How much horsepower does a horse have?

In a quirky and unconventional experiment, Donut Media, in collaboration with Adam Savage, has set out to answer a question that has likely crossed the minds of car enthusiasts and horse lovers alike: How much horsepower does a real horse have? Straying from the usual automotive content, this endeavor combines the worlds of equestrianism and horsepower in a unique scientific exploration.

The concept of horsepower, originally coined by James Watt in the 18th century, is a unit of measurement for power, representing the rate at which work is done. Scientifically, one horsepower is equivalent to approximately 550 foot-pounds per second or 745.7 watts. While this unit is typically associated with engines and machines, Donut Media decided to take it to a whole new level by testing the power of our four-legged friends.
