    “exceeds human performance” … in crushing whatever it is gripping, right?

      It’s such a weird phrasing. They make it sound like you can give it nails and a hammer and it can frame a house better than a human.

        When I was taking classes on similar things, ‘human performance’ was generally defined as how well an expert in a given task performed.

            I mean like we don’t pull carriages with even our top athletes but we will with a runt of the litter horse.

              No you absolutely do not! You never put more than half the weight of the horse on it’s back. I just recently went riding and since I’m not a fucking lardass I got to ride a good horse.

              Movies and TV are not real life.

                carriages can be of all types of sizes you know but if a humans pulling it we call it a rickshaw and we would never attach a horse to it because it could not handle its power.
