  • Вот это - богатырские кони!

  • i would get dizzy doing this ... miss my perch <3

  • yeah the back ones are percherons!

  • Ive been thinking and now that I thought about it I wished someone would have created a simple generator and battery set up where you could hook a couple of these massive horses up to it and have them turn your electricity for you. Wouldve been easier than reeling on something that runs on gas or propane or diesel for electricity

  • Beautiful powerful horses!

  • awesome more people should see this and maybe they would have alot more appreciation for the horse

  • Gives you a real appreciation of electricity. A 10 hp motor would easily fit in your hand, a fraction of the size of these animals.

    But it does get my mind to racing as to what else these horses could power? I'm thinking of all kinds of 19th century appliances I could have invented.

    Thanks for posting!

  • thumbs up for 2:17

  • @stimulater7 Possibly a Percheron, that's just my guess though, not too sure about it.

  • what breed  is the team of black horses ?

    big frame short legs ??
