That is an atrocious video. 5.7hp from a light draft horse is what they got. Based on setup I’m not sure their measurement is appropriately applicable to a “max” horsepower of a horse but it does seem that the horsepower of a horse could be lower than thought. The use of a light draft horse instead of a heavy draft horse is also questionable.
Actually the maximum output of a horse is around 15 horsepower.
So horses are just tiny horses in a trenchcoat?
About that…
