Also, the "running man" being bigger than a cow and about the same size as a horse...

But what really bugs me is that it simply uses some font it finds on your system, so on my slightly outdated Linux version it only shows about 70% of the emojis. I mean, if there was ever a perfect use case for webfonts, it would be this page...

The average man is taller in height than the average cow and shorter in total height than the average horse.

His cow is about the average total height of a cow at 160cm.

He has an oddly short man though at 165cm / 5'5".

And he says the horse is the same size, but that would be only 16 hands. That would be the withers size of an average horse, but the total height of only a pony.
