The Giant Sherpa was a hulking sidekick of Toht who wrestled Indiana Jones in The Raven in 1936.
The Sherpa waited outside Marion Ravenwood's bar while the others went in to take the medallion from her. Seeing that Jones was spoiling things inside, the huge man burst in and started to grapple with the archaeologist.
Indy tried to push him into the fireplace but only succeeded in setting the goon's arm on fire. Shrugging off the pain, the Sherpa continued fighting with Indy until he was knocked out with a chair to the head and was abandoned inside of the burning Raven afterwards.
