No. That's typical of ancient heroes - Arthur is credited with killing five hundred men in one battle. Besides I don't think its logically impossible that Hurin killed 70 trolls. And logical impossibility is what we're talking here. Its also subjective. The capture of Hurin I, personally, found incredibly moving. The incidents I cited in the movies I found silly. If you didn't that's fine.
