I just had a weird idea: Gollum.
Think about it. Gollum was the one that destroyed the ring. And couldn't they somehow convince him to destroy the ring, seeing as he "loves and hates himself" ( a movie quote, dont trust it). Ok, i know the answers no!
How about Gollum in a bag. So that nobody gets attached to it, the ring is put in a bag. Gandalf seals the bag using magic (if he has a spell for it) and they take it in turns to carry it. Then, since nobody sees it and thus nobody gets attached to it, they all throw it into the mountain together. If gollum was in the bag, theyre destroying two evil things at once!
OK, the gollum idea is stupid, but why not have the ring in a bag?
This would, of course, have the consequence of a) rohan being overrun by Isengard, b) The Battle on the Pellenor fields would probably be lost, c) The Witchking would endure.
