Talking Long Horses - Extinct. Real Or Myth?

According to.. Some crazy people, there is an extinct breed of horse called "The long horse" which a hugely elongated back and spine. Due to overwork the animals perished young and never repopulated. Real or myth? You decide.

Long Horses... Proof?













I personally do not believe it, and won't until I study a spinal cord, or such. How could this animal support weight? Why hasn't it been spoken of?
I'd like to hear all skeptics, believers, and opinions.
Being a photoshopper this is extremely easy to do with the clone tool. In the "image proof" not one image doesn't have a duplication of whats on the shoulders.


I thought this might be an interesting/different subject for everyone to discuss.

The skelton could have easily been manipulated with regular horse spinal attachments.

^^That is a normal picture in a book I have...some one took it to photoshop!!

PS...look at the horses in the backround...they are normal

They say that this "breed" could hold 4 ppl...I am sorry but a horse that long back would break plain and simple!!
