He's actually saying, My horse stands 66 inches high at the shoulder, or 5 feet 6 inches tall.. That's because horses are measured in hands, with each hand equaling 4 inches. Fractions of hands are noted as .1, .2 or .3. Of course, you don't measure a horse literally with your hands. The most common ways of measuring a horse is with a measuring stick or tape.
