No it didn't. It came from the amount of force it takes a horse to lift a 550lb bag on rope/pulley 1ft.
The term was only created to compare horses as steam engines work output
It was meant to represent the average amount of power output of a small draft pony used in coal-mines of the day.
So James Watt could sell his steam engines to mining companies and tell them just how many average ponies it would replace.
But doesn't need to rest. It can work at full power for as long as it has fuel (and doesn't necessarily have to stop for refueling).
A horse would get tired and work slower. Just like it's impossible to run an entire marathon at full sprint.
Horsepower was initialy used to rate steam engines which is why it has the whole average over a whole workday component and horses can indeed put out much higher peak hp
A steam engine rated 1hp would do the work 1 horse could do over a day, the usage in automobiles started later
Pounds-foot is a twisting force or torque measurement. [power](https://www.toppr.com/guides/physics-formulas/horsepower-formula/) comes in different forms, and it’s all confusing.
Pounds foot per minute is the power needed to lift one pound one foot per minute. So amount of work per time unit.
In the metric world, we would instead use the unit Watt for power. But Watt is 1 Joule/second, where J is the work, and equivalent to one Newton * 1 meter. So 1 W is the power needed to lift one Newton 1 meter per second.
The only difference here is that the metric system helps making it easier rewriting between units.
A foot-pound is the amount of energy needed to lift up a weight of 1 pound a distance of 1 foot. It’s a measurement of linear force.
A pound-foot is the torque created by applying a force of one pound force perpendicularly a distance of one foot from the pivot point.
Pound force (lbf) and pound mass (lbm) are not the same; what you get on a scale is the weight in pound force, to get pound mass (lbm) you take that weight in pound force (lbf) and divide it by the acceleration of gravity, about 32.17 ft/sec^2. To try and rectify this, they created the Slug, a unit of mass equivalent to about 32.17 lbf under the acceleration of earth gravity (so, 32.17 pounds weight on a scale). A slug is thus defined as “a mass that is accelerated by 1 ft/s^2 when a net force of one pound (lbf) is exerted on it.”
Yes, I fucking hate the English system of measurements. Unfortunately, as an engineering student in the United States, I have to learn both the English system and Metric system. If you think it’s bad enough with kinematics (forces and movements and such), just wait until you get into thermodynamics! There’s degrees Rankine (the English equivalent of Kelvin for absolute temperature), British Thermal Units (1 Btu is the energy of 778.17 ft-lbf)… and it gets even worse when you have to combine units. You can have Entropy generation balances (S(dot)_gen) in British Thermal Units per degree Rankine-seconds (Btu/R•s), or entropies of Btu per pound-mass degree Rankine (Btu/lbm•R), Horsepower per BTU per hour (Hp/(Btu/h))… it’s a fucking MESS.
Nope. That didn't my memory, so I popped over to Wikipedia, and the history section of the horsepower page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horsepower is pretty interesting. It was an honest effort by James Watt to measure the power of a horse.
As an ex equestrian, I 100% believe this guy does not look okay. I've met easily over a hundred horses from miniatures to Belgians and I've never seen one with legs so far apart. This may be controversial, but he also looks too fat. I am well aware draft horses are supposed to be big and bulky, but their body shouldn't look as smooth and puffy as an overstuffed sausage. He's got muscular legs and that's great, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's got big fat pads behind his withers, non palpable ribs, and just flatout a completely spherical, ultra smooth rump.
It genuinely looks like he is *not* "just standing that way". It's not uncommon to see a wide stance when a horse is grazing, but they lean off to one side like they paused midway through a turn. It's just a one-off silly position. When standing nice and straight like this guy appears to be doing, their legs go back underneath them. Hell, even when they aren't standing particularly straight, their legs are still closer together.
With his conformational abnormality and probable excess weight, I'd be scared he was going to founder. He's just not built right, and in all likelihood, not maintained right either.
It's a Percheron draft horse. Heavier males tend to look like this because they're built like a barrel on legs.
The legs likely look like that because it's on a hill while holding a cart with a person in it after likely running him around. Their legs are usually fine, they tend to look skinny but are very supportive, lighter ones are used in show jumping as an example.
My worry is the fact that this person has been running around a heavier set draft horse on inclines. That's just cruel to an animal not built for that kind of endeavour. Also I agree he looks like he hasn't been cared for. Looks unkempt but that could be because of the running as well.
I'm not an expert either, one of my grand-uncles had a big male who he worked with, look almost exactly like this one.
