burn them All. What if it was caused by the same kind of set of circumstances with the previous Three Eyed Raven?

Damn, yea. That still hurts. Good reactions as always, keep it up!

Get that special someone a Christmas gift to remember with the Hodor Door Stop! Now available in Dark Forest Wood!

The first time I ever saw this, I was crushed man. This episode came out of no where lol

"Ew, get off the ceiling!" made me lol. I thought this was the most crushing death of the series. I wonder how you guys will feel after you've seen all the episodes. I hope you do a wrap-up video with things like favorite character, saddest moment, happiest, etc.

When we all saw this for the first time, "The Door" absolutely destroyed us. It was never not be traumatic

"y'all ran out of book and this is what you came up with?!" yes😭😭😭

I wish they had spent more time building up to the White Walker origins by getting to know more about the children of the forest - THEIR struggles leading up to creation and subsequent pains since creation - to make us appreciate that more

Welcome to the Game of Thrones

Your reaction when you realise the link between Hodor and hold the door was literally everyone’s reaction… or at least mine. Hope you recover quickly. ❤

The spear that shattered the white walker must have had a dragonglass tip. Only dragonglass and Valerian steel, both infused with dragon fire per legend, can kill white walkers and wights.

When this episode came out, there were SO MANY JOKES! Some people actually created a DOOR-STOP with HODOR written on it! Crazy shit, man!
