From drudgereport.com:
"Radar, the Belgian draft horse is a gentle giant.
He's also the world's tallest living horse and he made a huge impression on people who came to see him this week in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Last year Radar made it into the Guinness Book of Records with an impressive height of 19 hands, 3 1/2 inches tall, or 6 feet seven and a half inches (2.02m) from hoof to shoulder.
The nine-year-old gelding's height is even greater when you include Radar's massive long neck and large head.
He weights in a hefty 2,400 pounds (1059 kilos) and keeps in shape by consuming 18 pounds (8.1 kilos) of grain, 40 pounds (18.1 kilos) of hay and drinking 20 gallons (75 litres) of water every day.
He also has a busy show schedule.
Radar spends a good deal of time on the road travelling to events around the US.
There was no word on what specialty items are outfitted in his horse trailer."
