The actor, who has won an Emmy nomination for his role on the show, said that the scene depicting his character Jon Snow nearly drowning in a sea of bodies is one of his phobia, said the .
"Everything had backed up a bit and we were running out of time to shoot what we had intended. Miguel and I talked about what my greatest fears are. And as it happens, one of my greatest fears is a human crush - those horrible stories you hear about stadiums where people literally suffocate to death because they can't get out of other people panicking. I thought if we could do that in this sequence, that could be really terrifying for the viewer," Mr Harington said.
