"Bombur is quite naïve, and doesn’t know what to expect on this journey, but don’t underestimate him. He can use his beard—which is braided into an enormous loop—as a weapon. He throws it over his enemies’ heads, pulls them into his massive girth, and strangles them. Otherwise, he mostly cooks."

— From the io9 story on The Hobbit.  The world is very weird.
