Mizkif also posted a picture of them together titled, “WITH THE MOUNTAIN”. After this, the post was flooded with comments from fans, who showed their love and support for the duo.

The best comment was from The Mountain himself, where he called Mizkif “son”. Notably, Hafthor’s age is 33, while Mizkif is only 27 years old.

Other comments comprised OTK’s official page, calling Mizkif the Hill compared to ‘Thor’. As it is also noted that Mizkif is the owner of OTK, fans started teasing Mizkif because of how small he looked in front of Hafthor.
