In the 1930s, a Belgian stallion by the name of Brooklyn Supreme became know as the world's largest horse at 19.2 hands and 3,200 pounds. He boasted a girth of 10 feet two inches around. It took 30 inches of iron for each one of his horseshoes.

The tallest documented horse was a shire gelding named Samson. He was 21.2 1/2 hands tall, and weighed 3,360 pounds. He was bred by Thomas Cleaver of Toddington Mills, England, and was foaled in 1846

I found on the net that a horse named Goliath is in the Guiness book for the tallest horse, however NO ONE SAYS EXACTLY HOW TALL HE WAS.......URGHGHGHGH. Sadly Goliath died July, 20 2001.
Here (if I am successful is a pic)

Well, the thing is that I know the horse on the picture I posted was named Samson, and I highly doubt they both would be named the same thing... Been a hectic day today so I haven't had time to look it up yet :(
Oh and yeah, those Falabellas are cute :)
