Is there a bug fix for the " Space Hit " ?
I really find it annoying and I hope there's a fix , nothing funny.

Yeah, giants offer a tour package where you travel 'Club Class'. The view of Skyrim is great, the oxygen shortage is a killer, though :hehe:

With the help of the Giants, I was able to explore planets for the future colonization of Nirn's citizens.

Giants can be a challenge for low level Melee characters. It's much easier for Archers and Mages, since they deal damage from distance and cannot be hit by a Giant. Fighting Giants can be good way of practicing your combat skills, especially Block and Armor skills.

Giant Toes have unique Fortify Health effect and is a very useful and valuable ingredients for Alchemists.

I don't understand why anyone would want to "fix" this "bug". It's so funny and awesome.

My first giant launched me horizontally instead of vertically, and I didn't go far.

It's lame and unrealistic , just a bug which people think is funny.
Well I DON'T so I really want to FIX it.

Skyrim is about immersion and RP, most long term players aren't in it for the combat gameplay. So, when bugs like this persist in the game, it kinda detracts a little from the atmosphere, thus sabotaging the main thing keeping most players afloat.

Don't get me wrong, it was amusing the first few times, but jokes are less funny each time they are told. It's not that big a deal, but I'd rather it was done away with.

In response to the rest of what you put there, I honestly never considered fighting giants that much. I should try it out, it could help me level a good bit.

The only time I fought a giant it was with a Dunmer warrior in light armor. It took some time, but Flames made the job while I was jumping around the poor sod.

Flying into Sky after getting hit is only as unrealistic as a flying dragon. It's silly to claim that this detracts from immersion in this Fantasy RPG. Giants are strong, and have magickal clubs.

LOL same here. And BTW, not even a Mudcrab can enter it. So you can make a train of crabs and then lolygag them from inside

If the giant launched something into the stratosphere, it was your character, not you personally.

But by all means, find a mod that stops giants from humiliating your characters, you have every right to do so in your game ;)
