The largest horse that has ever been documented was a Shire Gelding born in 1846 named Sampson . When measured in 1850 he stood at 21.2 1/2 hands ( a hand is 4 inches ) and weighed 3,360 lbs. That means that Sampson was 7ft 2 1/2 inches tall at his withers ( the point where the mane ends on most horses ) and 1 1/2 tons - about the same weight as a minivan. The largest horse alive today, measuring 20 hands 2 3/4 inches and weighing 2,600 lbs., is a Belgian Gelding by the name of Big Jake.
