My colleague here at work, have met this guy

He's supposedly in Guiness for the tallest horse presently alive!!!!

He is gorgeous!!!!

big horses like that are usually really comfy to ride i bet his canter is like sitting on a giant rocking horse
i have ridden an 18hh shire and she was a bit slow to get moving but had a nice way of cruising along very relaxing

I seen it what a beaut the lady on the back was like a dwarf on him, he was mid canter in the picture in the papers looked effortless for such a big animal.

When I lived on Islay I used to go to a local B & B as my aunt worked there and the owner kept about 20 horses they had a few Clydesdales that used to take part in the show each year in all the old fashioned set up. Beautiful animals. They were some of the biggest I have seen. The tallest horse I ever saw was at stables and it was called treacle it was a beautiful big horse around 19hh. The tallest horse I have ridden is 17hh and that is more than big enough for me (5ft tall ).

think of the pain if it stood on your foot ,its sore enough a normal horse standing on your foot but the weight of that one on you foot

Ouch!!!!

The worst pain I have ever felt was when I was bitten by a large ex hunting horse, he was an enormous Irish Draught X TB I got between him and his feed and came out worse for it. He caught the very top of my arm and it HURT bad. I still have a scar to this day.

Ooh ... that is sore!!! I once got bitten by a naughty little pony, Daisy (anything but). She had absolutely no reason to bite me either, I was walking her back to her Stable. She just turned around and bit my stomach, took a good chunk out too. Still cant have anyone touch my stomach

yes it must be like an armchair I saw him lovely and a big softy by all accounts
