I came to find out if it was doable. For my low-mod spriest lvl 73, it showed 1446k hp. It CAN be feared and I was able to take it down without too much trouble.
It's up on a ledge that is accessible (i.e. not out of "reach" from the bottom).

Updating my previous post: So as a Demonology Warlock, I was able to put my pets on passive, then I Shadow Bolted to get him to come down off the ledge. I tried to Fear him (while he was up on the ledge), but he was unaffected.
