It's more like:
>BRAVO HACKSON
Since in the books the one that kills him is Pippin with his magical sword and both him and Eowyn almost die because of having contact with the Witchking

its not a literal "no man can kill me", nowhere is that ever said to be a literal actual thing, its just that everyone thinks he is undefeatable.

Bitchking

don't forget those goddamn giant birds that coulda just plopped the ring into Mt Doom.

Gandalf says it explicitly in one of his conversations with Denethor. I'm too lazy right now to copy the exact quote tho.

fulfilling a prophecy is not semantics

>Pippin kills him
(1) you've confused Merry for Pippin
(2) It wasn't Merry who killed him either, Eowyn strikes the killing blow. Merry just hobbles him and pierces his magic with the enchanted Western blade. If I rip off your bulletproof vest and my buddy Greg blows a hole in your chest, Greg is the one that killed you.

Bilbo also had the chance to destroy it during the events of The Hobbit since it is said that dragonfire can also destroy the rings of power.

>Far off yet is his doom, and not by the hand of man will he fall.-Glorfindel

Glorfindel foretold his defeat, there is technically no "rule" that a Man can't kill him, it's just not going to happen that way because [Fate]. It's just like Macbeth's "born of a woman" thing. Macbeth was not actually immune to damage from people born normally.

Yeah but its a figure of speech, he is referring to man as in the species and just saying that "it is said no man can defeat him" as in he is just that badass, he is not literally saying "no male man can defeat him because of some curse or prophecy". When she says "I am no man" its just an corny one liner, but every retard on this board thinks thats what it means.

This person understands