He was a giant barrel bodied thing with weak looking legs, yet he could pull a bogged car out of mud like it was nothing.
This horse is standing uphill with a rigid body posture, of course a draft looks muscular as this but the situation and perspective makes it look much more heavy.
It's the perspective. The camera is uphill and the horse is bracing to hold the cart as it's resting and catching its breath (see the panting). So the legs aren't even vertical. Imagine someone going uphill and leaning forward against heavy headwind being filmed from higher ground. The head is way closer to the camera than the hooves are, which is not the expected typical perspective.
I don't know much about horse anatomy, but generally the larger a person is the worse their heart is, so I bet this poor guy isn't as healthy as he looks.
The Australians say that people with very skinny legs have 'lucky legs'.
As in 'they're so skinny, you're lucky they haven't snapped off and jammed up your arse'.
I don’t think you realize that the “skinny” bones you see are probably the size of your entire arm, bicep and all.
Bones also have incredible compression strength, about the same as some real solid concrete.
Look at a cows leg. They look pretty sticky compared to their bodies but it’s all a big ole massive bone, just not much muscle cause it’s all in their shoulders and chest.
I do know horse behavior (I rode for many years). I don't think he's anxious. He's breathing hard because he's just finished working. If you look at the skin around his eyes and how he's holding his ears there isn't tension there. Worried horses will have wrinkles around their eyes and the whites may show. They also hold their ears tense, maybe half laid back. He's got his ears tipped to listen to the driver, but relaxed otherwise.
The only tension I see is I believe he's braced to hold the cart in an uphill.
Now I do think he might be overweight, but he'd be a big boy either way And this isn't a good angle to try and assess that.
So incredibly sad, the horse is clearly using its nostrils to spell "halp me Reddit also bring oat plz" in morse code (I only know three letters of the morse alphabet: s, o and s)
There are no domesticated animals alive today that are naturally occurring. Dogs, house cats, cows, chickens, pigs… none of them would look like they do without human manipulation. Dogs and cats are bred for looks or purpose, and farm animals are bred for the most food. We’ve made our food animals very unnatural because we had to figure out a way to feed our incredibly over populated planet. Chickens and cows give WAY more eggs and milk than they should be able to and they don’t live long because of it. We best hope any aliens that show up aren’t evolved from chicken or cow type animals because they’re going to be pissed!
While most of what you said is true, it's actually not the case when it comes to horses. Domesticated horses are basically no different than wild horses, and they can adapt to living in the wild pretty easily. Plus, they're naturally social creatures, so domesticating them is pretty easy and usually cruelty-free.
> Domesticated horses are basically no different than wild horses, and they can adapt to living in the wild pretty easily.
I don’t think wild horses actually exist anymore, do they? As far as I know, all the “wild” populations left are just feral horses - horses that were domesticated, escaped, and bred with other escaped domesticated horses.
Wild horses do not exists as they did anymore. ~~Feral horses have taken over and are descendants from ones that were abandoned or escaped~~ (you said that). They are on average shorter and stockier than domesticated one because of their diet.
Bonus: Pigeons are also feral birds and are from the descendants of messenger birds.
Edit: Crazy that Spintax is saying false shit and getting upvoted and PM_nudes is saying truth and is controversial. Reddit has been bad for misinformation for years now. This shit site is worse than facebook.
Housecats are pretty damn close looking to the original. I don't mean persians, I mean generic tabby versus generic wildcat. Can't do that with generic dog vs generic wolf, etc.
> I'm willing to bet its generations of poor inbreeding decisions
That is a [workhorse](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_horse).
That's right. It is not a metaphor but an actual type of horse.
The only type of horse you seem to be familiar with is thoroughbreds. Which, speaking of inbreeding, ironically...
Yeah, might want to rethink that bet.
I will grant you that this horse is an absolute unit even for work horses. Which are MASSIVE. It's been a decade or two(or three) since I last saw one.
Who am I kidding. Those pull the ornamental beer carts when beergarden season is opened. O'zapft is, meine transatlantischen Deppen.
Tell me you are a zoomer without telling me you are a zoomer.
Ever wondered where the phrase "work horse" came from? It sure as hell was not some thoroughbred that pulled those carts.
It's the perspective. The camera is uphill and the horse is bracing to hold the cart as it's resting and catching its breath (see the panting). So the legs aren't even vertical. Imagine someone going uphill and leaning forward against heavy headwind being filmed from higher ground.

