A number of reasons.
1. The ultimate survivor -
This guy is a dwarf in a time and place where size and skill at arms are hugely respected. However, he does not let it become a weakness and uses his wits to far greater effect than a warrior uses his sword.
2. Terrible childhood -
He has suffered humiliation, ridicule and disdain at the hands of his father due to his deformities and the death of his mother when he was born, when all he wanted was a bit of love and respect.
He was also physically and verbally abused by his sister in his childhood. His brother Jaime is the only person with whom he has had any sort of a close relationship.
3. Cunning but kind -
He is capable of extreme cunning and takes calculated measures against his enemies, but is also capable of sympathy and genuine kindness towards those whom he perceives as helpless or outcasts like himself
4. Heartbroken, but not hopeless -
He has suffered heartbreak of the most terrible form possible, when his father had his wife raped by his entire guard and made them pay her, calling her a prostitute. However, Tyrion doesn't lose his capacity for love as he again falls in love.
5. Experienced, undaunted, witty dude -
This is one person who has been through all kinds of highs and lows in his life, but his spirit remains undaunted, unbroken and fearless.
He has known immense power in his homeland and has also been a bound and chained prisoner in a foreign land. He is regularly taunted and ridiculed due to his size and deformities. He is threatened and beaten up for his sharp, acerbic tongue.
However, none of that ever tames his spirit (or tongue) and he retains a sense of humor throughout, which is pretty darn impressive.
"The Lord of Light wants his enemies burnt. The Drowned God wants his enemies drowned. Why are all the gods such vicious c*nts? Where is the god of t*ts and wine?"
