Watch 174,373 'Game of Thrones' Deaths in 23 Minutes

Valar morghulis, indeed. While Game of Thrones is known for its complex plot lines, epic battles, and countless characters, the show would be nothing without its love of gore. Between its major murders and full-scale, fan-favorite clashes like the Battle of the Bastards, there have been seemingly innumerable killings since the show premiered in 2011. It's hard to imagine recounting all the deaths on the show, but thanks to YouTube channel Leon Andrew Razon Compilations, you can watch more than 170,000 of them in just over 20 minutes.

This YouTube video attempts to document each and every death from Game of Thrones's first seven seasons, with a body count totaling a whopping 174,373.

While the video is a bit quick, you can see the scenes of some of the most famous Game of Thrones deaths ever, including those of Joffrey Baratheon and Robb Stark. And even the smallest of deaths are counted, including Melisandre's leeches and the Freys' crow. No person or animal (RIP, Lady) is left out. Battle scenes obviously rack up the most bodies and the tally rises sharply as the seasons progress.

With the upcoming final battle for the Iron Throne and the conclusion of the eighth and final season, we're sure many more names will be added to this list of the dead. We're just hoping our favorite characters can avoid it.
