How to explain Jackson Pollock paintings to a dead hare horse

How did I miss this episode of Mythbusters??

I got 99 uses for a dead horse but "beating it" ain't one of them.

African or European?

Apparently, you cannot beat a dead horse to the bottom of a mine shaft, however deep.

Yes you can beat a pony to the bottom of a mineshaft, you would just have to be very streamlined, or in an aerodynamic fairing. The only time you cannot beat a pony to the bottom of a mine shaft would be if the mineshaft were empty of air, in which case you could manage at least a tie.

Yes you can beat a pony to the bottom of a mineshaft, you would just have to hold on tightly with the non-beating appendages.

Ah yes, the slightly less well-known Schrödinger's pony. A lot of people don't know he used pit ponies and wells first. Cats in boxes require much less cleanup.

Speaking of Schroedinger, imagine how his family must have come to hate $mas. Every year the same thing: "Box May Contain Present".