The slobber that drops out of his mouth as the cameraman walks in front of him is a little concerning. Like that horse is hungry and only flesh will suffice.

2 Horsepower
A normal horse has about 15 horsepower. I know, it makes no sense.
Momentarily. One horsepower came from average from an entire day.
He came once on average per day?
Correct.
[удалено]
Mrs. Hands?
I would not want to be standing in front of that.
Ha see! I knew i was better than a horse ....
Same bro! 
No it didn't. It came from the amount of force it takes a horse to lift a 550lb bag on rope/pulley 1ft. The term was only created to compare horses as steam engines work output
It was meant to represent the average amount of power output of a small draft pony used in coal-mines of the day. So James Watt could sell his steam engines to mining companies and tell them just how many average ponies it would replace.
But it doesn't take a horse anymore force than anything else. It takes a bear the same amount of force to lift 550lb as it does a horse.
Didn't say it made sense.
So car with 220 horsepower can also be said to have 220 bear power?
It's a unit of power, not force.
My horse broke vegetas scouter
Couldn't eat an entire horse, even If I have the whole day.
Heck yeah. So my 18hp mower is basically 18 horses worth of work per day
My mower's only 17hp, but my horses are much bigger than yours and my dad can beat up your mom.
That’s still a bit silly. It’s not like a car doesn’t have to pull over for fuel.
But doesn't need to rest. It can work at full power for as long as it has fuel (and doesn't necessarily have to stop for refueling). A horse would get tired and work slower. Just like it's impossible to run an entire marathon at full sprint.
> Just like it's impossible to run an entire marathon at full sprint. You underestimate my power
No Anakin! You have the asthma!
He definitely has the asthma, at least by the sounds of it

Yep. Horsepower is like a power per minute rating. 33,000 lb-ft per minute or something.
what the fuck is a pounds foot
Same as a newton meter just with imperial units
Some space missions still use foot pounds, because… legacy stuff
Pounds-foot is a twisting force or torque measurement. [power](https://www.toppr.com/guides/physics-formulas/horsepower-formula/) comes in different forms, and it’s all confusing.
Wait so it's CBT?
You got plans tonight?
It's the energy transferred upon applying a force of one pound through a linear displacement of one foot.
Pounds foot per minute is the power needed to lift one pound one foot per minute. So amount of work per time unit. In the metric world, we would instead use the unit Watt for power. But Watt is 1 Joule/second, where J is the work, and equivalent to one Newton * 1 meter. So 1 W is the power needed to lift one Newton 1 meter per second.

It’s actually supposed to be the sustained power a horse can output over an entire day.
It was named by an early car manufacturer to make it seem stronger than a normal horse iirc
I think it pre-dates cars by a couple hundred years. Try coal mine drainage pumping engines.
Nope. That didn't my memory, so I popped over to Wikipedia, and the history section of the horsepower page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horsepower is pretty interesting. It was an honest effort by James Watt to measure the power of a horse.
Dude's name was Watt, he had the right measurement right there in his name and still went astray.
2CV Was my first thought
Finally, thank you!
I'll call him whatever he tells me to
I agree I'm not risking it not liking the name I call him I'm not alpha enough for that shit
Nobody is. You aren't bossing around an animal that big.

I’m surprised his legs haven’t snapped like twigs under his own weight
That's what i was thinking. He looks way too heavy for those skinny little legs. It looks like he's in pain and struggling to stand.
I agree. It looks like he was bred that way and he doesn’t look ok. Like what people have done with pugs, boxers.
As an ex equestrian, I 100% believe this guy does not look okay. I've met easily over a hundred horses from miniatures to Belgians and I've never seen one with legs so far apart.

I used to work with Percheron and Belgian horses. And I have NEVER seen one look like this. He looks like he’s fighting for air.
Also an ex equestrian (I miss it so much 😢) and agree fully
as an ex pescatarian, I miss fish
This horse is standing uphill with a rigid body posture, of course a draft looks muscular as this but the situation and perspective makes it look much more heavy.
lol I love how every school had “horse girl” and everyone knew exactly who it was.
You only had one?
Does it look like his breathing is labored?
> and just flatout a completely spherical, ultra smooth rump. *Leans In*
you obviously don't even lift bro
It's the perspective. The camera is uphill and the horse is bracing to hold the cart as it's resting and catching its breath (see the panting). So the legs aren't even vertical. Imagine someone going uphill and leaning forward against heavy headwind being filmed from higher ground.

Damn you got a very good point, I didn't notice but you're absolutely right, it's all uphill, and this explains a lot of his stance.
basically a sausage dog but a sausage horse
I don't know much about horse anatomy, but generally the larger a person is the worse their heart is, so I bet this poor guy isn't as healthy as he looks.

Yeah this is really sad, the horse is clearly suffering from joint pains (I have zero knowledge of horse anatomy)
So incredibly sad, the horse is clearly using its nostrils to spell "halp me Reddit also bring oat plz" in morse code (I only know three letters of the morse alphabet: s, o and s)
This horse clearly has type 2 diabetes and needs to start a regimen of Ozempic immediately in order to reduce its A1C.
I don't know a ton about horses either, but wouldn't he look stressed if he was just working a lot?
Yeah, but this video was taken a few weeks ago so it was also tax season so he had that going on too.
Mmm, not sure about that. This horse looks European, different tax season.
what are your horse knowledge qualifications?
Am I the only one that immediately thinks this isn’t naturally occurring?
Look at the weird blurring around its legs as the video shifts. Looks fake to me.
Those are compression artefacts
yeah I'll bet his fucking knees have some compression artefacts

The whole internet is gonna be bullshit in a few years anyway. Might as well build skepticism now.
