A horse that keeps getting longer as you scroll.

Your verdict:

Endless Horse is an ASCII-art horse with a very long run of o's in its name, and the longer you scroll, the more horse you get. The page is a perfect example of a joke that commits fully: it does not stop being a horse, and it does not stop getting longer.

There is nothing to click and nothing to read beyond the horse. You scroll, and the body keeps going. The humor is in the sheer length, and in the fact that someone decided this was a thing worth making and putting on the web.

One practical note: the site only works over plain HTTP. Its HTTPS certificate does not match the host name, so if you type https:// your browser will warn you and you should use the http:// address instead. That is a quirk of the site rather than a sign of anything worse, but it is worth knowing.

Tips for getting the most out of it

  • Use the http:// address, since https:// triggers a certificate warning.
  • Scroll with your mouse wheel or a swipe.
  • Do not expect an ending.

Questions about Endless Horse

What is Endless Horse?

It is a one-joke website that shows an ASCII horse whose body gets longer as you scroll. The humor comes from how far the page goes. You can find it at endless.horse, and odd-sites.com lists it as a quick thirty-second visit. We have not confirmed how it behaves on phones, so a computer is the safer choice.

Why does Endless Horse show a security warning?

When we checked, the site's HTTPS certificate did not match its host name, so the site only loads over plain HTTP at http://endless.horse. Browsers warn on https for that reason. Avoid entering personal information on any site over HTTP. We check the link daily, so you can see whether it is still alive.
