What does cob mean in horse size?
Cob just means the horses tail is cut off but not completely. A cob is a body type not a breed. They generally stand between 14.2 and 15.2hh and are of stocky build. Cob types were often used for light haulage and many of them have the general appearance of small draft horses. The practice of cutting off a horses tail is called docking and has largely fallen out of favour as it is a cruel and unneccessary practice. A lot of draft breeds like the Clydesdale have naturally short docks (tail bone) so there is no need to cut it off

What causes a horses tail to break off?
I have been around horses for decades and have yet to see a horses tail "break" off. They can be cut, pulled and scraped off. This is from abuse by humans or other horses, but that is only partial amounts of the tail's hair. Perhaps you could help us a little and explain what you mean by break off? If you meant the tail hair itself then that can be caused from several things. The hair could be brittle due to missing nutrients, being dried out by the sun, or even from excessive shampooing of the tail hair. It would be best to consult with your equine veterinarian about what to do for this.
Does the horse die if you cut his tail?
No, cutting a horse's tail does not result in its death. The tail of a horse is primarily made up of hair and does not contain any vital organs or major blood vessels. However, it is important to note that cutting a horse's tail too short can cause discomfort and potential health issues, such as irritation or infection. It is recommended to consult with a professional equine groomer or veterinarian for proper tail maintenance.
