How many giants are needed to pull this sleigh?

In my world, there is a race of giants, with an average height of 5 meters. Let's assume that every part of their body is proportional to that of a "normal" human being.

I want these giants to pull a sleigh, and on this sleigh to place a block of iron with the following dimensions: 5 meters (width), 7,5 meters (length) and 10 meters (high). The sleigh would have a design similar to those used by ancient egyptians to move the building blocks of the pyramids. The giants would be placed in front of the sleigh in a fashion similar to that of the cinematic great entrance of Cleopatra in Rome in the "Cleopatra" movie of 1963 (see link). They should be moving the sleigh around on a grassy, earthy, flat terrain.

My question is two-fold:

1. What would the best dimensions be for this sleigh?
2. How many giants would be needed to move this sleigh without getting it stuck?
