Frstly, I'm assuming that by giant, you mean 50-60 feet tall, if you're talking about a guy 9 feet tall, just kick him in the nuts and sheathe your sword into his spine.
I'd need a harpoon and a longblade, if explosives are in Skyrim (astronomically unlikely), them too.
First, I'd throw the harpoon and hit the bastard square in the chest and climb up like hell. I'd have to avoid em trying to swat me or swipe me off of him. If he pulls the harpoon out of his chest, I'm gonna jump up and land my sword square over his heart, and use my weight to tear his flesh open so I can see his exposed heart, and I'd dive in and start doing everything I can with my blade and bare hands to butcher and mulch his heart. When he topples over, I'm hoping he lands on his back, because I'm going to have to cut my way out of his back.
BTW, if you DO wind up killing giants like this, I'm voting for showers to be in Skyrim.
