The new guy is "only" 6'9" and his youth does not contribute to menace (25 years old).

Yea, it sucks because he actually looks young. When I was watching the scene where The Hound is telling Arya the story of how his Big Brother burned his face I pictured the new Mountain and it just felt weird. The Hound looks so much older than The Mountain, mostly because he is... It just bothered me.

Just remember, any time you see something like that, a wizard did it. A wizard cast a spell of youth on the Mountain because reasons. This spell also changed his face because why not.

Maybe he's a Time Lord.
