Giant

Giants are unused, over-sized mobs that look like zombies. They currently have no purpose other than decoration.

Drops
Giants drop 5 experience when killed.

Spawning
Giants require a light level greater than 11 and less than 8. This effectively makes it impossible to make them appear naturally or through spawners.

Commands
Giants can be spawned using commands such as.

Behavior
Giants are close to 12 blocks tall, and use a six times enlarged zombie model.

Giants currently have no AI. The consequence of this is that they always face south when summoned and stay that way, never wandering, turning their head, chasing the player, or responding to damage except for taking knockback. Their viewing direction can only be changed with commands.

Giants are in the Xbox 360 and Xbox One editions, although they require external modifications for their egg to be placed in the player's inventory.

Data values
Giants have entity data associated with them that contain various properties of the mob. Their entity ID is.

Trivia

 * Since giants need to have a light level both less than 8 and greater than 11 to spawn, they don't spawn from monster spawners. However, this spawn condition can be bypassed with a custom spawner, if it attempts to spawn an entity with valid spawn conditions riding a giant.
 * If you name a giant using a name tag, its name will appear inside its head.
 * If a Giant stands in a liquid, it can't move.
 * Giants for the longest time had the largest health pool of all the mobs. While they no longer claim that title, they are still the tallest mob in vanilla Minecraft, standing at an astounding 12 blocks tall. They also claim the title of having the most dangerous attack in the game, beaten only by a charged creeper's explosion.
 * Giants share the exact same model as the zombie. This means that changes made to the zombie model change the Giant's as well.
 * Notch removed the Giants spawning capabilities because "they are too overpowered". He did not remove them entirely because "they are just too cool to remove".
 * If a Giant is riding a minecart, it hovers way above it.
 * If a mob is riding a Giant, unless it's a very large slime or magma cube, a ghast or the ender dragon, it is completely hidden from view by the Giant's head.
