Re: Of Bombadillos and Balrogs

Here you go, Eldar14:

<blockquote>Quote:<hr> Then Glorfindel's left hand sought a dirk, and this he thrust up that it pierced the Balrog's belly nigh his own face (for that demon was double his stature);...<hr></blockquote>

From BoLT2 Fall of Gondolin.

Also, FoTR tells us that the Balrog was &quot;of man-shape, maybe, yet greater...&quot;
