Another element which is not so obvious in the movie, but clearer in the books, is that the Hobbits have a particular resistance to the rings. Gollum possessed the ring for hundreds of years and was not consumed (in the Nazgul sense). In the book, it notes that Frodo is becoming like a bottle of light as he resists the effects of the Morgul blade that strikes him at Weathertop. They note that any other creature would have succumbed long before.
